Possibly the most elaborate motor show we have seen in recent years. This years Malaysia Autoshow, taking place from the 22nd – 26th of May from 10am – 10pm, saw the launch of not one or two but SEVERAL new cars and bikes. The media day yesterday saw us spending 12 hours at the show and we still feel like there\u2019s more to see. So we want to help you optimise your time at the show. Which is why we have come up with the top 10 must see attractions at this years Malaysia Autoshow.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

We knew this was an eventuality, but to see one in the flesh gave us a different kind of goosebump. We knew this chassis was awesome, but to see it in the flesh was something else. As some of our colleagues and us believe, it could see the rise in the tuning trend for Proton\u2019s hottest selling sedan. Plus we cant wait to see this car set loose on Sepang.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Perodua\u2019s barely spending anything on marketing these days, and why should they their cars are selling like hot cakes. Like the Alza we had recently tested is a genuinely good product for its segment. But it\u2019s their EV that caught our attention, where they are promising to maintain the value of their EV. This alleged ecosystem is what we are interested in, it will be good to watch this space.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

BMW had a busy booth this time, launching several cars and bikes at the same time, including the all new Mini Cooper and Countryman. But the highlight for us is the return of the petrol powered 5 series in the form of the 520i. While our initial post on this car attracted mixed reviews, we have a feeling that this would be a top seller for BMW this year.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

On the two wheel side the gold standard of adventure bikes, the BMW GS1300 saw its debut. For those who know, there\u2019s nothing more to elaborate here, cause you know how significant this bike is.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The MASSIVE Cybertruck takes centre stage, along with the entire range of Tesla vehicles that are available for the Malaysian market. But what\u2019s cool is the light show that\u2019s programmed to automatically take place every hour at the event.

Sitting under the Tan Chong group, the GAC Brand\u2019s Aion Y is an EV which we feel has tremendous potential. Their claim is the bulletproof magazine battery tech. But its the packaging of the vehicle with its fully flat folding seats and genuinely practical price tag, performance and range that we feel would make this a strong contender. The interior seats can fold completely flat which will make your recharging time a whole lot more productive.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Its a name that started off with a bang just to end abruptly. But now its back and its slated to be better than ever. The Citroen C3 Aircross should be making its return to the Malaysian market soon. Also present there was a cool little off road buggy. Its electric powered with light bars and all terrain tires. But more importantly there\u2019s a MANUAL HANDBRAKE. How much fun is it going to be on muddy fields?<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Speaking of Mud, you have an off road experience using the Peugeot Landtrek. Peugeot Malaysia actually constructed a purpose built track to show what the Landtrek can actually do. This is something we encourage everyone to experience, to know what a pickup truck can actually do straight from the showroom floor. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

They have taken an entire hall and all the bikes might seem similar to you. This is because MForce you have Benelli, Brixton, SYM, WMoto, QJMotor and many more. These bikes look and sometimes feature hardware from other brands from Europe and Japan, without the premium price tag. The one that caught our attention was the QJMotor sports bike that, allegedly, features the mechanicals from an MV Augusta.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
