• Proton Saga FLX SE Launched in Malaysia

     

    The new Proton Saga FLX SE is now available to view at all Proton Showrooms in Malaysia. The new Saga variant, the Saga FLX SE is powered by a 1.6 litre Campro IAFM engine and available only with CVT automatic transmission.

     

     

    The combination of the 1.6-litre Campro IAFM engine with the CVT automatic transmission delivers better torque, four percent better acceleration, and reduces fuel consumption by an additional four percent compared to the current 1.6-litre Saga.

     

    Priced RM2,900 above the current selling 1.6-litre automatic Saga FL, the Saga FLX SE features eight and three exterior and interior changes. The car is fitted with 15” inch alloy wheels, an all round factory-fitted body kit, fog lamps and smoked finishing rear lights. The cabin is trimmed in leather which comprises the seats, steering wheel, door ornament, parking brake and gearshift lever.

     

    Available in two colour choices, Solid White and Fire Red. Lastly, the Saga FLX SE comes with a three-year or 100,000km warranty (whichever comes first).

  • Most Expensive Road Accident in Japan Involved 8 Ferraris

    17 Supercar crash in Japan

     

    14 cars including Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Mercedes involved in crash believed to be Japan’s most expensive ever road accident that cost up to US$ 4 million.

     

    The multimillion-dollar road accident occurred on the Chugoku expressway in Shimonoseki, south-western Japan.  According to the police, a pack of about 20 supercars was travelling in convoy on Sunday morning. However, the driver of one of the Ferraris tried to change lanes and hit a barrier on the rain-soaked road. The driver spun across the motorway and the other cars collided while trying to avoid hitting his car. The debris was spread over about 400 metres of the motorway.

     

    The speed limit on that section of the highway was 80km/h. However, an unidentified male witness told the TBS network: “A group of cars was doing 140-160km/h. One of them spun and they all ended up in this great mess.”

     

    There is no official statement on the total cost of damage but some of the vehicles were beyond fix. God bless that no one was seriously injured but only some minor cuts and bruises.

  • Toyota Australia Confirmed Next-generation Camry Hybrid and Aurion for 2012

    It is the fourth victory for Toyota’s Corolla in Australia to be the best-selling vehicle last month.

    The popularity of Corolla helped push Toyota sales beyond 17,400 for the month – a margin of more than 7,600 ahead of its nearest rival. Toyota now has an overall lead this year of more than 50,000 sales over any other company.

     

    Most importantly, Toyota Australia also announced that the current generation of Camry is in run-out ahead of a new-model launch, which will be followed in the New Year by next-generation Camry Hybrid and Aurion.

     

    I am excited to see the car officially. Anyway, do expect the Toyota’s Aurion will be the same model as the upcoming local assembled 2012 Toyota Camry in Malaysia.
