Although they all come from different manufacturers, if you were to ever park them side by side, all share the similar body shape; gone are the days where large sedans like these look like bricks and are as exciting as a plastic ruler. Now, they all look shapelier with beautiful (woah I actually said that) lines and curves. In fact, calling them sophisticated isn’t wrong as well.

Value Up | Peugeot 508 Allure

IN Peugeot, 508, Allure, Peugeot 508, Peugeot 508 Allure, What The Pug Say, AutoFrance

Peugeot’s 508 sedan gets some midlife update to keep it relevant – lets see whether this one will share the same success story as its predecessor


We start off with one of the cars most eagerly anticipated by the average enthusiast, something that mere mortals can actually afford - the new Honda Civic Type R. When the previous-generation FD and FN Civic Type Rs ended production in 2011 due to tightening emissions regulations, we weren't sure if we'd see another zingy, righ-revving Honda Type R again. Sadly, we won't. But luckily, instead of throwing in the towel, Honda has adapted with the times, and decided to turbocharge the Civic Type R, making it cleaner and meaner in the process. How much meaner exactly? Well, how does outputs of 306 bhp and 400 Nm @ 2500 rpm, a top speed of 270 km/h, 0-100 km/h in 5.7s and Nurburgring FWD record time of 7m 50.6s sound to you? Certainly puts the 'hot' in hot hatch for us!

Highlights of the Geneva Motor Show 2015 (Part 1)

IN Geneva, Motor, Show, 2015, Geneva Motorshow,

Well, it's that time of the year again when major car companies pull out all the stops and bring their A-game to Switzerland for the Geneva Motor Show. This is our two-part special


Well there are other family hatchbacks available out there you can park your money at, namely the Ford Focus, Mazda 3, Opel Astra, Renault Megane, Chevrolet Cruze, Toyota Auris and BMW 116i even. Heck if you want something unconventional, you could even consider the new 5-door Mini. But Singaporeans have spoken and their choice, it seems, is still the Golf; like how the Corolla Altis is the ultimate choice if you’re looking for a family sedan.

A Hole In One? | Peugeot 308 1.2 Allure

IN Peugeot, Pug, 308, 2015 Peugeot 308, Petrol, 308 Allure, What The Pug Say, 1.2 Turbo, Turbocharged

Peugeot’s Golf competitor arrives in its latest guise with one aim only – to take the crown as the best family hatchback


What makes it even more significant locally is that the E-class is the bread-and-butter of a range that’s topping the charts of a shrinking new car market. That success isn’t likely to stop soon, based on what we’ve seen of this new, facelifted version.

E Stands For Evolution

IN Mercedes-Benz, Mercedes, E-class, Wagon, Launch, E200, E250

It's a strange country we live in, where Mercedes is the best-selling brand, ahead of all the ordinary car makers. And this, the E-class is its most important model.


The conceptual harmony characteristic of M Automobiles also incorporates the specific features of the two models’ body structures. The new BMW M6 Coupe has a dynamically contoured, lightweight roof made from carbon fibre-reinforced plastic.

BMW M6 Coupe & Cabriolet Break Cover!

IN BMW, BMW Asia, M, M6, Coupe, Convertible

Mixing luxury and sports in one potent cocktail, is the new BMW M6 Coupe and BMW M6 Convertible. both will use the company's 560 bhp V8 powerplants.


First, we look at the 508's hungry pride mates with gaping grilles - that design highlight that seem so synonymous with Peugeot is gone. If you keep staring at it hard enough, you can also see the similarities of this new car to the older 406. We feel that the 508 has pretty “restrained” looks, which does make it a good-looking car.
