With the latest 5 Series being unveiled recently, we were secretly expecting BMW M to come along not too long thereafter with their hotted up M5. And BOY didn't they disappoint, because word from the good folks at M is that there will be an M5 Touring alongside its sedan sibling, both of which are under development. Just like its sedan sibling, the M5 Touring will feature a completely new partially electrified drivetrain to meet emissions compliance. This is, of course, a stepping stone toward complete electrification.

Category A COE cars are all the rage these days in Singapore. With soaring petrol prices and astronomical COE premiums, these wallet-friendly city runabouts are just the sort of thing a budget-conscious buyer wants - practical, fuel-efficient, and versatile. For those of you reading outside of Singapore, here’s how we classify Cat A vehicles being registered here: - Non-fully electric cars with engines up to 1,600cc and Maximum Power Output up to 97kW (130bhp). - Fully electric cars with Maximum Power Output of up to 110kW (147bhp). However, as we can see from the figures above, in traditional cases owning a Cat A vehicle means sacrificing performance and oftentimes driving fun in exchange for a cheaper set of wheels. But, with the advent and advancement in new engine technology alongside innovations like electrical assistance, engine capacity is no longer the defacto indicator of performance.

It’s beginning to feel like the world has forgotten how to make anything but SUVs these days, and Maserati is actually fairly late to the game with its contender. Yes, they did launch the Levante back in 2016, but lacklustre sales didn’t make it a case-closed preposition. So back to the drawing board they went, and out came the Grecale - a mid-sized, luxury SUV that sits a tier below the larger Levante. Think Porsche Macan, Alfa Romeo Stelvio kinda frequency. The Grecale, as Maserati calls it, is intended to be a ‘global’ car that’s designed to excel in lots of different markets without significant over-engineering. So, have they nailed this one out of the gate? Stealth wealth

SUVs have seen a huge market shift in recent years. What was once a tool that can traverse harsh terrains without breaking a sweat has now transformed into city-dwelling 'Chelsea Tractors' that disintegrate at the first sign of anything other than tarmac. There is still a rare bunch of SUVs that can scale a rock face at your earliest convenience, but most of the crop have since become jacked-up people carriers festooned with new tech and creature comforts. They might not be good offroad, but consumers are opening their wallets in droves to drive off the lot in the latest and greatest in tall luxury. So what if you wanted both? Well, the obvious choice would be to get something like a Range Rover or G-Wagon, but what if you wanted something patriotic? Well my friends, let me introduce you to Jeep’s all-new Grand Cherokee.

Give automotive fans an opportunity to speak, and they are always eager to debate on which sports cars they think are the greatest and most attractive. Of course, with a seemingly endless number of cars that have been produced over the better part of a century, there are a plethora of memorable vehicles that will be tossed up in discussion. Even so, one car pretty much gets namedropped at every conversation, bearing the numbers 9-1-1. Since its inception in 1963, this iconic machine is widely regarded as the pinnacle of the sports car world and has been a tour de force ever since. Whether you agree with it or not, there is no denying that Porsche has made the quintessential sports car, and there are good reasons to believe that. The question, then, is how exactly has this remarkable machine managed to remain the preeminent sports car for over half a century? Engine’s Out Back Honey

This is also the first time the Philippine national anthem, Bayang Magiliw, was played during a professional podium ceremony. 18-year-old Bianca, racing in the #16 PREMA, had an exceptional weekend in Valencia, showcasing her impressive skills and determination. Bustamante began her weekend with excellent performances in both Free Practice sessions and continued her form into Qualifying, setting faster lap times each time around the 4km Grand Prix circuit. However, despite securing P2 and P5 in both race grid-setting sessions respectively, she was later classified P8 in Q1 and P13 in Q2 due to post-session lap time deletions caused by track limit infringements.

And now, 21 years later, the Cayenne is now in its third generation. Hard to imagine now, but when the car was introduced to the world back in 2002, it went down like a cup of cold sick. No one had anticipated such a big and lumbering performance vehicle to appear in the Porsche range, which was always well-known for its light and agile sports cars. But, since then the world has caught the SUV bug, and this viral disease has more or less swept through every automaker there is. Everyone is doing SUVs these days, and the Cayenne took the hits so that everyone else could cash in later. This is the model that pays all the bills, and if it means we get to keep fun performance models like the 911 away from the butcher’s knife for a little bit longer, then pragmatically speaking I’m all for it. Does it drive like a Porsche though?
