The Lexus CT 200H Hybrid Review

Car : Lexus CT200h
Category : Hybrid
Price : From Rm1q72,600 OTR

Hybrid cars seem to be the in thing now especially the constant hike in petrol prices. Toyota with its Prius and Honda successfully launched their Insight with popular demand. Now, we look at the luxury section of the hybrid category by Lexus. The new CT-200h 4 doors hatchback. 

The blue colour inside the logo symbolize the hybrid energy that run on this vehicle. This vehicle comes with daylight LED located inside the headlamps.

The rear design I feel may have some Toyota Caldina feeling of sportiness. What do you think?

The rear diffuser under the rear bumper part of the aerodynamic that allowed this vehicle to run at 33km/liter. A slightly higher consumption than the Prius that claimed to run at around 40km/liter

The interior is a killer. First of all the all black approach which is to my preference and also the luxury feeling of high quality leather finishing. Love it.

The interior similar to a fighter plane cockpit. High tech stuff.

The blue or red colour indicator on top of the speedometer will indicate the driving situation whether in fuel saving or power mode. A cool function for drivers.

The New 2011 Perodua Myvi Review

Car : The New 2011 Perodua Myvi
Location : Perodua USJ Taipan Showroom
Price OTR from Rm43,900 to Rm57,400

From far the new perodua Myvi don't seem much different from the old production.

First visible difference is that the headlamps not as sharp as the old version and the projector light comes standard.

The side mirror signal indicator seem to follow the volkwagen design that placed at the bottom of the mirror.

Not much difference at the rear.

The new myvi dashboard similar to the alza.

Well much improved than the old version 

A two tone interior colour scheme. This is the standard version and the premium version do come with the whole black interior scheme.

The premium version will come with bodykit and spoiler. However the premium version will not come cheap at  Rm57,400. For that price, in my opinion the 1.5 litre Alza will be a better choice.

The New Kia Sportage Review

Location : Puchong Naza Kia Showroom
Car : New 2011 Kia Sprtage
Price : OTR From Rm138,888.


Being quite a while never blog about cars and other things. Anyway, the car market is hotting up with 2 new launches which are the New Perodua Myvi and the awaited 2011 Kia Sportage.

This lovely banner caught my eye while I walking up the stairs to the showroom. The orange colour Kia Sportage really stand out. 

Like the banner wrote "Impressive". The new design concept from Kia bring freshness to the car industry and got the European styling look.

I like the chrome door handle. A standard now for Korean cars but Japanese and European cars not really into this styling.

The dashboard look reasonable. Equipped with dual zone aircon and push start button. 

Black interior. Timeless.

18" alloy wheel with Hankook tires.

Very stylish design.

Keyless entry. 

Side mirror signal indicator. 

The panaramic sunroof will get you a nice sun tan inside the car.

LED daytime running light. A must have for luxury car now.

Very impressive boot space. At least can accomodate 2 golf bags.

The very agressive signature Kia grill.

The rear passenger not forgotten with some nice features to have.

Testing out the rear view camera. The monitor located at the left hand side of the rear view mirror.

LED brake lights.

Verdict: With the price tag of Rm138,888 and 5 years warranty, I believed the Kia Sportage is really value for money compare with similar range like the Honda CRV and Nissan X-Trail. Waiting time around 3 months so faster book now if you want to drive this baby around.

This video will give you an idea what accessories to add on your new Kia Sportage from side step to rear spoiler.

Carey Island Beach @ Sunset

Location : Carey Island Beach
GPS Coordinates : N2 49.717 E101 19.960

A trip to nowhere bring me to this Carey Island situated around 10km from Jenjarom. The journey thru a quiet road with oil palm plantations and bio diesel factory along the road. Carey Island actually separated from the main land by the Langat river. Not a very popular place for beach goers as maybe the beach is quite rocky in nature. Many mobile hawkers around for hungry food craze Malaysian.

Very rocky surface, not suitable for children to play.

Low tide.

Very hot day to come to the beach. I don't recommend swimming coz the water don't seem clean. 

My male model for the day not knowing being watch from far. He seem to be looking for some treasure on the ground.

In deep thoughts.

We just like a small sand in the universe. So small and insignificant.

Shadows.
