Kicking Electric Up A Notch with the Nissan Kicks e-Power

It's a show in three parts, as always, starting off with the biggest auto headlines: The BYD Sealion 7 is open for booking - find out how it stacks up against the rest of the BYD lineup, ZEEKR opens the doors to its brand new PJ showroom with the launch of X and the 009- Daniel also gives a rundown on their recent Lynk & Co. acquisition and what it means for the ZEEKR brand- and MG boosts their after-sales service with a brand new parts warehouse in the Klang Valley to serve both ICE and EV models.

Then, a quick right turn to the discussion of the week: BYD Sealion 7 vs smart #3. Richard, Ali, and Daniel compare the two electric SUV coupés and break down the good, the bad, and everything under the hood.

And finally, a car review! It's all about the Nissan Kicks e-Power crossover this week, the first of many e-Power vehicles about to hit Malaysian roads. Our resident motor expert has everything you need to know about the impressive new tech and gives us his thoughts from his time behind the wheel.
