Used Lexus ES 250 - Timeless Excellence

The Cruise Control team takes a break from reviewing the latest cars in the market to roll back the years. Inspired by his personal experience, Daniel shares with the listeners why they should consider a used Lexus ES 250 from the sixth generation, if they’re in the market for a luxury sedan that’s reliable and dependable, with a hint of class and elegance.

But before we get to that, we unpack the latest news in the automotive industry, including another new EV brand coming to Malaysia, in the form of TQ Wuling, an offspring of a strategic partnership between SGM Wuling and Tan Chong Motor Group, as well as Continental Tires closing their factory in Alor Setar, Kedah at the end of the year.

In our discussion segment, we talk about Yinson GreenTech and Ryde EV parting ways after 4 years together. What went wrong and is this an indicator of the state of the EV industry for motorcycles here in the country? We explore.
