Spy shots show the Genesis G80 hybrid still wrapped in heavy camouflage ahead of its Q3 2026 launch alongside the GV80 hybrid. A long-wheelbase variant (G80 HEV LWB) is also caught testing and is tipped for Q4, featuring G90-style power-operated rear doors to enhance rear-passenger prestige while retaining the regular model’s exterior design.

Jeep unveiled the Wrangler Whitecap special edition featuring a white roof, grille inserts and 1941 decals honouring the military CJ. Offered on Rubicon and Sahara with 2.0T (274PS) or 3.6L V6, the package adds roughly US$3,185 to the Rubicon base price.

Rolls-Royce launches the Black Badge Ghost “Gamer” Bespoke, channeling 8-bit arcade nostalgia. The two-tone salamanca-blue and crystal-over-diamond-black bodywork rides on 22-inch seven-spoke forged Black Badge wheels with black calipers. Inside, hand-painted “Mischievous Alien” coachline, “Player One” embroidery, “Pixel Blast” starlight headliner and “Laser Base” luminary panel fuse retro-futurism with pinnacle craftsmanship.

A final teaser shows the side profile of Perodua’s D66B, set to debut tomorrow as the rumored “Traz”. Built on the Toyota Yaris Cross platform, it will offer the same 106 PS 1.5 L or 111 PS hybrid powertrains and five-star ASEAN NCAP safety. Positioned above the Ativa (from RM 62,500), full pricing and specs will be revealed at launch.

Volkswagen released early specs of the ID. Polo: MEB+ architecture, 4 053 mm long, 2 600 mm wheelbase and 435-1 243 L boot. Choice of 37 kWh LFP (116/135 PS, 90 kW DC) or 52 kWh NMC (211 PS, 130 kW DC, 450 km WLTP); a 226 PS GTI follows. Enhanced Travel Assist brings assisted lane changes and traffic-sign recognition when it launches spring 2026, kicking off four new EVs.

Porsche is re-engineering the EV-only PPE platform to accept a mid-mounted ICE for the next Boxster and Cayman, adding a bolt-in structural floor and new rear bulkhead to restore rigidity lost with the battery deleted. A development of the 4.0 L flat-six—up to 500 PS in today’s GT4 RS—is slated, as the EU’s 2035 CO₂ target drops from 100 % to 90 % and CEO Blume concedes the 80 % EV-sales goal for 2030 is no longer realistic.
