Spy shots reveal BYD's first MPV for the Ocean Network, caught charging at a BYD ultra-fast charger. The front light signature clearly shows Ocean Network design language, though the overall profile differs significantly from the Ocean-V concept shown at the 2026 Beijing Auto Show, leaning toward a more traditional MPV style. Equipment includes a large grille, conventional door handles and a roof-mounted LiDAR. The Ocean-V concept was a five-seat MPV featuring a sliding center screen, 180-degree rotating seats, auto-retracting steering wheel, front-row screen extension, hidden tables and one-key bed mode – whether these carry over to the production model remains to be seen. Expected launch by year-end.

Spy shots reveal the Tank 700 long wheelbase version with largely unchanged styling but increased dimensions. Wheelbase grows 150mm to 3,150mm. The 2.0T variant wears a full black "Dark Warrior" exterior while the 3.0T gets bronze accents on wheels, front air intakes, roof trim and badging. Dimensions are 5,445×2,126×2,021mm, extending 340mm longer, 65mm wider and 36mm taller than the standard model. Interior mirrors the standard version with a three-spoke wheel, 12.3-inch LCD cluster and 15.6-inch floating center screen, featuring a six-seat layout with independent second-row seats and a folding third row. Powertrains include the 2.0T PHEV Hi4-Z (185kW, 59.05kWh ternary battery, 190km WLTP EV range) and the 3.0T PHEV six-cylinder (265kW).

The 2027 BAIC Arcfox αT5 official images are released with details improvements to exterior, interior and powertrain. The exterior retains current styling with a new roof-mounted LiDAR for enhanced ADAS, plus a frunk and redesigned wheels with hidden handles. Interior gets a new three-spoke steering wheel, tidier center console with floating center screen and HUD, upgraded suede door panels, and front seat heating, ventilation and massage. The pure EV variant gets a new rear motor producing 227kW with 680km range. Reference price for current model is 113,800-158,800 yuan, and it will launch alongside the 2027 αS5.

Bentley's first pure electric SUV, the Torcal, officially debuted in the South Korean market, with Malaysia launch targeted for the first half of 2027 and first deliveries in the second half. Pricing in Korea starts at 330 million won (997k ringgit) for the Core, rising to 360 million won (1.09 million ringgit) for the Torcal S. The Malaysian estimated starting price is 1.328 million ringgit, inclusive of import, excise and sales taxes. Dimensions are 5,008×2,025×1,677mm with a 3,023mm wheelbase and 2,795kg kerb weight – shorter than the Bentayga but with a longer wheelbase. The dual-motor AWD Core produces 821PS/1,194Nm, while the S delivers 888PS/1,350Nm, hitting 0-100km/h in just 2.9 seconds with a 260km/h top speed. The 113.3kWh battery (108.7kWh usable) offers up to 600km WLTP range, supporting 400kW DC fast charging: 10-80% in 20 minutes or 161km of range in just 7 minutes of charge. Standard features include 10-piston front brake calipers and rear-wheel steering, with optional carbon ceramic brakes.

Spy shots reveal the Bentley Bentayga X production model. The off-road variant departs from the current model's road-focused design with raised ride height and enhanced off-road equipment. It retains signature quad-round headlights, with a larger front camera module suggesting binocular ADAS. Blacked-out window trim, waist line and fender accents, plus rally-style wheels with off-road tires give it a rugged look. Air suspension with "off-road specific" labeling allows ride height adjustment. Power comes from a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 (650HP/850Nm) with 8AT, AWD, 0-100km/h in 3.6s, 310km/h top speed and 48V mild hybrid system.

Following the "launch" of Proton's new AMA02 A-segment SUV (rumoured Saga Cross or X30) camouflage mules last week, many attempted to unwrap the car using AI. However, professional car designer Theophilus Chin created a render that far exceeds typical AI unmasking, carefully studying design lines and referencing the brand's existing cues. His render shows a front end reminiscent of the pre-facelift Honda HR-V in headlight and grille shape, plus Perodua's signature hexagonal grille and 'X' face. The profile features a prominent shoulder line above the front and rear wheels, with a black element on the rearmost pillars creating a floating roof effect conducive to two-tone color schemes. The rear has a full-width LED strip above the Proton script, with the number plate recess following the X50 facelift's lead. The render's stance is notably better than the ungainly mules seen so far.
