Hongqi, a luxury brand of FAW Group, has signed an MoU with Quill Group, which has obtained the exclusive rights as the official importer and CKD distributor for Hongqi’s entry into Malaysia.

On July 20, the 2027 Exeed ES officially launched, offering one pure electric and two range-extender variants with prices from 169,900 to 199,900 yuan. Positioned as a track-level performance mid-to-large smart coupe, the new model is built on Exeed's upgraded all-domain new energy platform and comes standard with high-end Falcon intelligent driving assistance and Pánshí 2.0 all-domain safety system. The exterior adopts the "Phoenix Feather Butterfly Face" design language, retaining a sleek fastback coupe silhouette with standard sport rear bumper and optional Shadow Sport package (ISD Wind Whisper interactive headlights and wind-control electric spoiler), earning the German iF, American MUSE, and Italian A'Design awards. Body dimensions measure 4,945×1,978×1,480mm with a 3,000mm wheelbase; the 1.48m height delivers a 0.22Cd ultra-low drag coefficient. The signature connected Star Ring LED light band pairs with the ISD Wind Whisper interactive lamp cluster featuring 1,200 individual LED beads supporting customizable welcome, farewell, turn signal, and parking light patterns.

Geely Galaxy will debut the Battleship 700 on July 24, a new mid-to-large SUV featuring a rugged, boxy design language. The exterior includes a narrow-slat grille with square-outside-round-inside headlamps, hood vents with sculpted lines, orange bumper accents, and a front tow hook. A roof-mounted lookout LiDAR signals advanced intelligent driving capabilities. Power comes from a plug-in hybrid system with either a 2.0L or 1.5L turbocharged engine paired with a tri-motor all-wheel-drive system, expanding Geely Galaxy's premium new energy SUV portfolio.

The Chery Tiggo Cross has landed in Malaysia's competitive B-segment SUV category alongside rivals like the Proton X50 and Perodua Ativa. The Chery duo is priced from RM88,800 for the 1.5-litre Turbo variant up to RM99,800 for the 1.5-litre Hybrid CSH—both prices on-the-road without insurance. Measuring 4,318mm long and 1,830mm wide with a 2,610mm wheelbase, the Tiggo Cross is 62mm shorter but 35mm wider than the Proton X50, with a 10mm longer wheelbase.

One year after the third-generation Q3's debut, the updated Audi Q3 receives a configuration upgrade with production starting in early September from €46,100 (approximately 357,000 yuan). Available in standard SUV and Sportback variants with ICE and PHEV powertrains, the exterior retains the blacked-out sporty aesthetic with programmable DRLs, digital matrix LED headlamps featuring adaptive cornering and projection capabilities, and programmable taillights with self-illuminating badges. The interior debuts a 10.9-inch passenger display alongside an 11.9-inch instrument cluster, 12.8-inch center touchscreen, and head-up display. Reversing camera, dual-zone climate control, and heated seats become standard. The upgraded MMI system integrates more apps for standalone operation, while the Audi assistant enables voice control of multiple functions. Steering wheel scroll controls, 25W wireless charging (up from 15W), and three rear charging ports further enhance connectivity.
