Volkswagen Group Malaysia together with partner DRB-HICOM Berhad presented the media with its fourth and latest German-engineered, Malaysian-assembled model, the Volkswagen Jetta in an exclusive preview yesterday. 

Since its introduction in Malaysia in 2011, the Jetta has been one of the most popular Volkswagen models and amongst the best mid-size sedans available in the Malaysian market. 

“The Jetta offers an aspirational and inspirational drive that marries sportiness, elegance and safety without compromising on Volkswagen’s commitment to sustainability with its fuel efficient consumption levels. The local assembly of the Jetta is the latest indication of our commitment to offer more affordable vehicle choices for Malaysians seeking the quality and reassurance that comes with a German engineered vehicle,” said Christoph Aringer, Managing Director of Volkswagen Group Malaysia.


Delving further on the importance of the locally assembled Jetta to Volkswagen Group Malaysia, Mr Aringer also adds, “The fully imported Jetta introduced in 2011 was a significant contributor to Volkswagen’s success in Malaysia thus far. We are extremely confident that sales of the Jetta will surge forward now that the car is being locally assembled and even more competitively priced than ever before.”


The Jetta is Volkswagen’s modern interpretation of sporty design on a classic body style. Since its birth in 1979, the Jetta has been popular with its very own distinctive character. Its unique style coupled with its pure design and innovative features have the potential to attract a broad range of customers desiring style and sportiness in mobility. 

Speaking during the media presentation, Simon Loasby, Director of Design, Volkswagen Group China shared the design principle adopted by the Volkswagen design team.



“The Jetta possesses a design that is perfectly poised between sporty and elegant supported by a unique, thought-through and consistent sedan interior and exterior design language. While its stylish and distinctive design is attractive whilst being understated, the Jetta also promises the pleasure of driving and at the same time provides an assurance of security and environmental friendliness,” said Loasby.

A car that truly inspires confidence with its power and poise, the Jetta combines a 1.4l twin-charged direct petrol injection TSI engine with a 7-speed direct shift gearbox that gives an impressive output of 160PS and a torque of 240Nm between 1,500 to 4,500rpm – making it amongst the most powerful vehicles in its segment. 


The only car in its segment with a 7-speed gearbox, this sedan is also able to accelerate from 0 to 100kph in 8.3 seconds and capable in reaching a top speed of 221kph – further underlining its athletic credentials. Despite its sporty performance, the Jetta features a combined fuel consumption of approximately 6.0l/100 km (16.7 km per litre) on a Euro 5 emission standard, making it the segment class-leader in fuel efficiency and emissions.

Enhanced entertainment features

The Jetta’s entertainment features have been carefully selected for the Malaysian market. Presenting Malaysians an extensive range of connectivity options, this elegant sedan is installed with the new RCD320 radio with multiple connectivity options such as Bluetooth, SD-card slot, USB with iPod interface and AUX-In. This multi-function display comes with multi-language support and its audio system is further supplemented with 6 sound quality speakers.


Safety Features

Safety features are of utmost importance in the Jetta. Equipped with dual front airbags with front passenger airbag deactivation, dual front side airbags and curtain airbags for front and rear passengers; Electronic Stability Control (ESC) with Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Brake Assist (BA) as well as hill-hold control and rain sensor is installed in the Jetta. The locally assembled Jetta also comes with safety-optimized front head restraints and child seat anchorage points (ISOFIX system).

Interior

Inside the Jetta, there is an assortment of aesthetic and functional features such as a multi-function leather steering wheel complemented with leather gearshift knob and handbrake lever, as well as ‘Black Pyramids’ decorative inserts for dashboard and door trim panel. The functional interior features of the Jetta includes auto-dimming rear view mirror, cruise control, auto power windows for all four doors, glove compartment with cooling functions and a generous 510 litres of trunk space.



As far as driver and passenger comfort is concerned, the Jetta is furnished with ‘Sienna’ fabric seat upholstery, height adjustable front seats, 60/40 foldable rear seats, adjustable front armrest and rear armrest as well as a ‘Climatronic’ automatic air conditioning system with 2-zone temperature control and rear air-con vents.

Exterior 

The Jetta truly encompasses the Volkswagen design DNA, featuring dynamic design lines that truly bring out the essence of this sedan. Fitted with 16-inch alloy wheels, chrome grille and twin exhaust tailpipes, the car is further kitted with front and rear fog lights, in case of fog. Its halogen headlights comes with automatic headlight activation with ‘Leaving Home’ and manual ‘Coming Home’ functions and exterior mirror with environment lighting to assist drivers in dark area.

PRESS RELEASE: Toyota Corolla Global Sales Surpassed 1.22 Million Units!!!


Toyota Motor Sales (TMS), U.S.A., Inc., recently announced Corolla global sales of 1.22 million units in 2013, according to the company’s internal data based on individual vehicle sales reporting from its distributors.

The 5 percent year-over-year increase confirms the Corolla’s perennial popularity among loyal customers in approximately 150 countries and regions around the world.

“The Corolla stands as the international face of Toyota and touches millions of people across the globe every day,” said Bill Fay, Toyota division group vice president and general manager. “Being the world’s best-selling car speaks volumes about the satisfaction and loyalty our customers feel about the Corolla and Toyota.”

Thanks to the recent redesign, including amplified elements of design and improved fuel economy, Corolla’s worldwide cumulative sales since its introduction in 1966 topped 40.72 million units as of February 2014, making it the all-time best-selling vehicle model. 

Based on Toyota’s analysis of Polk new vehicle registration data from IHS Automotive, which captures 96 percent of global new vehicle volumes, the Corolla is the world’s best-selling vehicle model for 2013 with global registrations of 1,098,524 million units. 

This figure includes Corolla sedan and other variations in name such as Corolla Axio, Corolla Altis and Corolla EX 4-door sedans. The subscripts “Axio” “Altis” and “EX” denote trim levels of the 4-door Corolla sedan sold in various global regions, including Japan. Also included are the Corolla-badged Fielder and Rumion 5-door wagons.

Based on Toyota’s analysis, various competitive claims based on “single nameplate” registrations may have excluded data for Corolla Axio, Corolla Altis, Corolla EX, Corolla Fielder and Corolla Rumion, which are identified and marketed as Corolla sedans and wagons. 

In the U.S., the all-new Corolla posted sales of more than 300,000 units in 2013, a 4 percent increase year-over-year. In 2013, 97 percent of all Corollas sold in the U.S. were built in North America.

PRESS RELEASE: UMW Toyota Launched Toyota Traffic Tots 2014!!!



Toyota Traffic Tots, a road safety programme targeted at preschool children, reaches new heights with the addition of ten schools this year. Launched in 2012, the programme is an extension of Toyota’s Road Safety Programme initiated in 2006 to raise road safety knowledge among school children.

With programme partners Smart Reader Worldwide, the Toyota Traffic Tots has brought road safety tips and information to more than 4,000 preschool children aged 4-6 nationwide in the last two years. The programme that is supported by the Road Safety Department is now extended to another ten private schools so that more children can have access to essential road safety lessons. 

“As car makers and people with families, road safety remains a topic very close to our hearts,” says President of UMW Toyota Datuk Ismet Suki. “We are very pleased that the Toyota Traffic Tots has been growing in popularity since its inception, an indication that it has created impact upon participating students, parents and teachers.”

Touted as a road safety programme with a difference, Toyota Traffic Tots targets preschool children, an age group often overlooked by parents, schools and policy makers. Using song, dance and role play, essential lessons related to road safety are taught one lesson every week for 7 months. 

Lessons are categorised into passenger safety and pedestrian safety for easier understanding. Participating preschools have reported greater road safety awareness among parents in the last two years, now that they have ‘little traffic police’ as their passenger!

“Statistics show that there is a high percentage of deaths and injuries among young children. In 2009 for instance, 15.5% of deaths caused by road traffic injuries involve children below 18, compared to 13.6% in 2007. With that, road safely lessons need to start as early as possible. Toyota Traffic Tots programme also serves as a perfect complement to the Road Safety Education that is currently being taught in schools,” explains Datuk Ismet.

Teachers who facilitate the Traffic Tots lessons are first provided intensive training on the programme modules before they are certified to teach the programme. Apart from the lessons in class, students are also required to bring worksheets home to be completed with their parents, making road safety a discussion and sharing session between parents and children. 

The Toyota Traffic Tots programme is one of the three CSR pillars of UMW Toyota Motor aimed at road safety awareness, the other two being the Toyota Eco-Youth programme, a campaign to engage the youth in environmental awareness; and the Toyota Classics, a fund-raising concert for underprivileged communities. These pillars underline the company’s philosophy of improving the quality of life and contributing to the society where they operate.

Naza Kia Malaysia’s talk-of-the-town “Fuleco Friend Search” climaxed in a battle among parents at e-Curve last weekend as hundreds of parents sweated it out to hold the “Fuleco” pose the longest. The heated competition was held as the last leg of the “Fuleco Friend Search” campaign for a parent to win an experience of a lifetime for their child. Usha Rani (mother) won her child, Deshshiv Darshaan (10 years old) the priceless opportunity to walk hand-in-hand with Fuleco, the FIFA World Cup Mascot onto the pitch during the Semi Final game in Brazil. 

Datuk Hafiz Syed Abu Bakar, Chief Operating Officer of Naza Kia Malaysia who officiated the competition said the company sees the global partnership with FIFA World Cup as a great opportunity to deliver the excitement of the brand to football-mad fellow Malaysians.

This is an exciting moment not just for the child but for all Malaysians, to see one of us, live, at one of the greatest sporting events in the world! Through a campaign like “Fuleco Friend Search”, we hope to inspire children to get into football as a sport with passion and to dream, hope as well as aspire towards what may have seemed impossible,” said Datuk Hafiz.

Putrajaya will play host to Round 3 of the Red Bull Air Race 2014, after the first two races out of eight in the calendar were held in Abu Dhabi and Rovinj, Croatia respectively.

With this being the first time the race is held in Malaysia, the organisers sent a team to the first leg in Abu Dhabi (held from 28 Feb – 1 Mar) to accrue experience and get a closer look at all requirements and equipment deployed for the race.

In the case of emergencies, both a local qualified team of doctors as well as the Red Bull Air Race official medical team will be on hand to swiftly attend to matters.

While the draw of any motorsport event comes from being as close to the action as possible, Aerolomba has taken exhaustive measures to both inform spectators of safety protocols and ensure that safety measures during the event are adhered to.

“We will take all necessary measures to make sure that our venues have adequate notice boards, signages and information counters in place to assist and inform the public of the on-site rules and regulations.

A total of 150 safety personnel and 250 security personnel will be deployed for the event and the entire event perimeter will be cordoned off to make the venue a closely protected zone that offers spectators both safety and comfort.

To further preserve the highest level of safety for pilots, crew and the spectators at each race, a dedicated team will use state-of-the-art technology to monitor and ensure adherence to the regulations provided by the FAI (Fédération Aéronautique Internationale), local authorities and local aeronautic authorities.

As a world governing body, the FAI oversees world-class international competitions, as well as certifying world aviation and space records, and has given the seal of approval for all Red Bull Air Race rules and regulations for 2014. 

Since the race’s inception in 2003, over 50 races have been held without incident so far.

The Red Bull Air Race World Championship features the world’s best pilots in a motor sports competition based on speed, precision and skill. 

After two rounds, Austrian Hannes Arch and Great Briton Paul Bonhomme lead the Master Class pilot’s standings with 21 points each. 

Putrajaya will be host to Round 3 of the race from May 17-18 and will feature Malaysian pilot Dato’ Halim Othman in the Challenger Class. Tickets can be purchased online via Ticket Pro's website.

PRESS RELEASE: Austria's Hannes Arch Wins Rovinj, Croatia Red Bull Air Race!!!



Austria’s Hannes Arch came from behind to beat defending champion Paul Bonhomme in a riveting final in the second stop of the eight-leg Red Bull Air Race World Championship on Sunday in Rovinj, Croatia. Arch was trailing Bonhomme at the midway point of the final round by 0.23 seconds but opened the throttle with a blistering second lap on the obstacle course set up on the Adriatic Sea to get his eighth career victory. Japan’s Yoshihide Muroya got the first podium of his career, taking third place on a challenging course in the bay off Rovinj that was made even more difficult when the winds coming from the south shifted to from the west.

Cheered on by thousands of fans from nearby Austria, Arch also became the sentimental favorite of the local Croatian fans, who were savoring the country's first Red Bull Air Race. The Austrian had a flawless run in the final, stopping the clock in 59.012 seconds -- ahead of Bonhomme’s 59.097. They have 21 points each in the World Championship standings.

“It’s really special,” said Arch, who felt lifted by a surge of support this weekend from the big crowd in Rovinj, a stunning town on a peninsula known as the blue pearl of the Adriatic. “When I heard I was first I had tears in my eyes because of all the emotions and the release of the pressure. It was so difficult here.”



There was a record six pylon hits on the challenging course set up in the water just off the shoreline of Rovinj – including one in the Super 8 round that ended the day of Matt Hall of Australia, who finished a disappointing seventh. Canada’s Pete McLeod was fourth after a costly penalty in the finals. Britain`s Nigel Lamb got knocked out when his running propeller touched the ground and got damaged at the Race Airport.

PRESS RELEASE: UMW Toyota Launched The All New Toyota Previa and Toyota Alphard



In response to customer feedback as well as growing market demand, UMW Toyota Motor Sdn Bhd, the official distributor of Toyota vehicles in Malaysia, is now offering the Toyota Alphard and Toyota Previa as part of the line-up for the Malaysian market. Both MPV models are extremely popular in Malaysia but have so far only been available from private importers.

Unlike the vehicles which are imported by other parties who purchase them from used car dealers in Japan, the Alphard and Previa distributed by UMW Toyota Motor are sourced directly from Toyota factories in Japan. This is a guarantee of the same superior quality as other vehicles sold by UMW Toyota Motor.

And as with virtually all vehicles sold by the company, there is a manufacturer’s warranty of 3 years or 100,000 kms (whichever occurs first after original registration). Besides this warranty which covers manufacturing defects that occur during the period of coverage, owners can also have peace of mind knowing that should there be any technical issues which need to be rectified in later years, they are assured of the full support of UMW Toyota Motor to provide parts and qualified technical assistance. This is not possible with vehicles which are imported by other parties.

Full after-sales support, including servicing by technicians trained by Toyota, can be obtained at no less than 72 authorised Toyota service centres nationwide. Availability of Toyota Genuine Parts for both models is guaranteed as part of the commitment to satisfaction throughout the entire ownership experience of a Toyota vehicle.

In view of good demand, UMW Toyota Motor is officially introducing these value for money models with on-the-road price of RM258,017.10 for the Previa 2.4 GL, RM338,000 for the Alphard 2.4G and RM 398,000 for the Alphard 3.5G. Currently, UMW Toyota Motor is offering an introductory package of three years free service, first year free road tax and insurance to the first 300 customers.

Furthermore, all vehicles that are distributed by UMW Toyota Motor have technical specifications which are suited for Malaysian conditions as Toyota engineers have conducted thorough studies of road and climatic conditions.

TOYOTA PREVIA

The latest Toyota Previa (also known as Estima) is the third generation of one of Toyota’s more popular MPVs. The Previa has a distinctive profile with its sleek and aerodynamic shape. The latest generation maintains the 1-motion silhouette with a sportier frontal appearance and a ‘floating roof’ concept with the ‘hidden’ roof pillars.

Though a large MPV, the shape of the Previa has been streamlined in many areas to enable it to slip through the air smoothly, helping in fuel economy as well as lowering wind noise. Some features which enhance aerodynamics are the smooth underside of the floorpan with minimum openings to cause turbulence and an optimised height for the rear bumper to allow air to flow out from under the vehicle more smoothly. Spats are installed in front of each wheel to divert airflow outwards so that straightline stability at high speeds is improved.

Customers ordering their new Previa have a choice of 5 colours – Ice Titanium Mica Metallic, White Pearl CS, Black, Silky Gold Mica Metallic, and Silver Metallic.

Interior space has always been a strong point of the Previa, one of the reasons why it has been a popular choice as a family vehicle. The latest generation has improved seating comfort, thanks to the expanded cabin space, and entry/exit is easier with the wider door openings on either side. For convenience, both side doors are powered and can be operated either with the smart key, switches on the driver’s door panel, or by pulling on the handles. Minimal force is required to open the doors manually and Jam Protection ensures safety during the closing operation.

The appointments inside the Previa reflects a premium image with leather upholstery as standard and wide comfortable seats for all 7 occupants on three rows. While the driver’s seat has 8-way power adjustment, the passengers in the second row can enjoy the journey on Captain and Ottoman seats with integrated footrests at the back of front seats.

The second and third rows can be adjusted in various ways, providing flexibility in transporting cargo or occupants. Maximum cargo capacity is available when the third row is completely tumbled forward.

Power comes from the proven Toyota 2AZ-FE petrol engine, a 2.4-litre DOHC 16-valve unit with VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence). Power delivery goes to the front wheels via a Super ECT automatic transmission which has the option of manual gear selection if the driver prefers to do his own shifting. Electronic controls refine the operation of the transmission as the gearshifts are coordinated with the running of the engine.

The chassis of the Previa uses front MacPherson struts with a rear torsion beam and has been designed to minimise body roll while providing a comfortable ride. Extensive efforts have been made to reduce noise transmission through the body with sound-insulating material used even in certain cross sections of the frame and to isolate the engine bay noise.

The body structure of the Previa satisfies Toyota’s tough in-house safety standard known as the Global Outstanding Assessment. Impact forces during an accident are dissipated around the cabin so as to minimise injurious effects to the occupants and around the cabin, certain surfaces are made softer to reduce injuries to passengers’ heads in the event of a severe accident. Needless to say, dual SRS airbags are also installed and ISOFIX points are provided for quick and secure installation of compatible childseats.

A useful safety feature for parents with small children is the conversation mirror incorporated to the sunglass holder above the inside rearview mirror. This small mirror, which has a wide angle of view, enables the driver to watch his or her children at the back without having to turn around frequently.

To assist the driver in avoiding accidents, the Previa is equipped with a full range of active safety systems which include Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD). The latter system is especially important for a MPV which may carry varying loads at different times. As the weight distribution in the vehicle will affect braking stability, EBD detects the distribution pattern and adjusts the braking forces to all four wheels to ensure stable and level braking at all times. Without EBD, a lighter load at the rear when there are no occupants could result in reduce braking performance at the rear.

High–Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps with auto-levelling are standard to provide bright illumination of the road ahead. Additionally, the Previa headlamp system comes with an Intelligent Adaptive Front Lighting System which will change the direction that the headlamps are pointed in accordance with the steering operation and vehicle speed. This is useful when cornering on winding roads as there is better illumination during cornering.

Every new Previa comes with a Toyota security system and Toyota Premium Security & Solar Film as standard. The film, applied by professionals at UMW Toyota Motor’s own facility, impedes break-ins from the side window glass when an attempt is made to smash it and of course reduces heat and glare from sunshine, keeping the cabin cool and comfortable.

TOYOTA ALPHARD

While the Previa began life as a global MPV product, the Alphard was initially offered mainly in the Japanese domestic market. The first generation was very successful in Japan and was the best-selling Toyota MPV. With the current second generation which is being marketed more globally, Toyota’s designers gave it a modern style which projects the image of a Majestic Flagship MPV.

The Alphard projects an image of solidity with its bold monoform design concept. Though it is a large vehicle, the designers have given it a dynamic look with styling elements like flares at the front and rear wheel arches.

There’s also a luxurious look with the gray-metallic coating on the distinctive grille which has chrome accents. The bonnet molding has been given a chrome-accented finish as well to emphasise the classy image of the Alphard.

The Alphard is available in two variants – Alphard 3.5G and 2.4G - and customers have a choice of four exterior colours – White Pearl CS, Gold Pearl CS, Silver Metallic and Black. 

The latest Alphard has a new platform that has enabled the cabin to be longer while the floor level has been lowered. Even through the overall height is lower, the cabin ceiling is slightly higher than the first generation, enhancing comfort for the 7 occupants who sit on 3 rows of seats. 

In keeping with the image of a Majestic Flagship, the cabin of the Alphard has a luxurious and high-quality image which is expressed through the use of leather, woodgrain trim and chrome accents. The shell interior gives an airy and spacious ambience which is like that of a luxurious hotel. Soft illumination along the side of the ceiling also add to the classy environment inside the Alphard.

The driver’s area is like that of a luxury sedan with all switches and control buttons positioned optimally for easy reach. Likewise, the instrument panel has a high-quality design and the Optitron meters are sharp and clear in all lighting conditions. 

For the most comfortable seating position, the driver’s seat can be adjusted in no less than 8 ways at the press of a button. Preferred seat adjustments can also be memorised and selected at the touch of a button. Together with the automatic adjustment of the seat, the angles of the door mirrors are also adjusted to each individual driver’s preference. When the engine is switched off, the seat slides back to allow easier movement in and out of the vehicle.

Passengers in the second row can enjoy sitting in powered Captain and Ottoman seats which have integrated footrests at the back of the front seats. These seats are comparable to those in the First Class of an airliner, and offer the ultimate in travelling comfort.

The third row of seats have a 50:50 split folding feature, allowing each half to be utilised or folded against the side. This allows flexibility when carrying luggage and extra passengers. A spring-loaded mechanism makes it easy to fold each seat up.

The triple-zone air-conditioning system ensures that everyone in the cabin will be kept cool. There are vents on the ceiling to carry cool air all the way to the rear and additional vents at lower levels to distribute air more extensively around the cabin. The system has a nanoe™ ion generator to freshen the air quality as well as a dust and pollen filtration mode that can be activated at the front air-conditioning system panel. Though it has high cooling performance, the air-conditioning system has been designed to have low energy consumption to help fuel efficiency.

Besides a twin moon roof, the Alphard (3.5G version only) also has a power-operated rear door. At the touch of a button on the Smart Key or overhead console, the door will open automatically. It can be closed the same way by pressing a button on the rear door. To avoid injuries, the door will stop its downward movement if resistance is detected as it is closing.

Both side doors have large openings and open and close automatically. Should manual opening be necessary, the easy closer function ensures minimal force is required when closing the side doors. 

Extensive efforts have been made to provide a quiet cabin environment for motoring pleasure. Generous amounts of specialised sound insulating materials have been inserted in many areas and sound-dampening measures have been taken in areas where engine noise can pass through.

Customers have a choice of two proven Toyota engines for their Alphard – a 3.5-litre, 24-valve, V6, Dual VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) engine with ACIS (Acoustic Control Induction System) to enhance torque delivery over a broader engine speed range or a 2.4-litre, 16-valve, 4-cylinder, VVT-i engine.

The Alphard 3.5G has a 6-speed Super ECT Automatic Transmission while the Alphard 2.4G uses a 7-speed CVT. Both types of transmissions offer the driver the option of selecting gears manually if desired.

The front suspension is by MacPherson struts while the rear suspension uses a torsion beam. The suspension geometry has been optimised taking into consideration the height of the vehicle and its load to ensure that the driver can enjoy good handling and stability while the passengers experience superior ride comfort.

Besides its strong bodyshell which meets Toyota’s Advanced Global Outstanding Assessment for maximum occupant protection, the Alphard also comes with active safety features that help the driver maintain vehicle control to avoid an accident. These include Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) as well as Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) which adjusts engine output and applies brakes on individual wheels to neutralise oversteer or understeer during cornering.

In the event that an accident cannot be avoided, there are 7 SRS airbags around the cabin, including an airbag under the steering column to protect the driver’s knees. During side impacts, curtain airbags will deploy to cover the side windows. Whiplash is also prevented with a special design for the headrests on the front seats that reduces the strain on the neck.

Bright High-Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps which are approved by the JPJ are installed to provide the best illumination for safe driving at night. For the Alphard 3.5G, there is also an Intelligent Adaptive Front Lighting System which swivels the headlamps as the vehicle turns in corners, providing better illumination on winding roads. 

Every new Alphard comes with a Toyota security system and Toyota Premium Security & Solar Film as standard. The film, applied by professionals at UMW Toyota Motor’s own facility, impedes break-ins from the side window glass when an attempt is made to smash it and of course reduces heat and glare from sunshine, keeping the cabin cool and comfortable.
