During the COVID-19 pandemic, ‘work from home’ or ‘wfh’ became a common practice as lockdowns and the need to keep apart prevented people from going to work in offices. Now Hyundai Motor has come up with another working practice for teams which could be called ‘work from anywhere’. Using a bus, it enables teams to remain productive while on the move and at remote locations.

The bus is a special version of the Universe luxury passenger bus sold in the Korean market. Referred to as the Universe Mobile Office, it is configured to make the bus a smart mobility solution, not just as a means of transportation. With this model, the company aims to lead the motor coach sector with a customized solution that takes remote work to the next level of mobility and luxury.

It’s a usual practice for companies to offer a reduction in prices at the end of the year as they want to clear stocks. And it is also not uncommon for prices in the new year to be revised upwards.

However, for those who order a new Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace Life today and take delivery in January 2023, the price will be lower. Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia has announced that the new price, with immediate effect, is from RM159,990 (without insurance), which is RM13,000 less than its launch price which was from RM172,990.

In order to grow its volumes further, Proton will need to look for new markets outside Malaysia and while the number of export markets is small, the increasing popularity of the Malaysian brand means brighter prospects for the future. One such market which is showing great potential is South Africa, which Proton returned to this year after a 10-year absence.

For its return, Proton teamed up with CMH (Combined Motor Holdings) Group, an investment holding company which has been active in the motor business since 1987. Proton joins a long list of global brands that CMH represents, some of which are Ford, Chery, Honda, Toyota, Suzuki, Mahindra, Peugeot and Citroen.
