No, the Ford Focus ST is not a V6. The 2014 Ford Focus ST 2.0 Ecoboost is equipped with a 4-cylinder engine. It has a displacement of 1999 mL (2.0 L), and delivers a maximum power output of 253 PS at 5500 rpm. This configuration is designed to balance performance and fuel efficiency. A V6 engine typically has six cylinders arranged in a V-shape. In some cases, V6 engines generally provide greater power and torque than a 4-cylinder engine, but may consume more fuel. However, the Focus ST's 4-cylinder engine utilizes advanced technologies such as turbocharging (specifically the Ecoboost system in this model) to enhance performance. This enables it to achieve relatively high power output while maintaining reasonable fuel consumption, benefiting both daily driving and performance enthusiasts.

As the first pure - electric vehicle model of Xiaomi Auto, the performance of the Xiaomi SU7 has attracted wide attention. According to official data, the SU7 Max version is equipped with a dual - motor four - wheel drive system, with a maximum power of 673 horsepower. It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.78 seconds and reach a top speed of 265 km/h. This achievement has placed it in the first echelon of high - performance electric vehicles. For users in Malaysia, such acceleration ability is more than enough to meet the needs of daily driving and even track experiences. It's worth noting that electric vehicles usually have better acceleration performance than fuel - powered vehicles in the same class because electric motors can output maximum torque instantly. However, the actual range will be affected by the driving style. It is recommended to pay attention to the power consumption during aggressive driving. In addition, the hot climate in Malaysia poses higher requirements for battery thermal management. The CTB (Cell - to - Body) battery - body integration technology and the efficient cooling system adopted by the SU7 can effectively handle high - temperature environments. It is recommended that interested users visit the authorized showrooms to personally experience its acceleration performance and intelligent features.

Nissan Kicks doesn't come with AWD (All-Wheel Drive) across the whole lineup. Starting from the 2025 model year, the Kicks offers an all-wheel drive option for the first time. Before that, it was front-wheel drive only. In the current configuration, the S and SV trims come standard with front-wheel drive, but you can choose all-wheel drive. Meanwhile, the SR Premium is only available with all-wheel drive. Its all-wheel drive system is called the "New Intelligent AWD" system. It uses new software and vehicle dynamic control settings, which can improve its line traceability. This system mainly operates in front-wheel drive mode to achieve optimal fuel economy. It can transfer power to the rear wheels before detecting front-wheel slippage. Also, in Snow mode, it will continuously apply a certain amount of torque to the rear wheels at all speeds.

Honda Odyssey is equipped with an in-line 4-cylinder engine. As can be seen from the parameters, it has 4 cylinders, with a naturally aspirated (NA) intake form. The displacement is 2356 mL, and the maximum horsepower of the engine is 175 PS. The in-line 4-cylinder engine has a simple structure, low cost, good stability, and is easy to repair. It also performs well in fuel economy. The V-type engine divides the cylinders into two banks, arranged in a V shape. The cylinder angle of a V4 engine is generally either 60 degrees or 90 degrees. Compared with the in-line 4-cylinder engine, the V4 has a more compact structure, but the manufacturing process is more complex and the cost is higher. The common cylinder angles of a V6 engine are 60 degrees and 90 degrees. Compared with the in-line 4-cylinder and V4 engines, the V6 runs more smoothly and has a smoother power output, but its structure is more complex and the cost is higher. The Honda Odyssey uses an in-line 4-cylinder engine to meet the daily usage requirements while balancing multiple factors such as cost and fuel consumption.

The official pricing for the 2024 Toyota Yaris Cross in the Malaysian market has yet to be announced. However, based on information from local automaker Perodua regarding the sibling model “D66B,” the starting price is likely to be around RM73,000. This model is expected to be equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine paired with a CVT (continuously variable transmission), achieving a fuel consumption as low as approximately 5.7 liters per 100 kilometers. Combining the stability of the TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture) platform with a youthful design aesthetic—features like a trapezoidal grille, a floating roofline, and streamlined taillights—the Yaris Cross is quite competitive in the compact SUV market.

The Perodua Ativa is a Class B vehicle. Its dimensions are 4065 mm in length, 1710 mm in width, and 1635 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2525 mm. These dimensions determine its overall size and interior space. Its length offers a comfortable cabin and ample trunk space. The trunk has a capacity of 303 liters (which can be expanded to 369 liters in some models). The width allows passengers to have comfortable shoulder room, and the height ensures good headroom. The wheelbase affects riding comfort and legroom inside the car. The 2525-mm wheelbase gives the Ativa a relatively comfortable driving and riding experience, providing sufficient legroom for passengers in both the front and rear seats. It has a well - proportioned size, aiming to meet the needs of daily commuting and family trips.

The road tax price of the Proton X90 depends on its engine capacity and model. As a 1.5-liter turbocharged hybrid model, its road tax is calculated based on the engine displacement (1499cc). According to the standards of Malaysia's JPJ, the annual road tax for vehicles below 1.5 liters is RM90, while for those between 1.5 and 1.6 liters, it's RM120. Therefore, the road tax for the Proton X90 is RM120, but the specific amount may vary slightly depending on the vehicle's registration year or the state. It's recommended that car owners check the latest rates through the JPJ official website or the MyEG platform. In addition, when calculating the road tax, the vehicle type (such as private or commercial vehicles) and emission standards also need to be considered. The Malaysian government encourages the use of environmentally - friendly vehicles and offers road tax exemptions or discounts for hybrid or electric vehicles. So, as a mild hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV), the Proton X90 may enjoy some preferential policies. When renewing the road tax, car owners need to ensure that their vehicle insurance is valid and bring the vehicle inspection report (if the vehicle is over 5 years old). They can complete the payment through the JPJ counter, post office, or online platforms, and the process is quite convenient. Understanding the road tax calculation helps car owners plan their annual vehicle - maintenance costs reasonably and keep an eye on the government's support policies for new - energy vehicles. In the future, the cost of vehicle ownership may be further reduced.

However, the specific differences will ultimately depend on the particular model and configuration.

Currently, the Honda City (the 6th generation model from 2020 to present) is equipped with a 1.5L i - VTEC naturally aspirated engine (L15B). For a standard oil change (including replacing the oil filter), the total engine oil capacity is approximately 3.3 to 3.5 liters. If you only drain the oil without replacing the filter, the oil filling volume is about 3.0 liters. Honda recommends using fully synthetic engine oil. The recommended viscosities are 0W - 20 or 5W - 30, such as the Honda Genuine Ultra or Ultimate series. This type of oil can adapt to the tropical climate in Malaysia and optimize fuel efficiency. When filling the oil, you need to check the oil level with the dipstick to ensure it is between the MIN and MAX marks. Over - filling may affect engine performance or cause damage to the oil seals. It is recommended that car owners change the engine oil according to the official maintenance schedule (every 10,000 kilometers or 6 months) to keep the engine running in the best condition.
