After rounds of deliberation, we’ve arrived at the Top 10 cars of 2011. The list consists of cars that were launched in Malaysia in 2011 and are what we think of as industry movers and also signals of greater things to come in 2012. Note: none of the TCG members were hurt when compiling this list.

Picture this scenario. You already have a SUV or a sedan as a daily ride or for that occasional “balik kampong” (home-coming) trip during the holidays.
