In addition to the two-door Century idea and the aggressively styled new-generation Corolla, Toyota has presented yet another bold concept: a minivan with six wheels!
This unique and out-of-the-box concept will be officially showcased at this year’s Tokyo Mobility Show.
Named the LS (Luxury Space?), it bears no direct relation to the LS sedan, which has been discontinued in several markets.
Instead, the Lexus LS Concept is a three-axle minivan that appears larger than the existing Lexus LM model.
Based on the single image provided, it is safe to assume that the Lexus LS Concept is an electric minivan featuring a spacious cabin, aided by its boxy shape and high roofline.
The front of this minivan showcases vertical LED lighting units, complemented by LED light strips that deliberately extend to the D-pillar to emphasize the vehicle’s height.
This six-wheeled minivan concept will also be displayed at the Japan Mobility Show 2025 later this month.
In addition to the four-door sedan concept model, the Toyota Corolla, Toyota has also unveiled an ultra-luxury two-door coupe (or grand tourer) concept that will bear the Century nameplate.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Recently, Toyota has been attempting to establish the Century as one of its ultra-luxury sub-brands, set to compete with rivals such as Bentley, Jaguar, and Rolls-Royce.
Unlike its existing sedan and SUV offerings, Toyota seems determined to provide a completely new body style under the Century brand.
There are several intriguing details that we can observe from the teaser images provided, such as:
A fairly long engine hood
A conventional door opening on the right side
The presence of double sliding doors on the left side
A centrally positioned driver seat
No rear windows
This coupe also features layered lighting designs at both the front and rear, resembling the existing Century SUV offerings.
Additionally, there are vents on the engine hood and a partially open grille structure (complete with a phoenix emblem), suggesting that this coupe may be available with an internal combustion engine.
More details are expected to be revealed ahead of the Japan Mobility Show 2025, which will kick off at the end of this month.
In conjunction with the upcoming Japan Mobility Show 2025, Toyota seizes the opportunity to unveil several eye-catching concept models.
Among them is the Toyota Corolla Concept, which is expected to herald a new chapter for the world’s best-selling nameplate.
The concept model makes its appearance in a campaign titled “To You, Toyota.”
Several details can be observed, including:
A front design resembling a more modern hammerhead shark, complete with full-width LED lights.
No traditional grille structure.
The presence of ventilation ducts on the engine hood.
A simpler rear design featuring full-width LED pixel lights, a ducktail spoiler, and the word “Corolla” in the center.
A charging port cover on the front fender.
The use of conventional side mirror designs and door handles strongly suggests that this sedan has specifications more similar to those of an actual production version.
Did you notice the charging port cover we mentioned earlier?
This provides another hint indicating that the Corolla is likely to be offered as an electric sedan, or possibly as a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV), similar to the Prius.
More details will be revealed in the lead-up to the Japan Mobility Show 2025, which will kick off on October 29.

Mdua Motor Sdn Bhd, the official distributor of KOVE Moto motorcycles in Malaysia, has reintroduced the 450 Rally model for the Malaysian market.
Previously introduced, the KOVE 450 Rally is powered by a liquid-cooled single-cylinder engine with a displacement of 449 cc, paired with a six-speed transmission.
It delivers 51.7 hp at 9,500 rpm and a torque of 40 Nm at 7,000 rpm.
The suspension features adjustable 49 mm YU-AN inverted forks at the front, complemented by a YU-AN piggyback shock absorber at the rear.
The braking system uses a dual-piston caliper and 290 mm rotor at the front, assisted by a single-piston caliper and 240 mm rotor at the rear.

The overall weight of the bike is only 145 kg, with a fuel tank capacity of 30 liters and a seat height of 910 mm.

The era of large wagons from Volvo has officially come to an end with the last production unit of the Volvo V90 rolling off the assembly line at the Torslanda factory in Sweden.
The final black unit of the Volvo V90 is now part of the Volvo Heritage Collection, which will be displayed at the World of Volvo alongside earlier wagon models.
This luxury mid-size wagon was officially introduced in 2016, about two months after the launch of the S90 sedan.
In addition to the standard version, there was also a Cross Country variant with higher ground clearance and a more rugged appearance.
Volvo V60
With the V90 model discontinued, the Swedish brand, known for its iconic wagon designs, now only has one wagon in its portfolio—the Volvo V60.
Like the V90, the V60’s fate will not last long.
This is because Volvo CEO Jim Rowan told Autocar that while the V60 is still being produced, it will not be renewed after its life cycle ends.
Rowan also suggested repositioning the XC60 with variants like a Black Edition or Cross Country to attract wagon buyers.
The withdrawal of the Volvo V90 from the market clearly brings good news for competing models such as the Audi A6 Avant, BMW 5 Series Touring, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class Estate, which remain available in the European market.
However, for Volvo wagon enthusiasts, this latest development is undoubtedly another piece of bittersweet news to swallow.
There’s no need to blame Volvo for this, considering that the world is leaning more towards crossover and SUV models.
If the wagon models had continued to demonstrate strong sales, the iconic name V90 surely would not have been etched on a gravestone so soon.
After nearly four decades, Proton has officially closed its vehicle assembly plant in Shah Alam, marking the end of a glorious era in the history of the nation’s automotive industry.

“With their experience and dedication, PROTON is now ready to step into the next phase, establishing this plant as the main hub for the new generation of PROTON vehicles,” he added.
Production of the Saga model will continue in Tanjong Malim along with the Persona model, the X series SUVs, and the S70 sedan at the high-tech manufacturing hub AHTV, which also houses Proton’s new energy vehicle (NEV) assembly plant.
The Tanjong Malim facility has an annual production capacity of 250,000 units and consists of five main production divisions: Engine and Transmission Machining, Pressing, Body Assembly, Painting, and Final Assembly.
The Proton Shah Alam plant has been in operation since 1985, covering an area of approximately 83.48 hectares with an investment of RM370 million.
In addition to housing a research and development (R&D) center, it is also equipped with comprehensive testing facilities, including a semi-high-speed test track.
Throughout its operational period, the plant has produced over 4 million units of vehicles, including the iconic models Saga, Wira, Perdana, and Exora.

Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) and Giti Tire Malaysia recently welcomed the famous world record holder Rainer Zietlow to Malaysia at the Volkswagen Glenmarie showroom (F.A. Wagen).

For Zietlow, the partnership between Volkswagen and Giti Tire has been central to his progress so far. “I am very happy to have Volkswagen and Giti Tire alongside me for this journey – the performance of the ID. Buzz and Giti tyres has met my expectations,” he said.
“The driving experience and overall capabilities are very good, and I am confident that I will be able to complete this zero-emissions world record attempt. I am thoroughly enjoying my second visit to Malaysia, and this will definitely not be my last.”
