Beginning his Twitter tirade in New Year, Tesla founder and CEO Elon Musk has criticized Singapore, saying the government there has been "unwelcome" to his electric car plans for the city-state. Responding to one of his follower's question on why Tesla was not yet in Singapore, Musk tweeted late Thursday: "Government has been unwelcome." This is not the first time Musk has complained about Singapore. Last year, he tweeted that he wants Tesla in Singapore but the government was "not supportive" of electric vehicles.

The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R is finally set to receive a generation update this month, and here we list out all the things that we know about the upcoming third-generation Maruti Suzuki Wagon R.

The next generation Maruti Suzuki Wagon R is scheduled for launch on January 23, 2019 and will be a big improvement over the current version.

The new leaked images showcase the design as well as the cabin on the model, while possibly revealing an all-new engine option as well. Reports suggest that the 2019 Wagon R could debut with the 1.2-litre K-Series four-cylinder petrol engine from the Swift and be specifically offered on the range-topping version. That certainly will be big motor for the tallboy hatchback that has always been offered with the 1.0-litre three-cylinder K-Series motor.
