Top 10 automotive blogs & websites in Malaysia

Which are the popular automotive blogs in Malaysia? It is an easy guess that Paul Tan is the most visited automotive online publisher here, but who are the rest?

Having started in 2004, Paul Tan is one of the earliest bloggers here, there are more than 2 million monthly visits to its website to date.

Paul Tan’s throne is challenged and followed closely by WapCar, Carlist.my, Carsome (with aggressive marketing campaigns recently) which are all predominantly online car classifieds.

Behind those mentioned above, we are seeing Malay car sites namely Mekanika Malaysia, PanduLaju, Careta, and Funtasticko. No Chinese car sites made it to the top yet.

Interestingly, MotoMalaya is the only popular motorbike-focused publisher in Malaysia. The company behind MotoMalay also operates Bikes Republic and Piston.my.

Another interesting finding is that Paul Tan hides the YouTube subscribers count, so Mekanika Malaysia, PanduLaju, AutoBuzz are the top 3 automotive YouTube channels in Malaysia.

Meanwhile, Careta is topping the chart of the top automotive Facebook page and Instagram account in Malaysia, overtopping Paul Tan with 842K+ FB followers and 148K+ IG followers.

Here are the top 10 most popular automotive websites in Malaysia, scroll down towards the end of this article for rankings by Facebook followers, Instagram followers, YouTube subscribers.

Besides those listed above, there are also some other multi-categories publishers like BuzzKini, Maskulin which also cover automotive content but they are not included in our analysis here.
