LTA To Revise COE Quota Calculation Method With The Aim Of Reducing Volatility
The LTA will adjust the method in which the quantity of COE Quotas are determined from August 2022 onwards. This should help to reduce the quarter-on-quarter volatility of the COE supply.
Currently, this figure is set based on the number of vehicles deregistered in the previous quarter, with one month lag time for processing and computation. This will change with effect from 1 August 2022 onwards - the number of COEs available for bidding in each quarter will be based on a rolling average of deregistrations over the last two quarters.

First Look: The All-New Range Rover Has Arrived on Singapore Shores
Land Rover has just unveiled its all-new Range Rover premium SUV for the Singapore market, and it’s everything we had ever hoped for from the British marque, and more.
Held at the Wearnes Automotive Centre earlier this afternoon, the launch event saw the new Range Rover being unveiled in Singapore for the first time, with three units available for members of the press to explore and interact with.
This being only the fifth generation of the Range Rover, with an illustrious history spanning over five decades, the stakes and expectations were undeniably high for the folks over at Gaydon, UK. According to the company, over 7000 people were involved in the development of the latest Range Rover, with 1,000,000 kilometres of real-world testing clocked and a whopping 7,000,000 man hours spent.
Along the road (no pun intended), Land Rover even managed to secure 125 patents related to the vehicle, which is quite a feat in itself.

ERP Rates Increase By $1 At Several Expressway Locations
In light of increasing peak hour congestion, ERP rates will be raised by $1 at several expressway locations to better manage peak hour traffic, with the increase coming into effect on 1 August.
In its announcement, the LTA stated that there has been a built up of traffic on various stretches of expressways since COVID-19 community and workplace measures have been further eased.

mReview: Audi RS 3 Sedan - Ridiculously Swift, Now With A Boot
For car aficionados, Audi’s RS line represents the apex of the automaker’s engineering and motorsports capabilities. Absurdly high performance figures, extreme designs, and state-of-the-art technologies are just par for the course for these vehicles.
And with the rise of the latest RS 3, Audi is determined to show everyone that even with electric vehicles quickly becoming mainstream, the internal combustion engine (ICE) party is far from over.
We featured the balls-to-the-wall insane RS 3 Sportback here on Motorist not too long ago, and while it is nearly identical to this Sedan, we believe that they are characteristically different enough to warrant separate reviews.
