Welcome to the March 2026 Edition of NXT. This issue’s main feature is all about the moment Singapore stopped “trying” EVs and started living them. The Singapore Motorshow 2026 was a full-scale declaration: 37 automotive brands, 200+ models, and electrified line-ups taking centre stage.
That matters because electric is becoming the default setting. With new names like Zeekr, Deepal, AVATR, NIO, and BYD’s premium arms (Denza and Yangwang) expanding the playing field, buyers now get real variety. Add rising adoption, island-wide charging momentum, and incentives that are evolving (not disappearing), and the story shifts from hype to refinement.
Under the Special Gear section, we have featured LG OLED EVO W6, Xiaomi 17 Ultra, Acer Swift 16 AI, Acer Swift Edge 14 AI and 16 AI, Dell Utrasharp 52 ThunderBolt Hub monitor, and Fujifilm Instax Mini Evo cinema.
Our NXT Clarissa has tested out the new Apple MacBook Pro M5. The 14-inch MacBook Pro with M5 is the most complete Mac Apple has ever made
Over in Test, from page 81, we went hands-on with three very different flavours of “new-school performance.” First up: the Acer Swift Air 16 — a sleek, do-it-all laptop that’s built for big-screen productivity without the backpack penalty.
Then we went dark with BrokenLore: UNFOLLOW, a psychological horror spiral. Finally, we locked into Quarantine Zone: The Last Check, a “Papers, Please” style checkpoint sim where one bad call can unravel your entire run.
Lastly, for NXT Big Thing, we break down how Singapore could quietly turn autonomy into infrastructure, starting with practical, geofenced shuttles and controlled city routes in places like Marina Bay and One-North.
NXT is available at all major newsstands, bookstores, and the digital version is available to download at magzter.com
