Do It The Ride Way
8 Days|August 2, 2018

ZHENG GEPING is such a family man that he’s willing to give up his dream ride for a family-friendly, seven-seater MPV.

Do It The Ride Way

The name Zheng Geping has become synonymous with the terms “hunkle”, “fitness buff” and “#fitspo”. Just how much does the 54-year-old veteran actor live and breathe fitness? That answer can be found — in all places — his car, replete with workout gear for his after-work running and gym sessions. Coincidentally or not, Geping’s idea of a dream car — either a Jeep Wrangler or a Range Rover — boasts a tough, muscular exterior. Kinda like the beefcake himself. But the actor-slash-EP, who is married to Hong Huifang and has two kids, Tay Ying and Calvert Tay, is the epitome of a family man. Though he’s kept publicly silent about how the missus is embroiled in local showbiz’s biggest feud with Pan Lingling (read the full story on p16), he has plenty to say about his ride, and it all revolves around his brood. Family comes first when it comes to choice of cars, and he has sacrificed form for functionality, opting for something more practical. He now zips around town in a six-year-old Toyota Previa, an MPV (multi-purpose vehicle) with sliding doors, which he bought second-hand two years ago for over $100,000.
