Crossword Genius

Drive, coming out of Malmo, to Riga (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

motor

'drive' is the definition.
(I know that drive can be written as motor)

'coming out of malmo to riga' is the wordplay.
'coming out of' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'MOTOR' is hidden in the letters of 'malmo to riga'.

(Other definitions for motor that I've seen before include "Engine - relating to movement" , "Move fast" , "Travel by car, engine" , "Car; travel quickly" , "Car; powered machine" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
