Hafei Minz Popular?

[Friendstar]

I've seen really many hafei minz on the road.

 

with poor quality paint.

 

why is it so popular with singaporeans ah?

[Beei]

then you must be really lucky.. only 55 hafei sold in from Jan to Apr..

[Siyexcalibur]

I only saw one, a maroon colour Hafei Minz. Where you see them? North or South or East or West. I supposed it is the cheapest mini-bus. I see a lot more QQs.

[Comfy]

i saw quite a bit of it running on the streets too..

[Luv_presea]

i've seen lots too.. wondering why its so popular..

[Tiger21]

Maybe the Agent get people to drive these cars around to raise awareness and give the impression that it's popular

 

Marketing gimmick?

[Bearbear1494]

The biggest reason why somebody would buy the Minz would probably be the fact that it can seat 5 adults comfortably (take the 7 seater claim with a pinch of salt) while being CHEAP to purchase. Whether it'll be cheap to run & maintain in the long run remains to be seen as reliability may pose a bit of a problem after the first couple of years. My Kelisa can only seat 4 in comfort, with very limited leg room in the back. So people with bigger families & smaller pockets may decide to opt for the Minz.

It can sit 6 persons.2+2+2.

I tried before but all the car seats look small.

[Wave_rider]

My every can sit 2+3+1 .. keke.

[Scaglietti]

With top speed of 110km/h... they are not worried that they will get a speeding ticket that easily.

[Picanto]

Why wouldn't it be popular with Singaporeans? Singaporean like good deals - where else could you find an 7 seater for S$34000? That's S$4857 per pax - the most economical number! Even the Susuki APV needs the family to fork out S$59500/8 = S$7438 per pax! The Kelisa? S$38000/4 = S$9500!!! That's even more than an APV's number!!! Hahaha!!!

Good for budget seeker . But the car is so tall and slim and don't instill confidence of road holding but with a top speed of only 110Km/h, think should be ok. Whats more do we want, $34K in SG.

This is a valid point to look at certain car. Esp when the main criteria is to carry as amny passengers as possible. I found out about this calculation from a car magazine when they reviewed the Suzuki APV.
