Kangadrool Supersonic August 28, 2015 Share August 28, 2015 All their models, big or small, brought in now are mostly in 1.5 cdi version. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburger Hypersonic August 28, 2015 Share August 28, 2015 as diesel is pretty common and a volume seller there, is the reliability better than that of a petrol version? 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyTaq 1st Gear August 30, 2015 Share August 30, 2015 Its a nice car and slightly spacious then Qashqai, seen it oversea. UK is having theirs in Sept and Wearnes are doing something i believe in bringing them in, not sure when, hope they don't jack up price... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohto Hypersonic August 30, 2015 Share August 30, 2015 With such small different between Cat A & B COE, I will rather they bring in the 2.0L turbo diesel. Then can have the proper power/torque of the Turbo diesel. I had test drive the 1.5L diesel Grand Scenic, felt it is under power for the weight. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think max is dci 130 (1.6L) for this version, my guess dci 110 (1.4L) same as the rest of the fleet. Max the CEVS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wt_know Supersonic August 30, 2015 Share August 30, 2015 the $$ difference is not just the COE few thousands ... 2L car cost is higher which means selling price is more expensive ... so target buyers are slightly different ... hence ... AD will weight the market demands With such small different between Cat A & B COE, I will rather they bring in the 2.0L turbo diesel.

Kangadrool Supersonic August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 (edited) Kadjar sounds like kar chia. For the French car fearing buying public, maybe this Kadjar comes with "built-in" kar chia at the boot. Jika rosak, tarik kar chia and ride away.

Watwheels Supersonic August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 To compete with the X-trail? If I'm not wrong the Kajar and X-trail are expected to share the same range of petrol & diesel engines. Although the French badge will offer a refreshing interior and exterior styling but when it comes to Sgp buyers they will still opt for the one with the Japanese badge.

Kangadrool Supersonic August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 (edited) Not surprising... Look at 1.2 QQ, many parts in the engine compartment are stamped with "Renault" while Renault Captur engine compartment is devoid of "Renault" stamps on the components. Only the battery, you see "Renault-Nissan". To compete with the X-trail? If I'm not wrong the Kajar and X-trail are expected to share the same range of petrol & diesel engines.

Tohto Hypersonic August 31, 2015 Share August 31, 2015 Actually if they use the Renault Latitude diesel engine for this car, it will be perfect. It is a Nissan engine and can have less worry. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_MR_engine#M9R_dCi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
