Borneo Motors did have the Avanza available locally for a short peroid of time before it was discontinued due to poor sales as compared to the wish then. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fungyee77 5th Gear February 3, 2020 Share February 3, 2020 The X70 is a surprisingly impressive car. Solid build quality, plenty of great technology inside and excellent interior materials. Frankly, cover the badge and put it next to the XTrail and the CRV, and it more than holds its own in a lot of ways. If its priced right, and people give it a chance, I think it has the potential to reposition Proton in a big way. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low road tax Currently only have sienta n freed Both r from 85k to over 100k. Thus if proton can come out 7seater mod with decent fc plus selling around 70k.

Pi fit come with lots of feature but no keyless la. The interior space also quite spacious n design also quite sporty. If I'm a buyer, I will choose fit. Can easily find spare parts n accessories from tb. If u mod, also can look quite sporty. Bezza n myvi if u drive in sg, ppl will mistaken u as malaysian. The car u drive will give ppl the first impression of u. So it's very important if u r a businessman or guy looking for partner. Many yrs ago, I ever experience this crap with I brought a Taiwanese chick to a carpark to collect my car, I can see her disappointment on her face.

Lol That’s for the current Perodua range vs the PI Fit which Perodua indeed is losing out with no M.I.C. latest tech input though. A different ball game altogether if the incoming new Exora vs the current Sienta if they are of similar pricing in future. 🤣...curious as to what ride was it for the disappointment on Taiwanese chick’s face...

Perodua’s current range still do not have latest M.I.C.’s input in order to compete. However-If the current Sienta and the future Exora aka rebadged Geely are selling at similar pricing-I would choose the latter anytime.😉 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheefarn 5th Gear February 4, 2020 Share February 4, 2020 12 hours ago, RevStarZen said: U mean the Innova? Nope. Innova is based on the Hilux platform and it drives and ride like one also. The Hilux platform also spawns the Fortuner, which is arguably the best iteration among the platform... but the pricing is just ridiculous in SG, and we cannot have the 2.4L CRDi in SG.. The petrol 2.7L is really weak and ancient in design. You pay over $170k for a dino drivetrain with no Toyota Sense suite and a ladder frame chassis. Innova just like the Avanza are designed for 3rd world countries where customers value simplicity and ease of maint. They are not expected to be expensive vehicles to buy... can't say the same in SG. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kind of girls... can forget about it la. Bet she doesn't even have a car in Taiwan... Well Perodua will offer the new Toyota Raize/Daihatsu Rocky very soon. It will be labelled as the new Kembara. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
