Great choice. To me its way safer than a MyVi. Safety is really underrated in Malaysia.

Is a 1.25 Kappa full aluminium engine w/thermal plastics intake manifold.
1,248cc DOHC, 16V MPI, silent timing chain, 80ps, 4k max torque, drive-by-wire, motor driven power steering

I tested already, far more responsive than 1.1 epsilon, good pickup even got 3 adults inside it. Cruising up to 110km/h, the rpm show only 3k (engine rpm like 1.5cc car)

From spec and test drive, it should got good FC. Can comparable to viva... Not yet got any feedback from local owner. Overall the built quality was higher than viva, solid, tough body and good door. Seat cushion was firm and comfortable. Path hole and handling was superb, can felt when over bump and road hole. NVH was far lots better than viva.

Just 1 thing concern, resale value and parts replacement. Other was good and higher spec than viva. Ask SA free front fog lights and reversed sensor (spec not equipped). Try to get discount and bargain at least RM 3,500.00 and above.

Agree. Since it is latest batch of Mitsu/Chrysler/Hyundai-Kia engine after Theta/4B11 series, I believe the engine is superior than T, H & N in performance and FC with good reliability and durability. Will conduct research on this engine when I have time. Want small compact car, go for i10 and the coming soon i20.

Confirmed safer than Myvi that will engulf in flame when crash. Previous cases of Myvi accidents, engine explode during collision and some caught fire especially the latest sad incident involving a 27year old student from Sarawak than BHP refused to lend fire extinguisher. Need to punish that Vios driver and BHP staffs who refused to borrow fire extinguisher, charge them for murder and assisting murder. Sources shown that Myvi catch fire during collision due to HT cables and power source being mounted too close to inflammable liquids in engine compartment. Usually done by those who forgo practicality for performance.

Goto hyundai-sime darby. Sure can tekan them cause local hyundai / inokom cause the owner lost a lot of resale value because their selling strategy.
