If you are the COO of the Foreign car makers, you will be quiet? This is price challenge....ppl tend to shift over when more and more Forte on the roads...It's so beautiful
For sure i will not quiet. i will busy planning to produce a better car (& of course with competitive price) to compete head to head with forte. Or at least upgrade current cars with the highest specs ever. I believe people will still buy T & H with their current price if they just put a specs equivalent to the Forte..that's Malaysian mentality towards T & H right?

hmm.. but how serious will it hit their market? naza's target of 500 units a month also dunno can achieve or not. TV n NHC combine sales already wat, 4 - 5k a month? malaysian perception takes time to change one ler...
one forte already enough to make these brands restless... b4 this the optima / elantra x20 / avante also didn't create so much havoc... all those under 100k also wat...

KM is really caught by surprice of the unexpected issue caused by the competitors. They initially thought that the 2.0 would be delivered to the customers in 3 months from the launch.
Guys be patient, it is worth to wait a while to enjoy years of driving forte.
The new Sonata is a damm good car, but I dont think you can get a very low price like forte. SD is greedy
I will not thinking twice to buy D Segment Sonata 2.0 (luxury specs) if they price it around 130k...
