but forte is only 4 speed only? correct me if im wrong...

new facelift start in January 2011 come with 6 speed CVT
and other enhancement

the only useful feature i see is the airbags,other r pretty much useless last time my 97 wira oso got rear mirror auto dim.

wat important is the driving...inspira more focus on being a car...
but forte r more focus on being a toy ,juz ask urself if the start/stop and the auto dim failure in the future r u even bother to repair it?

No CVT, just plain 6 speed convention auto box. No idea on new features - the current Forte already filled with features. Hope to have HID with auto-leveling, hydrophilic windscreen.

but i heard from SA is CVT one..

new features
1) LED signal repeater (side mirror)
2) bluetooth function on steering
3) reverse camera rear view mirror
4) 6 speed gb
5) new grill
6) new gear knob
7) paddle shift
8) side mirror autofold

and many more which cannot confirm as below
-boots type a/t TGS shift lever
-cup holder( chrome lining)
-center console(new design)
-meter cluster graphic changed
-door trim changed
-seat pattern changed
-air ventilation grill changed

never ending inspira vs forte.

SA is dumb most of the time. CVVT engine yes maybe but not CVT gearbox. Just like Nissan SA keep saying their engine got CVT just like VVT-i. And another Nissan SA keep saying their gearbox is CVVT.

so, new facelift forte compare to inspira, still same result?

new facelift new price

The only Forte that use CVT is Forte Hybrid.

whao.. looks like a nvr ending feature add on lol. wonder the price will increase by how much

only rm4K to rm5K

1.6sx at RM86K (old price 82K) 2.0SX at rm97K (old price 92K)

New forte looks tempting with new gearbox

i asked ald....Naza HQ, is 6spd CVT gearbox....no more conventional gearbox...too bad, hw also cnt beat toyota's dual vvt-i and CVT-i's altis...
for both Inspira and Forte

Read about Hyundai CVT... so far used in Elantra hybrid. And plans to use the transmission on 'smaller' models. Since you said so as well, then I believe 2011 Forte would be CVT. Cool!

Weird that others country Forte facelift is having conventional 6spd auto gearbox.


p/s: If that so, then Hyundai's SA is better than Nissan's.

I still doubt that the FL Forte will be having 6 speed CVT... most likely 6 speed conventional gearbox.

hmmmm....guess HQ also knws nothing....
but at least a better 6spd conventional GB....
i think the 2.0 forte can fix proton's CVT gb right?? since they shared the same 4B11 engine block....not sure bt 1.6, hopefully can too...

They might share the GEMA stuff but mounting can be different. I like CVT more than dual-clutches.

But I feel with the CVT there isn't the thrill of driving especially during the shifting phases as well as the lack of engine braking as well. Feels weird driving a CVT the other day. It felt as if there is only 1 gear for the car.
