Finally get to see the Prius C today.

l think the dashboard and seats don't look as bad as in pictures. But it's the steering and door panels that look really awful. They don't feel good to touch too. The rear light clear plastic looks terrible in my opinion.

Too bad no test drive yet. If you are near Aman Suria, can go have a look. SA also said can get as early as 16th March.

ps I don't think it felt like CBU at all. Insight is much better made despite the difference implementation of hybrid usage.

went to showroom to have alook. well one thing in my mind : cheap. doesn't even fit into the 90k segment if not for the powertrain. the seats, interior are so freaking ugly omg. went to honda to look at the cr-z and total different league but of course the 20k extra.

so far, 1k discount is the best I got too. car can view and test drive at Toyota Balakong.

Personally, I don't feel the interior is that bad maybe because I drive a kancil. cabin sound is quiet, engine push start without sound and cabin sound while driving at speed 80kmh is quiet.

97k gets you a good hybrid engine.

forget looking inside any toyota interior...

I especially felt the "nice" plastic at the door with a slight trip of cloth....

such an "admirable" design...

and I meant it with sarcasm if nobody knows.

Saw the car in Toyota showroom in Larkin, JB today.

The interior quality is not that much inferior to my current Civic 8th gen. The issue, if any, is the new styling of white color hard plastic with green fluorescent strip at the doors and half of the dashboard area. This styling might be too futuristic for some, but could be good for people with a taste for novelty. Quality of all plastic (black and white) parts are better than seen on photos. But the steering wheel handle is plastic, not the leather type in normal Prius.

I did not get to see the default radio unit (show car is equipped with the optional dvd-avn system), so can't commend on its quality.

Other than that, the front seat cabin space is comparable to my civic 1.8 (surprisingly), but rear seats are much more limited. Default configuration include free aeroback and spotlight. Cushion materials comprise three type of textiles, no idea how it works in real life.

So I end up signing the contract, should be able to get the car in mid-march.

I'm driving a Kancil too, so I also can accept the cabin built quality, actually the Prius C dashboard design is Kancil alike laugh.gif

Bro, did you ask the availability of this car? how soon can get the car if I place order at Balakong branch?
