Oh not to sure about the voice command. As seem when you dial need to press the screen. Hopefully they got voice command.

I think malaysia version is better than USA as we have motion sensor alarm. Meaning when u off ur car. if somebody break in it will trigger the alarm. U can try by winding down ur window and lock the car. And wave ur hand inside.

I book mine last weekend. My SA say I need to wait 6 months. TT. Orange colour. But he told me the one without AVN is ready stock ^^  but i rather want with AVN ^^ .

Wow.. i didnt know about the TPM.

Freebies is antithief tint and cash discount. How about u guys ?
*
Control at touch screen is ok, as long got d voice command features. Can u ask ur SA to try it again with a hdphone see whether VCC works or not.?
Why ur waitin list is so long, mine estmd 50days but i booked mine on middle FEB. Nego with ur SA for faster delivery (d AVN is an OEM set -panasonic
n install locally in toyota), n i assume nationwide waitin list for "C" is estmd slowest is 3mths.

Did u ask ur SA to request d HQ to connect d Dvd for it to function while vehicle is in motion? Outside ICE shop told me some SA can request it for their client bcos d car comes in empty n then just install d set with a safety connector to handbrake to disabled Dvd while in motion. They can ask them not to install d safety n just fix back d original connector. Actually is a easy job the accessories shop can do it by cutting d wire to override it but it will definitely void the DVD-AVN warranty. Try ask ur SA?

I advice u not to take d SA free window tint, ask for more discount. I m sure he won't give u a good quality Rm1k above tint, just like my fren's Prius1.8; d SA gave him a free 450/= tint n now after 1 year d UV heat rejection is still ok but most of tint edges starts to peels out evrywhere n will be worst when it ages.

I presume d discount is in d range of 500/= to 800/=. Some ppl got 500/= n some 700-800/=, even 1 new owner told me he got 1k.. not sure is true or not... My SA assure me d discount but not yet reveal to me bcos I don't want any freebies. So u took d free tint n what's ur cash discount amount?

Please give a review and feedback of driving Prius C, especially on handling, speed, and fuel consumption. Do you know how much per service and how long between service?

You should go & have a test drive, then you will feel all of it. Then further question can just ask SA.

ok la....driving highway, what do you expect? plus now need to adjust it back cuz it's been one month I was driving civic 1.8 to work whistling.gif

salesman only pump RM20 for me only. not even half tank.

@hawk.

you should test drive yourself, but for sure I always compared with my vios cuz my vios handling very good cuz of all the bars i put in...so now i am waiting bars for Prius C whistling.gif

Service is follow the normal car service. 1k, 5k, 10k.....no specific for hybrid car...just follow how you normally service your car.

Last time I test drive FC was about 15km/L, but if comparing to my Saga BLM manual FC is about 12-13km/L (not much different), and Saga BLM is more powerful & feeling the handling almost the same for Prius C. (maybe due to manual tongue.gif)

Now I'm struggling whether to change Prius C (2.5 times expensive of my car), cause I love my Saga BLM (low maintenance & cheap to drive) & lost 15k if trade in.

Only reason to buy is show off & more comfort & safety to drive.

Wow thanks for the tips. The tint he got for me a good grade A quality anti theft + heat or me from Japan and RM500 cash discount. Is that good enough ? As my family buy like 4 car from him before this.

Will rush him so. But he say estimate time only maybe earlier as he say factory can't produce on time.

For the wire cutting maybei can ask him next time i meet him ^^ . Is this good enough ? As i think freebies is not bad right.

The tint is 4mm and he ask me choose this or Vkool 6mm anti theft + heat tint .

U got a good offer whic add up to more than 1k. Make sure is a good grade n most importantly d V-Kool is an authentic one.

According to d ICE installer, we can request UMW to take out d safety sensor n fix back d original connector for d DVD to function while in motion. If don't request, UMW will not give us back d original connector then we hv to cut it. Not all SA will help. Don't do wire cutting, it will definitely void d DVD-AVN 3 yrs warranty. Although outside OEM set for toyota is compatible with d steering touch control, we still don't know whether it will affect other electronics in long run. Pls ask ur SA..

I just chk again, d waitin period is 3 mths n depends on color. Those booked before March is faster. 2 blue color hv to wait till July or Aug.

Hi everyone, mind telling me where did you guys book your Prius C. I book mine last week but the SA is saying the the waiting period is almost 6 -7 months. Know anywhere that can get faster and give good freebies/cash discount?

Just got my silver prius c from kajang just now. Drive around town till midnite lol. I must say that the spec of the car itself is nothing, very common, but the technology really wow me. The door alarm lock like iphone, can play swipe2. Haha. Still cant get used to it every time lock/unclock the car with just swiping the handle.
Can get around 20km/ltre if light footed. But i dont think my mom knows how to control the footwork.
On the road, i get really distracted when reading the info on the screen, although usefull, i cant give a damn bout it when driving or my car start going to another lane. Or maybe im still not used to it
The rest are pretty common and similar like how the other forumers has done their review.
All in all, the car is relly worth it. And most importantly, my mom loves it

Wow.. when you book it? Heard SA said, currently all booking will need to wait for 6mths.

A little envy to those who got their Prius C
