Dont think they will bring GDI model :S Last heard was 1.4 engine...

if they bring in GDI engine.. i would affect the forte market.. i think the highest spec would be the 1.4l engine only..

Forte is sedan while Rio is sub compact car. Dont think it will directly affect Forte sales...

the safety equip tat required by gov is related to the bumper. but im not sure isit true onot maybe its js an excuse from d sa to hold my order.

spec still duno yet. sa said got 1.6 engine, sunroof, reverse cam, push start,etc. price around 78k.

hope d info is true. if 1.4 is too small to me.
*

Rio is a B segment/class car. Same as mazda 2, fiesta, myvi, polo, yaris, prius c, jazz, etc.
Picanto on the other hand is a A segment car, same as viva, alto, etc.

Here is a spec sheet from Australia. The 1.6. GDI FC is better than normal 1.4
I really hope this car launched at a very competitive price. If 1.6 GDI like the australia, then i dont mind around RM70~75k. If 1.4, RM60~70k.

yea.. if it was the GDI version..it will be more power saving and more powerful.. but i dun think the GDI would be available in Mas.. sad.gif

GDi will not be here as the petrol quality(ron95) of m'sia is not suitable for GDi. according to SA. the 1.6 engine will be MPi or same with forte 1.6sx.

but still not sure yet untill august. hope to see 1.6 lah....!
*
rclxms.gif agree... GDI needs better quality of fuel to perform.. the 1.6 i think will be the same as the forte one.. 1.4 will be the same as hyundai one.. correct me if i am wrong smile.gif
anyway! really cant wait anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok, Bro.... This test is just purely to test the FC....

Yes the Diesel is not powerful at all..... But just look at the handling....

Bet, they will satisfy with the 1.6 petrol....

Simply coz petrol provides more excitement in this case....
