QUOTE(dingdangdong @ Mar 22 2012, 08:31 AM) Prius C: -Only 3 years warranty on battery, and more expensive to change ~RM12K -interior size, width and length is same as Jazz, except for height, which is 8 cm less. -ancient gear shift box  , no CVT -stiffer steering and more abrupt braking -need to tow the car if battery failure, cannot use petrol as back up. Another CON for both: -No option to upgrade to leather seats, I am really hesitant to install them outside for fears of quality/warranty. -Although Prius C offers upgrade to the 2DIN multi media screen, its NOT the same one as used in the USA market. It doesn't have Entune software, which hooks to your phone for internet for Bing, internet radio, etc Prius C is using ECVT, which is actually Power Split Device, personally I think its technology is better than CVT, less moving parts and elegant design. If you plan to use phone for internet during driving, you will be disappointed, the actual internet experience during fast moving is like a nightmare, slow slow slow!!! better waiting for LTE to address it.

QUOTE(ppcbunny @ May 20 2012, 10:32 PM) Long term maintenance I not sure, but thinking of Toyota is having additional component called PSD and hybrid air-cond pump, really make me worried! PSD unit still I don't known what the hack is that. But for air-cond compressor, normally will kapuk around 5-8 years. Normal compressor will cost RM800, recond mb RM400, but Prius using Hybrid type compressor which it not widely use & hard to find recond replace. Cost how much? just estimate yourself la...  PSD is Power Split Device, it is also act as electronic CVT, PSD has less moving part, hence longer lifespan. Prius C uses DC inverter compressor, just like the household inverter air-cord compressor, it should be quite long lasting.
