How do we check wether the new car is CKD or CBU?

Vios and City no need to check... confirmed CKD

for any other cars... just look at the price of the same model... CKD's usually a few thousand cheaper than CBU...

Vios assemble at ASSB @ Shah Alam
City @ Honda Melaka

been to ASSB to install electricals.

wat is CKD and CBU?

Since the Honda assembled in Melaka.. how come the new facelift model they said Thailand flood cannot have car till may or june???

CKD - Completely Knock Down means it comes in parts and are assembled locally

CBU - Completely Build Unit means imported fully assembled

CKD - Completely Knock Down means it comes in parts and are assembled locally
CBU - Completely Build Unit means imported fully assembled

Most likely the parts factory in TH flooded so local assemblers can't assemble it.

because it needs the parts to be supplied from Thailand factory.

Doesnt seems like a fool-proof method..They can just put higher price and then offer "discounts"..

Never knew that lolz

CKD - Completely Knock Down means it comes in parts and are assembled locally
CBU - Completely Build Unit means imported fully assembled

ooo~ now I get it...

since I cannot choose others adee..

Anyone have exprience? Vios or City build better? dun want to regret afterwards due to bad assembling quality.

all depends on LUCK

Luck not always with me... sienz!!!

then buy a confirmed CBU car

honda jazz hybrid - made in japan
Prius - made in japan

elantra - made in korea

Nice nice, too bad budget already hit the limit at 90k .... city need to fork out more $$$

To those that have bought CKD cars before, what does it state on your geran kereta?
Kereta tempatan or any other terms they use?

No, ELantra is CKD.

When you buy one, it comes with an INOKOM badge.
