QUOTE(GaretLim @ Jul 20 2012, 09:59 PM) Tested the speedometer with my civic just now running parallel with same speed. Conclusion - pc speedometer is same with my civic = same with others car. Really thanks for the testing result. I compare with my GPS, PC show about 5km/h slower the GPS. I guess this is normal as car speedometer never synchronize with GPS, maybe due to GPS receiver & some calculation different.

QUOTE(deckbuild @ Jul 24 2012, 12:31 PM) How's the cabin noise of the car when travelling around 110kph? Also how noisy it is on cement road along Jasin to Melaka? Anyone try sound proofing their Prius C? Added on July 24, 2012, 12:34 pmQuite true, when met a high level thief, no matter what lock also useless. So far any one heard of Prius being stolen? Don't really think you need extra sound proof for Prius C, as even in 150km/h it feel quite also. Unless you very particular. I guess Prius without the original key remote is worthless. Don't thing is easy to get a duplicate. These day criminal don't steal, the rob you from house or petrol station. So whatever lock also useless.

QUOTE(deckbuild @ Jul 24 2012, 02:01 PM) Currently driving matrix, hope it will be less noisy than my current car  I can assure it quiet then others car, due to most of the time it run on EV or low rpm. Unless you rev the engine then you will have noisy engine sound. It is encourage you to test drive Prius C then decide whether you like it or not. Be remind of the long waiting period for it.

QUOTE(IluvProton @ Jul 24 2012, 11:06 PM) ..... ok I was wrong. anyone got try PC downhill? by theory, It will not consume any fuel since break alot Yes, downhill won't consume any fuel & still able to charge the battery. But haven't know any perfect downhill which don't have any up slope. I live in hill area, so for the 2-3km you can use EV mode all the way or can keep monitor your pedal to ensure it in EV. If you are good, sure can achieve 99.9km/l & your battery bar still full. (Of coz this is cheating)

QUOTE(wannabe @ Jul 25 2012, 12:21 PM) Was wondering on the below, anyone can enlighten? 1) Can the DVD AVN display Chinese Wording? 2) Anyone manage to get their Video Playing work while driving? How you did it? Heard 2 version of it, one is to "CUT" a wire that will detect movement. 2nd is applying new firmware to it. 3) Anyone manage to get a nice quality carpet cut? Was quoted RM 150 for a normal carpet even though we only have 3 pieces all together. Thank you. No ideal for the 1st 2 point. For the custom cut carpet, I manage to get it only RM80 (after negotiate, b4 RM90) but mine is cut to 4 piece. Probably yours is better quality.

QUOTE(Tomson @ Jul 26 2012, 06:47 AM) For all company Hybrid Car, Prius C are the TOP Ugly car. I get back Petrol more better than this car. I never Buy this car Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Of coz Lexus CT200h look better then Prius C, but problem is the price. I guess you are a Honda Hybrid fans which we not deny it had very good interior design but no match with the Hybrid technology compare Toyota. Yes, Priuc C interior design is suck.

QUOTE(keanutan @ Jul 26 2012, 08:35 PM) found out from the net also it was import to manufacture batch , it say start from jun got 2700 come in to malaysia .. the color batch thing is from toyota umw themself say last time call to ask why the delivery so long have to wait..then the next bathc will be on august and september.. But it didn't make sense, if the 1st batch is March, then why need to wait till June only get the car? Then if next batch arrived in Sept, does that mean some ppl will only get at end of the year, even though the car arrived in Msia.

Added on July 26, 2012, 10:48 pmhybrid doing 189 still get 16km/l some others normal car also cannot get this kind of milleage at highway low speed hihi ... I just check my A/P, the arrived Port Klang date is 10/5/2012 & I got my car 1 month later. It will be stupid & inefficient to take 3 months waiting for checking & install those stuff. Try check yours also? BTW the FOB value is 56k+3k(Shipping)=59k 30% Import Duty is exempted.

QUOTE(timeonce @ Jul 27 2012, 08:45 AM) So RM27k for Sales tax and UMW Malaysia commission hehe. ^^ . But FOB still got alot of things to pay right- like cost & freight + Insurance + Carriage fee + Carriage insurance + delivery at terminal + Place and duty paid.. I'm not very sure for other chargers & Taxes as it didn't mention other then the car value RM56k & shipping charges RM3k- Total FOB value RM59k Probably someone can find out more info. BTW the 97k is OTR price, should deduct others cost like insurance, Road Tax, register fees & etc.

QUOTE(gck @ Jul 31 2012, 09:24 PM) today i realised why my PC no power, damn it the damn coil carpet is limiting my throttle position..now i cut a whole can hamtam full throttle felt the differences.. also the tires are crappy, handling is shitty, interior a bit cheapskate. but save petrol la.. i felt like sampan driving the car. All of us might not realise if no Tax Exempted on Import Tax & Excise Duty. Prius C will cost RM170k-190k. The cost all go to the Hybrid Technology & Safety feature. So probably it sacrifice a bit the interior & seat quality. Actually we should be remind the main reason we don't feel the pick up is because of the e-CVT (actually accelerate is good if compare other car side by side) & with full throttle we still able to have FC 20-22km/L.

QUOTE(PriusC-i @ Aug 2 2012, 10:04 PM) seems like a few owners have raise tis rattling sounds issue..mine lucky enough..now doing 32xxkm mileage now the car is healthy without any weird sounds else than regenerative braking..i am sure due to i seldom on aircond to drive..coz i drive in early morning n late evening only for work routine... Normally we accept & ignore the rattling sound as long as not that frequent & irritating. Sure you will have some especially when you go thru uneven road or rocky road. My PC rattling sound is from the Radio set, SC said will take 1-2 days to test & fixed it. Rather ignore it if not very serious.

QUOTE(gfwong @ Aug 3 2012, 01:12 PM) I booked Apr and was told that the estimated date to get the car is somewhere in Sep... hope it's true this time Is really weird that why some people wait 5 months haven't got their car, some can get their PC in 2 weeks after booking. Thought Toyota always customer first? But seem only for those lucky one. I believe this must bring to UMW, you all still waiting should entitle some compensate or appreciation gift.

Just hope UMW will bring in this Prius+ (new member of Prius Family) This car technology is one of the top in its class. Wonder the small compact Li-Ion battery can last as long as our PC.

QUOTE(calyxhybrid @ Aug 9 2012, 07:14 PM) Mine, the annoying dashboard rattle sound is on the upper part of the left side dashboard somewhere in between the passenger airbag and windscreen. Have to wait till 5k service just complaint. Hope the local SC will be able to fix this imported model bcos my fren's Prius 1.8 facing more problem (extra new sound) after they open up the whole dashboard; managed to rectify the first problem but cause additional new sound in different area. Make sure the SC inform you how they rectify the problem. Please update me too.. QUOTE(jscyl1980 @ Aug 9 2012, 09:20 PM) Went to toyota SC subang jaya this morning 10am to fix the dashboard, passenger seat and driver power window rattling sound, took around 6 hours , dashboard rattling somewhere around HU and engine push start area fixed !! power window vibrate when on uneven road also fixed!!! but passenger seat still can hear a little bit sound during 5000km service gotta complain again  If the rattling sound is not annoying, I think better ignore it, cause these installation are by labour & sure will have some human error in fitting. Some more the SC is just try & error in fixing these problem, they may cause others sound after install back. Just hope for the best.

QUOTE(MonfereBlogspot @ Aug 17 2012, 01:26 PM) Just went to Toyota showroom to test drive this car. Loved this car. I am just wondering is there any problems with this car? What are the best discounts can be given by salesman? QUOTE(MonfereBlogspot @ Aug 17 2012, 09:15 PM) May I know is it true that this car is more powerful than Vios? Yes Prius C is more powerful, you won't feel the acceleration due to PC use e-CVT, but if u try compare with other car when pick up. Then you will find out how powerful is it. PC definately no problem go to Genting, few of us had drive to camaron & genting. If you like to have some SA contact with discount, you can PM me.

QUOTE(sbsoo111 @ Aug 24 2012, 09:26 AM) dont be too excited with the first 2 bar, the fuel tank is build in cone size, my self can get around 300km on first 2 bar, after it, u will get lesser millage. +1 Is better to measure by per tank & refill instead keep observe the petrol bar. Even the estimate fuel driving range is not accurate.

Guess at the end you will go for petrol engine car due to Hybrid is too new for them. Maybe a CHEAP nice Myvi or Alza will be more suitable your family need. 100% low maintenance & good resale value.

Sigh.. these day you can always place a booking, then if you change you mind, you can always get back your money in full. After booking, you will have months to decide & cancel booking as you like, coz most of us waited months only get our car.
