Just to share this info, this will give peace of mind to all Keyless Entry Car Owner.

Prius is least likely to be stolen.

vehicles are less likely to get stolen because they’re, well, boring. Other times it’s because they have hefty security systems, high technology or their parts aren’t worth much overseas. In the case of the Prius, there is a smart key involved (high technology). When the Prius is still it its factory stages, its smart key has a unique Key ID Code burned into its memory as well as a Vehicle ID Code, which is unique to the vehicle it is paired with. Without the key in the car, the vehicle cannot be operated - both the engine and steering wheel are locked. In fact, the only recorded thefts of the Prius are by people who either left their keys in the car or out in the open.

Prius 1.8 L engines delivers 2.4 L performance, if Prius C 1.5 L engines delivers how much performance??

Feel so relief after reading the articles. Thanks for sharing.

A months ago, someone tried to steal my neighbor new BM but bumped into another neighbor and failed. 2 weeks ago, another neighbor kena cars stolen, the guys broke into his living room, grab the keys and drove away a Mercedes, Camry, Alphard and Vios. A weeks ago, another neighbor Alphard and Mercedes also get stolen.

Damn scare my car will disappear when I wake up. Now have to keep the key secured (under my pillow).

Route: Cheras -> Kesas High way -> Glenmarie

This morning I was rushing time, off the Eco mode, pick up fast (not yet into the PWR bar, but close) and drove 100-120kmh. Reach in 30 mins instead of 50 mins, however the FC (25.8km/l) is slightly better than Eco driving style (25.4km/l), and 20 mins saved.

Follow (not tailgate!) a red PC (WXB **32) on the fast lane just now. Found out that red PC is quite HOT.

i afraid that some GPS traker need wire cutting to enable remote engine stop or something else.. and this could void the warranty..

and i think that.. it very dangerous to cut off engine remotely by GPS system during the car is moving coz the car will lost power.. no power steering, less brake and our car might be involve in accident..

To timeone & aragongon,

(1) My house is near Kota Damansara toll. I pay 2 toll charges twice daily (RM4.60/day) and hence no need to go through any traffic light to reach my office in Shah Alam where all road junctions mostly have a roundabout

(2) I normally leave early, meaning, minimum jam

(3) Going uphill I used petrol engine, going downhill I used glide mode as much as I could, flat road maximum EV mode.

Of course, it was not a 100% smooth journey, or else I could have achieved a better result. 

Save time, yes, but not really saving money as toll charges are expensive...
