Test drove it this morning:
Acceleration: don't expect a turbocharged acceleration lah.. but the power is there and enough to move the car with less effort. (Traffic light junction on the hill near Plaza Angsana, with 3 adults)

Space: front area as expected from a compact car but the seating position is quite high (i like it) , rear seats a little bit cramp due to the body design. Myvi is bigger because it got a almost square shape of body at the rear.

Top speed: It's JB.. tak boleh nak laju. Haha..

Accessories: it got few stuff that you can't find in a Myvi, Alto, or i10. I'm not a huge fans of touch screen so an OEM Kenwood Double Din audio is more than enough also it got Smart key, push start button, digital aircond with auto climate.

So how was the drive?
Holistically it's a good (but not a superb) daily city car where you only drive not more than 100kmh. Steering is very light! Seriously very light as I almost hit another car during a 90 degree turn. Maybe I'm too used to a hydraulic steering. Body roll is huge! Rear passengers need to hold on the holder if they don't want to be threw away during a wide corner, but wait there are none of them available! Only one for the front passenger and this is a full spec version. The only things that annoyed me is there is a mild whining noise during heavy acceleration. Tire noise, ok lah..they uses Bridgestone Ecopia as stock tires.

Booked this car (full spec, red color with aerokit) immediately after the test drive, waiting period is 1 month. By the way my wife is the buyer definitely not me..hehe.

this one same weight....100Nm torque

not just under, its alot under
850KG for CVT and 825KG for manual
same weight as kenari
planning to get it but need to test drive it 1st
the other car i was considering is inspira, i know its 2 very different car but i'm actually considering a 2nd car/long term car
the only downside i saw in this car is rear using torsion beam which is gonna be hella bumpy(i'm from sabah) and rear brake isn't disc brake
but considering the price, its still acceptable

drove this thing earlier today...

surprisingly this cute lil thing can handle, the steering feedback is alright but u have to live with the body roll once u commit yourself into the corner...

i would say this is an excellent city car as most of the pokey feeling comes within 2k-4k rpm region which is exactly where a city driving will fall into...

when put out on the highway, this car is totally out of place.. and being a 1.2, it has enough in it to haul itself up to 110 km/h but to maintain it is gonna be a strain on this lil buddy...

if u are looking for a pure city car, this is it..
easy to park, surprisingly quite fuel efficent despite me flooring the throttle during my entire 30 mins test drive...
only problem is the rear windscreen is already small as it is, the 3 rear headrest helps to make visibility even poorer....

btw, the CVT gear has a B mode...
i can't guess what is it...
the SA i test drove with told me that B is for Bukit... seriously, no joke...
i almost spit my mentos out...

build quality? its meant to be a budget runaround city car... dont expect wonders... the unit i test drove has inconsistent gap between panels...

i'm trying not to get inspira(which i wanted)
becuz if i bought the inspira(which is a great car), the car would mostly left in the parking and the installment every month ain't cheap
i'm still waiting for proton's nov promotion...if inspira get over 4k discount, i might consider back

Now, there's something interesting with this Mirage's transmission lever. You'll notice a B (Brake) symbol just after the Drive (D) mode. Mitsubishi tells us that this is for the engine brake mode, in which the engine will be locked in third gear at a significant differential to result in a more responsive acceleration. In going up an incline on a fly over, amidst which the transmission lever was shifted to B, the Mirage performed with confidence. On the decline, our foot were spared from stepping on the brake pedal as the Mirage can do an engine brake by itself

Last time I check in YouTube, a Thailand version of review where they tested it up to 150 (or 160kmh) with 3 XL adults using the full spec Mirage. I don't know if with Malaysian spec we can achieve that speed or not, but don't forget that it's just a 1.2L car made for city drive, so.. (if u get what I meant) tongue.gif

Unfortunately, there is no manual version in Mitsubishi JB for test drive.

Last time I check in YouTube, a Thailand version of review where they tested it up to 150 (or 160kmh) with 3 XL adults using the full spec Mirage. I don't know if with Malaysian spec we can achieve that speed or not, but don't forget that it's just a  1.2L car made for city drive, so.. (if u get what I meant) tongue.gif

Unfortunately, there is no manual version in Mitsubishi JB for test drive.
*
its totally possible
a 1.3L saga(stock) can go 160-180KM/H no problem...with a little mod, its recorded it can go 200KM/H
this mirage can go that kind of speed no problem
the only difference is that saga is way heavier..so at those speed, still quite stable
whereas when mirage went those speed, it might not be as stable

I got interest 2.5 from pb bank around rm 630. Dp 10 k. the car price is rm65.885 otr.basic auto idk bro.

went to Mitsu bangsar there.. They quote me around Rm 611-620 monthly for Basic Auto.. but i forgot, its with 10% deposit or full loan..
if with 10% deposit, i must pass it and take Mivi LB... hiks..

honestly i still prefer mirage than mivi lb coz i'm driving old mivi auto.. tired with myvi handling and auto pick-up.. feel so heavy.. but its never give me problem.. very reliable car..

i like the cabin feel inside mirage..
for rear seat, mivi still comfort...

invecs III cvt.. is it good?
coz what i hear most of cvt gearbox got problematic issue, like honda and proton maybe?

CVT is basically gearless, the speed increases with the RPM
which mean if u drive high speed, the RPM is quite low compared to 4AT
CVT no problem, i've never heard CVT got any problems
the honda case is becuz honda mechanic poured ATF into a CVT gearbox(which should have been CVT oil, not ATF)
proton's CVT also so far no problem
plus proton's CVT(punch brand) have been inside alot of chinese and european car...such as mini

not just under, its alot under
850KG for CVT and 825KG for manual
same weight as kenari
planning to get it but need to test drive it 1st
the other car i was considering is inspira, i know its 2 very different car but i'm actually considering a 2nd car/long term car
the only downside i saw in this car is rear using torsion beam which is gonna be hella bumpy(i'm from sabah) and rear brake isn't disc brake
but considering the price, its still acceptable

I would be extremely surprised if this tiny car came with multilink and disk brakes tongue.gif

even the australian review also said it would be best if it comes with rear disc brake

Myvi rear seat totally not comfort at all, i mean the rear seat sofa. My wife got one, especially for long distance travel, my ass very pain, and lot of sound come from everywhere.

But the rear seat head room of myvi thumbup.gif, no pressure sit at back.

never heard of this bank be4
but i think those low interest only falls on those not so popular bank
if a pay a little extra for conveniences of branch, why not..for me
plus, kk really hard to get parking

plus, i will never take ANY car for 9 years loan...its crazy..the car can last 9 years or not is still an issue
i'm planning to take 5 or 6 years

Hey there,

I am from Sabah as well,... visited the Mitsubishi Showroom today at Kolombong which the SA told me that the launching will be held on 12 Nov 12 nearby the Kobusak Branch.

I am planning to pay a visit on 12 Nov 12 because I live nearby and FYI the Kobusak branch will have service centre in near future. So, if you guys are stay nearby which is a good for you because you can place your car for service later. <-- SA told me this!

I have not test drive the car yet but the SA told me that he will drive to my place later and we can test drive on the evening. Actually I love the interior very much, the build material is somehow good for me. Love the steering and gear knob and the overall interior length and width is good.

The only limitation for me is the rear headroom is a bit disappointment for me, maybe this is only for me because I am BIG size tongue.gif ...

As I wishes to get the high spec with Aero Kit (RM 1999.90) but the SA said to me you can install elsewhere which is cheaper compare to them whistling.gif ...

FYI, it also comes with leather seats option with additional RM1500.00 brows.gif ...

just test drove it, like previous member say..yes, the steering really really light...no delay as i experienced
and its a pretty good car, the power is there with 4 ppl in the car, a/c is very cold...with that kind of FC, definitely a good buy
downside is the body roll, pretty obvious
the car provides a pretty smooth ride despite using torsion beam
planning to buy 1 if everything goes smooth....but 1 thing is unsure, is the leather seat option worthed?..cuz they never mention what kind of leather used

i haven't fully explored the car though...lots of other switches that i dn't know what its for, the SA also not sure what it was

top speed again, haizzz...didn't manage to test it
the branch that i went just now located in the middle of a busy street thn the time i test drive is soon, jam like shit
i only manage to push it until 80-85KM/H on a short stretch, rev-ed it to 3.5K RPM to reach that speed thn brake again
but still...at 80-85KM/H, its pretty stable and insulation in firewall done pretty good, didn't hear any loud engine noises at all
tomorrow?...if not wrong, mine here like wong638 said is next week monday
ya, when turn the roundabout, i feel the bodyroll that other ppl said, low the suspension..dn't know oh...maybe can be fixed by strut bar or anti-roll bar

if everything smooth, i might go and book this saturday and test drive again..and try those unknown switches
i saw thailand one said have that side mirror folding function, and theres that meter cluster brightness adjuster(i think)
and just now i didn't feel the door have locked, so not sure have that auto lock/brake lock or not

sorry mistake.. its monday 19th nov

what makes u want to book? means in term of point of your view..For u or ur wify?i feel the design is not timeless. its not futuristic . but bear in mind, design might ugly for some people, but with some pimp, good FC . its really KL car. lol

i cant imagine for those later uses manual and pump with the rumour says evo version engine 1.5. anti roll bar can be good factor. low down your suspension a bit. too bad, i booked the auto because of the keyless lol.

19 nov..late 1 week of sabah?
what makes me wanna book?...the FC is incredible...literally hybrid level while using full engine
no me or wify, buying it as 2nd car...anyone use also can
design, ok la..not bad...not ugly at all, important is aerodynamic
outside ugly is ok, you're not gonna be standing outside, most importantly is interior is nice
if like almera...outside looks ok but interior looks ugly and have to face everyday...better die
other factors like its a mitsu, using mitsu engine, using CVT(reliability)
too bad, ours doesn't have that AS&G start stop system which thailand and japan's have...that can literally boost the FC to 27.2KM/L(hybrid can run far away)
the boot, not bad, bigger than myvi and way deeper, theres a spare tyre below the boot somemore
u can find alot of feature that other car doesn't even have

you are good in car knowledge. actually this is my first car . and people keep asking me why not just pick myvi. its more on my ego and im doing a bit research to this car compare to the same class. the price for me is affordable with the features given. i just googled the as&G features . it will turn the price slightly goes up. the design for me is good. diff people will have their own opinion.

yes. i receive the email saying its 19th nov which i dont sure to go. dont forget to ask your SA to give u mini keychain of mirage. its cute.

mini keychain?....when give actually?
what offer did u get from your SA?

this car's FC...myvi can tapao..lol
just now the branch i went, they have a book type brochure..inside have alot of thing
1 of which is the FC
my only 14-15KM/L...no.2...thn top is mirage which is 21KM/L...imagine if the car came with start stop system...fuuuhhhh.....its like 10KM/L more than myvi
i think choose this compare to myvi isn't just FC, its also becuz of the ride comfort, ppl say rear passenger very uncomfortable and ride is floaty after 90KM/H
and u know what i saw in that book brochure, someone use pen and write top speed there
CVT = 175KM/H
MT = 180/185KM/H
and another abt myvi is, they're all over the street...why not buy something different tongue.gif
and i know myvi is cheap...49k in my place for 1.3L EZI
and power also higher abit

am not sure how they reach that kind of FC though
maybe combination of 3 cylinder engine + mivec + CVT + light weight and aerodynamic body
add it all up thn can reach
oh ya, another myvi advantage is their engine is 4 cylinder which mirage is 3 cylinder..something like kenari/kelisa

Why not? If you understand how they earn their commission I won't be surprise they can milk even more out of it. I bought my car with 9.5k discount from the same dealer 1 year ago.. other dealer only give me 5k max.. smile.gif

but i dn't think they can offer u so much discount personally...cuz they dn't earn that much from it
unless they sold tons of car that month already, thn only can offer u such discount
cuz the more u sold, the higher the commission
i saw how their commission structure works, to give u 3k discount, he must have sold ALOT of cars that month already
my place, i called alot of SA already....not even RM500 discount personally

if u read above abit..the answer is there
no, unfortunately our car doesn't come with AS&G start stop system
thats why the FC is 21KM/L
if with start stop system, it could go up to 27.2KM/L

For those who got the mini keychain can share some photos? By the way when you booked the car and if you are the first 500 person, when you actually get the ipod? Upon booking payment or when I get my car? My SA told me that I'm the 1st person to book it in Mitsubishi JB (Next to Audi branch)..

top speed again, haizzz...didn't manage to test it
the branch that i went just now located in the middle of a busy street thn the time i test drive is soon, jam like shit
i only manage to push it until 80-85KM/H on a short stretch, rev-ed it to 3.5K RPM to reach that speed thn brake again
but still...at 80-85KM/H, its pretty stable and insulation in firewall done pretty good, didn't hear any loud engine noises at all
tomorrow?...if not wrong, mine here like wong638 said is next week monday
ya, when turn the roundabout, i feel the bodyroll that other ppl said, low the suspension..dn't know oh...maybe can be fixed by strut bar or anti-roll bar

if everything smooth, i might go and book this saturday and test drive again..and try those unknown switches
i saw thailand one said have that side mirror folding function, and theres that meter cluster brightness adjuster(i think)
and just now i didn't feel the door have locked, so not sure have that auto lock/brake lock or not
*
I'm agreed with you, lowered spring & anti roll bar might improved the ride & handling but it won't be too drastically, due to the body shape. (but at least it's improved)

Booked this car for work transit only.. and it's Pasir Gudang. The road conditions are s**ks and bumpy! So I'll maintained the car conditions and roads here all are straight roads, can survived with a little bodyroll. sweat.gif

when i test drive this car...all i can say is ..mitsu is mitsu
local car remains local car
i can say the soundproof is done nicely, noise level is reduced by alot
if u stand outside with engine on, its quite loud actually...but sitting inside with door's closed...u hear nothing
driving it as well..noise it minimal
if u ask me, a myvi with soundproof like that, CVT, digitised aircon, 2-din HU, push start will cost almost the same as well

ya meh?....i thought almera is too overpriced....the highest spec is 80k+ is it?
only the lowest spec is 60k ish
the one that can match mirage spec is Almera 1.5L V A/T Sedan which is RM76,800.00
and the one with i-key which is similar with mirage is RM79,800.00(west malaysia price)
the lower 2 line...practically got nothing
and i know some ppl tend to avoid nissan becuz of tan chong aftersales

the things that i dn't like abt mirage
1. steering too soft (well, EPS is EPS)
2. body roll (fixable by ARB/strut bar)
3. narrower tyre (myvi is 175 while mirage is 165..but both 14")

this car is imported from thailand
that is 1 thing
this car will also be exported to japan, philipines, indonesia, australia (and europe very soon)
so no chance proton going to have chance rebadge it

headlight i think u mean the headlamp that mean light to the road
that i think is inside the engine bay, adjust above the headlamp there..dial type i think..2molo u check(i didn't open the hood be4 on mirage)
that dial if not wrong is the meter cluster brightness adjuster(i saw it be4 in other car, if i'm not wrong)
if u notice, 2molo u test drive...try switch on the headlamp(usually if normal car, if u turn it on....the meter will light up)
in mirage...1 tried twice already..it didn't light up
the 1st test drive...i thought it was broken(the guy even ask the mechanic to turn it on, still fail...i was LMFAO at the moment)...2nd test drive still the same
but 2nd test drive i notice the digital a/c there...if i turn off the headlamp, the light will on(very minimal but can see in daylight)
simply mean the headlamp work but the meter didnt light up
2molo u test the headlamp throughly and report back and see how

add: and dares...test it too...very weird...somehow i think the meter is light sensitive

You mean when you switch on headlamp during daytime, the instruments light did not light up. But if you switch off the headlamp during daytime, the instrument lamp switches on?

i'm not sure becuz daylight its bright but when i switch on the headlamp, the instrument like the digitised a/c display have effect...it will on and off the light...very minimal since broad daylight but i saw it
pretty much mean it is working
whats weird is the meter cluster...usually it will light up if i turn it on
but in this case it didn't....like nothing happen
1st test drive, i tried it, didn't work...weird...after finish the test drive, i ask the SA to turn it on, he failed...he ask a mechanic to come and turn it on...failed again
i literally laugh on site
2nd test drive, test the same thing..same result but when i stop, i see other part of the car, it have an effect when i turn on the headlamp..meaning the system is working
just that the meter cluster won't turn on, theres no light whatsoever....i tried to switch the meter cluster brightness adjuster up and down...nothing
thats why am weird how the meter cluster light works...maybe its light sensitive, only turn on at night

i think most of the ppl won't go test the headlamp since test drive are conducted at daylight...but i purposely go turn it on and see how it looks like and found this issue

ya meh?....i thought almera is too overpriced....the highest spec is 80k+ is it?
only the lowest spec is 60k ish
the one that can match mirage spec is Almera 1.5L V A/T Sedan which is RM76,800.00
and the one with i-key which is similar with mirage is  RM79,800.00(west malaysia price)
the lower 2 line...practically got nothing
and i know some ppl tend to avoid nissan becuz of tan chong aftersales

the things that i dn't like abt mirage
1. steering too soft (well, EPS is EPS)
2. body roll (fixable by ARB/strut bar)
3. narrower tyre (myvi is 175 while mirage is 165..but both 14")


Added on November 10, 2012, 11:00 pm
this car is imported from thailand
that is 1 thing
this car will also be exported to japan, philipines, indonesia, australia (and europe very soon)
so no chance proton going to have chance rebadge it

3. narrower tyre (myvi is 175 while mirage is 165..but both 14")

just test drove mirage, erm, the car build is quite solid but i not really like the setting of the absorbers, not really rigid and feel like i m driving a kelisa or viva actually. handling is so so, steering is light, nice for city drive, engine and gearbox noise was quite noticeable, the signal stick is very hard to push like gonna patah, interior is good, spec wise.

about the headlamp switch on and meter panel light on problem, i tested just now found that the meter panel will light-on at the same time when i switch on the headlamp, and the level headlight switch is headlight, not the meter panel, according to the SA la.

hmm...thats weird
mine both car also didn't
and i research, i saw a thing in the brochure stated "ETACS"
apparently, it detects light and will react to it
like if u go through a tunnel, the meter light will switch on and the headlight will switch on
as for the 1-4 switch, i dnt think is headlight...cuz have 4 setting...i saw these kind of switches in other car be4, its to control the brightness of the meter...not sure in this case as cannot test it

the engine noise is noticeable but compare to p1 and p2 car, its consider quite already, and u havent reach high speed where the RPM is low
and the steering, well..typical EPS..its light but it wont stay light....after i reach a certain speed, it will stiffen
well, this car of course not as good handling as kelisa...design for comfort

Jz came back from test drive with valence. The meter cluster light confirm is switched on with the headlamp, and the mysterious knob next to the side mirror controls are to adjust the headlamp leveling. We confirmed that when the SA placed a cardboard in front of the headlamp and we saw the lights reflected on the board moving up and down, as well as the motor sound from the mechanism.

I was surprised a car in this segment and at this price came with that feature, actually laugh.gif

Anyway, the test drive was brief, but I can say the power is adequate but the engine sound is almost as loud as the viva inside the cabin. The bodyroll was quite noticable, not helped by the fact that the seats are almost as flat as the Myvi. My butt literally slided to the right when making a medium speed left turn.

Other than that it is a solid little car with comfortable seating position compared to the Myvi and the real plus point is probably the FC. There is nothig that screams you must buy this over the Myvi, it all boils down to your personal preference. For me, the Mirage will be more successful in its role as a city car than the Myvi.

i know the meter cluster glows in orange but twice i turn it on, nothing came up....i drive both in broad daylight
and yeah, the body roll is quite noticeable becuz it doesn't came with a thing call stabilizer bar
considering ppl here doesn't take a left/right turn that fast here, its quite ok for me(upgradable next time too)
and the headlight switch, there is 1-4, the higher the number mean the higher the headlight..is it?

for the sound, did u cruise it?...at 80KM/H, the RPM is @ 1.65k only which makes it quite quiet
well, for me..what u pay is what u get, initially wanna get inspira(great car) but thn i'm getting a 2nd car...not main car
sometime, its just gonna sit there(or the saga)...so since this car have great FC, low maintaince and its not a local car...might as well get this
next time when got money and getting a main car...thn only consider something like inspira

Hmm...when the headlamp was not on the meter cluster was not lit at all, it only become lit when I switch on the headlamp. As for the headlamp leveling, I dunno which number is what, I only know if you roll it up the headlamp level with move up tongue.gif

Dont get me wrong its not a terrible car, its a good alternative, if more expensive alternative, to the Myvi. Like I said, it all boils down to personal preference, the are plus and minus points between both cars. Personally, I prefer the Mirage as a small city if only for the CVT brows.gif just add some bars and wider tires and we get an annoying little bugger zigzagging through traffic. It is surprisingly spacious too!

Didnt have a chance to cruise it as it was an industrial area and it was a very brief drive.

as for the tyre...yeah..the 14" is also 1 of the reason i accept this car, not too small BUT a little too narrow
and i notice this car's side mirror is huge but sadly doesn't come with that auto retractable function like thai have

anyone knows the mivec in the engine for mirage has dual vvt on intake and exhaust valves as similar to the 4B1 (lancer engine)?

btw, it the same engine used in later version of smart fortwo, 21km/l should be achievable smile.gif might check it out, is the space good? if its as small as viva/i10/alto etc, this car is a no-no for me.

abt the mivec part, am not sure...maybe ask "dares"
that FC is achievable by aerodynamic body, CVT, lightweight body and small CC engine
i think if u know how, it can go way over 21KM/L...theres a FC contest in thailand...the highest/winner have 55KM/L

the size...no....it looks like viva/i10 in picture, but its not as small as u think
the size is somewhere around myvi/fiesta/yaris
just go check it out yourself and test drive

the higher the number, the lower the light beam.

it is to compensate for the passengers weight.

more passengers, car sinks backwards, headlights too high--->blind traffic.

so, when u put 4, it is at it's lowest.

hey, proton inspira also has this. tongue.gif

Vvt only on intake valves.

It s quite spacious in terms of legroom. But not as wide as Myvi and less headroom. But overall I think it is bigger than viva.

No, not cheap at all.

There arent many options with multilink and rear disc brake in that price range. Preve and Inspira too big for a usually 2 person car, didn't want T & H. Always loved the Fiesta since my first test drive, and it handles better than the Forte, so just bit the bullet and got it.

The major factor that sealed the deal was the recently upgraded 5 year warranty.

Anyway...sign0006.gif sign0006.gif sign0006.gif sign0006.gif

i'm not sure for a new car is it normal compression
but late model like honda vtec b16, toyota blacktop 4age, mitsubishi mivec 4g92 compression around 10.5-11.0 need ron97 if u wanna feel more power

Most cars today got 10.X:1 compression ratio.. and yes after pumping RON97 you can feel the differences. But depends on the manufacturer it self, like VW they did mentioned that their TSI engine will only give it's true potential by using RON97.

Higher compression ratio engine also means fuel save and more power(theoretically). So far the highest compression ratio on a OEM NA engine that I know is the Mazda Skyactive, 14:1 next the Ford Duratec, 12:1. (VW's TSI engine compression are not so big either but with the help of the forced induction system it boost the compression more)

when i test drive this car...all i can say is ..mitsu is mitsu
local car remains local car
i can say the soundproof is done nicely, noise level is reduced by alot
if u stand outside with engine on, its quite loud actually...but sitting inside with door's closed...u hear nothing
driving it as well..noise it minimal
if u ask me, a myvi with soundproof like that, CVT, digitised aircon, 2-din HU, push start will cost almost the same as well

yeah I love the sound proof. I was testing it at pyramid last 2 week. the big even speaker just beside it. the sound lowered by approx. 70% .

As far as I know, ABS always apply on all 4 wheels. Difference is how many channels and how many sensors. From wikipedia

QUOTE
Four-channel, four-sensor ABS
This is the best scheme. There is a speed sensor on all four wheels and a separate valve for all four wheels. With this setup, the controller monitors each wheel individually to make sure it is achieving maximum braking force.

Three-channel, four-sensor ABS
There is a speed sensor on all four wheels and a separate valve for each of the front wheels, but only one valve for both of the rear wheels.

Three-channel, three-sensor ABS
This scheme, commonly found on pickup trucks with four-wheel ABS, has a speed sensor and a valve for each of the front wheels, with one valve and one sensor for both rear wheels. The speed sensor for the rear wheels is located in the rear axle. This system provides individual control of the front wheels, so they can both achieve maximum braking force. The rear wheels, however, are monitored together; they both have to start to lock up before the ABS will activate on the rear. With this system, it is possible that one of the rear wheels will lock during a stop, reducing brake effectiveness. This system is easy to identify, as there are no individual speed sensors for the rear wheels.

One-channel, one-sensor ABS
This system is commonly found on pickup trucks with rear-wheel ABS. It has one valve, which controls both rear wheels, and one speed sensor, located in the rear axle. This system operates the same as the rear end of a three-channel system. The rear wheels are monitored together and they both have to start to lock up before the ABS kicks in. In this system it is also possible that one of the rear wheels will lock, reducing brake effectiveness. This system is also easy to identify, as there are no individual speed sensors for any of the wheels.
EDIT: correction, the last one (one channel one sensor) only have ABS on rear wheels hmm.gif

2.95?...WHAT blink.gif
are u kidding me?...u better consult your CIMB agent
2.95% local car level already..not import car
even the previous car that i wanna buy..an inspira also only 2.7%

if i'm not wrong...IF...the less u loan, the interest rates are supposed to be lower..even if i'm wrong, 2.95% seem ridiculous for an import car

my experience with loan is
loan approve doesn't prove anything at all
AS LONG AS U haven't sign it, everything is negotiable
imma nego with my agent 2molo until the lowest possible
UNLESS u signed it thn nothing u can do

I thought puspakom anything over 70% VLT will okay.
I just wanna beware while tinting the windscreen and window. very hard to spot if the windscreen merely 90% VLT. If pre-tinted I don't think they use any film, they apply terus on the windscreen.

So if I assume that the windscreen is not tinted (but it was 90% VLT tinted) then I go apply 70% VLT film. Making it total 60% VLT which is illegal. Since you guys getting the car early, please help ask your SA biggrin.gif then share share here.

PS: I don't mean to alarm you guys, just heads up biggrin.gif

if u say pre-tinted like those in proton...they still use film
only not so good film and workmanship is also a problem since they can't set aside enough time for each car
for example, tinting a whole car with good workmanship would require few hours and a factory produce like 100++ car every day
if each car needs few hours, thn in 12 hours shift, u can only tint not even 10 cars...so to be able to catch up with the production, they spend less time for each car, making each car having workmanship problem(like bubbles)
so it is still better to come with no tint and u go tint outside

and puspakom is like JPJ, no matter your tint is legal or not...as long as there's a tint and their mood isn't good that day
that tint is gonna be koyak on the spot
and FYI, the windscreen itself if not wrong already have 5% VLT without any tint

Oh well, not many brands offer tint right out of the factory. AFAIK only Proton does it, P2 only does it for the Myvi Extreme IINM.

I understand your point, but I wasn't meant this lol

Is kind of habit of every ppl to tinted their new car no? So shouldn't you need to know if the windscreen is pre-tinted or not b4 select the right film for it?

booked before seeing the actual car,
tested after show car arrived,
then canceled booking tongue.gif

here's my test drive verdict
handling is like Kelisa, but body size more or less like Myvi
engine kinda noisy for me, even when inside the car while engine idle
but still better than Myvi's lawn mower
overall built quality aren't what we expected in an "imported" car
feels cheap, especially the back seat cushion, feels like those cheapo foam mattress that will get flat after a while.
In order to lighten up the car for fuel economy, they have sacrificed many things, making the car feels flimsy for me
Myvi's build quality are much better and more solid.
For me, aint worth the price they are selling

the engine is indeed noisy, cant expect much from a 3 cylinder engine
but i think they did the soundproof quite good actually, outside its quite loud, inside noise is minimal
well, can't expect much from a 67k car(full spec)
even almera full spec also 75-80k already

if driving a compact car experience..myvi is ok for me.1.5 engine is very nice..engine smooth and not noisy as PREVE CFE. GPS screen also very nice to use.(even some people said it is a CAP AYAM HU, but for me indeed myvi extreme HU is more better than PREVE CFE HU, which branded BOSCH HU - that i currently use)

only the other part build quality...like leather seats...door trim panel...is not good...maybe i got a lemon unit..dont know la..

benang jahit leather seats ada yang terkeluar..., door trim rapat x rapat....

and after the problem reported to Perodua SC>.they make it worst...the dont put the door trim panel properly to the place...and said it cant be place perfectly anymore since it useing clips......WTHELL..

I test drove both.

I cant speak for the build quality, but I can tell you the Mirage does not feel underpower for a 1.2l 3-cylinder. I was carrying the SA and 2 other big guys in the car during my test drive. The CVT being a CVT, it is not as punchy as the Myvi's 4AT, but it does not lag too badly either.

It is meant as a comfortable city car, not a performance car even if it carries the MIVEC badge. I think the CVT made a world of difference for the puny 1.2l engine.

Other than that, for me, the NVH and plastic quality is equal for both cars. Mirage kinda loses out by not providing a touchscreen HU as an optional accesory.

Why here got so many basher that never look into the Miirage spec and never go look at the real car.

Just bull shxt by looking at the photo. doh.gif

Viva size??????
Myvi's build quality are much better and more solid?????
Myvi spec much more better then Mirage????

Many people say myvi spec win because myvi got this DVD touch screen system with navigation.... shakehead.gif

What I like Mirage are:
1. ETACS system.
2. 4 Wheels ABS.
3. Key less entry and push start.
4. Auto Air-Con.
5. Bigger rear leg room.
6. Rear sear are nice and comfortable.
7. Body design to achieve NCAP 5 star.
8. Boot size is big and deep compare to other same class.
9. CBU.
10. Good FC. (This need real owner to prove it tongue.gif )

What I not like:
1. Rear head room are small.
2. The door to open the boot is small, hard to put bigger thing into the boot.
3. No arm rest.
4. No steering audio control.
5. The door handle still using old design.
6. The back window is small.

the engine is indeed noisy, cant expect much from a 3 cylinder engine
but i think they did the soundproof quite good actually, outside its quite loud, inside noise is minimal
well, can't expect much from a 67k car(full spec)
even almera full spec also 75-80k already
*
u compare almera with mirage ? its different segment car ..LOL

like comparing Kancil with Myvi....

booked before seeing the actual car,
tested after show car arrived,
then canceled booking tongue.gif

here's my test drive verdict
handling is like Kelisa, but body size more or less like Myvi
engine kinda noisy for me, even when inside the car while engine idle
but still better than Myvi's lawn mower
overall built quality aren't what we expected in an "imported" car
feels cheap, especially the back seat cushion, feels like those cheapo foam mattress that will get flat after a while.
In order to lighten up the car for fuel economy, they have sacrificed many things, making the car feels flimsy for me
Myvi's build quality are much better and more solid.
For me, aint worth the price they are selling
*
myvi engine lawn mover ? which model ? i own myvi 2010 model and the engine noise is quite silent when u sit inside...bear in mind , myvi only Rm50K ...dont expect much....

I test drove both.

I cant speak for the build quality, but I can tell you the Mirage does not feel underpower for a 1.2l 3-cylinder. I was carrying the SA and 2 other big guys in the car during my test drive. The CVT being a CVT, it is not as punchy as the Myvi's 4AT, but it does not lag too badly either.

It is meant as a comfortable city car, not a performance car even if it carries the MIVEC badge. I think the CVT made a world of difference for the puny 1.2l engine.

Other than that, for me, the NVH and plastic quality is equal for both cars. Mirage kinda loses out by not providing a touchscreen HU as an optional accesory.

i remember that SA ask u install touch screen HU outside laugh.gif

1. RM1500...dn't know consider expensive or not
2. it stated "smart fit" leather seats...it never actually mention what kind of leather they're using

you can take the car while waiting for the accessories, after the accessories just go to the workshop and install it.

Got my car yesterday, drive in highway in rainy condition to the max 110 km/h, car still stable.

Hi all, I am planning to buy this car, but not sure about:
1. maintenance
2. fuel consumption
3. spare parts

I had test drive the car, but can't drive out of the showroom area, so don't know about the Noise and vibration level, but I would said the handling is pretty well. I can make smooth small turning effortless, and since is low speed, the noise level is acceptable for such a small car.
I am considering car below 70k, so here is the list of cars:
1. Proton Preve
2. Suzuki Swift
3. Perodua Myvi
4. Peugeot 207
5. Hyundai i10?
6. Mirage

But I don't really like Myvi, just personal dislike sad.gif

Alto 1.0 has lower power-to-weight ratio compared to the Mirage, which in turn has lower power-to-weight ratio than Myvi 1.3.

That said, Mirage has an edge over the Myvi which is the CVT, which allows it to maintain peak torque much more easily than a 4AT.

On paper , Proton Preve win hands down in terms of power, handling, driving experience, comfort. But if FC is really your concern, that wouldn't be your choice as the FC is on the heavy side especially city driving. Spare parts & maintenance should be fine for the Preve. Finally the choice is on you. Mirrage would definitely have great FC since it's an ECO Car, that will do good for you if you are really concern about FC

depending what do u want from the car
u want power and handling = saga FLX SE
u want a power but u want a toyota engine with better FC = myvi 1.5
each car has their own pros and cons..i compared be4...really hard choice..it really depends what do u want from the car

i at 1st considered preve as well
went for a test drive...found out theres quite a few very serious inconveniences and a few quality issue that i have to face everyday
so end up didn't bought that
but power, handling, driving experience and comfort is quite good

Yes, you are right, on paper, Preve is the best for money at that range. Drove Preve for a week, and feel it is a bit underpower and very heavy and slow pick-up. As fuel consumption for city drive (Mid Valley area) was about 8.5km/l, which I think is not too bad. The only complain I have on the Preve is the engine noise when try to over take ( > 2k rpm) and need to press more for it to start moving tongue.gif

I am actually looking for a daily car to work, but I don't really work in city nor trap in traffic often. wink.gif

but when i went test drive, that key fob is inside a plastic like those toys in tora
and only 1 key is inside the plastic..thats why asking to make sure
*
D whole key assembly is made out of 2 parts
- ordinary key slotted into d case
- case consisting of alarm/keyless system/immobilizer

From wat I was told during d test drive, d slot is mainly for charging d unit but u can leave d whole thingy in ur pocket or s'where nearby. D key is used when d remote unit's power is too low.

But as a 3 cylinder, pickup is quite good for a 1.2 n tat CVT really keeps d revs to a minimum unlike conventional transmissions. I think it was revving about 2k/rpm around 100kmh. Down side is tat being 1 cylinder short, harsher vibration n engine note is part of its natural characteristic. U can pop d hood n hv a look at d vibration on d top left engine mounting during idling. However I'm very sure some aftermarket sound insulation will on d firewall will help cabin NVH a lot.

Unlike wat some claim tat handling is poor, I'd say it easily feels more assuring to corner compared to P2's best seller. EPS speed-sensitive steering is super light at low speeds and gains weight as speed increases. If d new owner is willing to replace d eco tires wit 1 larger size, I'm very sure it would b even more fun to drive.

Although the Mirage is quite zippy since very small turning radius, one thing i concerned is the road grip of the car as the tire thread only 165mm wide. hmm.gif

As alien said, depend on really what you looking/demand from your car.
Some ppl suka lumba here and there, no point they go buy a low cc car.
Some ppl love big confortable space in their car.
Some ppl like me, that work in city, this car is good. Always stuck at traffic, travel here and there a lot. It does gives you a big difference in your petrol bill.

So its really depend on your entirely.

If you increase the tyre thread to 175mm wide, your FC will be suffer a bit, since the road surface resistance against the tyre had increased also. sad.gif

Kinda a tradeoff, if you want better handling, your FC will decrease. hmm.gif

There is a slot in the center dash to plug the key fob if the fob battery is flat. you can use the key to open to passenger side door in this situation because keyless entry wont work.

ahh...that hole...i saw it but the SA never told me anything abt it
i personally though its use to put coins biggrin.gif

i went to 2 different branches...2 different SA also didn't tell me much
they're either
1. poorly brief of the car's feature or
2. didn't even brief be4(need to explorer the car themselves)
both test drive, they just put the keyfob in the cup holders and since its inside a plastic, can't test as well

Although the Mirage is quite zippy since very small turning radius, one thing i concerned is the road grip of the car as the tire thread only 165mm wide.  hmm.gif
*
Got a few factors tat pretty much set d grip levels of tires. In d Mirage's case, d Bridgestone EP150 eco tires r meant for minimum rolling resistance to aid low fc, so u can bet d its compound is harder than performance tires thus less tolerance to hard driving.

Even so d test drive was in wet weather, n I find d amount of grip on par if not better than most entry level Goodyear, Dunlop, SimeTire or GT Radial rubber fitted to <RM80K cars fresh from d factory.

good for you..!!
well...tell me more about the car...especially the noise from outside mostly engine noise..heard some people say this car NVH worse....some more how about the stock sound system..nice or not...???
anyway...you pick manual or CVT,,??
*
my is cvt gs model...to me the noise very nice n quiet ady...there is noise but is very less compare to avanza n vios...coz i have an avanza n vois in house...their noise more den mirage


de car is nice handling...n easily up to 100 n u dun notice n ur acc pedal juz press a bit den ady up....today i drive highway from jb to melaka...den speed n handling is nice but i juz maintain at 100-110 oni coz de car still new n under 1K mileage.

honestly tis car is gud for tis type of pricing...if anyone aspect more in term of power, noise or handling better den tis...of coz higher price had to paid...eg car like camry, accord, n many more higher quality n price.

Nearest to stock diameter is 195/50/15. But the extra width may cause the tire to hit the wheel well inner wall or mudguard when making full turns, depending on the offset.

Alto 1.0 has lower power-to-weight ratio compared to the Mirage, which in turn has lower power-to-weight ratio than Myvi 1.3.

That said, Mirage has an edge over the Myvi which is the CVT, which allows it to maintain peak torque much more easily than a 4AT.

Just Tested the car.

City normal drive speed from 0 - 70 kmh not bad quiet but when the wack the car to more than 3k and you can hear the engine noise damn loud.

tyre noise is loud not sure why may be new i think.

the sound insulation is so so only a bit batter than myvi.

gear is smooth like a wind and the respond is fast.

i may get this car but problem are the booklet they give me got written there for basic version there only white and sliver colour other must be in full spec.

i did check with the SA they said the same ...

interest rate for 9 year they offer me at 2.48

For Services 1st year or 20k services is fully free part and labour is included.

dn't think there is, dn't think it will have as well
usually test drive unit are the highest line ever, won't be the lowest
but there are review of the manual version in paultan and some australian review site

can copy one meh?...i think u copy, the material cost also the same
if u can get the measurement, thn u can make la...thn good
what i want the most is the window visors...i think many here want as well
cuz its part of the package/kit...thats why can't get it

yeah, to be frank, I just need window visor, scruff plate and ralliart fuel lid.

Ralliart fuel lid - RM150 - okay la, cheap cheap
chrome set - RM750 - although just need the scuff plate, the price is still okay
aero set - Rm2k - just wan window visor.... no worth getting whole set..

got my car...a few more things to add due to longer drive
1. 0-40KM/H is very fast...no need to press alot, the car will sprung to 40KM/H without u knowing it....yes, definitely a city car
2. this car handles pretty well, only the bodyroll is quite annoying
3. u won't even know what speed you're going....its very quiet
i tried going 100KM/H..its stable depending on condition(road condition, wind condition)..but if its stable, u wont even notice you're going that fast since its is quite quiet inside(compare to my 4AT saga, it roars already)

and a few things to ask...its said that there is a one touch lane change..meaning tap on the signal thn it will blink 3 times...it will have 3 times sound inside or not?....becuz when i tap it, inside doesn't have 3 blinks
and thn the power window...driver side is auto down or manual?

Congrats, good to hear the NVH is better than Saga (Using the Saga as benchmark that's not saying a lot sweat.gif sweat.gif ).

As for the one touch lane change, better get outside the car to check.

yes...NVH better i think is becuz of the CVT and the soundproof they used
saga NVH can be better if they install soundproof
the 1 touch lane change later will check, car parked already
FC when i got the car stated 8.XL/100KM...drive drive drive until home, it dropped to 6.2L/100KM
i think it will still dropped..lets see

car manufacturer's claim will never be true..u can only get close
if i'm not wrong 21KM/L is based on constant 80KM/H drive

IMO that is unlikely, because at Thailand, the government got a industrial incentive program for manufacturers to make a eco car (aka car with more than 20km/l mileage and low CO2 emission).

That why Mitsubishi able to slash down the price and enter Malaysia. Malaysia also can't tariff much on Mirage since they signed AFTA.

making the car...car price is still the same actually
its how much its sold that matters
it was sold RM30-40k in thailand and philipines if u saw the price and convert(its sold cheap in thailand becuz the car itself qualify for the incentive program(for driver/buyer)
in MY, it cost an extra RM20k for the same car
and mitsu already announce CKD will be next year..so to be safe than sorry, buy it now
later CKD, some feature will be gone, japanese part no hope..also gone...price only slash abit
same story like the honda jazz hybrid
and quality will definitely dropped in CKD in malaysia
and our version not only are more expensive, some feature like stabilizer bar(philipines) and the auto retractable side mirror also cut

the USB ipod at the glove box there is for those that have touchscreen HU(GLS Ltd)...another higher line than our GS that mitsu didn't bring it in

Especially for those who take full loan. Eg., the car is 90k, by right can only take 81k loan, but the buyer wanna take full loan, so the SA marks up the price to 100k by adding accesories which will not actually be included, submits that amount to the bank, so now the buyer can loan 90k.

bank officer, close one eye only.

bank afterall, makes their money from loans.

thats why normally 99% loan always comes with high interest. higher a bit than 90%.

lol... when dares and I walked into Nissan showroom, somehow I gave the SA a false hope. Keep on pestering me for my contact number. laugh.gif

those loan is considered high risk, hence the higher interest. Bank determines the interest rate base on the probability of one will default the loan. If the applicant has good record and/or affluent, the interest rate is definitely lower. secondly, interest rate also determined by the loan amount. Those people who has a habit of putting 50%, 60% deposit for RM80k and below cars will face higher interest. Anything lower than 30% loan, bank wont even consider. Automatic reject. lol. Cant make money, according to banks.

Another thing was, you cannot include the optional accesories in the loan, so if you take the RM750 chrome kit, you have to pay it up front. So much for marking up with accesories whistling.gif

Newly launched models typically have no discount even during year end.

Heck, even old models like the Suzi Swift doesn't even offer any discounts the last time I asked whistling.gif

Suffice to say, year end season does not guarantee huge discounts from each and every carmaker.

tested everything just now
everything in the ETACS is working
the only thing doesn't work properly is the power window
it doesn't have auto up and down AND the 30 second usage after engine is off
