How's the performance, would you feel underpowered? I have tested Serena, off Eco mode, still underpowered for me, maybe because I use to drive 2.4 engine.
I'm changing it for my wife, if this car won't be so underpowered, will consider this over Serena due to the interior is more luxury than Serena.
Pls advise.

QUOTE(jchue73 @ Dec 31 2013, 01:03 PM) Ooophs, forgot about the Biante. So that makes my plus point comment on the Serena thread about 150k for 8 seater MPV a little moot. Anyway in all honesty, if you've tasted a 2.4L engine, then you will find the Biante with the SkyActive 2.0L still lacking. Yes, same engine as on the CX5. Some people say ok, some say not. But why worry... There's always the paddle shifters (yes, that's right) for that occasional zoom zoom spirited drive. And top speed is limited to 176km/hr. Listed consumption is 11.6 km/l for city drive and 14.9 km/l for highway. I like the Biante interior color, paddle shift, audio control sterling, but the seats configuration not as flexi as Serena. FC is fine, I trust the Skyactiv will do it best.
