any idea how soon future owners can get their Iriz?

want to share bits on punch cvt2 . the improvement same as suprima cvt3 . the fd ratio being change compare to flx cvt2 to match with new vvt engine powerband.

punch cvt operate diff compare to other cvt.

from stagnant,it rev higher than tc cvt due to clutch action.

city driving,to get most fc,rev below 2k rpm,circa 1600rpm to 1900 rpm,but 1900 rpm will be the most balance on power n fc. why,at that rpm range, cvt will try to change from low ratio to high ratio asap to get most efficient fc. 2100 to 2500 rpm is just enough to overtake in city driving.

eventhough the torque isnt that high, but cvt being tuned diff when 2k rpm n beyond,it holds longer on low ratio b4 switch to high ratio. this help on acceleration,but sacrificing a bit on fc,but not too much cuz u dont need to rev as high as in prev 4at.

the wrong thing previously done that consume too much fc,many tend to treat it like conv at, rev as high as 2500rpm from stagnant,then reduce the throttle when achieve desire speed.

its wrong then.eventhough but o meter feel slow,its not as slow as as one might think.

even at higher speed such as 100kmh,no need to rev too much, rev 500 rpm than prev rpm,just enough to overtake,unless u need all the torque,then 4k rpm is needed. wot is only needed when u have need for speed.

when hill climbing at genting road for example,drive in D is sufficient ennough,but if need more attach feeling,just switch to L,so that low ratio will be used all the way,n if course,even in normal at,u only used low ratio during hill climbing at genting,unless its cfe,L is rarely needed.
yup, cvt drooning its there when low ratio is used,but it become.lesser when it switch to high ratio. thats why rev below 2krpm,the drooning will only heard shortly cuz it will shift to high ratio asap.

hope this help future owner of iriz to understand how punch cvt operating. dont compare it with tc cvt,its not the same.

why clutch cvt,look at independent testing in thailand,lookup for preve cfe n lancer 2.0 gt real performance. during wot, turbo cfe doesnt have much advantage over 2.0 mivec coz both usibg cvt,n both rev at most optimal rpm for the engine. lancer 2.0 torque isnt that shy  from cfe,n its lighter than preve,n it shows that wet clutch cvt still have an edge over tc cvt.

its only lack if feeling refinrment and the drooning cvt sound. even lighter dual vvti cvt altis miss the mark.

im not saying that its godly good,but nothing perfect n punch cvt isnt as weak as some might think. punch keep improving its product,in future,maybe the lack of refinement can be cater in.

hmm... saw u guys commented ....1.3cvt december only have? My SA told me around october can have.. I booked. hmm....

short term proton cheaper cause it offer 3 year free parts and labor? so at least 3 year maintenance cost = 0?

Just received my car ytd. Happy Deepavali to my car!

Will share the FC once i finished my first tank...

they suck.. nvr even a call to notify how long will be the wait.
My sa told me 2 weeks.... thats mid of October. Now no news at all. Haha... they are shit....

Mind sharing who's your SA here? So that I can 'slap' them with false promises! I told them so many times, no need to sweet talk... Just tell me the truth so I can plan accordingly... Now I have sold my wife's persona for Iriz... Mangsa nya, my own car... my wife has been driving it to office and parked it under not so hot sun for the past 2 weeks... And as for myself, motor...

My silver moon dust..
There's another green iriz in my neighborhood.

1.3 donno when can get. Coz i still waiting my 1.6exc.. Already 1 month..

i m noob in reviewing cars..

everything fine.. except the sound of exhaust quite loud especially in low speed..

Guys, im wondering is the iriz economical to run? with the upcoming fuel subsidy removal, i'm thinking twice whether to get a better FC car or this one.

I hope I can get the car early this December. cant wait 2015 production

so many 1.6 fans ....

what about hte 1.3 leh ????

plannign to get one soon once the myvi promo is over...

Book mine.. 1.3 cvt exec..

anyone getting their 1.3 cvt already?? any news?

Same response from my sa. ... lol..
I don't mind . I just want fast.... don't know later my current car what will Kong lol

Some information u can understand more here bro :
