QUOTE(RicoT @ Apr 2 2015, 08:41 PM) No, using conventional automatic with torque converter + clutch, so you got the best of both worlds, torque converter when start up and switching gear, clutch engaged when stepping on the gas and climbing through the rev meter. Nice.   |

With regards to the above pricing.
The HB is missing some nice features (Incl cruise control) compared to the high-spec Sedan yet it's the same price? |

I suspect top range sedan pricing is in error.

QUOTE(JunJun04035 @ Apr 4 2015, 01:54 AM) WHY? I only glanced through the spec but saw HB is fabric upholstery and sedan is leather. I would imagine sedan will be higher. Anyway the pricing is good and I think all 3 versions are going to kill the competition in the C segment! it should be higher? This post has been edited by SKYjack: Apr 4 2015, 09:34 AM |

Good deal 👍
And glad to see conventional automatics used here. Hate those damn CVTs. This post has been edited by romuluz777: Apr 4 2015, 10:41 AM |

QUOTE(JunJun04035 @ Apr 4 2015, 09:56 AM) I see. You are right, some cases that is trre cos the HB will have a different suspension setup. Like a more sporty suspension which will add to the cost. I may be wrong, everything appears the same but Sedan has leather upholstery.But most hb sell pricier than their sedan counterpart, no? You seem very keen, are you getting one. Which one? |
