hmm .. the brake does feel slightly less responsive as compare to my wife's Myvi. I thought it was due to the car inertia unsure.gif

How do i join the club. My rattling initially thinking it come from front passenger door card was from the immobiliser sensors housing. Only found out today while driving my hand itchy just tap the housing and it felt flimsy. Then i held the housing and walla the sound just disappear. Will ask the sc to reassemble the housing. Now the rear parcel shelf seems to be loose whenever i go over potholes got knocking sound.

I believe he is referring to the light refelection on the dimister. If thats the case no worries. Merc has it as well. Surprisingly proton doesnt have it.

To me, a car is not an investment. It's more like a tool to me. Back to your question, almost all car value will depreciate in time. Your question should be is the hybrid worth it or not?

Just a simple CBA. If u purchase n/A car wth same cc, FC probably 9km/ltr. For this hybrid, I'm getting 16km/ltr. Full tank 53ltr getting ~830km. Meaning if 10days u go 830km, on a normal car u need to refuel atleast twice. Almost 40% saving on fuel.

1mth avg saving ~RM180 or RM2,160/yr on fuel. The battery pack can last >10yrs. And let say on the 10th yr u need to change at RM8k. U still save ~RM12k for the entire lifespan of the battery.

Actually it depends on how much you drive. On a 2.5 normal car vs 2.5 toyota camry hybrid : The more you drive, the more you will save on a hybrid car. But don't forget to offset the cost of the second battery that sit inside the boot behind which need to be changed about every 2 years, which is not cheap. cost around more than 1k.

If you compare to a 2.0 Camry, actually then the saving is not significant.
1st the price difference between the hybrid and 2.0 camry.
2nd the higher roadtax
3rd battery in the trunk ~1k plus
4th the higher service cost on hybrid due to CVT gearbox

The hybrid battery can last for years but beware the performance of the battery will drop significantly after 3-5 years. Same as the battery on our cellphone.

If you have to drive a lot, more than 30k km a year or considering between 2.4 Honda Accord/Ford Mondeo/Mazda 6, it should be worth to get a hybrid.
If not, just get a 2.0G camry will do.

This is my 2cent. Please do correct me if I miss out anything. smile.gif

The LV battery getting cheaper dy. Outside selling RM800 & it will last ~ 4yrs & not 2yrs.

The price will drop further when hybrids getting more in the market which I forsee will happen. Hybrid battery probably ~RM5k by the 10th yr of this car haha.
