Cerato 1.6 is probably the most powerful NA 1.6 litre car in Msia. It doesn't feel underpowered until you reach a certain speed of course.

The 2.0 is obviously more powerful but if you feel the 1.6 is underpowered, maybe you're not driving it right or your expectation is too high.

The differences between the 2 are not worth 20k IMO. But clearly, if you need the power and do a lot of long highway journeys, the 2.0 will be a better choice.

Sorry for my ignorance sir. Pls enlighten me which new cars have these engines so that I can go for a test drive.

I hope you are not talking about ancient cars which can only be bought 2nd hand since this is not the topic being discussed currently. Perhaps I should have added more caveats to what I said, but I do believe its correct in the context of the current discussion.

As far as I know, both Honda & Toyota don't sell 1.6 cars in Msia currently. I would be happy to stand corrected.

Don't be a dumbfuck. I said most powerful 1.6L car not engine. The application is to drive the car. Taking out the engine to put in a truck and saying that it's underpowered is not the intended application.

My conclusion is based on actual application not paper figures. But your rhetoric is really idiotic.

I am well aware of power-to-wait ratios. Your statement is still dumb and out of context. Did the TS say he wants to take out the Cerato's engine and put it in his Scania truck? Or do you seriously think that the Cerato is too big a car for a 1.6L engine? If you think so, you are making a wrong assumption.

Pls enlighten me then on what 1.6L car is more powerful than the Cerato in the same segment? I would be happy to stand corrected. Context here is very important. I am talking about the car as it is against other cars available in the same segment.

Apologies if my earlier comment sounded harsh, but the absurdity of what you said in the context of this discussion is really phenomenal.
