Geely put a 3 cylinder engine in a small SUV to sell it cheap to Tongshan ppl, here you are paying premium price to get the same engine and car. NO.

You pay premium for EVERY SINGLE car sold in Malaysia. Don't lie to yourself when you bought your Japanese or German shit. We're all ducked by the gov here

Well you look at the x50 now, only offer 5 years unlimited mileage. What does that tell you?

If its 10 years unlimited mileage warranty on engine and transmission then I will consider.

I am also speaking from experience, was driving Kelisa when I was student so I know what a 3cyl engine feels like. You can say all you want, 3 cyl will definitely vibrate more than 4 cyl because of harmonic imbalance, what car manufacturers can do is implement dampening and counterbalance shaft to negate the vibration. How long this will last time will tell, I certainly wouldnt be touching this from a mile away for the sake of better fuel economy especially from an unproven car manufacturer.
