Is it open for test drive already? Any SOP or appointment?

Yes need appointment. I went to Puchong Jaya. Short drive, traffic there quite heavy.
I went for a test drive. I don't really like the drive it's Abit lethargic, noisy and clunky when accelerating uphill. With power mode on, it was way better, smooth and silent. Flat road it's ok, fast and smooth on normal mode. The car very fast from Standstill, lucky brakes are grippy. Lucky for ASA, I think it will greatly help mistakes on the pedal. Suspension is ok, but a bit bouncy on high road bumps (the skinny ones).

Interior wise, it's cheap plastic. Again price wise is like that. Reverse camera the image is not good. Use eyes better, as the mirrors are huge enough. Seats are good and supportive. In and out easy. Front seats need to hop out a bit due to thicker doors,. High roof won't hit your head at all. Plenty of space for such a small car. The car exterior is actually bigger than you think because of the front boxy part. Seriously I rather buy something else if you don't need the SUV looks and mini dimensions. If you really want a SUV like car, this is really value for money, safety and tech aplenty.

Thanks for the heads up, Puchong jaya is close to me. Which stretch of road did you test drive?

Not bad from a consumer pov. Seeing as most doesnt go uphill (unless the malaysians craze of "Genting") that frequent, its a good catch for day to day drive.

Th rest i suppose echoes what paultan wapcar reviews have wrote. Thanks bro
Got it. Seems like a hot suv

Basically you leave the show room and merge in to the Persiaran Puchong Jaya selatan, then turn back in to the showroom one circle. Apparently the noisy and clunky part was the turbo lag. Only happens if you hard mash on the accelerator. If you drive normally the car pickup is adequate, steering feel quite good as well.
