Im tempting towards this car as my first car however I had something to ask here.

Is the small turbocharged engine like Ativa here is reliable for long distance journey? I read somewhere turbo engine can be really hot also kinda worried the small capacity could shorten the lifespan if push too hard. Never drive the small engine or turbocharged car before so didnt have much knowledge on this area. blush.gif

And for those who had test drive, do you guys think it had the power to pull, let say 4 adult occupants inside. My local dealer still didnt allow test drive they waiting for the roadtax something.

Hopefully someone can englighten me here. Thanks! notworthy.gif

Hi guys! Thread has been abit inactive lately, how's your Ativa doing?

One big flaw of the Ativa I would say it's the headunit. Very limited and has no Android Auto or Carplay.
I found a workaround for Android Auto without changing the headunit, although it's only limited for Android users.

First, download Android Auto for Phone Screen apk. It's an official app from Google in the Play Store but since AA never officially released here, I just downloaded the APK.
Next, use EasyConnection to link to the headunit.
Then just run the app.
Voila, now you have AA - sort of. This version of AA is not the full version that has a home screen like a tablet, it's more like a lite version but still works perfectly with Maps and Spotify.

It's very janky, and its not perfect. But it's free so if you're curious about AA can give it a shot.

For Carplay users, no luck with the headunit, sadly.

If changing the headunit, will it void the warranty? huh.gif
