That is what i worry the most. 8 yr point. Battery need to change. How costly is it n how is the resale value later.

But yea the eHEV really tempting. My fren got use hatchback RS he say can get 27km/l , for me its really impressive.

Given the fact that the oil subsidy may be revised in the future.. seems its not bad to invest in a hybrid car if given a chance.

Tempted for civic as well but the new gen civic is damn ugly (inside) , why honda cut corners liao that speedometer back to manual, really turn off.  Maybe got some deals on 2nd hand civic ketam but i'm not rushing to buy now.

for example, camry hybrid normally battery need to be replaced around at year 7, so still under 8 year waranty. battery replacement actually not expensive, parts like inverter more expensive to replace if kaput if not mistaken.

Anyone using hybrid cars? Like the Honda RS line .? Will the maintenance cost a bomb in the future? Any thoughts or regrets?

Thinking of getting one but not sure is it worth it to add another 20k+ for the RS (in this case the city)

You need to read more about “hybrid” car….

Are you asking IMMD? Or IDCT? Or anything else?

Inverter for the engine? Or for the hybrid battery? Camry hybrid is quite old technology.

just a reminder though, always service the car at SC until the battery warranty expires. While ICE car can graduate early, ie. can go to third party workshop at 5 years, hybrid must wait 8 years.

You forgot the initial outlay of the extra 20k, which you could have put in investment from the very beginning, if you want to calculate this way. Lol

Google: Honda City Hybrid officially launched in Malaysia – RM89,200, slots under top-spec V in price and kit

What you tok kok extra RM20k initial outlay?

Last time 2017, Honda city V spec was priced at RM92,000 OTR (excluding insurance)
My city hybrid idcd was only RM89,200.

I enjoice the savings of RM2,800 and put that into my investment tabung instead. icon_rolleyes.gif

Toyota warranty for current Cross Hybrid covers battery + inverter + hybrid controller for 8 years.
I don’t know if it’s the same for Camry Hybrid or not.

Put aside few years before replace new battery ? I think there are much more things to fix apart from the battery if the car parked there for few years.

Deswai when buying hybrid car need to ask them what's the price of the replacement battery... Abo later end up kena macam Merc RM120K punya kes mampus
