I know Toyota is very reliable, but i cant accept the interior design for this. I mean i pay more than 100k and it looks very old fashion.
new Vios and Camry both are good and nice.
but base on what i was told is the 2.5 engine having issue now. from latest info i get
so probably i will go for 2.0 or just HRV for now. seems not many other choices
i see... ya, HOnda steering rack issue is very well known. that is what i am worrying. the CVT too. because i worry some times i might drive aggressive a bit
suppose i wish to get Mazda 3 or CX-30 but the interior space a bit too small.
thank you so much for your information. will check that if going to get the CX5. probably consider 2.0. heard some say 2.5 engine have cylinder issue but i not sure how true it is.
After a few years of ownership all cars except maybe super cars you will only appreciate the comfort and accessibility of the interior. I own a very old school 90's design car and a very new "modern" design interior car. I only really care how the seat supports me (the old one is better) and where the places to put my hands and keys and phone. As long as got Apple carplay your ICE is done.
So, buy car better be practical la, since you also have budget control it means you are a sensible person.
The 2.0 CX-5 is great except it will not help you save your life in a collision or moment of lapse, whereas the others can. Why do Malaysians ignore safety features?
This leaves you with 2.5 and 2.5T which is still very poor in active safety features compared to Toyota and Honda.
