Yes your S70 got more power, power seat for driver airbags , rear disc brake, DCT shit more power and torque. Size comparable with Preve but why I like Almera because everything is simple but function well. .

Android Auto/Apple car play
Nice sound system
Super good FC
Reasonable acceleration though no way comparable to S70.
Features and powe S70 win but Almari Tebu better built.
Sorry maybe one more thing I feel S70 sound insulation better but ride Almari nicer.


What /k think ?

lapsap

ok

the only advantage I can think is that S70 is a B+

a bit more space.

If you are planning to bring your aged parents around probably S70 nicer

yes almeri 1.0 tebu bestest

Almari use CVT?

Yes

Agree the cabin much bigger.

jepun > baoteng china celup

I think S70 no android auto and apple car play.
If you plan to drive 10 years and above, then these 2 car ok.
Btw, it's Proton. The reputation.....

A lot of people will voge for Chinese car as they are really good in paper.
S70 is good, but if you ask me purely for city drive i will choose Almera anytime. For city drive you need fuel savings, smooth driving in traffic jam and easy to drive around corners/carpark area. Bigger CC & car size is not an advantage for city drive.

Ultimately depend on what is most of your usage

pure city start stop? lowest CC + cvt might gave u slight better FC + more comfort ride

if frequent long distance ride then dual clutch might able give you slight more excitement aka syok sendiri

and also if you fetch elder ppl or baby with proper child seat ..bigger always better

my cross just sumbat 360 child seat also occupied more than 1 proper seat space

in the end my rear seat only can take 1 adult + 1 baby (on child seat) + 1 kid (max) ; cannot fit 2 adult


not sure what is your definition of "better built" but i dont think almera have better touch feeling than S70 ..as japan car always famous on hard plastic panel everywhere

if you’re thinking about driving parents around, wouldn’t you get a toyota?.. maybe a little more $ but definitely reliability and maintenance much easy

yeah. i'd rather have simplicity rather than better on paper specs but suffer from inadequacies from aftersales / potential problems.

AA or CP just use an external display like Eonon P4 la. 400 bucks only nia.

If hang, just unplug the power for 5 seconds. Stock head unit if hang, need to stop somewhere and turn off the ignition.

Bro, just buy the car that makes you look back twice when you park your car.

Life is too short.

Buy the car you love.

Edit: Basically, what I am saying is just buy Almera Turbo.

almari need to buy two also ... spare parts dun have and also very expensive for the parts

Your money, your choice

As long as you're happy

You bring up nice point, and I agree with you

However TS is only mentioning Nissan and Proton

Between both of them and Toyota

Proton provide a much comfier experience for long journey

Especially if you are fetching old man or adult with special needs

But fell short for quick city ride

Reliability wise i got no comment

Bias disclosure

I own an S70 for almost a year now

And I’m still salty about Proton is not providing AACP for my car

Actually, you know what?

Fuck Proton.

LOL almari, might as well get Ativa, easier parking.

Prefer the older almera.
1.5NA + 4AT

4AT tried and tested thru time... Sigh now all CVT. Better FC but gb teruk.

Ok

lack of auto brake hold is a deal breaker.

Ragret? If can turn back time, what would you choose.

Almari segment B
s70 segment C.

S70 damn bad . The moment u floor the pedal, u can hear/feel like metal knocking sound coming from the engine. Shows that the engine is no good.

he has to wait for S70 facelift next model

hahahahahaha

May I ask you what motivated you to buy Proton?

The price is a few thousand cheaper than vios and honda.

Is it due to its 5 Ncaap ? or is it due to its B+ size ?

If you wonder why no AACP, just look at the way Potong works, just look at their co culture, see Glass Door comments. Nobody talking to each other, people slow to responds, everybody only jaga their own kain. With some exception of boot lickers who climb up. So from here, you can see they are not risk takers, go all out for their own product.

adas?

My short IMO to your long write up. Nissan Almera.

Why? Aftersale & SC and I am a strong believer in, only until I see a total 'grubbing', anything else is cosmetic.

You own almera turbo how long already and did you own previous gen almera before? If yes, can you comment on 3 cylinder engine is it ok?

Driven Almera turbo and S70. Almera turbo engine very smooth compared to S70. S70 put sport mode and tekan is absolute woohoo but Almera tebu is no slouch if need acceleration it's there but I think they can do better with braking system. But if solely engine smoothness I'll say Almari tebu for me better. It's more smooth Preve tebu 4 banger or cibic. But....the mountings die fast but 20-30k but till it die engine is very smooth.

I had sentra before long time ago the service aftersales very good then. The sentra that time competitor is corolla altis but I feel sentra well built, very good response and power for the time compared to Altis.

If carry old people better s70 or almera?

Exactly.
Aftersale, SC, BuiltQ between Nissan and Proton, my money on Nissan anytime.

Just me la

My vote is for Almera Turbo.

S70 . Nissan rear bit low.

If major parts got problem Nissan you can get aftermarket spare parts like half-cut for lower cost as they are also available in Japan.
For Chinese/local cars good luck getting half-cut except for accident car tender out. If you ask any mechanic, if plan for long use and aftermarket spare part availability and options any mechanic will also tell you choose Japanese as after 5~10 years half-cut market will flood with their cars parts as they will start to scrap at their country. If Nissan Almera parts also you complain expensive, better you buy Perodua cars as they are consider one of the lowest maintenance cost in market for B segment when compare to Proton, T & H models.

that y i used potong car

With record breaking loses by Niss*n and T*nchong, I’m not betting my money on them able to maintain good aftersale or built.

A company only can deliver good services if they themselves are not in a trouble.
