prius prime nak masuk pon payah

When vios hybrid masuk Malaysia, many features will be lost, dulu, kini & selama nya!
#ApaMaluBossKu?

If Vios Hybrid RM130k , Sime, sila simpan dlm warehouse, tunggu exhibition ja.

Yg penting harga berapa?

UMW Toyol_ta

Who cares la. RV more important for toyota buyer.

Dang, the electric motor just 11PS less than petrol engine, almost can convert to PHEV by adding battery capacity?

BTW what's wrong with Honda hybrids? Seldom hear any problems with them.

Toyota recycle old reliable tech whenever possible, Honda normally utilize more recent/cutting edge tech, so Hondas will have more problems one.

Strip naked, featureless, boleh under RM110k

in 2025 , entry level car must be at least 210nm....

if not just sit a bull cart jer...

hybrid the future for post-RON95 subsidi era

Spare tyre tak ada, 2 air bags saja. Sport rim kasi balik 15"
Gear Box perlu tak sebab dah hybrid type. Mungkin harga sikit mahal daripada sekarang.

milage can reach 1k kot?

Vios already 100k.
Hybrid another top up ?

Mazda 3 with junk 1.5na also can sell 120k, why not?

Without ron95 subsidy, govt should give tax incentives for hybrids n with the onslaught of China hybrids we should get them <70k.

AI Overview
The most affordable plug-in hybrid (PHEV) car in China is the Wuling Starlight, followed by the Shangong Qan A5. Both of these are popular choices in the Chinese market due to their lower price points and increasing popularity of hybrid vehicles.
Here's a more detailed look at why they're popular:
Affordability:
The Wuling Starlight is known as the most affordable PHEV in China, with a starting price around $10,880. This makes it accessible to a wider range of buyers compared to traditional gasoline cars and even some other hybrid options.
Government Incentives:
The Chinese government has been promoting the adoption of new energy vehicles (NEVs) like PHEVs through various incentives, including tax cuts and subsidies.
Rising Demand:
There's a growing demand for hybrid vehicles in China, driven by factors like fuel efficiency, environmental concerns, and the potential for long-term savings.
BYD's Dominance:
While Wuling and Shangong are affordable, BYD is also a major player in the hybrid and electric vehicle market in China, with models like the Qin Plus and Seal 06. BYD's popularity is also linked to its affordable prices and competitive technology, particularly in the plug-in hybrid segment.
Longer Range and Fuel Efficiency:
Many of the top-selling hybrid models offer longer driving ranges compared to traditional hybrid vehicles, which also contribute to their appeal. The Qin Plus and Seal 06, for example, can travel up to 2,100km on a single charge with a full tank of fuel.
Competition:
The Chinese automotive market is highly competitive, with numerous manufacturers offering a variety of hybrid and electric vehicles, including both local and international brands

vios itself is already around that price
battery aren't cheap

with UMW, it can only get more expensive

finally mvvi no longer got same engine as vios owaii

Toyota Hybrid 4th generation above is the best in market.
CCP car brands will say otherwise, but I trust Toyota more than any CCP car brands.
