wongpumpkins 2nd Gear August 17, 2017 Share August 17, 2017 Yesterday's ST mentioned some dealers clearing stock of non euro 6 cars but as far as I know all have been sold off except maybe PIs still having some stock. They specifically mentioned Elantra but last I heard the Elantra being sold currently is the euro 6 version so I think ST got their facts wrong? i read the article from sgcar mart..PI harrier and shuttle also non-euro compliant?if true, mean no more harrier from PI? and only can get from BM turbo. Then, vezel ,fit/jazz and shuttle almost same then why only shuttle non-compliant..very confused now..i even read a article said vezel hybrid also cant pass euro 6.... http://www.sgcarmart.com/news/writeup.php?AID=319 ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many cars made in Japan adhere to the Japanese emission standards, which is equivalent to EURO emission standards. PIs also went through the era from EURO 4 to EURO 5 standards, and still surviving. Just that consumers have to pay more for cleaner emissions, etc extra filters, mufflers, devices that removes the NOx particles.

I am sure once the deadline is nearer, they will have to calculate the cheaper options. To ship out or sell at lower margin. So wait is the right strategy. Good that you prefer to reduce the loan quantum. If you compute the discount against the interest, definitely paying the penalty is better. However, if you place that same amount of loan in some investment scheme while you took the loan, it may be acceptable. So the discount must be computed in the equation when you purchase the car.

wongpumpkins 2nd Gear August 18, 2017 Share August 18, 2017 i wonder since euro 6 implementation and more strict STA/VICOM inspection for the emission , any bad effect for those car which regularly pump Msia petrol. As i know, Msia 95 is EURO 2, 97 is EURO 4 ( very doubt all petrol kiosk really sell you EURO 4).... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pocus Turbocharged August 18, 2017 Share August 18, 2017 (edited) Tink u went to the wrong PI. Suzuki & Honda were clearing their Euro 5 Swift & Jazz at lelong prices. Even Lexus oso do that Champion motors very cham... most of it's cars are Euro 5 and had to be cleared. Only left Vitara which is Euro 6. The new model Euro 6 swift won't hit our shores till next year... one model to hold the fort for 6 months... Hopefully they will do better when the ignis and swift comes and even better when the swift sport arrrives... Edited August 18, 2017 by Pocus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you are one of those folks who think that the higher price paid in singapore equals higher reliability Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you are one of those folks who think that the higher price paid in singapore equals higher reliability some folks, not here, but some folks believe in the notion of you pay for what u get. So they are easily excited on perceived value. From HDB flat , to the 20 dollars chicken rice at a hotel to the COE and cars that you pay for. Others have old school notion of adulterated petrol to siphon out the good stuff away to other sources of income in Malaysia. Some like Donald trump. Only want to believe what they believe and everything else is fake news as it conflicts their belief and will sort of a virtual slap as they broadcast earlier that this is how it's supposed to be and cannot retract.

Spidey10 Supercharged August 18, 2017 Share August 18, 2017 i wonder since euro 6 implementation and more strict STA/VICOM inspection for the emission , any bad effect for those car which regularly pump Msia petrol. As i know, Msia 95 is EURO 2, 97 is EURO 4 ( very doubt all petrol kiosk really sell you EURO 4).... if a euro 4 car goes for inspection next year, will it fail the inspection? I used to own a 2006 mitsu and have been going for my inspection until end 2015.....I still got it certified! So is LTA goona up the inspection for Euro 4 cars in the coming years - like that a lot of cars will fail leh. And what will happen? cannot be certified and cannot be on the roads? this euro 6 only applies to new cars and those that have bought, no impact, just pump and drive and maintain the car as per normal... if they take the euro 6 standard and apply it across, my old mitsu would have failed a long time ago. and a lot of cars will be off the road in the next couple of months... don't think they can afford that...

Soya Supersonic August 18, 2017 Share August 18, 2017 That just goes to show the annual or biennial inspection is just another revenue exercise doesn't it? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
