Watwheels Supersonic December 17, 2009 Share December 17, 2009 Baby SUV? Is it suppose to replace the Colt Plus? IMO Colt Plus looks are easier on the eyes. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator December 17, 2009 Share December 17, 2009 bigger then 'Rush' ? FYI, Rush (1.5L) is not the target competitor for this Crossover vehicle, and so are CR-V (2.4L) & RAV4 (2.4L). Japanese website are comparing it with this Nissan Dualis / Qashqai (2.0L) & Honda Crossroad (1.8 / 2.0L). 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator December 17, 2009 Share December 17, 2009 I think it looks quite ok leh..what's the capacity? European website are speculating that the same 1.8L MIVEC unit found in the Lancer would be deployed on this crossover. Spec (EU) are as follows: Engine Capacity: 1,798cc Bore x Stroke: 86.0mm x 77.4mm Compression Ratio: 10.5 Max. Horsepower: 143ps / 6,000rpm Max. Torque: 178Nm / 4,250rpm 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon82 Moderator December 17, 2009 Share December 17, 2009 Baby SUV? Is it suppose to replace the Colt Plus? IMO Colt Plus looks are easier on the eyes. To me, it look more like an upsize Colt (EU model). Anyway, the new cooperate face don't look nice on SUV / raised height model, including the soon to arrive Facelifted Outlander. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Octopus 3rd Gear January 24, 2010 Share January 24, 2010 Looks great but I hate Mitsubishi gearboxes Mitsubishi cars got many different gearboxes, all you don't like? Even their twin clutch SST? Maybe in near future even basic cars can have twin clutch, not necessary the higher end evolution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twin_Clutch_SST Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolie888 Clutched January 24, 2010 Share January 24, 2010 (edited) Looks OK lah. But if it comes only with the INVECS-II CVT transmission, then sorry, am not interested. I steer away from anything CVT, that means most of the PI Jepun cars and Audi's Multitronic (MU) included. They will only hurt your pocket later on ...

Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear January 25, 2010 Share January 25, 2010 if you unlucky, bought a lemon car, CVT trans spoil, you'll gotta replace the whole thing, which will cost around $5-10k... but CVT will last 5yrs without any major problem la...so don't worry... CVT though saves you weight and fuel, robs you of the power the car produces... really not fun to drive a CVT equipped car...meant for luxury sedans to cruise the road...

Ferraricalifornia 1st Gear January 25, 2010 Share January 25, 2010 don't have to worry la...if by the 2nd yr the car was made, no prob surface for CVT, then it may last up to 10yrs...but periodic servicing is required la!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolie888 Clutched January 25, 2010 Share January 25, 2010 Go to vagsg.com forum. Audi cars with Multitronic (MU) CVT failing within 2-3 years. Cost ~$27,000 to replace the whole gearbox. Most owners do simple repair / refurbish and dispose of it in the used car market. Someone in the forum had earlier checked with the mechanics at Tan Chong Motor's workshop and was told (on a personal basis) that Nissan Praire CVTs typically fail after 2+ years and need to be repaired. Am seeing some consistency in the reports here, be it Conti or Japanese CVTs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
