Ruennchai 1st Gear February 16, 2012 Share February 16, 2012 The 2L XV is already not very fast,i think the 1.6L will be underpowered. If I need the speed, then I won't choose this crossover. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruennchai 1st Gear April 24, 2012 Share April 24, 2012 Got the XV 1.6 on 5th of April, 1 day after my baby boy came out. The mileage is 1700km now. Just got the 1st service done in the Motor Image Leng Kee, the service is good, friendly guy... The fuel efficiency is not impressive but is considered good for this big car. 6.4-8L/100km in routine working route (admiralty to buoana vista), 7.8L/100km on Malaysia Highway (Sg-Yong Peng, Johor). Good handling, acceptable noise level, stable on high speed, no complain. I will consider this is a good buy~ 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watwheels Supersonic April 24, 2012 Share April 24, 2012 This XV I feel that it's giving buyers an affordable alternative choice from the Volvo XC70 & the Audi A4 Allroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

subaruxvncw Clutched February 3, 2014 Share February 3, 2014 I have been driving Subaru XV for near to 2 years. The experience of driving this car had been good, but till last Thus (30 Jan 14), I went through the terrified experience on the highway. When I was driving on the highway, near to Yong Peng, JB, at the speed of 110 km/hr (departed from JB), suddenly there was a huge and sharp boom sound came from the front car. And my steering went uncontrolled and the car couldn't propel, and the break went unstable. Fortunately it was around 3am and there wasn't much cars around me, otherwise, I couldn't have written this message anymore. There was no smoke, not tyre puncture, and car engine seemed normal physically. FYI, my car was sent for service at Subaru Service Center, Leng Kee street on 7 Jan 2014. I am quite puzzled and wondering whether any of the Subaru XV owner has experienced this malfunction before..... My car is back to Subaru Service Center and still under inspection now. Sigh.. missed my holiday and gathering with family members for this CNY... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, you can always have your gathering at another time. What's important is that no one is hurt in this incident....
