Wants to know too.

 

Also, other then MP3, what other file formats can it playback? Think this info should be available in the car manual.

 

And, what is the Pioneer model number?

 

Thanks.

Finally went to test drive the Harrier yesterday.

Made the mistake of going the MB and BM (not borneo) showrooms before the Harrier test drive against the good advice given to me here, so wifey could not accept the aesthetics of the Harrier.

The earlier test drive reviews given here were quite accurate, power is initially low but once you step on the accelerator the delivery is strong and linear. Steering and handling is nowhere near the germans. Suspension feels stiff to me. 

The Harrier is still a good and wise choice.

Haha, she is not interested in whether the car has turbo or not or what transmission. Anyway I am happy for the bros who have booked their Harrier.

The label on the Harrier showed 177g/km of CO2 which should carry a $10,000 surcharge (Band C1) in 2018 although my SE still say this is not confirmed. Bros should book early to avoid this.

Coming back to profit margin, you can check One Motoring Website.

Of course Harrier Turbo is not in the list yet,

You can use other model to gauge

 

Example

Toyota Previa Aeras (row 267 in the list)

OMV $34,489k

COE $50,110

SP: $162k

Profit: $17,169k

 

Harrier Turbo (Luxury)

OMV $35,700 (July batch registration)

COE: $50,001 (19th July)

SP: $160k (now price)

Profit: you gauge yourself

80/20 rule - 80% of the drivers would not even know what the turbo does that means performance will not be a selection criteria, which means only 20% of drivers care about how fast the car can go. The turbo to me really matters when buying my car but most days I am just driving in Eco mode, so I do not know how many times the turbo actually kick in every day. Judging by the high interest in Harrier Turbo, I think most select it because it is Toyota and it is supported by BM.

IF 2016 model Harrier 2.0 NA CVT (exact same one PI selling), BM launch at $150k, I strongly believe the 400 confirmed booking will see a drastic reduction to 398  :D 

 

who else agrees? Kee chiu! :D

Previa kena $10k CEV.

Harrier Turbo maybe $0 CEV.

So, margin is about $25k lor....

 

Btw, BMW X3's OMV is only $34k.

This Harrier is more ex than X3 outside of Singapore.

 

Wow! I didn't realize X3 and Harrier Turbo Luxury have the same OMV, the price difference is huge.
