You wouldn't like driving regardless of drivetrain unless a turbo is added to these cars.

Nowadays seldom see any cars with such high mileage 

Soon will have more of such.. Coz more and more private hire cars on the road.. Some of them clocked about 10k km per month.. So in 3 to 4 years time.. This 300plus k km mileage will be quite common..

Wah respect respect, haha. 321 or 321 does not make any diff. I suppose you are quite a gentle driver ? 

not always. Tho it has been thru major tough times and the gb/engine is still strong. i.e, first owner missed a few oil changes.(family car) At the moment,  the major issue is that it guzzles petrol fast.

 in addition to PHV , there are more COE cars, these cars will clock more milage over the entire 15 to 20 years lifespan.

Unable to tell how bad is bad, what is the average km per liter over a period of time ? 

My Altis is getting about 10.5km per liter only.

Full tank with 480km seems very good already. My car's also on cvt, full tank average only 350km.

thats quite bad considering the size of the tires and the weight of the car.

Maybe acceleration is more to do with engine power than transmission. 

More power more acceleration.

CVT is rubbish! Period! Case closed!

i don't complain when the CVT + hybrid gives me 20L/km (and cost me 70 dollars in petrol for 1000km) on my road trip

paiseh, mine's about 11.4km/l. my other axio kakis can get 12-13km/l, but I guess its due to more highway than city.

Axio is a reliable car. But it's still a car with older technology. So can't compare FC with the newer cars on road.

Thanks for all your input, guys.

Decided to renew COE. Went to Komoco yesterday. Our son got into the Accent's rear and his hair touched the roof lining 😆 Avante only slightly bigger and the black interior didn't help. Anyway, son taking lessons so better for him to start driving a non-new car.

Was brought upstairs for a sneak peak at the Hyundai Venue. $85K before discount, looks like a streamlined and upsized version of our old Matrix! KMC launching it next month.
