Unless get 2nd hand, and the one to get is with the 3.5L V6... Drinks petrol quite a bit, but engine is smooth like butter, and pick-up awesome. I used to drive a Cefiro with the 2.3L V6. I think it's just sad Nissan has pretty much abandoned their V6 line-up for mass-consumer cars. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assume the current version has not improved significantly, there is no way I describe it as comfortable, using the standard of a S$100k car. Current XV & Forestor are using a completely new platform compare to the 2017 model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current camry on tnga platform has a stiffer setup. It feels quite different from older camry. I would say it's not the soft city driving car of before. But the cabin has good space for spending long hours on the road. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But did watch a few oversea review when compare with RAV4, CX5, the new Forester has a better ride and NVH. My XT ride is definitely hard.

Solar Turbocharged January 5, 2020 Share January 5, 2020 Does the comfy equate to more bouncy ride? Thought it should glide thru humps yet not give the boat in the waves feeling? When I switch on the 'normal' mode in my car I don't like it. It's rather bouncy especially over humps. The hard dynamic mode feels harsh. 🙄 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are simply too many humps and uneven roads in SG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't go aftermarket if you want comfort. I have changed my Alphard suspension to TENS wagon before and the ride comfort sucks. I have not tried any bilstein air suspension though.
