  1. The center armrest is really a huge turnoff. Its really occupy a lot of leg room space. For those who consider to buy this car, please go and test drive. If you like it overall, go ahead and get it. Overall, it is a toyota and 10 year warranty on the battery. It wont go wrong well i suppose.

  2. Normal mode pickup laggy. But power mode is good torque and noisy engine. Overall ride still alright to me.

    Again, for those into hybrid definitely want good FC, so performance is secondary to them.

     Sorry i typo. I mean it is noisy. Not lousy engine lol.

    The power mode is meant to get you out of a tight spot and if necessary, to bring the Prius into the flow of traffics.  "Normal Mode" to most people is personal, different driver drives differently.

     

    Although good FC is the main motive of driving a Prius, there are other plus factors like silence when the car stopped at traffic junctions (unless you don't enjoy silence). Yes the air-compressor is still running, totally non-dependent on engine power.  Another from my American friend, he is enjoying a daily dose of silent kilometer out from his home and another silent kilometer back to his driveway - a ritual he can't live without.

    I understand ! America petrol so cheap, i think they dont even hack care about battery car? Btw, i skip prius +, decided to go something cheaper by 17k ! End of day, it is about my budget and space.

  3. Anyone test drive this car? How is the performance?

    The output of 98bhp/163Nm looks weak.

  4. went to view the prius+ just nw. in terms of 3rd row comfort it feels better than xtrail and outlander, with xtrail being the worst.

     

    the grey plastic interior feels really cheapo thou. im enticed by the 10yr battery warranty but not the overall look and feel

     

     

    the early bird promo (4k discount, free solar film and leather wrapping) will end by nxt week bidding. there is 2k overtrade also.

    Exactly. i actually test drive for 2 time. The stupid center console is really make turn off. Drive feel wise still ok. But should be a very good FC car. 

  5. Outlander, although my preferred choice, has pretty bad FC IMO. Decided to just go for Prius+ for its' FC. Looks and drive wise pretty normal but not too concerned about it.

    Congrats to you ! Prius+ look and interior is really not impressive. But well it is a toyota. I actually went to test drive pruis + twice !

    So you got the free bird promo? 119k?

    Would have gotten this bt the 3rd row space is really bad..

     

    No choice... Bought a Noah at same price 119k...but less features

    Congrats to you ! I did consider before on Noah ! It is damn huge and tall. Well it is a full size MPV. But the delivery date is like oct or so. My OC say it is too big. But of course if you got big family, then it is worth it.

    Thanks for pointing that out. Looking for 7seater at about the same price point, if outlander has a better fc, i would have picked it anytime haha.

    You should be looking at Harrier hybrid  [bounce1] .

  6. Hi guys,

     

    I am looking for an early-to-mid 2010.Honda Stream RSZ. Specifically the RSZ model only, will not consider a 1.8X / Style Edition.

     

    If you have 1 of the above age and are looking to sell, please send me all the details of your car:

     

    • Date of registration
    • Number of owners
    • Colour & whether sunroof model
    • Mileage
    • OMV / ARF
    • How much dealer offer to take in your car for
    I'm particularly interested to talk to you if you're someone who'd already booked a new car and have a locked-in trade-in price but free to sell off on your own for a better price before your new car arrives, or if you are looking to sell quick for whatever reason ... because my previous car already handed over due to COE expiry, so I am looking for my next car ASAP. I can offer a much better price than what dealer will take in your car for, but I am not interested to entertain if you're just fishing for price or if you're the type thinking "See can get how much then decide whether want to change car / sell or not".

     

    Thanks for reading.

    PM me. I am changing car soon.
  7. Went to take a look at the car this afternoon at Leng Kee.

    Only 1 car for test drive. Not inside showroom.

     

    Found out from SE that the first batch has been swiped by PHV.

    Not sure which company.

     

    Compared to Stream:

    Last row is tight.

    Don't like the central tunnel / storage place that curves out towards 2nd row.

    2nd row middle sit will be uncomfortable.

     

    Will still wait out since no change in VES for this model.

    So u not considering? I also go test ride sunday. Dont like the central tunnel. But due to hybrid batt, no choice. I am still deciding.
  8. An improvement from the NimH in earlier version. Batt life around 7yr or 150K km. Just like in handphone, ion batt going to last longer; better memory effect.

    Icic. I am deciding to get it a not. Still thinking hard. Any prius alpha or + driver here?
