Atonchia Supersonic February 19, 2014 Share February 19, 2014 (edited) Looks like a face lift. But in above pic, its GDI = 140ps ? = CAT B Local should be MPI I think, maintaining the 130hp for CAT A. Doesn't matter, might as well get a more powerful car since COE of both categories are almost the same LTA might as well combine the 2 cat into one. They wasted their time and effort for having a feedback session but yield zero results. I think it's just a gimmick to show us they exist and are working.......doesn't matter if their policies doesn't work.

Proton_neutron 1st Gear February 21, 2014 Share February 21, 2014 Perhaps Hyundai should bring in the Elantra 2.0L from Hyundai USA? Uses the 175bhp engine from the i45. Haha. Still finding it strange why Hyundai don't want to put their 1.6TGDi 206bhp engine in their other lineups besides the Veloster Turbo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tohto Hypersonic February 21, 2014 Share February 21, 2014 1.6TGDi is 186bhp, where got 206bhp? Komoca bring in the lower spec 1.6TGDI. The higher spec one in many country is more than 200bhp. I believe C & C will bring in the higher spec new Kia Koup 1.6TGDI. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More higher spec car = more ARF + more Cat B/Open COE + more Road Tax + more ERP collection + more speeding ticket + more reason to up ERP. Indirect benefit to gahmen = higher insurance + more petrol sold ---> more tax collected. Win win. No horse run.

Yalor, B&b car should come with B&b spec, due to the way it's taxed, sg market is not ready for high spec B&b car.. Even Toyota unable to sell 1.8 Altis (not sure how many they sold but I'm sure just a few in sg) when is the basic spec in other country...

Baal Supersonic February 23, 2014 Share February 23, 2014 Hope for the 2014, kmc, will bring in a remapped version of the 1.6GDI. After all, its only 138hp. Just need to re-tune/map (not power cut) and it will fit CAT A. Eg, 130hp/170nm ? Iwt this is more relevant for Sin. The same applies for the new SSS. It has been done b4. Eg, Jazz/City 1.5 .......118hp/145nm. When they used it on the Freed mpv, they re-tune to 115hp/148nm. So its re-tune/map, not power cut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
