Currently the equivalent VW Polo is ~RM108k. The Skoda especially is way too expensive given the lack of brand recognition and service options. It's an excellent car with limited marketing by the current franchise holders. RM50k is too optimistic for a European CBU if the Europe sourced, locally assembled 206 Bestari which is cheaper than the Fabia in the UK can only be sold at RM65+k. FWIW the pricing of a Pug 206 in the UK is around 8k pounds, the older Fabia is around 10k pounds.

One look at this car will send the image of the Suzuki Swift to your mind. Raptorclans, you’re right about the design scheme of the Yeti but it was more authentic than this.

Funny, the design seems to weigh towards to Eastern design... I thought europeans would be more exagerated in design.. Looks like a Kelisa at a glance.
