For that matter accidents happen due to drivers negligence and not the car per say ,so for the people who claim that older cars are less safe , let me tell you this :- DONT TALK RUBBISH just because you want to push car sales up ….think about the poorer people who rely on old but reliable cars ,people who keep their cars in excellent condition and people who generally care about their finances .

It is less than RM100k. Wondering why Prius selling for RM140K despite tax free. Hope the govt increase the free tax to 3000 cc so that more options of Hybrid. Prius is too small as I need bigger. Also hope to see Prius+ in Malaysia soon.

Like giving special discount on new or replacement vehicle. It won’t work at all in Malaysia as the lands are big with still so many unemployed in town and low income earner at outskirt area. Whichever controlling govt that proposed this will get a setback from its peoples in the next upcoming Election.

We hated this. But if you don’t pay so – as encouraged by the learning school tutors, you will get a failed driving test and have to waste more time learning again and again or perhaps only to get a pass after 3 test. This really sucks and had been around in this makan swap attitude for already 2 generations as far as I know.

Why does Japanese car equipped with NiCad only? Shouldn’t it be Lithium Ions? If much progress is done on Lithium Ions which is less expensive than NiCad and not only from Japan, then things will be very much different in pricing. Everyone knows that Japs cars are expensive nowaday.

Old continental cars like Mercedes Benz, BMW or Volvo have good build quality, have good features and importantly has adequate safety features that is better than any local cars.

Because Govt intends to roll out full force of hybrids and elec cars when the exemption expires. Then all imported Hybrids will be hit with heavy taxes to protect local hybrids.

To address the root cause, policy must be addressed.
To address policy, policy makers must be addressed.
I am a typical Rakyat paying tax for the majority population when myself can’t cope anymore with the ever increasing living standards with my pitty income.
By the way, current adminstration said house priced below RM300,000 is considered low cost house!
OMG! How about all those house below RM150,000, rubbish house?
Do they even know how hard for most of us Rakyat in general is suffering day-in-day-out try to make an earnest living here?
I have lost every single until the last faith on current administration.
It will be reflected in my vote in next general election.
I have enough lies and empty promises or rather yelling and yelling seen on every news channel ……
Sigh …… for our children and better future of our beloved country where we shed blood (tanah air tumpah darah yang dicintai), change now before it’s too late.
In case you are wondering how current adminstration is buying votes, our national deficit is approaching ceiling level of horrifying 55%!
Do not laugh at Euporean PIGS countries when one days we are one of the laughing stock!
Then you become of the Rakyat Yang Bodoh!

In their version of PUSPAKOM a small fault found in the car translates into changing all parts directly associated with that fault with new parts. Why do you think there a4e so much almost new Japanese car parts at the potong kereta shop?

However, My guess for the coming budget is the tax exemption for Hybrid is ONLY applied to CKD Hybrid which explains why HOnda is gonna make Jazz Hybrid CKD. This would in a way make car makers like Toyota / Honda to build their factory here to manufacture hybrid since Malaysia is aiming to be a regional hub for Hybrid. Well, Just my guess anyways…Not sure would it be true
