They’re selling this in brunei for BND$ 26,000 only, which is around RM 55,000. that price seems to be more appropriate considering the styling and size…

Just a question for Jonathan: Did you notice the red/white light at the rear bumper of Orlando? What is the function of it?

And by the way, the handbrake should be change to cater the RHD, not only for the LHD.

This is the cheapest 7 seater in Malaysia with stability control (ESP). Been waiting for this price range for a long time.

If only Exore comes with ESC…that will be nicer

Buy a viva and just extend it….then become alza. When driving at night, i like to guess is it viva or alza with my wife before we smoke them with our proton saga 1983.

Agreed with one9712745. No need super power car for family use. Good space, good look, reliable engine. If possible i want to add water and stain resistant for the interior. Airbag for every passenger. Strong body like superman. hahahaha

yea…

5th gear UK:
Avoid the petrol engine if you want any sort of performance – it struggled to climb hills and overtake with just two people on board, let alone seven – but the diesel is admirable, even in the lower powered version. It is not fast, but competitive with rivals and capable of overtaking.

For a small family like me, important points r
1) PRICE – the main factor. The monthly installment for this would be around 1100-1200k/m, which is acceptable for me.
2) drivability – meaning both me AND my wife would be able to drive. My wife would drive this – she hates tall/big MPV/SUVs. This is very important for me esp for long distance travelling, we can switch drivers.
3) space. Foldable 2nd and 3rd row. Superb for luggage, and for kids to sleep at the back (safety issues, yes, but that is for a different argument).
4) maintainence – for this, I have to wait… servicing, intervals, roadtax, real fuel consumption etc
Initially I would’ve bought an Exora CFE, which I think would be the best value for money, but then we already had another Proton (which had been reliable) & would prefer to get a different brand.
This is my view, an everyday low middle income earner with a family of four.
By the way, 0-100mph of km/h in whatever sec is TOTALLY meaningless to me

1.8 to me a bit underpowered for this kind of vehicle..there are couple of 2.0 diesel versions and I wonder why Naza chose not to bring it yet..at RM118k it is a bargain though for a seven seaters..if Naza brings the diesel version I am on!

Hm. Same platform as Opel Astra. 5 stars EuroNCAP (however that is with 6 airbags and ESP). Doesn’t seem to be a bad car.

Buy the car if u like how it looks n what it offers…never buy one if u worry so much abt resale value. After all it is your inner satisfaction that matters most when u drive a car…good looking cars are a sight for sore eyes. But if resale value is yur major concern then by all means buy the lame looking toyota with its mediocre features n let yur eyes sore looking at it throughout yur ownership years…that’s 9 yrs i believe?

Apparently the Zafira (A, which is the one that was sold here) was developed by Opel and Porsche. It is a rather old design though, but instead of this Korean car they should have brought in the Zafira C instead.

Also 2 airbags are pathetic.

And the Nabira was the Opel Zafira, so probably a German car. Not a Korean one.

…as most Malaysian do… Sucks not being able to pass a traffic light because all drivers accelerate so slow that only a few cars can make it.

for that price, I myself would buy an exora + a viva for my wife.. but I would never say that exora is better than orlando or vice versa.. because my choice is heavily influenced by my limited budget, not the specs..
