D Segment Car Comparison In Malaysia

Hye U Ollz...

Before we start, lets me introduce what is D-segment car? D-segment car is a large family car or compact executive car. Normally, D-segment cars is start from 2.0 liter engine capacity and above. In Malaysia, we have many D-segment cars on road like Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, Nissan Teana, Proton Perdana, BMW 3/5 series, Merc E Class, and much more. It just a few names mentioned because in Malaysia market, customers have many choices of D-segment cars from Japanese,Continental and now rising on attention, K-Pop car..(Korean)..




While I searching on Youtube, I found a interesting video from Paultan channel (Driven). FYI, Paultan is a motoring journalist based in Malaysia and he is very best known for his website, http://paultan.org/.
The video is about Toyota Camry 2.5 vs Honda Accord 2.4 vs Mazda6 2.5. As we know, Toyota Camry and Honda Accord are very famous in D-Segment in Malaysia. But I don't know why Nissan Teana is not listed in this comparison. But upcoming new Nissan Teana, at http://paultan.org/2014/05/16/2014-nissan-teana-l33-display-malls/...



Toyota Camry and Honda Accord are no need to introduce more.These models are well known among Malaysian. But new comes in this competition, Mazda6. Can Mazda6 can compete with "otai" Camry & Accord?? Lets see the video, reviewed by Driven Team...

New Perodua Myvi XT



Hye U Ollz…

 

I read Berita Harian’s newspaper today. Then, there is a part that attracted me to read. So I snap a picture to share with u ollz. Myvi XT was mentioned.Is that a new model launched by Perodua? After I finished my reading, Myvi XT actually was not a new model. It was a new variant that continued the legacy of Myvi. As we know, Perodua Myvi has been so popular ever since it’s first launch back in year 2005 and the best-selling models in Malaysia in 8 years in a row. We can see Myvi everywhere on the road, parking lot, and so on including at the park around UTHM. The staff, lectures and students also use Myvi. Take a look at the cars on the road, there is always at least one/two Myvi out of ten cars. Then I visited the Paultan website, one of my favourite motoring site. I read the review about Myvi XT, its specification and visitor comments. What make the difference between Myvi XT and other variants? Let’s check it out:



1. Got dual SRS airbags but no ABS with EBD & BA as higher-spec.
2. Still remains 1.3 K3-VE liter DVVT engine.
3.  14-inch alloy wheels in a five-spoke design rather than steel wheels with plastic hubcaps combination.
4. New pattern of fabric seat.
5. Audio Bluetooth and USB connectivity on head unit.
6. New design of the instrument panel surround, the center console and head unit trim as well as the trim on the door grabs.
7. Comes with manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.
8. No front fog lamps aka spotlights.
9. Comes with new color, Metallic Lime Green and currently Myvi color variants: Metallic Dazzling Red, Mystical Purple, Glittering Silver and Solid Ivory White.
10. Got 5 tires. 5 tires?? 1 is spare tire in boot lor…:D

Tips For Save Fuel

Hye U Ollz..




As the increasing of fuel price nowadays, peoples are start thinking twice to drive out. The price of petrol is expensive now. Its like a "black-gold" and the price are keep increasing depends on the global price.At the current price now, the price of petrol RON 97 is RM2.90/liter, RON 95-RM2.10/liter and diesel-RM2.00/liter. Here are some tips how you can save on fuel :

1. Not driving aggressive and high speed – The more you accelerate, the higher the fuel consumption.

2. Regularly check the tire pressure - Tires that have low pressure have higher rolling resistance to road surface, as a result brings the high fuel consumption problem.

3. Use gear wisely – Using the right gear depends on the driving mode.  

4. Do regularly service and maintenance. It will help the engine in the good condition as a result maintain the performance of vehicle.

5. Change the filling way – Petrol evaporates fast. If you’re pumping at fast rate, some of the liquid inside the petrol tank will change to vapor. 

6. Reduce the load – Remove the unnecessary things from vehicle boot. It is because as increasing the load, the more energy used to move the vehicle. 

7. Plan the journey first – It will help us to avoid traffic jam.
