Dull Replacement Models...


The all new, 2nd generation Nissan X-Trail will be launched by Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) in this week! However, the replacement is disappointing...

The design is unattractive and doesn't look as classy as Peugeot 3008 or Honda C-RV (but X-Trail is more rugged-looking).


As you can see, we are getting the 'cheap' model (the steering wheel is so 'naked'!!!). And yet, it's priced at RM149k OTR inclusive insurance! Peugeot 3008 win hands down in terms of equipment!

They kept their winning formula though, removable and washable cargo floor with hidden trays.


However, the facelifted X-Trail (for the 2nd time) was released at the same time somewhere in this world!

It look so much more modern and attractive!


Same rims with the recently facelifted Rogue!


Next up is the Waja replacement model. Proton decided to rebadge the current generation of Mitsubishi Lancer, but it is not up to my expectation...


I was expecting an all new front and rear design! But Proton only changed the front bumper and grille's design...
And pls dun tell me that rim will be the final design for the all-new Waja. It's so boring looking...
