i always felt that "nissan reliability" is kinda deluded and inaccurate representation of the brand.....trust me , its not as reliable as u think , and i wd say , its definetly below toyota and honda when it comes to reliability ....i dont think Renault in msia is presented well , the pricing is off , and when u r a brand of such low volume , u really want to expand network first and offer buyers a compelling choice versus the competition , and somehow they dont offer any of that ,kinda sad reality of the brand , bcos , it looks so awesome on the road , its lane filling presence is almost unmatched....
Below Toyota and Honda yes, but reliable enough that the cars don't break down frequently, and there is a sufficient volume of cars on the road that reasonably-priced parts are available in decent numbers.
Realistically I'd see them adding around 20-30k onto the cost of the existing range. Depends on drivetrain too, as I think would consider bringing in the 2.0 180hp engine to lug around the extra weight. Cause I think 180k for comfortline and 200k for highline would be very competitive - too bad VW Malaysia seems to have quite a bad stigma around it.
It won't. I myself own a 2018 Skoda Kodiaq (Skoda version) and the space is vast compared to the Renault. No need to worry about the DSG as it's a DQ500 which is the most bulletproof one (wet clutch 7spd). We have a friend who owns one and it's rubbish compared to the Kodiaq.
Fantastic. If you ever come to New Zealand you need to review it! Way better drive than the competition imo - Santa Fe and CX-9. Paid about MY190k for an almost fully loaded 2.0 TDI 190PS/400Nm
Here is the thing about car reviewers, although many might not be bothered.... sit in the rear "See I have this much of legroom and headroom". Duuhhh... do I know even your height to know if it is "alot"?. Most of this cliche is what I find amusing with reviewers. The car has good pickup...well, obviously with 1 passenger it should have , else...5 people would make it to be a lorry wouldn't it?. Hence, whether one wants to detail just information...that is the reviewer's style, but I find all this not so useful to me, like telling me the food is nice and delicious.
love ur review man.. straight to the point, no nonsense review.
Well put together review. Tq. Renault offering some decent rebates right now on this car.....
Kon's review language is really precise.
What do u think about the CVT in this koleos? Is is any difference with other CVT’s out there? The whinning sound from the CVT especially.. thanks
Hi kon, is the 2020 koleos signature a good car to have? Plan to change my chev captiva 2011.

Plz do review the new koleos signature..
It's essentially the Koleos 2WD with 4WD equipment. I'd say go for the 4WD.
Price for this car?
Which has better ride comfort over bumps and rough roads this or the tiguan?
If ride comfort, this for sure.
thanks
Kon will you be doing a review on the new cx 5 diesel version ?
+kunaal shewandas yes. Footages filmed, now in the midst of editing. ;)
great, will be looking out for it. thanks
Rather have a Tiguan if I didn't need the size. Malaysia getting the Allspace version?
+Zachary Ong no word of the Allspace version yet. What do you reckon would be a fair price if they bring it in?

Nice. How are you liking the Kodiaq? Skoda is dead in the water in our market. Sad.
