X-Trail, now Kicks are the previous generation models. The local market is more sophisticated and perhaps ETC should bring in the actual current models
Very cute car always whenever I see this model it always reminded me the Singaporean driver who I think tried to test his e-Pedal feature which ended up crashing into the multi storey car park wall
I was really hoping they'd bring in the Nissan Note. It would have been more affordable. Are malaysians that obsessed with SUVs that they wouldn't consider smaller vehicles like the Note?
The 1.5-turbo 3-cylinder VC-turbo engine is fraught with problems. If it comes here it'll be a massive lemon. Many cases of premature bearing wear on the complicated variable compression linkage assemblies. Pistons on the VC system end up having freeplay and results in uneven stroke lengths and compression ratios across the three cylinders. Great concept and ingenious mechanism, but in practice you have an overly complex engine with high risk of premature failure.
Honda hrv rs ehev pun tak guna engine to drive tapi kena roadtax juga, saya pakai hrv hybrid... Nissan punye engine ni sama dgn hrv hybrid.. Engine tu utk charge the batt but at high speed engine will take over the batt
No. e:HEV drives the wheels at higher speeds. e-Power uses the electric motor at all times. There is no physical connection between the engine and the wheels. There is also no gearbox.
@@kunyitkgtak sama, beza sangat. Nissan epower ni adalah EV yg ada builtin charger 😅, ice hanya sebagai power generator. Electric motor dah mesh sekali dgn transmission. Sebab tu cc ice yg pakai epower ni kecik, 1.2cc, 1.4cc, electric motor sbg maindrive.
I like the tech but the design overall looks pretty outdated for 2025. There are many cars more appealing. I wish they would have just brought in the next gen model.
I’m very disappointed because this is the old model. In the USA, they are selling the new model which looks much better than this one. Why is Tan Chong Motors keep selling old models in this country?
I prefer the looks of this model to the US model which looks hideous to me. This one looks more elegant, subtly elegant. The US model looks awkward and peculiar, screaming, "look at me! I look different."

Very well articulated and comprehensive review.
had the opportunity to ride in this in Thailand and immediately noticed it's much quieter and comfortable than the HRV
We also noted its class-leading refinement and on-road confidence.
wow, rear view screen.
That's what a lot of SUV needs to overcome the very limited rear view.
Hope more SUV copy this.

We have pedal misoperation alert, and AEB.
No diff from EVs...
To me this is not a hybrid since the engine was not used to drive the transmission. So this is technically an EV. Just not the typical plug-in EV.
What a great host
like having a Power Generator in the car boot.
Generate your own electricity.
18:20 Bridgestone Ecopia does the job pretty well...

Yes.
I’m waiting for Serena E-Power
It seems that the battery is constantly charging and discharging during the drive.... so won't that degrade the battery much faster??
Nissan X.-Trail e Power, e 4force would be a better model to come in to M'sia.
There are processes to everything.

Had to squint, not even the new logo? That’s a bit curious given the lower bits in the cabin have been refreshed.
Waiting for serena c28 epower to be launched in Malaysia.
Which location is this filmed? Is that Klebang beach?
21:00 I would like to ask what’s the brand and model of wireless mic that you’re using Aiman?
It's some old model Comica. We don't actually remember which model exactly, the box was thrown away a long while ago.
@ I like the shape of that mic and have been guess searching on the internet what is it. Thanks for the reply, by the way.
price how much ... thx
Please watch the video as we explain this already. Thx.
Shouldn't JPJ waive the roadtax fee? Technically it's not using engine to drive
Logically, yes. However...

As long isi petrol walau setitik tetap kena road tax
everyone has up their production and quality of presentation, but paultan still the same since 2008.
If it ain't broke...
it looks like volvo xc40 from the side
😅😅😊

Is this the real deal?

Have you seen that new model in right-hand drive?
I prefer the looks of this model to the US model which looks hideous to me. This one looks more elegant, subtly elegant. The US model looks awkward and peculiar, screaming, "look at me! I look different."
1.5 cvt no e-power , not released in japan either , only lhd markets
Heard the battery is going to be ~8000, why so expensive for such a tiny battery!
140k? uh.....
Under RM130k.
@MalaysianMotoring ah, ok. but one may still choose hybrid from other make with that price imho.
