2018 Citroen DS5 1.6 THP

It's not entirely accurate to say that the Sonata is definitely more luxury than the Elantra. The Sonata is a D-class (mid-size) sedan, while the Elantra is a compact sedan. The Sonata usually has a larger body. For example, the length of the 2020 Sonata 2.5 Premium reaches 4900 mm, offering more interior space, especially in the rear seats and the trunk. In contrast, the Elantra is smaller in size. In terms of configuration, some Sonata models are equipped with advanced technologies such as a 360-degree parking camera system, HUD head-up digital display, and a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel. However, the Elantra has a more affordable price and also provides the basic configurations needed for daily driving. The starting price of the Sonata is RM 147,588 (the 2017 Sonata 2.0 Elegance), which is higher than that of some Elantra models. But this doesn't necessarily mean that the Sonata is always more luxury because both cars have their own unique selling points to meet the needs of different customers.

The Toyota Crown may potentially enter the Malaysian market, but currently it is not sold in Malaysia.

Vehicles like the Mazda 3 combine sporty aesthetics with a comfortable driving experience. The better choice depends on personal needs and preferences. If practicality and a broad product range are your priorities, Honda may be the more suitable option. For those seeking distinctive design and superior handling, Mazda is an ideal choice.

The transmission types of the Perodua Alza include MT (Manual Transmission) and CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). In the early days, some models in 2018, like the 2018 Perodua Alza 1.5 S MT, were equipped with the MT transmission. The manual transmission allows drivers to have a more direct experience of the driving pleasure. They can flexibly adjust the gears according to different road conditions and driving needs through manual shifting. Since the 2022 model, the Alza has been replaced with a D - CVT transmission. For example, all models from 2022 to 2023 use this type of transmission. In addition to the common steel belt, the D - CVT transmission also has a gear. When driving at high speed, the power will switch from the steel belt to the split gear, enabling the vehicle to accelerate faster, maximize the acceleration, reduce the engine speed, save fuel consumption, and bring a smoother driving experience and better fuel economy.

The road tax for the Honda City is calculated based on its 1.5L engine displacement (1497cc). Currently, vehicles with an engine displacement below 1.5L follow this fee: The first 1,000cc costs RM20, and for the next 501 to 1,500cc, it's charged at RM0.025 per cc. So, the annual road tax for the Honda City is approximately RM70 (the calculation is: RM20 + 500cc x RM0.025 = RM20 + RM50 = RM70). If the vehicle has been registered for more than 5 years, an additional 10% surcharge is required (that is RM77), and for vehicles 9 years old or older, a 20% surcharge is needed (RM84). You can pay the road tax online through the JPJ official website, MyEG, or Pos Malaysia, or you can handle it directly at the JPJ counter or designated agents. It's worth noting that the road tax is a mandatory fee. Failure to pay on time may result in a fine of RM300 or more. It is recommended that car owners renew it on time to avoid affecting the vehicle insurance and the legality of driving.

To confirm whether a specific Mark X model is equipped with turbocharger, it's advisable to check the vehicle's detailed technical specifications or consult a Toyota dealership.
