No stock la , i enquiry liao .Originally posted by SBS9818A:Poolman, apply to Smart for the E200NGT.
Anyway , it's good this new companies putting the pressure on Comfort , Comfort will eventually give in . -
Sounds cheap , but my HQ clarified with me , that the daily rental is not as rumour $80 , it's actual $97 .Originally posted by SBS 233 X:Korean cars.....
Should be cheap...so Comfort buys it..
So the car is cheap , but rental is a bit higher than the current Toyota Crown .
They told me currently only 2 on trial , testing out to see if it's workable in long run , if the maintenance cost is higher than the Crown .
It's a Auto car , guess they're worry about the maintenance of a auto transmission taxi , unprecedented change for Comfort .
Komoco has to look into the Taxi market , cos it's a free market now , anyone can set-up a Taxi company , and every 5 - 8 years the taxi has to be scrap , less competition . Now the market is control by Toyota and Nissan , and Mercedes , now Hyundai wants a market share . -
since hyundai is asian., then it shld be manual ma..
mercedes all auto cars, so taxis also follow auto.....
dont know why this one is auto..
so the sonata taxi is same as/ available as a private passenger car, or specially for taxis?
cos we dont see nissan cedric or crown taxis as private cars, but they have other variants -
You can't stereotype like that. The C class does come with a manual box in Europe, so does the 3-series.Originally posted by 105090:since hyundai is asian., then it shld be manual ma..

Cannot say like that ..... all cabbies prefers to driver auto , if there's a choice , now we have a choice , at a higher rental , it's up to us , it's an option now .Originally posted by 105090:since hyundai is asian., then it shld be manual ma..

Have you got any idea , how many times we engaged gear according to research ? About 2000 times per day , base on 12 hours shift , don't ask me , i lost count ! That's the engineers research .
2000 times ...... 2000 times .... . -

Originally posted by Poolman:Yes sir , me a Comfort Cabby , a Liverpool-at-heart Comfort cabby ! So, going to get the Sonata? Or sticking to the Crown for now?
-
Now they on-trial , don't know whether they really investing on this model .Originally posted by LazerLordz: So, going to get the Sonata? Or sticking to the Crown for now?
Must see also the rental on the Toyota Crown got adjust lower after this trial , if they adjust lower , i might be sticking to Crown until they scrap .
If they still insist on the same rental on Crown , i might switch if they have , of course better for me , crown tired to engaged gear , pay $8 more , i get auto , more relax u know , auto ? Kana CTE jam also no problem , now leg tired to jam at CTE ....
-
so when can we sit in theses sonatas to our destination ?
-
The whole of Singapore has got only 2 now , you got luck , maybe u can get one .Originally posted by evolute8:so when can we sit in theses sonatas to our destination ?
If the trial is successful , they full swing next year , 2007 . -
i think one reason for change to auto instead of manual is for passenger comfort ba.. cabby tired lazy change gear or change gear improperly also uncomfortable for passenger.. auto "ensures" smoother gear change also ma.. then also means better productivity cos drivers "last" longer (less tired)? even buses also auto now so nothing wrong wad.. anyway the sonata is diesal la? not cng la?

wat's the registration number...

Auto, no problem la, all HK taxi now use Auto box, and maintainence didn't go up high....btw: 98% of them are Crown Comfort too la....enought OEM parts, cheap cheap, maybe Comfort should try AT Crown too..Originally posted by Poolman:Sounds cheap , but my HQ clarified with me , that the daily rental is not as rumour $80 , it's actual $97 .

How come SHA , not SHC?Originally posted by Poolman:SHA 6006 and SHA 6009
Maybe reuse regos? -
Any servicing picture, btw, is the taxi use the 2.0 CRDI engine like those in EU?Originally posted by Poolman:SHA 6006 and SHA 6009

Ya lor , no idea why .....Originally posted by iveco:Recycles rego? -
me no pictures , haven't got any idea what's the capacity like , just two Sonantas , and i also dunno this two drivers .Originally posted by art0925:Any servicing picture, btw, is the taxi use the 2.0 CRDI engine like those in EU?
I really don't hope is a 2000cc version , not enough power for us , 3000cc will be ideal !
2000cc ??? Not a good idea , sure got problem in the long run ...... cos taxi business is a 24 hrs thing , 3000cc can tahan the long haul on the road , i doubt 2000cc can tahan that long haul . -
But I thought the 2.7 CRDI couldn't fit the sonata, therefore, it only offer 2.0 CRDI in EU....
