try SHB772A.
-
How come no logo?
-
There's a small SMRT SPACE logo just behind the back door.Wonder why they don't use the 3.2litres TDI Stavic?Mercedes-Benz engine,1st/2nd/3rd gear very powerful due to the enormous torque.But top speed a bit wobbly just like the E22O CDI.
-
Look very ugly.
-
this vehicle at 2696cc cant even beat Toyota Crown..
initially, i thought this is another normal MPV.. only recognise it by the taxi cap..
dont think this cabby will want any flag down jobs aka limousine service.. -

Nanana,You got it wrong,Majority European diesel engine can beat any Japanese/Korean Marque.Take an example Renault Traffic 1.9TDI can on par in terms of top speed/Acceleration with Toyota Hiace 2.5TDI?I think the crowns won't have an easy times beating them provided both are apr on weight to BHP.Originally posted by 105090:this vehicle at 2696cc cant even beat Toyota Crown..
