Why are Mazda cars much cheaper than Toyota?

[crimsontactics]

Based on my understanding, mazda 3 got more cevs rebate, 10k rebate vs toyota vios 5k.

I went show room get the pricing, vios is 98k vs mazda 3 99k.. that was 2 weeks ago. Both 1.5 cars, but mazda 3 in this case is more expensive than vios even after the more cevs rebate..

Fyi, altis was 109k... the sgcarmart price usually is more ex. Need to go to show room get the promo price..

Thanks for the information! That's like close to 30k of the stated price on the website.

I'm a bit skeptical abt the new engine ~ high compression ish easily hot
Fuel grade must fill up 98 ron ???

It accepts RON 95

Not sure true or not

Toyota brand name people trust

Easy to sell car

Be it quality or brand good, people get it becoz well known

Design wise like not that special, always look safe

Other brands no choice but to focus on they factors when marketing their cars

Heard that some parts are actually the same

Especially during made in japan days

Mazda 3 is now 1.5L engine meh?

Last time i drove 2006 was 1.6L, same class as corolla, not vios.
And the handling is far better than anyother Jap Cars

Mazda servicing and fuel consumption will set you back more.

I think on SG roads can't really feel the difference in handling bah.

SGcarmart said Mazda 3 performance and FC same as Altis. Most Jap cars about the same FC lah.

Can feel. At least i can.

But anyway, i also drive up to Malaysia too.

Anyway, just check sgcxxxxrt, really the 1.5L Mazda 3 offers good spec.
I think far better than the old 1.6 mazda 3

Just curious. MY buy Altis or Mazda 3 cost how much ar?

 

[xboxer]

But the question here is, are the Mazda 3 and 6 reliable or not? Toyota and Honda are reliable.
