The picture show no sound proof material. If have usually the material is about 5-10mm thick and heavy.

I think only soundproof wheel arc nia.
S model include base.

I soundproof my old car doors... But didnt help much..

Wondering are there gaps when door close... Must check all rubber seal

Soundproof on doors is better if have ICE to reduce vibrations. Imo soundproof on roof, base and wheel arc more important.

SP of the doors will make a difference if you are fussy about how your door speakers sound and if the door feels very tinny... like my old Civic FD3. After SP the doors close with a nice solid thud instead of a hollow tinny sound. Also helpful if there are loose bits of trim inside which cause rattles. Don't expect the car to sound much quieter though.

Initially I have the same thinking as you to install original Honda HU. I purposely go to Kah Motors showroom to take a look of Jazz HU, however it is seems that all Honda HU are custom-made to suit per model as the dimension of the panel seems cannot fit into Vezel's HU opening hole.

�

is it? wow lau.. i prefer the honda HU lei.. looks more fitted than the HU which a PI offer me. hopefully can install the honda HU when kah motor bring in the HRV...

Ya i think aftermarket sound proofing wont help too much.. the road noise for vezel is still ok right ?? . sorry as cannot test drive the vezel so cannot make any comparison myself...

I think the road noise is bearable and you will get used to it. of course, certain types of roads, you will get louder noises but as I was on the NS highway, i didn't get distracted with the noise too much. bearable, la

Bro... If soundproof base... Must remove the seats?

This one I got no idea...but I think very costly.
My Fit noise mainly is from the floor and boot since I got 2 pieces of soundproof material on each doors and also extra door seal. Usually I can't hear the noise when I on my head unit volume 9 level.

Honda cars are not known for good noise insulation. If quiet is a major priority you should really look elsewhere. Think only the Accord and perhaps the CRV could be considered quiet.

Thai built HR-V launched only as a 1.8L

http://paultan.org/2...n=internallinks

�

�

The Honda HR-V has been launched in Thailand. The B-segment SUV is positioned as a �premium sport crossover� in the Land of Smiles and is only available in 1.8 litre form, paired to a CVT automatic gearbox. In keeping with the premium positioning, there�s no 1.5L or manual version in Thailand.

The 1.8 litre engine is question makes 141 PS at 6,500 rpm and 172 Nm of torque at 4,300 rpm, similar to the one in the Civic 1.8. The SOHC i-VTEC unit is paired to Honda�s G Design Shift CVT automatic gearbox. The engine is E85 biofuel compatible for the Thai market.

The HR-V sits on the platform that underpins the B-segment City and Jazz duo, but its wheelbase is the longest in the family at 2,610 mm, 10 mm longer than the sedan and 80 mm longer than the hatch. Being an SUV, it�s the tallest too � all versions ride on 17-inch alloys with 215/55 tyres.

Three grades are on offer in Thailand � S, E and EL. Standard on the entry-level S grade are Ultra Seats, Smart Key (keyless entry) with push start, electric parking brake, ECON mode button, LED tail lamps, five-inch touch screen head unit, Bluetooth, touch-sensitive auto air-con, ABS, EBD, Hill Start Assist, Isofix, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) and dual front airbags.

The E adds on LED headlamps with daytime running lamps (DRLs), paddle shifters, cruise control, seven-inch touch screen head unit with Advance Touch, SIRI and smartphone integration, two USB ports (one in S), and HDMI port and six speakers (four in S).

The top of the range EL spec gets luxuries such as a panoramic roof, �tube style� LED rear lamps, piano black interior trim plus side and curtain airbags to make it six in total.

\

Also available is an optional Modulo pack, which includes visual add-ons such as an all-round bodykit, a different grille treatment and larger 18-inch, dual-tone wheels. Also thrown in are stylised wing mirror caps, grab handle covers, front fender garnish, boot sill protector and window visors.

The HR-V starts from 890,000 baht (RM90,922) for the S, rising to 975,000 baht (RM99,609) for the E. The range topping EL goes for 1.045 million baht (RM106,761). Colour options include Alabaster Silver, Crystal Black Pearl, White Orchid Pearl, Ruse Black Metallic and Morpho Blue Pearl.

Now that the HR-V has been launched in Indonesia and Thailand, Malaysia should be next in the list. This will be a hot one when it lands, for sure.

From this photo can see there are 2 small buttons near the steering wheel audio control. Is it the same one we have in sg?

That was quite impressive given that the speed is normally higher on NS highway, by default most sg driver will drive at least 15 % above limit [:)]

�

LOL,.. but the newest Accord has Active Noise Cancellation-

�

Active Noise Cancellation� (ANC)

Active Noise Cancellation� (ANC) uses the audio system to generate out-of-phase sound waves to reduce engine noise inside the cabin and create a more pleasant driving experience.

This should negate some of the noise that gets into the car because of inadequate insulation.

Have not seen this tech being used in the lower end Hondas.

wah, really?! wow, i hope they were "stalking" the vezel, not me!
the trip was good, thanks. went to KL for the weekend.
�
the car performed better than expected, at least for me. passengers were very comfortable, the ride was very smooth. i went as fast as 140km speed and the car was stable and steering firm and did not shake. i had a full load of passengers so maybe that added to the stability, I guess; but then it also affected the fuel consumption; i could manage only 17km/l at best. i am a law-abiding driver so never push the car too hard or drive faster than speed limit. on the way back, it was raining super heavily so had to slow down much of the way. i forgot to monitor the range, sorry.
�
got quite a bit of 'stares' from M'sian cars (!!); at first, i wondered if something was wrong with the car but after a while realised they were admiring the car!
�
over-taking was smooth and pick-up when required was there. notice a little bit of 'lagging' when going uphill and the dial turned 'blue' straight away! went up with full tank and had roughly 1/4 (about 5 bars) left by the time i reached malacca on the way back (didn't drive much in KL itself).
�
to me - especially when i compare to my previous car -�the driver's (height) position is commanding as the 'view' seems wider and there is more 'presence' on the road. ultimately, to me, i feel the vezel gives one the versatility of a family-passenger carrier and yet sporty-rugged mover. makes sense or not?!
�
at the causeway jam on the way back, i switched off the auto-stop function to avoid the start-stop feature, but otherwise,
i had it on all the time.

Bro, it was me that spotted u on the NSHW towards KL. I was driving a Nissan and overtake u a few times to look closely on the car. Hahaha... I still have ur car pic on my phone. Lol. Hope u dun mind, im jus admiring and totally envy...

Agreed with bros here that noise insulation not so good. Have been driving it for a few days now. My old Nissan has better noise insulation as well as quieter engin. However Vezel has much more features and better FC, not to mention more chio also. Lolx.

Were in Japan the last few days. Based on my observation, the few popular SUV models on the street:

1) Toyota Harrier

2) Mazda CX-5

3) Honda Vezel - saw a few hybrids

4) Nissan X-Trail

So I finished my first full tank and fetched a rather disappointing 14.7km/l on Econ and start-stop modes.. Issit me or are u guys getting the same reading? =\

�

A lot depends on where you travel (expressway or city driving) and how much pressure you put on your pedals

I normally try to be gentle�

last week i was averaging 18km/L with driving speeds btw 70 to 90km/h with ECON mode

�

this week speed btw 80 to 100km/h and still managing 17.6km/L
it went down because of jams and intermittent start stop traffic on the expressway

�

btw what was ur mileage at the end of the tank

i normally pump when left two bars, which is abt 550-570km range

Wow that is outstanding FC.

My old Civic Hybrid would get at best 19km/L on highway runs. In mixed urban/highway driving I would seldom get 15km/L. 14.7km/L sounds pretty darn good for a non-hybrid/ non-diesel on our congested roads to me...

rather same results as you; it's better when on expressway when you can go 80 - 90km where I find it is optmum

�

Same here. For me as long as it got better FC than my previous car, I'm happy already! :)

I normally travel abt 80-90, admittedly overtaking at 100 when needed.. =P and I try my best to be light on the throttle.. It was about 520Km+.. Maybe it's the jams.. I get stuck normally on kpe in the mornings..

bro kpe in fact gave me the best fuel consumption, i traveled from TPE-KPE-AYE 18.6km/l

Based on the weight vs capacity of the car, I think it's pretty decent on the FC.

X model.. U can tell from the LED headlight..

Still pending for vitas inspection..

Edited by Tttwei, 26 November 2014 - 09:36 PM.

Its pretty good. It is ok. If the Eco button is off it is even more powerful.�
Suppose to be a 2 litre performance due to high compression engine.�
�
I downgraded from a salon 2.4 litre. Still find it ok. Its not Q5 pickup though but for the price it is good.
Just find it abit noisy on some roads. Maybe it is the wheel area. Trying to think what to do.

I guess our standards of acceptance are different.

Buti like the design and overall look.

oh the headlight got difference ah? I didnt notice it.

Bro yours is x or s?

Hi bro, mine is the X model. Think I am not use to it yet.

But I am super loving the SUV feel and drive.

If car reached Singapore port, it takes a couple of days for custom clearance, declaring of taxes etc.. then the car will be towed to showroom liao, whereby it will sit and join the queue for Vitas inspection.

�

I am driving for 4 days now and running abt 15.6-16 km/l. Traveling between kpe & cte. 70% highway 30% city. Speed still low at 60-70km/hr as I wish to run-in the engine a bit before I pick up the speed to 80-90 which should be optimum. KPE jam in the morning is horrible.

Tried cruise control today at 70km/hr at TPE. Very the shoik ah!

I also notice if u turn on the wiper timer to the max, it is kind of auto. When car stop, the wiper slow down. When moving the wiper activate faster. Any bro experience this?

Not sure the correct words to use but is to set the time or frequency to activate the wiper to swipe.

Bro Sweattan1,

�

I suggest you keep pressurising your PI/SE. Give�him more calls and probably go down to have coffee with them. In order to have a smooth transaction, do it in a mature manner. Don't get angry and shout.�You can always quote some of us here who booked the same time, even later, and have already seen their car arrived. If it is the real deal, your PI should be able to provide a reasonable answers.

�

Maybe you could also contact those bros in this forum and visit your PI together.

Hey bros,�

Anyone went to the workshop and ask whether we can permanently disable the CTBA and auto turn off engine function ?

Just find out the name of our car in different countries

Japan - Vezel
America - HR-V
China- XR-V

Hey bros,�

�

�

Why want to disable them? Thought they were included for�safer &�economical reasons. Doesn't perform the way it should be?

By the way, I guess nobody have used it yet and I hope nobody have to. Without the spare tyres, how do we even use the repair kit provided? Anyone experienced enough?

�

It's to "mend" and "patch" wherever possible. If damage to tyres still beyond repair, then got to call tow truck.�

Lots of cars nowadays coming without spare tyres liao... a lot of continental car users replaced their run flat tyres with better performance tyres, also no spare tyres nor repair kit.

not sure why you would want to do that; the CTBA is a safety feature that comes equipped with the S & W models right (?) becos the G model does not have it.

Yea the CTBA is a good safety feature. But every time I drive to the parking gantry with CTBA on. It will beep and suddenly E brake. Then there is this crunching of gear sound. Which I worried it might damage something in the car.�

�

I went to Google it and the CTBA activates only when we are traveling at 30km or below and it will brake for you once it sense an obstacle nearby . Which is why it only happens when i'm going through the gantry.�

�

Gantries that is on ground level still not so bad. If you drive up those gantry with slopes. You will need to pedal harder to move up and the CTBA will stop you.�

�

Yes it does, at low speeds i.e. below 30km/h

In fact, I find it rather irritating at times, well... most of the time.

�

Most recent incident was carpark upslope.

Drove "too close" to the barrier and the CTBA came on (with warning beep beep beep), cutting engine power and car started to roll backwards. Luckily no car behind.

�

Another time, while moving off from traffic light, i was again "too close" to lorry in front and (warning beep beep beep) auto e.brake! Damn!

�

It may give you a fright.

I was startled initially but getting used to it now.

�

�

Engine stop does affects the air-con.

�

But you can either manually turn this off (it will be auto-activated each time u start ur car).

�

OR

when stopping, depress brake just enough to stop the car and not to depress all the way.

There is actually a slight gap in between.

Of course, dun hold it in macham half-clutch position.

�

Usually, if i know the green light is coming on soon, i will not depress the brake all the way.

�

Bro CTBA is a good thing, it actually 'assist' you when you fail to react suddenly to an object or vehicle nearby

my CTBA has been working very well not just near car park gantries, on the expressway in a jam, at a traffic junction also works well. It proves that the senors are there for a reason

but i can understand the sudden nature of it and i have already gotten use to it and just step on the accelerator and move off slowly

Happened to my last Sunday going into a parking gantry as well. Gave me a shock before i realise it is the CTBA. However, i do not think i will turn it off as it is a good safety feature.

�

I find that the start stop engine is a great way to save petrol but upon releasing the brake and restarting, the car jerk or vibrate, just like you are starting the car. I tend not to step the brake all the way if i find it is only for a short stop.

Happened to my last Sunday going into a parking gantry as well. Gave me a shock before i realise it is the CTBA. However, i do not think i will turn it off as it is a good safety feature.

�

I find that the start stop engine is a great way to save petrol but upon releasing the brake and restarting, the car jerk or vibrate, just like you are starting the car. I tend not to step the brake all the way if i find it is only for a short stop.

�

I do that as well but exercise caution not to leave it at "half-clutch" position --> dunno of any better way to describe this.

It will do more damage instead.
�

Actually even after watching the CTBA demo video, I still not sure how it works.�

�

For example, when I drive up and down the multi storey carpark, my car is very near the wall of the turn and I am travelling below 30km but the CTBA didn't activate. �So if I didn't angle my turn nicely, I will still kiss the wall ?�

�

At first I thought this CTBA can prevent me from kissing other cars backside but seems like it doesn't activate at high speed.�

�

Because I only experience it when I go to parking gantry. I have no other experience with it. That's why I find it mafan lol�

Gantry can be avoided by not going too close...

�

I experienced it couple of times while on the road... which oso can be avoided if i dun drive too close and not by turning the feature off.

Hi Seankwa, thanks for the advice. I didn't know that it will do more damage. But what do you mean "half clutch"?

�

Normally I do not press/step all the way but car not moving/fully stop. After a few seconds a yellow light brake paddle indicator, lights up for 2-3 seconds before turning off. I have experience this many times. Is this bad for the car?

�

No choice bro, some gantry need to put in coupon or take ticket. Have to drive close.

�

On road during peak hours I tend to tail gate . But the CTBA no activate when i am near the front car.�

�

If its fully stopped then it should be fine...

�

What i mean is.. not to be in a state of partial moving n stopping...

Grinding, wear & tear will take place.

Hi bro, I also intended to change my rim. Can you put up a photo of yours and also what is the size. Thanks a lot in advance.

Assuming you stop and wait at the road side to pick up someone,

�

On a fully charged capacitor/battery, how long can it run with aircon/radio on before the engine auto-start again?

�

Bro Sean explained it better. If it doesn't bother you then no issue. But I find it quite mafan. Other than that the car is awesome max

Means you are all unsafe on the road! [grin]

Magic seat is referring to the 60/40 folding seats.

Fold down flat or raise up.

I think this is cool, very flexible and shows some thought went into the design.

�
Yea the CTBA is a good safety feature. But every time I drive to the parking gantry with CTBA on. It will beep and suddenly E brake. Then there is this crunching of gear sound. Which I worried it might damage something in the car.�
�
I went to Google it and the CTBA activates only when we are traveling at 30km or below and it will brake for you once it sense an obstacle nearby . Which is why it only happens when i'm going through the gantry.�
�
Gantries that is on ground level still not so bad. If you drive up those gantry with slopes. You will need to pedal harder to move up and the CTBA will stop you.�

CTBA work best in filter lane in Singapore. Especially, the car in front e brake due to mis-judgement.

For those bros here still waiting for your Vezel, I hope that this piece of information can eased the burden while you still in doubt about your PI answer.

This afternoon I went down to my PI (own by my personal friend) to chit chat with his staff (anyway I have already collected my car few weeks ago). I asked him that what is the typical waiting time for Japanese car, he mentioned that it take about 4 months if you booked the car for a fresh shipment. He also mentioned that some of the shipment can be delay up to a month (based on his past experience). One of his customer is waited 9 months for his car that came from Europe.

Thanks for the info. I guess there are�a few factors that�are beyond the control of PI. But then again they should not promise guaranteed if stock is not in our shores. just my 2cents on this.

�

ps I like to praise you but unfortunately not enough points to praise another 19 more before I can praise you again. sorry.

...... Most recent incident was carpark upslope.

Drove "too close" to the barrier and the CTBA came on (with warning beep beep beep), cutting engine power and car started to roll backwards. Luckily no car behind.� ......

�

�

�

Bro, I do not have experience with stop start and CTBA.

�

I do drive auto vehicle and never experience car roll back in D mode (due to the tranny is always in gear and not free or neutral)

�

This is not the case with Vezel by your description. Is this due to the stop start feature. When it stop it goes to Neutral hence may roll back on uneven ground?.

�

Please elaborate more..

�

Thanks for your help.

Bro, the roll back was due to ctba, not engine start stop. The slope was steep n the roll back was momentary.�

�

Vezel has a hill assist or something feature.

On a slope, It does not roll backwards even after u relased the brake.�

Did Vitas Emissions Test yesterday. Current batch Vezels confirmed to still have CEVS Rebate at $10K. For now.... CEVS Rebate slated to end in June 2015 though as mentioned by LTA.

for the same selling price, I prefer CEV to be none or $5K at most.

You might want to try the internet, ebay, taobao, or one of the other internet online stores. They might already have it.

Alternatively, go to a workshop and ask them to custom one for you, shouldn't be too difficult with an alu plate, some screws and handiwork. ;)

�

Just now I went down to Tuff City and looked around: there were plenty of Vezels there. I really liked the car for its design and layout. In fact, my bro and I sat in both the Vezel and the Harrier, and I actually preferred the Vezel: it was quieter, surprisingly big boot and its more economical overall.

Hi mistercars,

�

Can I check with you?

�

Once, importer declared the OMV and Paid All the relevant charges and taxes, car should leave port storage right?

�

Car will be at your�own shop�or holding storage,�while waiting for VITAS before Inspection at approves centers such as VICOM etc?

�

Appreciate your help greatly.

�

Thanks

�

I have test drive the Vezel S model, the car seems dragging during initial gear and the engineer sound become louder when I try to accerate the speed. Not sure if this normal behavior since Vezel come only with 1.5l engine.

Nowadays, OMV is decided by Customs after considering all factors and average of the same car model. Once GST and relevant taxes are paid, we will put at our showroom, workshop or storage as you've mentioned,

Then the wait for Vitas and Vicom inspections begin.

ARF is paid only during registration of vehicle.

thanks mistercars.

Price will adjust accordingly in tandem with the rebate value.

Market is same for all including properties. Willing buyer, willing seller. If you happen to buy at a much higher price as compared with market prices, it was your decision to purchase, it's also buyer's own duty to practice due diligence.

�

Promise car delivery, you got to check if this was stated on the contract, in black and white, or via any forms of recorded correspondence. Got to see what's the T&Cs.. If verbal promise only, I doubt can do much.

Saw a white Vezel parked at Boon Keng multi storey car park. It has the rim from the promotional brochure�which I am eyeing for. Not sure whether the bro/sis of this car is�reading this forum. Can anyone share whether this rim can be bought locally or have to import from Japan.

Bro.. PM you

Just wanted to know what kind of engine oil (both brand and viscosity). Because Honda Vezel's Manual is recommended 0W-20. Do you guys think it is a bit too thin based on Singapore climate?

Must keep in mind that we are buying direct imports from japan and the manual is not yet fully cater to SG. So must do some adjustment ourself.
