    Bro, can comment on what are the differences between the two? I do realise taobao is darn slow in delivery.


    I am under the impression taobao dont ship internationally so daigou is a forwarder service to buy their stuff.

    Collected our baby with my dad on 3 Jan! Ride is smooth, had a minor issue of accidentally immobilizing the engine but was sorted out within the hour. One thing we noticed was the engine roar when picking up speed is abit intrusive but tolerable. Drove almost 150km on the first day cargo hauling as we were moving house. The space with the rear seats down is really very very big.

    Oh did i mention the LED headlights and DRLs are gorgeous? They are freaaking bright to the extent that it has so much range it illuminates all 4 lanes of the E'way.

    The car is a head turner no doubt, feels like driving an advertisement board. Much thanks to cartimes and Robert for the service. It was rush but everything went smoothly in the end.

    indeed, it's an eye turner! after driving for more than 2 months already, still getting looks and second-takes along the roads

    Hi,

    I will be going to Shanghai for 2 days next week.

    If any bro that needs help to hand-carry any light weight, dedicated items, do PM me.

    But you have to find ways to bring the items to my hotel

    Cheers...

    may i take this opportunity to recommend iroad v7. it is much more affordable n more heat resistant than some blackvue models i used to own, short of the 1mp diff in recording resolutions, but has wifi connectivity (dongle separately sold) to android / ios, n can view, search n save video / image to ur mobile device on-the-spot. it even has built-in voltage cutoff n fused cable for direct connection to fusebox for 24/7 monitoring, unlike many others that need separate anti-batt-flat device. recording for both front n back at 30fps (this is impt as u don wan choppy video / too blurry image if paused to save image).

    i'm using one for almost 2 mths; so far works well when park under direct noon sun. look out for next sitex / IT show offer.

    Hi guys, just collected our White Vezel Hybrid and did a short objective review over the weekend over 200km of driving. As promised, I shall break it down into 3 parts for easy viewing, 1) Outlook, 2) Interior and 3) the Drive, and keep it short and sweet.

    Before we start, here's our beauty!�

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (14).jpg

    1) Outlook

    The Vezel Hybrid comes in a Pearl White paintwork which I believe is also available in the non-Hybrid versions. Going by usual Honda standards, the paint thickness is quite thin, so I might consider going for paint protection as most people do so.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (2).jpg

    The hybrid version comes with body colour wheel fenders, in contrast with the black finish of the non-Hybrid to differentiate the 2 modesl. Other than the obvious Hybrid tags all over the place, the only other exterior disparity are the rear brake light clusters, in which there is a slightly darker blue tint and LED lights instead of normal bulbs.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (5).jpg

    Wheels are decent looking 17" alloys, nothing much to shout out about. Tyres are Dunlop Sport Maxx 050 originating from Japan, size 215/55R17 94V, considered a decent OEM tyre. I shall touch on the impact on the Vezel's handling later, which is probably the most important aspect that needs to be shared.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (13).jpg

    The LED lights are BRIGHT. Really bright. Coupled with the high stance of our Vezels, you can literally blind lowered cars when behind them. Mark my words, these LEDs are brighter than ANY legal stock HIDs on the road and the throw is ridiculous. 4 lanes of expressway illuminated. I dare say these are around 7000-8500K temperature range. Its nuts that LTA didn't step in but La-La-La we enjoy bright roads while we can.

    To sum it up, nothing much different from the Vezel non-Hybrids, so moving along to the interior..

    2) Interior

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (7).jpg

    This is where the greatest change manifests itself. Tan faux-leather appears in the front fascia and all 4 sides of the panels. I chose the black faux-leather fitment across the board as I personally find the full-tan interior look a little too "Conti-imitation", and our humble JDM ride need not fight its battles with the Europeans.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (8).jpg

    The Hybrid possesses a vastly different instrument cluster, in which the number of features are significantly more complex than the non-Hybrids. Japanese-only descriptions do nothing to help. From here, you can see your instant/average fuel consumption, engine/motor combination drive diagram, reactive-force pedal engagement and more.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (10).jpg

    The Hybrid comes with the usual magic seats but strangely, I could not get the "Refresh-Mode" arrangement to work. Does this work on our JDM Vezels? Its such a waste if Honda left out this feature. As you can see, the black interior blends quite well with the tan armrests.�

    3. The Drive

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (15).jpg

    This part is intimate to me as I personally own a Honda Civic Type-R (FN2) and well... am a partner in a workshop. Another story but lets remain focused on the Vezel Hybrid.

    Equipped with the 7-speed I-DCD (Dual-Clutch and DC motor encased within one unit), and having tested many VW DSGs over the course of a few years, I can say based on very preliminary testing of the system, it works beautifully. There is totally an absence of judder, which is prevalent in early VW 7-DSG drives prior to the recalls, mainly because of the DC motor which powers the car from standstill before the petrol engine kicks in above 15km/h with a distinguishable but slight vibration on load. In fact, most of the time I just simply let the car run on EV mode, which is where the electric motor takes over 100% of the propulsion, to move the car out of the carpark in total silence. An added bonus is the electric Aircon compressor, giving you cool air purely on battery power without the petrol engine kicking in.

    On the move, the Hybrid can cruise at 40-50km/h on battery power EV-mode given the right circumstances, owing to battery charge and how you feather the throttle. Having driven a Toyota Camry Hybrid extensively in Australia over 4500km, I can say that our Honda i-DCD is less aggressive in terms of straining the electrical system as compared to the Toyota's HSD. There is no dedicated EV-mode button, and the petrol engine kicks in once u dab the throttle a wee bit more. On average, I could achieve 18km/l on 70% city and 30% expressway drive, with the engine mileage only at 250km. Hopefully it increases after the first few engine oil change.

    Here's where it goes downhill.�

    The Vezel comes equipped with a Torsion Beam setup. If you are aware of the limitations of this setup, you would know this is a cost-saving feature for compact cars or sport hatchbacks that use this lifehack to achieve lightness and stiffness, with the advantage of cheaper manufacturing. Case in point my beloved FN2R and the Renault Megane RS.�

    However, on a tall car such as the Vezel, it is curiously uncomfortable. I'd be honest with you guys, I'd expect a much better comfort level from a new 2014 make, much more from Honda which is famous for putting the brilliant double wishbone/multi-link setup on the Accord CL7 and subsequent Accords. Going over average roads, while a comparable CUV with independent rear suspension (CX-3/5, Forester) will soak up the bumps fairly adequately, the Vezel sways left and right in a stiff way owing to how the Torsion Beam works. It is fine on the smaller Honda Jazz/Fits but not so on the higher CG Vezels. The ride is unsettled, uncomfortable and frankly, disappointing.�

    Happily, with a stiff suspension setup, the handling is superb for any SUV in its class (except for the Subarus). The car handled most high speed corners adequately, with the 17" Dunlop Sport Maxx 050 barely stressed in any of such situations. Trust me, I did cornering at 80 km/h and body roll was very well tamed and the car revealed flashes of the excellent Fit GK chassis its based on.�

    But, we don't buy our Vezels to corner fast, we buy them as a sensible family car. I hope that maybe its only my Hybrid that has this stiff ride issue due to the heavy battery pack at the back, and Honda had to put either stiffer shock-absorbers and springs to tame the extra heft.

    attachicon.gifVezel Hybrid Review (1).jpg

    In closing, I'm excited for this new Honda platform which has a lot of potential. I will do a short-mid-long term review of this vehicle as the most important aspect most Bros here are interested in will be the dual-clutch gearbox reliability, handling and of course, fuel consumption of the Hybrid.

    Do share with me your thoughts and enjoy Vezeling!

    An excellent and very detailed review bro!�

    Now we know some technical details about the suspension of both the petrol & hybrid models

    Appreciate the thorough explanation too.

    Hi All,

    First up congrats on Vezel new owners, it is a nice looking car indeed.

    I am considering the Vezel so would like to check with you guys if you have experience both the hybrid and the S series?

    I have test driven the S series and the review is that it drags at the low end (weak pickup) but performs better at mid range and above. We suspect this is due to the HP so might want to consider the 150 BHP Hybrid for a better drive. However we do not have a chance to test drive the hybrid so is wondering if anyone has any advise on this?

    Also my PI is offering customized leather seats, in car cam with recording, 4 sides sensors, kenwood stereos (bluetooth and USB) + all the other usual stock items for S series at 125k guaranteed COE. Wonder if this is ok?

    I am now considering between Vezel S, Vezel Hybrid, Harrier and CRV. I know they are very different cars with different pricing but just want to get bang for the buck as much as possible.

    Thanks.

    Haha no problem treating you to kopi. As long as not atas hipster cafe kind :)

    Am in Potong Pasir leh.

    This weekend I parked next to another black Vezel at my mum-in-law's place in Jurong West extension :) Wondering if the driver is here too?

    I was fetching my niece and nephew from their mother's place at Jurong West last weekend =D

    Of all the good things with my lady, I must say that she does not have many pockets for me to keep small things that I may need now and then (like parking coupon).

    Perhaps my good brothers and sisters could share their creative ways to store things in their vezels.

    Let me start this sharing.

    I chanced upon this interesting product when I was browsing Qoo10.

    Niltrams, thank you for your review. I am getting the Hybrid Z and your review is very helpfull and informative.

    I am so happy for all of you bros�who have collected your new "ladies" and feeling jealous at the same time :)

    Booked mine in October2014 and still waiting. PI said COE already gotten, just waiting for shipment.

    Any bros have contacts for workshops that can order and install body kits for Vezel?

    Any Idea how much�it'll cost?�

    Am�thinking of getting it done before going for the Paint protection. Appreciate any recommendations.

    Happy New Year y'all!

    Bro..I am currently driving a CRV. I had also tried the harrier before and both are comparable. A bit hard to compare both Vezel hybrid and S to these two because you can feel the power difference rather easily when on full load (5 adults). So depends on what you want. Personally feel the CRV now too pricey. CRV more thirsty than the new harrier by the way. Vezel wins both hands down in this. If you want power, Vezel other variants just barely make it but hybrid is acceptable imho, though still feel less torquey than CRV despite being lighter.

    Which model did you get?�

    How long did it take for them to deliver the car? Ready stock?

    Yeah. Got the 1.5X for about 3 weeks already.

    Though my humble '07 Jazz had served me well, definitely enjoying my current ride now.

    �wow bro, dying to test both X/S & Hybrid. Looking at a trade-in. Wife pregnant so need a more utilitarian car that sips petrol.

    Am Driving a CU2 now. But dealers offering crappy trade-in. Paper already 94k. they give me at most 10k for body. That's like murder.

    If anyone who is as kind as Niltrams is willing to meet up for kopi and let me sit in your X/S Vezel, kopi on the house!

    I'm on the edge of trading my CU2 in for Vezel. Staying in the west, minutes walk away from West Coast Market.

    PM me!! and we can exchange contact and meet for a joyride. The more i read the threads more i buey tahan..haha

    Bro..I am currently driving a CRV. I had also tried the harrier before and both are comparable. A bit hard to compare both Vezel hybrid and S to these two because you can feel the power difference rather easily when on full load (5 adults). So depends on what you want. Personally feel the CRV now too pricey. CRV more thirsty than the new harrier by the way. Vezel wins both hands down in this. If you want power, Vezel other variants just barely make it but hybrid is acceptable imho, though still feel less torquey than CRV despite being lighter.

    Thanks for the feedback bro.

    Yes sort of decided against the CRV due to it being a guzzler.

    It is now between Harrier or Vezel, but i have always wanted a HONDA.

    Actually Hybrid even though at 10k up is considered reasonable because the 10k is just to cover for the COE. You are getting an arguably superior car at cheaper the price (if COE is taken out of the equation), any thoughts on that?

    SHould be able to get cheaper than this then at some of the smaller insurers because i believe NTUC premium is on the high side?

    Actually the price $885 is the same as i got from NTUC (as well) for my X model, as there were not many vezel on the road last OCt

    maybe more companies are offering now, but still the price is competitive for a new model car. My broker friend had another company quoted $1000 for the car,

    �wow bro, dying to test both X/S & Hybrid. Looking at a trade-in. Wife pregnant so need a more utilitarian car that sips petrol.

    Am Driving a CU2 now. But dealers offering crappy trade-in. Paper already 94k. they give me at most 10k for body. That's like murder.


    sexy

    Few month back VW AD offer me $2K above paper value for my previous car.

    Just sharing for those considering to get Hybrid version.

    Buying is one thing, maintaining is another. According to my regular work shop, there are not many ppl able to repair hybrid car in Singapore. Naturally the cost of repair will be higher.

    We are buying from PI and this is the thing we need to take note.

    Consider again, the FC of normal petrol�and Hybrid does not make huge diff. I know, the gear knob very chio....lol

    If its from AD, I will go for hybrid. Furthermore I always have the notion honda hybrid is not the full hybrid. Not an expert in this though. Furthermore, issues on battery warranty etc. The battery itself is a few k if really need replacement. And also resale value of hybrid...if I really go for hybrid, I would go for toyota's at this juncture. In fact I am considering between hybrid and diesel before I come across Vezel. If you have that extra cash then choose the ride you love. Vezel hybrid interior is really nice though.

    Yeah need to ask properly on the warranty. I'm inclined towards hybrid because of its higher power not so much other things. If S has a version with hybrid specs I'll sure go for it. I'm also a little worried about hybrid in terms of maintenance.

    Gotta beware of the small prints from smaller insurer where there may have many red-tapes when doing the claim. For me, I prefer to go for some established one whom I have experience & trust.

    Another thing to look at is the "Excess". Meaning below certain amount of repair you have to bear & anything above that amount then the insurrance company will pay. The lower the premium, the higher will be that amount.

    Example if your claim is $1,200 & your "Excess" is $1,000, then you still gotta pay $1k while your insurance company will pay $200. Lkewise if your claim is below $1k, then you shall pay everything & the insurance company shall pay none.

    Ultimately, good things don really come cheap. We have to ask & clarify whatever doubts & finally�to consider the balance within each of our mind, which is individual.

    True bro. 21 more bhp may sound tempting especially if you feel that you are paying extra for the COE part only and the car's omv being about 3-4k higher than the non hybrid. However, on paper the FC is 24plus km/l...it is like not too far off from the 20km/l of the non hybrid. Compared to corolla fielder hybrid which is like 33km/l....many are predicting a drop in COE after cny...which both new and resale will see price reduction...but again who knows. If it is so easy to predict the trend of COE just based on car deregistration numbers, everyone huat liao.

    I am pretty keen on the Vezel Hybrid X/Z. Seems like it is priced at $146k plus. For this price, the Mercs A-class A180 (style) is also within this price bracket. Any thoughts? What else should i consider besides the purchase price of the cars? Anyone can tell me the servicing price for the A-class? FYI, i am currently a 2007 Jazz owner...

    Thanks for your advice everyone!

    Hi Andyngps, I have been driving Honda Civic Hybrid, bought from AD, for 8 years now. Personally i think Honda have been making hybrid cars for many years now and the technology is quite stable. But of course there no 100% guarantee there won't be any problems. The main hybrid battery should last for around 10 years and even AD will not guarantee this, at most only 3 years.

    Resale value of Hybrid is if not the same, its a bit better than non-hybrid model. Thats why I am still going for the Z-hydrid model. The FC is the main factor for me, and of course the sweet look of the Vezel :)

    Merc very different already how to compare? Conti totally different drive has its own issues, people say you need to be willing to pay if u want to drive conti, you pay for the style in a way. Jap is well, a jap car. You drove Jazz you should know.

    If you want different since you had a Jazz maybe you should go Merc.

    Hi All,

    I just want to share my FC with all here. It has just consumed�its very first half of a�tank of petrol since collecting the Vezel last Sat. I pumped full tank, zeroed the meter and now it shows�351km. If I remember correctly, full tank is 40 litres. As such the FC should be�around 17km/l. I have been kind of expecting this because I mostly, 80%, travel on the express way. My min mileage per day is 90km, traveling from east�side of PIE to AYE to Jurong Island. I also did not turn on or off any functions that come with it. Just warm up the�car and start to drive.

    btw, I am not the driver (sorry, no driving license yet), my wife is the one who is driving this beauty around. Same story with many bros here. Short listed mazda 3, ...............and eventually love at first sight.

    Hope this information help.��


    Brothers can i get some advise, which credit card gives more petrol savings/discount

    if I am not wrong, POSB everyday card for SPC, 15% discount.

    anyone experience using the foam tyre repair kit, the same one that is provided in the Vezel? have watched the video on how to use it but not sure what happens to the tyre after that. anyone can share their knowledge or experience?�

    during my drive to KL back in Nov, had my fingers (and toes) crossed that i don't get a flat, didn't want to scare the wife and children by talking about it! thank goodness for the safe & incident-free drive back!

    however, will have to make another trip up north soon, so glad if anyone have advice to share. TIA

    My understanding from someone who have used it before is that we will use the 12V pump supplied to inject a chemical provided in the repair kit. The chemical will spread within the tyre and seal any openings present, so assuming there is a nail with hissing sound, it will cover up the gap surrounding the nail to stop air leakage.

    Then, you will go to your repair shop and remove the nail and patch the damage. However, I understand with this chemical injected, it will take effort to remove the nail.

    Hope my understanding is accurate.� [grin]

    Many other factors that goes into the consideration for the premium difference. Age, driving experience, occupation etc...

    I managed to get $7xx for my client with 50% NCD. ANY Workshop. [thumbsup]


    Same for me

    booked in Oct 2014 and secured COE in Dec 2nd bidding, now in the queue�waiting for emission test with appointment end Jan 2015 and then again need to queue and wait another 2 weeks for Vitas testing.�SE shown documentation proof, so estimate collection after CNY.

    All this WAITING is non-value and low�Productivity FOR THE CUSTOMER.

    2 Weeks for Vitas is an understatement. lol. Just for your info.�

    Quoted NTUC 0% NCD $600 Excess $2600.

    By the way, if I was involve in a accident as a unnamed driver, does it affect my premium this time round?� [rolleyes]

    Hey bro am travelling the same distance and direction as you,

    Last few months my half tank max is 440km and my FC is btw 17.6 to 19km/l thanks to the school hols -less traffic and jams\\

    since 2015 started my best half tank has been 400km and FC 16.8-17.2km/l with many jams and more cars on the roads lol

    Just go to aviva online to get an immediate quote. When I was doing it for my wife for Vezel, hers is about 1.5k with no ncd at and 1000 excess. But it depends on your number of years of driving.

    Hi Mygdi. [wave]�� Nice of you to wave back..� [thumbsup]

    If you stay around that area, perhaps we can meet up for coffee some day?� [:)]


    Hi, mine does. According to my PI, a number of customers request so they somehow wired the side view mirrors to auto close when I lock the car.

    Hi, does such modification affect the function of the original button controlling the side mirror or is that button still functional?

    Can share where did you got that modified?

    Thanks bro.� [:)]

    Was really confuse about the idling on/off, coz sometimes it is activated but sometimes not.... Finally managed to figure that out...though not sure if this is correct... Just to share with all vezel owners :
    Idling on/off will not be activated if :
    1. The idling on/off button is pressed (of course)
    2. If you Aircon is set to "lo"
    3. If you are in a slope
    4. If your seat belt is not worn

    Btw, anyone knows for the first servicing , should we do at 1000km or 5000km?

    Thanks bro.� [:)]

    Hi, I can still use the function normally and still open or close the side mirrors as and when I deem fit. Don't think it affects usual operation leh. And I didn't modify it myself. When I collected the car it was already that way. Paiseh but I can ask my PI for you. Let you know again.�
