Why Malaysians LOVE Boring Cars!! | BTB Another Mile x Careta Podcast

[@Riku7okester]

Hazeri nie klau ckp mmg direct dan jujur aje… and he give his opinion based on his experience more than 20 years… so it’s good to hear… 😇

[@bythebillionsmy]

Ya, setuju sangat. Saya pun seronok berbincang dengan dia - it's really good to speak with an industry expert who has seen almost every corner of the Malaysian automotive industry. Let us know if you have any suggestions on what kind of topics you'd like to see next! Thank you for watching our video. 😁

[@lbcck2527]

We love boring cars because we know how to and practise prioritization 1. We just want to get from point A to point B, safely and comfortably 2. Make money 3. Safe time Therefore we want 4. Reliability 5. Low maintenance, 6. Easy & cheap to repair, 7. Low running cost 8. Low upfront cost

[@bythebillionsmy]

Well said, and we appreciate you summarizing the key points in the video! At the end of the day, our wallets remain to be one of the main decision-makers in our purchasing ability. Keeping the costs low are very important due to the rising costs of everything else around us. At the end of the day, both a Ferrari and a Axia Rahmah will be stuck crawling on Federal Highway at 5:30pm. :)

@@bythebillionsmy I no longer drive much in KL and/or Klang valley 😀. There is KTM, Monorail, LRT, MRT then Grab (ride hailing). Balik Kampung, then I drive.

[@bythebillionsmy]

@@lbcck2527 We encourage more people to take advantage of our public transportation system! I often utilize the MRT and LRT as well, but due to the nature of our work sometimes need to drive here and there as not everywhere in KL is accessible by public transport. Sometimes the destination is right across the LRT station, but there is a highway in between and no way to cross it! Still have to take a 10-min Grab ride (or walk 25 mins around) when a simple pedestrian bridge can solve this issue in < 5 mins. Thank you for watching our video by the way, and let us know what you'll love to see next!

cars not your thing so thats what it is, in the end money spend elsewhere and end up no savings too lol

Mohon MAAF ya...mgkin sofa Tu blh adjust sedikit angle towards each other supaya kepala Tu X perlu menoleh byk sangat ya😁

[@bythebillionsmy]

Baik terima kasih atas nasihat yang tuan berikan, insyallah kami akan tambah baik untuk podcast2 akan dtg🫡🫡

[@RSGarage-ki5nn]

Betul tu. Lenguh jugak kepala tu

[@bythebillionsmy]

@@RSGarage-ki5nn Haha, selepas rakaman episod ni ada jugalah rasa macam nak pergi urut leher sekejap 😂 Terima kasih turun padang tonton video kami ya, kalau ada apa2 isu semasa/otomotif yang ingin diketengahkan, boleh berikan cadangan 😁

[@cats265]

Setuju, rakyat suka pilih what works best for them, beater car, asal boleh jalan, tapi sekali sekala Perodua or Proton kenalah hasilkan kereta yang fun, macam RWD+Manual Sedan/Hatch/+ dengan harga "mesra rakyat", itu fun tu!, satu kereta yang boleh buka "entry zone" sukan permotoran seret kepada golongan mampu tengok macam aku, we also need a beater car for fun. Do you agree?

[@amirulhakimi1045]

setuju tuan, saya pun minat jugak, tapi selalu nya mampu tengok dulu hahah

[@bythebillionsmy]

@@amirulhakimi1045 Impian itu adalah percuma, semoga abang dapat mencapai hasrat untuk memiliki kereta idaman nanti 😁

[@bythebillionsmy]

I agree with you 100%! Kalaulah Proton keluarkan balik segmen "hot hatch" seperti Satria Neo, pasti akan ada sambutan. Tak perlu buat mewah2 pun. Buat "spec kompang" dengan rim besi, unpainted bumpers, 6-speed manual, no infotainment system pun takpe. Sebab buyers akan terus tukar sport rim, pasang Android player, tukar bodyparts semua. Yang penting puas! 😁

[@suhaimikamaruddin5660]

S70 with Getrag manual gear, and Proton ride and handling perhaps?

[@hann2746]

Enjoy your channel….keep it up!! Please discuss about road safety which is obviously lacking right now. Examples:- 1. Motorcycles on highway 2. Motorcycles jumping traffic lights 3. Heavy vehicles way above 80/90 kmh 4. Heavy vehicles driving on overtaking lanes 5. And many more…. One thing for sure, authorities are closing not one but both eyes

[@bythebillionsmy]

Thank you and we will be sure to address many more key points in the future! The heavy vehicles part is a very serious issue and I do find myself feeling nervous around them nowadays, especially after the recent incident in Penang. By the way, we do have a podcast with Lando Zawawi of Brotherhood Malaysia where we touched on a few issues surrounding motorcycle activity - feel free to check it out! 😁kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4K2iaSKmZ5giNU

[@Roti_Gardenia]

Setuju!. But tambah lagi satu, lane hogging

[@kamalmusa7139]

Kalau nak grab kereta honda n vios pilihlah grab plus. Ini nak jimat booked just grab memang Bezza n Saga je la dapat. Beza 5-6 ringgit je, dpt 4-6 airbag, extra safety bos.

[@bythebillionsmy]

Bagi saya, naik Grab biasa saja, sebab selalunya kalau perlu naik Grab sebab malas nak harung jam/parking di kota raya. Risiko sangat kurang sebab merangkak di jalan raya, haha. Dari segi kos, kalau pergi sorang naik LRT/MRT saja, kalau 2 atau lebih orang berbaloi naik Grab. Selalunya, yang selalu bayar lebih untuk naik Grab Plus, Premium, etc. sebab boleh "claim" dari syarikat atas penggunaan kerja.

[@shazwan-e5q]

Great episode. Keep it up!

[@bythebillionsmy]

Thank you! Let us know what other topics you'd like us to discuss in the future. 😁

[@muhdalim7268]

Pendapat hazeri mmg sy sngt setuju

[@bythebillionsmy]

Nak dengar lagi tak pendapat abg Hezeri?

[@carljuan]

Glad you guys talk about safety belts

[@bythebillionsmy]

Definitely, and we are quite perplexed that this is something that most cars have nowadays, and yet, there are still people who willingly do not use it. It came with the car. Wear it! And thank you so much for watching and supporting our channel yea. Stay tuned for more! 😁

[@faisalfadzil9883]

Sebagai consumer, Malaysians, i rasa kita worth to enjoy cheap and cheerful cars, practical with some motorsport influences. Macam satria GTI dulu. Or maybe rebadge GR Yaris jadi produa PR Yaris? Maybe?

[@bythebillionsmy]

Impian itu percuma.. haha! Kalau dapat GR Copen rebadged jadi Perodua convertible pun best. Kalau dapat Ativa 4WD pun dah cukup dah untuk geng2 camping dan outdoors ni! 😁 Terima kasih banyak2 sudi tonton video kami, kalau ada cadangan untuk konten akan datang, boleh beritahu kami juga.

[@kx1ml837]

the main thing is cost since everythings getting expensive, most people wanted cheap cars with cheap maintenance, meaning it would be those "boring cars" that would egt them from point A to point B, cheaply. Not to mention the road tax, which depends on engine displacement which is why theres barely any engine over 2 litres costed about 400ringgit here, not to mention the insurance plus tax. secondly, its usually "guna sampai tak boleh guna". peoples usually just bought used cars more than any new cars because the reliability showed that its really good. no matter how broken a car is, as long as it moves, its good - everthing else is second. yes there was some good fun cars just like proton putra or satria gti, or satria neo, but didnt sell really well, not because peoples doesnt want it, but because people couldnt afford it. hell, even large suvs here couldnt even outsell it since costs is the priority. talking about EVs, some people would buy it, bust most peoples dont, because evs are still new like they said. plus, the cost and just imagine the electric bills when you charge the EVs at home, espacially when the cost would jump higher after you reach the amount

[@bythebillionsmy]

You are absolutely right, as a Malaysian, generally cost is the ultimate factor. It doesn't matter what you like, what you want, or what you need - it's what you can actually afford! At the end of the day, car enthusiasts still represent a small percentage of the population and automakers will still only bring in the models that will sell best in our market. Thank you for watching our video - and let us know what other topics you'd like us to discuss next! 😁

[@kx1ml837]

another thing to mention, it was easier to get jpj to approve good mods to the car, espacially engine swaps to a bigger one or a drivetrain swap from fwd to awd or rwd. nowadays, theres barely any change that are legal, except ricer mods or just straight up an exhaust that would make people ears bleed rather than eargasm. its all comes to *bribing* (rasuah) problem. just imagine, whats the highest salary for being the highest ranking in JPJ? it didnt even reach 10k ringgit. despite us having policemans, jpj workers and some, the bribing problem is still a major serious problem. this just shows that money can be a good thing but can also corrupt everything, even power forgot to say, keep the video up, my man. we really need enthusiasts to rise up again just so we can finally get the money, fun and safety finally balanced well!

[@t0kn3k]

public transport tak meluas luar kawasan KL....mcm penang lebuh raya sesak dari exit bandar cassia hingga ke tol sungai dua.... penyelesaian dia upgrade hiway....patutnya buat LRT diseberang perai - sungai petani...

[@bythebillionsmy]

Saya pun berharap kawasan Utara menerima perkhidmatan LRT/MRT, kalau tak sampai ke Kulim/SP, sekurang-kurangnya dari mainland ke seberang dan di seluruh Pulau Pinang. Ada juga alternatif untuk yang tak mahu naik kereta. Kalau ada alternatif orang akan guna. Tapi tiada.

[@t0kn3k]

@bythebillionsmy ya betul....

[@frankgiman4438]

Salam bang dari Sarawak, boleh bahaskan tak manfaat enjin CC kecil atau besar untuk sesebuah kenderaan dan kelemahan cc kecil ni. Seperti kita tahu dunia automotif sekarang berlumba untuk menghasilkan kenderaan yang paling efficient CC kecil salah satu alternative dengan output yg power. Tapi dari segi peminat kereta yang beprestasi tinggi adakah enjin seperti v8, v12 dan w16 ini akan pupus? 😢 dan kenapa di malaysia ni kurang kenderaan sedan or wagon yang mengunakan enjin disel? Bukan kah enjin disel ni lebih menjimatkan berbanding petrol untuk perjalanan jauh(betulkan kalau pendapat saya ni salah) kenapa Malaysia kurang bawa kenderaan seperti itu di sini. Dan untuk kenderaan EV ni saya rasa kita sini belum bersedia tetapi kalau kenderaan mildhybrid atau hybrid saya rasa sesuai di Malaysia dan boleh tolong bahaskan juga untuk segment mildhybrid dan hybrid ni sebab aku dengan toyota hilux nanti akan mengunakan sistem mildhybrid 48volt kalau tak silap. Btw saya suka topik2 yg dibahaskan. 🫡👌🏻

[@bythebillionsmy]

Salam dari semenanjung, terima kasih banyak2 atas topik2 cadangan tuan. Kami pun minat mendalami topik2 sebegini, dan kami akan buat selidik sedikit untuk diperbahaskan pada masa yang akan datang. 😁 Terima kasih sudi menonton rancangan kami dan minta subscribe di akaun2 kami yang lain (Instagram, Facebook) juga. Channel tuan juga cukup menarik, saya sendiri pengguna Land Cruiser (sama juga tuan Hezeri) dan kesemuanya dibeli di Sarawak. 😁

[@achekholbeckal889]

Ada kah model kereta dari Perodua dan Proton yang “ can talk to you “ macam Hezri kata kan, instead of continental cars yang kita tahu maintenance nya tinggi bukan sebab barang tapi kalau kita masuk workshop bawak kereta conti lain charge dan perception nya😅

[@bythebillionsmy]

(Pendapat peribadi) Sebenarnya ada saja tuan, pada saya Satria GTi, Putra dan Wira C99 sewaktu zaman kerjasama Proton-MMC. Kalau pernah memandu model2 ini, memang tentu akan rasa kereta itu berkomunisasi dengan tindak balas pemandu yang kacak lagi segak menyusur di jalan raya. Kereta conti juga ada yang maintenancenya murah, spare parts murah dan senang dicari. Itulah dia Mercedes. Kedua-dua saya dan Hezeri memandu model Mercedes juga dan harganya sangat berpatutan. 😁

[@hansman9762]

If malaysia government tax on automobile and parts not over 200% sure we will see a lot different models on the road

[@TheZaman_]

200% is myth...the highest tax on vehicle is 145% for engine above 2.5L for CBU.. CKD car above 2.5L 115%. Most car sold in Malaysia less the 1.8L which has tax CBU 115%, CKD 85%

[@bythebillionsmy]

The taxation system is very limiting for sure. Basically, you have to be wealthy to afford and import the cars you wish to own that are not available locally. Those born in the 70s or 80s might be a bit more fortunate to enjoy (relatively) cheaper JDM cars in the 2000s when their price points went down due to a more relaxed import structure. Look at how cheap Japanese sports cars were during the era! Even if we are not talking about the brand-new cars here, wouldn't it be nice.. anyway, thank you for watching our podcast and let us know what you'll love to see more of in the next one! 😁

[@bythebillionsmy]

@@TheZaman_ Great explanation and well said! Thankfully, nowadays there are cars below 2.0L that can deliver similar or better performance than those with double their displacement (comparing current cars with those in the 90's-00's). Maintenance? That is another story! Thank you for watching our video and let us know what you'd like to see in the next one! 😁

[@penakluk_impian]

subtitle ..merapu meraban..haha

[@lansiman]

you mean we have the choice between myvi and mustang and yet we choose myvi because we love to? your gov decide your choice, be real

[@bythebillionsmy]

What you say is also true, purchasing decision nowadays is mostly borne out of necessity and what fits into our budget rather than what we actually want. This is why most people choose to just be happy with what they have (modifying Myvis etc) or exploring other hobby cars such as 4x4 or JDMs instead. Personally, I used to own Mustangs in the US (feel free to watch our other podcast for more info!) but did not want to bring it back because it was expensive to import, it guzzles a lot of fuel (5.0L V8) and the road tax will be expensive (RM11,130/year). At the end of the day, I do love and miss it but I am okay with driving other cars I like such as Land Cruisers haha. But yes, I wish the gov regulations will be more friendly towards car enthusiasts. Thank you for watching our podcast and let us know what you'd like to see next! 😁

[@lansiman]

@@bythebillionsmy yes, we did not decide the road tax and the import tax, gov decide and you make your decision base upon that, i'm understand this decision because we're only midtier in-term of nation productivity, but it's sad that most average Malaysian car enthusiasts would never had the chance to experience a proper high standards high capacity car probably until ICE car going extinct

[@waterbnb7204]

kalau compare ngan US keje 1 bulan dapat beli civic si coupe dlm marketplace, Malaysia kene keje setahun baru dpt civic dolfin b16 hahaha

[@bythebillionsmy]

Betul tu, sebab itu saya tak main Honda 🤣! Saya sendiri pernah alami sewaktu belajar di US dahulu. Boleh tengok podcast kami yang terdahulu (kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKabpquHmKiJZsU) untuk butiran lanjut tentang pengalaman membeli kereta di luar negara. Terima kasih sebab sokong channel kami bang, kalau ada apa2 topik lain untuk kami bincang, boleh ajukan di sini. 😁

Soalan perbezaan antara Thai and Malay,,tpi jawapan tentang Singapore😂😂

[@bythebillionsmy]

Biarlah menyeluruh.. 😂

[@guidobyfredo]

Malaysians also love boring motorbikes.

[@bythebillionsmy]

I supposed if you're not into superbikes, touring, or motocross, there really isn't much of a choice when it comes to what else is available to buy. At that point, it just becomes a Point A to Point B vehicle. Hopefully, all motorcyclists regardless of what bikes they ride will practice proper road safety manners and wear helmets. Thanks for watching our video and let us know if there are any interesting topics for us to cover next! 😁

sejak bila harga minyak ikut pendapatan rakyat di sesebuah negara? kerajaan yang tanggung harga minyak yang kita bayar, so memang patut kerajaan minta kredit/buka mata rakyat suruh bersyukur

[@mohamedalif1333]

Perodua Ativa is still a rebadge Toyota/Daihatsu

[@bythebillionsmy]

We only wish they also rebadged the 4WD version of the Daihatsu Rocky! There are many that prefer 4WD/AWD for SUVs and crossovers since it's more of a lifestyle car, and it can compete directly with those looking into buying a Subaru XT, for example.

[@thedivingbanjars5573]

y? coz gov tax brother😂😂😂😂😂.. everything is tax. next year pakai selipar jepun also got tax. no tax if u not using ur selipar . 😂😂😂😂 clow n wicker world...

[@bythebillionsmy]

Habis lah macam tu! 😅As for us, we only wish that the Classic Car Road Tax system applies to all cars now. It does not extend to classic 4x4 vehicles. We are still paying almost RM2,000/year in road taxes for each classic 4x4 that we own! 😭 Thank you for watching our video - let us know if kalau ada apa lagi topik2 best for us to discuss in the future!

kalu boring tgk kete lain sama mcm kete kita so jgn beli yg majoriti org kat malaysia nie beli .... beli laa brand dr perancis ke.... itali ke.... india ke.... dan jgk jgn beli dr china sbb skrg dah berlambak org lain beli.... kalu boleh beli yg limited edition yg hanya ada bbrp aje kat dunia...baru tak boring.... nie sembang kot** namanya

[@bythebillionsmy]

Maksud "boring" dalam konteks ini adalah lebih kepada kereta yang kureng dari segi kepuasan dan pengalaman dalam pemanduannya. Cuma nak bandingkan kenapa di luar negara lebih banyak pilihan kereta baru yang menarik dari apa yang kami dapat di tanah air ini. Terima kasih banyak2 bang kerana sudi menonton video kami, boleh beri cadangan untuk topik apa yang kami boleh sembang untuk konten yang akan datang. 😁
