Sekoyen’s

Naza Bestari 1.4L (previously codenamed NX-02) has been launched today by Deputy Prime Minister, Dato Seri Najib Tun Razak, in Kuala Lumpur.

 

 

As my post yesterday, the model is a rebadge of Peugeot 206. All the internal and external is the same as current Peugeot 206. Peugeot 206 had been imported into the country since 2000 (It’s been 8 years since the 206 was originally introduced and there is already the 207), but the specification is slightly diferrent where, that model were using ZF 4-speed automatic transmission. Naza Bestari is using a tiptronic transmission, which is based on the current model specification. This electronically controlled “automatic auto adaptive” gearbox which was developed by Porsche has four speeds and electronic control of gearshift functions.

The engine, TU3 JP is an aluminium engine with multipoint fuel injection (Magneti-Marelli) capable develops 75 ps at 5500 rpm with peak torque of 122 Nm at 2800 rpm.

Other than that, I think, only the badge is different… no more lion. See the different between Naza Bestari(top) and Peugeot 206(bottom), in this picture.

Priced at RM 68,888 include insurance, I still think it is expensive.
