Ask Nazman: Naza Ria

Question From: Wendy via email

I got your email from your blog. I am looking for a decent MPV as a family car. I am interested in Naza Ria but saw a lot of comments from various forums. Before I get myself the car, i would like to know more about this car. From your blog, I knew that you know a lot about Naza/Kia, perhaps, you also know well about this vehicle and able to give me 'non-bias' comments, particularly regarding the engine, fuel optimiser & other maintenance.
1. engine overhaul issue - Is this problem resolved?
2. Fuel consumption - some reported a real bad FC, like >40sen per KM. I believe those may be exceptional case. What is the range of FC for urban drive? And, do you recommend any fuel optimization?
3. Each car have different characteristic. How to keep this car in the tip top condition, besides on schedule service?

Nazman answers:

1.Until curent time from 2007 no complaint about engine overheating, i got this information from Naza SC. Maybe the Naza will improved the engine for Naza Ria.
2.Based on many who drive Ria, it consumes only RM0.25-0.30 per km at current petrol price, where it consumes a bit higher on urban drive. It was ~40 cents/km when petrol was RM2.70.
3.Nothing special. Every two week check the coolant at spare tank, battery water, engine oil and services while schedule.
