Nissan Asia Utility Project (AUV)

Post by Sithlord »

Kawan 2, saya memutuskan untuk membuka thread baru ini yang mirip yang dulu. Soalnya yang dulu agak contaminated, jadi saya harap yang ini akan mulai dari baru. A fresh new start.

Also note I decided to rename AUV the Asia, not Asean utility vehicle. Cause believe me or not, this car will have a wider georaphical reach than just Asean. Mr. Conan is a non-believer of this thinking, but lets see.

Also to start of this thread, here is just a little news update. Nothing new, but at least it conformed that meskipun BBM naik, ppnbm terancam naik etc, proyek ini terus jalan. Tidak akan batal, dan akan tiba di tahun 2007 as scheduled.

Feels like a long time. Tapi ya asal hasilnya bagus, ya tunggu dengan sabar lah ! Dari pada buru buru nanti hasilnya cuman basa basi, juga percuma.

Nissan Set to Go Ahead With Auv Project in Indonesia
JAKARTA, Dec 8 Asia Pulse - PT Nissan Motor Indonesia (NMI) said it will not review its plan to produce the Asean Utility Vehicle (AUV) in the country despite the downturn in the domestic market.

Sales and Marketing Director of NMI Teddy Irawan said the company hopes to produce a new model of Multipurpose Vehicle (MPV) in 2007 with engine capacity of below 3,000 cc.

NMI has set aside US$40 million for the new model and to expand the plant's current annual production capacity of 24,000 units.

With the AUV project, the production capacity will be increased to 40,000 units a year.

(ANTARA)

Ternyata kapasitas NMI saat ini juga belum besar banget. No wonder it took so long ! Mereka harus meningkatkan kapasitas produksi dulu dari sekarang 24,000 ke 40,000 in 2007.

Dan keadaan sekarang, trendnya mobil di harga atas 250 juta makin sepi, mobil CBU IU saja dengar pasarnya lagi lesu banget, dan mobil murah lagi tumbuh meskipun jaman susah.

Mudah mudahan ini bisa bikin Nissan mempercepat kelahiran mobil ini. But of course saya sadar, bikin mobil bukan bikin kue tiramisu. Jika buru buru, nanti banyak quality problem, NOT GOOD !

1 more year. 365 days. Feels like forever. But hey, dulu tunggu kijang / Fortuner juga feels like that, and before we know it, they are already here !

Anyone got further news, pls put them here.

Oh. Here is another rare news snippet of this project. Yang ini lapornya lebih beda. This time they reported that this AUV will go to places as far away as South and Central America, as well as the Middle East. Also they use the word ASIA, not South East Asia or ASEAN.

Here is it, pls scroll down for the AUV section. Its in the Indonesia go nuclear in 2017 section.

http://www.greencarcongress.com/nuclear/

Ini bagian berita automotive AUV :

Quote :

" ...... The company is designing a global car for developing markets in Asia, the Middle East, and Central and South America that it plans to mass-produce in Indonesia and other plants in Asia. In partnership with a Indonesian firm, it is also expanding its local dealership network from the current 38 outlets to 60.... "

Bung liat2aja, my best guess is the AUV will launch in June / July 2007, biasa, saat Gaikindo !

Saat itu, SM pasti ramai lagi seperti tiap kali ada pameran mobil besar, apalagi kalau ada lahir mobil terjangkau.

Mr. Szli, jangan salah menginterpretasikan kata2ku dan kata2 Anda sendiri. Anda mengatakan AUV ini juga untuk pasar CHINA, bukan hanya ASIA. Dan China-lah yang menurutku tidak akan terjadi, BUKAN negara2 Asia lain yang lebih tertinggal daripada Asean seperti kawasan Asia Selatan.

Yang dimaksud dengan Asia itu 'kan bermacam2 :

Asia Timur yang kebanyakan negara2 maju : Japan, South Korea, HongKong, Taiwan dan sekarang the rapidly developing China.

Asean : Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Phillippines dll.

Asia Selatan seperti India, Sri Lanka.

Asia Barat dan Timur Tengah.

Let me make myself clear : Aku berpendapat bahwa seluas2nya pasar AUV, TIDAK AKAN MELEBIHI pasar IMV.
Jadi jika IMV dijual di Sri Lanka, maka ada kemungkinan AUV juga mengekor.
Tapi jika IMV tidak dijual di China, Japan, USA, Europe dan South Korea, maka AUV juga tidak akan dijual di negara2 tersebut!
NMI has set aside US$40 million for the new model and to expand the plant's current annual production capacity of 24,000 units.

With the AUV project, the production capacity will be increased to 40,000 units a year.
Dengan AUV, produksi akan mencapai 40.000. Jadi rencana produksi AUV = 16.000 unit setahun.

Jumlah ini, is a FAR CRY dibandingkan dengan IMV yang akan mencapai 500.000 unit setahun pada tahun 2006, dengan produksi di 4 negara. Tahun ini saja, IMV sudah diproduksi sebanyak :

280.000 unit setahun di Thailand (Fortuner petrol, diesel dan Hilux Vigo variants)
80.000 unit setahun di Indonesia (Innova dari E sampai V 2.7L)
60000 unit setahun di Afrika Selatan dan Argentina (untuk pasar Amerika Selatan).
Ini belum menghitung output produksi Under-IMV yaitu Xenia/Avanza, yang outputnya sendiri sudah di atas rencana output AUV.

Dilihat dari sisi manapun, termasuk economics of scale, AUV tidak akan seefisien IMV. Not as efficient = not as affordable (=cheap).

Atas dasar semua di atas, aku berpendapat bahwa AUV tidak akan bisa mengungguli IMV atau bahkan salahsatunya saja yaitu Innova, baik generasi sekarang maupun generasi berikutnya, in terms of both sales and reputation.

The AUV is an Innova clone, a desperate move by NMI to steal a little piece of the IMV's market.

Dengan IMV, Toyota has secured its dominance in the Asean market. Tapi AUV tidak akan membuat Nissan menjadi the new king menggantikan Toyota.

Bagiku, AUV adalah langkah yang tidak perlu dari Nissan. Daripada turun level, lebih baik Nissan agresif memasarkan semua model2 Jepang-nya, agar brand image Nissan tetap terjaga eksklusif seperti sekarang. Aku yakin AUV yang harganya Rp 200 jutaan malah akan menggerogoti pasar model2 Nissan lainnya, seperti X-Trail dan Serena. Akibatnya, penjualan X-Trail dan Serena malah akan turun dan bukan tidak mungkin karena dengan adanya AUV, Serena C25 tidak akan pernah tiba di Indo.

Selain itu, pernyataan ini juga menunjukkan bahwa AUV tidak akan menjadi mobil irit seperti Avanza atau Suzuki APV yang bermesin hanya 1500cc :
Sales and Marketing Director of NMI Teddy Irawan said the company hopes to produce a new model of Multipurpose Vehicle (MPV) in 2007 with engine capacity of below 3,000 cc.
Bisa saja malah bermesin lebih besar dari Innova yang 2000 cc. Harga Innova V A/T saja sekarang sudah Rp 219 jutaan, dan NMI sudah mengatakan bahwa AUV akan sedikit lebih mahal daripada varian Innova yang setara, ditambah Mr. Szli yang ngotot bahwa AUV akan ada AIRBAG, di samping ABS, EBD, dan BA.
Berarti AUV A/T setara Innova V A/T could easily touch Rp 230-240 million.
LOH, bukankah sudah ada Serena?? Jadi buat apa ada AUV?

Belum lagi, mneghitung faktor inflasi dari akhir 2005 ini sampai tahun 2007. Pada saat itu Innova G saja mungkin sudah hampir menyentuh Rp 200 juta. AUV akan dihargai lebih daripada itu. So much for being 'the affordable Nissan below Rp 200 juta supaya DEPRESIASI KECIL menurut hukum Sithlord yang menyatakan bahwa mobil apapun di bawah Rp 200 juta harga bekasnya akan kuat" !

Tentang itu, darimana pula batasan angka Rp 200 juta? Analogi, berapa besar sih perbedaan kurs Dollar di Rp 9900 dengan Rp 10.100? Apakah lebih besar daripada perbedaan dari Rp 9700 ke 9900, atau Rp 10.100 ke 10.300?
Menghitung inflasi, nilai Rp 200 juta tahun ini sama saja dengan nilai Rp 150 juta pada tahun 1999 atau Rp 250 juta pada tahun 2008 nanti. Ingat waktu Xenia pertama kali diluncurkan, harga masih 'Rp 60-an juta' alias masih kepala enam, walaupun kepala enam besar? Sekarang, varian Xenia yang sama harganya sudah di atas Rp 80 juta alias kepala delapan.

That 'dark law' is rubbish. Depresiasi sebuah model bukan ditentukan hanya oleh apakah harganya di bawah level psikologis Rp 200 juta atau tidak, tapi dipengaruhi oleh kombinasi berbagai faktor seperti mutu, angka penjualan, reputasi, design, mesin dsb dsb.

So the question will remain : buat apa sih ada AUV? :e-naughty:

Your last question sebenarnya adalah akibat your stubborn attitude ! You just refused to believe that somebody may one day did something similar, or bigger than Toyota's IMV project.

If U open your mind and accept that Nissan is no longer the once broke, pitiful company, but a healthy profitable car company growing fast, THEN you will realize that as I said, everything fits together perfectly.

Thats the problem. Anda tidak mau baca berita yang saya sajikan dengan cermat. You forgot one thing : The AUV is NOT only built in Indonesia, but other Nissan factories in South America, Mexico, China, etc ARE also building !

I mean do U think only Toyota have factories around the world ? Do U think the AUV relies only on Indonesia to supply demand in many countries ?

Read once more the news from the nuclear article.

Siapa bilang Nissan secara resmi akui AUV stands for Asian Utility vehicle ? Thats the press guess and to keep it a secret, ya Nissan tinggal senyum dan diam saja.

I mean jika anda lihat tetangga anda yang sekarang sudah naik Mercy, beli TV plasma, dan anda terus ngotot, mana mungkin, kan dulu mereka miskin banget ! Naik Carry, rumahnya cuman satu tingkat yang bocor tiap hujan, ya anda tidak akan bisa ngerti. Life changes !

BUT, on the other hand, I am perfectly OK if U continue to underestimate this project. Cause when the launching day arrives, U will open your eyes and jaw so wide that your face will be frozen stiff for perhaps 1 hour !

As for the going to China thing, I won't say anymore. Asal yang ngerti sejarah saya dan sifat saya, orang yang benar ngerti saya akan sadar, when I say its going to China, its REALLY going to China ! No wild guesses ! People who understand me know what I am talking about !

Do U think Nissan spent US$40 million to upgrade their factory here, spend even more money in developing a new model, ALL only to attempt to steal innova's market yang CUMAN 80,000 per year ?

80,000 per year is PEANUTS compared to Nissan's current sales of MILLIONS of cars sold each year around the world ! Do U think Carlos will spend a lot of money just to achieve an extra growth of 80,000 per year ? Itupun Ghosn pasti sadar ngak mungkin bisa ambil pasar innova semuanya. Maybe as U guys said, sudah bisa 30,000-40,000 per year sudah bagus.

Let me say it again. By spreading the production of the AUV worldwide, THEN we are talking about growth of a new model in terms of a few hundreds of thousands worldwide ! A much meaningful figure !

Example. They say below 3000 cc. Ya 2000 cc wajar dong. U don't assume they will make a 2500 or 2700 cc like the Fortuner.

I used to be stubborn when I refused to face the clues U gave me about the c25. NOW, ironically, I already give many clues about the AUV, its YOUR turn to be stubborn to face it ! So it will be YOUR turn to repeat my mistake !

Nice talking to U though ! Without U, Star Wars will be boring ! But please, this is episode 7. U got to call me MASTER !

Anda salah, aku sudah menyukai brand Nissan bahkan sebelum Anda beli Serena. Tapi ini bukan tentang apakah Nissan bisa bangkit dsb, tapi aku mempertanyakan mengapa Nissan harus mengekor Toyota? Mengapa tidak seperti Honda, yang terus menjaga kualitas model2nya yang model global, dan tidak sampai membuat model lokal?
Your last question sebenarnya adalah akibat your stubborn attitude ! You just refused to believe that somebody may one day did something similar, or bigger than Toyota's IMV project.
Jangan salah juga. Aku sama sekali tidak suka dengan keberadaan IMV dari Toyota. Menurutku daripada membuat Innova, lebih baik masukkan Wish dan Noah/Voxy. Give people a choice instead of milking their money like cashcows with more Kijang variants!

Anda menyangka aku 'tidak rela' Nissan bisa mengikuti jejak Toyota? Well, guess again! Yang aku tidak rela justru adalah melihat Nissan mengikuti jejak Toyota!

Padahal Nissan sudah melakukan start yang bagus. Ingat ketika masih hanya ada Terrano sebagai satu2nya SUV Nissan? Mereka mau mengetes pasar dengan memasukkan X-Trail secara CBU, karena melihat hasil penjualan X-Trail oleh IU yang lumayan. Setelah yakin, X-Trail dirakit disini. Lalu mereka mulai agresif dengan model2 JDM mereka. Serena dimasukkan, bahkan Teana pun, yang harus masuk 'group neraka' bersama Accord dan Camry, tetap dimasukkan!

Sekarang, setelah maju pesat? Mereka tidak puas dan mulai tergiur dengan besarnya pasar Kijang.

What happened?

Sadarkah bahwa reputasi Nissan yang baik sekarang, adalah berkat model2 JDM mereka? Sadarkah bahwa ada orang yang beli X-Trail dan bukannya Fortuner, dan ada yg beli Serena daripada Innova, seperti Anda sendiri, karena mereka tidak suka brand Toyota yang terlalu sejuta umat? Karena mungkin mereka tidak suka Toyota yang begitu mendominasi pasar? Mungkin seseorang sebenarnya lebih suka RAV4, tapi karena tidak dijual TAM, maka dia memilih X-Trail and happy with it?

Justru hal2 inilah yang menyebabkan Nissan bisa bangkit di pasar2 terbesar seperti USA dan Jepang. Orang bosan beli Camry di USA, mereka coba beli Maxima. Orang bosan beli CRV di Jepang, mereka beli X-Trail.

Kini, Nissan malah akan menjadi seperti Toyota di Indo. IRONIS, padahal dulu Anda adalah orang nomor satu di forum ini yang bashing Kijang Kapsul! Bahkan aku sebagai seorang pemiliknya saja, setuju 100% dengan Anda! EH, kini Anda malah mendukung model yang meniru konsep Kijang, malah Anda mau menamakannya Komodo segala.

Hari ini, aku melihat brand Nissan sebagai brand yang fresh, yang identik dengan produk2 terbaru yang inovatif dan menarik. Sebagai alternatif yang tidak kalah dari Honda.

Setelah ada AUV nanti, Nissan akan sama saja seperti Toyota sekarang. Kalau bisa, setiap orang yang masuk ke showroom, beli AUV. Jadi, tidak perlu memajang model lain.

Apa bedanya dengan era Kijang dulu? Apa bedanya dengan era Innova sekarang? Anda selalu berteriak2 bahwa Anda baru akan beli produk TAM kalau mereka mau rakit Noah/Voxy atau Alphard disini. Sadarkah Anda bahwa alasan mereka tidak mau melakukan hal itu adalah karena mereka mau menjual Innova sebanyak2nya?

Sadarkah Anda bahwa dengan adanya AUV nanti, hilanglah juga kesempatan mereka akan merakit Elgrand disini?

Karena, mereka mengatakan ini :
Example. They say below 3000 cc. Ya 2000 cc wajar dong. U don't assume they will make a 2500 or 2700 cc like the Fortuner.
Justru karena mereka ada rencana engine yg lebih besar, mungkin seperti Innova 2.7L. Good bye Elgrand 2.5L CKD!
Dan kalau AUV benar2 2000cc, mereka TIDAK akan mengatakan BELOW 3000 cc. Buat apa begitu jauh?? Mereka bisa katakan, TIDAK LEBIH dr 2000cc. Atau 2500cc, karena pajak lebih rendah di kelas 1500-2500 cc drpd di atas 2500 cc. Lalu mengapa mereka katakan BELOW 3000 CC??

Last but not least, aku bukannya 'tidak percaya' akan ada AUV. Oh, aku tahu tentang AUV sudah lama sekali dan AUV pasti lahir, walau ditunda2 terus. But I'm against its existence, karena hanya akan menggerogoti penjualan model2 Nissan yg lain, yang pada akhirnya akan semakin mengikis kemauan Nissan untuk memasarkan produk2 mereka yang lainnya yang lebih inovatif dan fresh!

Elgrand 2.5L CKD? Setelah ada AUV 'BELOW 3000 CC"?
DREAM ON!

Padahal sayang sekali 'kan, karena mesin 2.5L sudah dipakai di X-Trail, jadi after sales tidak perlu repot2 lagi. Dan dengan Elgrand generasi berikutnya yang sangat elegant (lihat di thread Nissan Amenio di section minibus/station), apalagi didukung ATPM, dengan harga CKD pula (berapa menurut Darl Lord?? Rp 350 juta?? Well, let's make it Rp 400 juta), pasti bisa menghentikan keperkasaan Toyota Alphard!
Diskusi internal NMI mengenai kemungkinan dirakitnya new Elgrand 2.5L ini, kalaupun ada, tentu sudah dihentikan begitu ada wacana varian flagship Komodo bermesin "below 3000 cc" yg akan dijual Rp 300 jutaan (estimated, Innova 2.7L saja sudah Rp 281 juta, tahun 2005 ini!)

It's a shame, really. :e-naughty:

And btw, the Dark Lord selalu mentertawakan 'Super Innova' 2.7L karena lebih baik membeli Serena HS saja. I agree completely. But I wonder what he's going to say about C25 HS vs 'Super Komodo below 3000 cc' pada tahun 2007 nanti.
Tapi mungkin ini pertarungan yang tidak akan terjadi, jika karena super Komodo ini, C25 dibatalkan masuk Indonesia.

If the AUV is stripped of safety features and uses a thin shell plate like the kijang, THEN my young skywalker, I will eat my words and agree with you !

BUT, here is the BIG BIG BUT, IF the AUV comes with 2 airbags, ABS etc, and also uses reasonably thick steel plates, uses the MR20DE engine, then whats the difference with a JDM Nissan ? Cuman beda bentuk, tapi mutu, mesin, safety semua setara ama JDM car.

Thats why I have more complaints about the innova, but I have nothing to complain about the Fortuner. Memang mesin Fortuner I suspect ngak se-refined mesin JDM Toyota, tapi considering the fact that she is now completely safety conscious, well, I can't complain too much, can I ?

Why the need for such a global car ? U see, as U know, Japanese market juga ada sifatnya sendiri yang beda ama pasar lain. Misalnya Japanese suka mobil mini, like Jazz, Vitz. Mereka juga suka minivan boxy like Serena and Stepwagon.

Nah ! Tapi pasar South America, China, Mexico, Malaysia, Singapore, Philipinnes etc, apakah semuanya suka minivan boxy ? Apakah suka mobil mini ala Vitz ? Belum tentu kan.

Thats why they need to come up with a special car to cater for other non-Japanese taste.

I am not double standard here. My main complaint about the innova bukan her existence, but just one main reason : How can U sell a car to Indonesian people without any regard for their safety, just because U know the Indonesian weakness for compromising their own safety just for a bit cheaper more ?

Apalagi innova sudah hampir 200 juta. Still completely devoid of any meaningful safety features. But enough of this. U get my point.

And if the AUV turns out to be like that too, I simply refuse to buy ! Simple ! My family's life cost more than just 10-20 juta difference !

And don't worry about the c25. She will arrive here sooner or later. Ghosn is an ambitious man. He will sell as many models as he can around the world, including Indonesia.

Justru nowadays people are wondering if Ghosn will stumble for launching and selling too many new models around the world too quickly !

To make this exercise interesting, guys, imagine U are now the CEO of Nissan Motor. U are one ambitious guy of course !

Now your volume is about half of Toyota's, but luckily, money is no longer a problem. U have a lot now, unlike 1999, and all debt have been settled.

Now what will U do to accelerate and try to grow faster ?

To prevent us arguing about the same thing again and again (nanti member lain bosan), why don't U use your detective skills and help me find out more about this new model ?

I will never recommend a car with minimum or ZERO safety features unless the guy really have no extra money. For all the accusations of being a Nissan maniac that I got, HAVE I EVER recommended the Terrano ?

But trust me. Once the AUV is here and as good as I thought, this old dinosaurus will slowly fade into the background !

Oh one more word for U jedi :

Luke, search your feelings, you know it to be true !

please CMIIW...

Selain pada jenis (SUV/MPV yang menentukan model), perbedaan antara Innova V dan Fortuner hanya pada Airbag...that's all... jadi apa cuman 2 buah airbag bisa membuat pandangan pak Sithlord akan 2 jenis mobil berbeda 180 derajat?? Kalau pendangan terhadap model jelas sesuatu yang subjektif yang semua orang pasti akan seperti itu, tapi terhadap safety feature apakah akan seperti itu juga??

bung datsu......soal safety, saya juga sependapat dgn pak sithlord....kalau anda sudah pernah merasakan kecelakaan lalulintas yang hampir merenggut nyawa anda, saya yakin anda akan sependapat dengan saya.......dahulu, sebelum saya mengalami kecelakaan di tol cipularang itu, saya juga sependapat dengan anda......sekarang cara berpikir saya mengenai safety feature sudah berubah.......safety feature adalah pertimbangan saya yang utama sebelum meminang mobil......dan safety feature itu ga cuma sepasang airbag.....masih banyak......c/o....body shell, seatbelt aktif, rem abs/ebd/ba, sandaran jok&kepala yang patah apabila ada benturan dari belakang, batang setir dan pedal yang patah bila terjadi benturan, jumlah batang baja di pintu yang ditambah, engine cut off untuk mengindari kebakaran di saat kecelakaan, pre safe, kontrol traksi dll.....

kalau anda sudah pernah mengalami kondisi darurat, dan safety feature itu benar2 bekerja, anda akan tahu, betapa pentingnya fitur2 itu....

OK. Sekarang saya akan compare 2 product Toyota, supaya saya ngak di tuduh adu ama Nissan. For me its clear, the Innova have all the tax advantages, yet gives little to consumers. Whereas the Fortuner is heavily handicapped by big tax punishments, yet she is fully loaded.

Let me start with the Fortuner. For one, she is CBU Thailand. So sudah kena pajak bea masuk. Terus mesin dia 2700 cc, and U know under the tax rules, anything bigger than 2500 cc pajaknya naik lagi ! Kalau ngak salah, Fortuner kena pajak 40% !

The Fortuner gives U 2 airbags, ABS, EBD, and I believe, thicker steel plates ! Also kalau ngak salah, sudah ada Catalytic converter, supaya udara kita semua lebih bersih.

Nah, lets examine the innova. She has all the advantages in her favour. She is a minibus 2000 cc, CKD local. So she DO NOT have to pay bea masuk. And her 2000 cc engine means her tax is only 10% ! Thats a whopping 30% difference compared to the Fortuner. Even if my tax numbers are wrong, selisihnya sudah jauh !

Now, for innova G A/T at now 193 juta, what do U get ? 4 wheels, a car body, 3 rows of seats, an engine without catalytic converter, what else ?

So if U try to remove all taxes, U will realize that the Fortuner is fairly valued, the innova is overvalued !

Man ! I treasure your life so much, kok anda sendiri tidak ? Its your life, not mine ! Pls have a look at the accident photo in Malaysia di forum Santai / relax ! Look at the blood ! Look at the girl beside who I think is dead, cause no airbag and the steel plates are so thin !

Ironically, Fortuner and innova are sisters, but why the big difference ? I tell U why ! Cause the Thai's daru dulu ngak mau di gituin ATPM. Thats why the Fortuner, born in Thailand, have to choice but to be more " serious ".

Whereas the innova is born in Indonesia, a place where ATPMs are faced with docile, un-demanding, forgiving, I-don't care-about-safety-as-long-as I-can-save-10-20-juta kind of mentality. Thats why the difference is so stark !

Go to Thailand and see the ratio of innovas and Fortuners sold there ! You will see that the Thais realize those 2 cars are as different as night and day !

Well, jika anda rela bayar 193 juta dan dapat mobil nyaris " kosong ", silahkan ! At least the Suzuki Swift guys pay only 166.5 juta and they got all the safety features ! Itu pun Swift juga kena pajak bea masuk dari Jepang !

Come on ! Do U REALLY feel a car with all the tax advantages like the innova selling for 193 juta gives U ONLY those stuff are fairly priced ? Are U serious ? And don't U even want something better, safer than that ?

193 juta ! Think about that ! SERATUS SEMBILAN PULUH TIGA JUTA Pak !

Well, got to remind myself though, ITS YOUR LIFE and your FAMILY's, NOT MINE ! Why should I care ? But again your Emperor loves his people !

Oh one more thing. Its a bit like insurance sebenernya. Biasanya orang pikir, Ah, saya sehat, ngapain beli asuransi !

Tapi saya lihat iklan di indovision, aiklan AIA. Iklannya bagus ! Satu ibu ama anaknya lagi nonton video saat dulu papa masih ada. Mereka menangis soalnya papa sudah tidak ada, dan rumah mereka kecil, soalnya uang di pakai untuk biaya hidup, papa si pencari uang sudah mati.

Satu iklan lagi, laki di kursi roda ama istrinya lihat mesin canggih di rumah sakit, tapi mereka sedih, soalnya tidak mampu bayar pakai mesin itu.

And the iklan ends with the words " You will get the money when U need it the most ! " if U buy their insurance.

So safety features in a car are much like insurance. They may seem useless and cost extra, BUT when U need it most, THEY are there to protect and serve U !

Especially for Dads yang pencari nafka untuk keluarga, the best thing U can do for your family today is to get insurance for your wife and kids, PLUS get yourself and them cars which are SAFER !

Beli baju murah ngak papa, tapi mobil kan urusan hidup dan mati ! Sudah berapa kali saya dengar celebrity di dunia ada berapa yang mati atau cacat gara gara car accident ! And someone says, U are MUCH more likely to get killed in a car accident than if U take a plane ride !

There rest then is up to God. As someone says " God helps those who HELPS themselves first ! "

U cannot say semua di tanggan tuhan, so ngapain beli asuransi dan mobil lebih aman. Life is NOT that simple.

Besok kalau saya mati, apakah anda mau biayai ongkos hidup istri saya dan anak saya ? God is there allright, but lets not be childish and leave EVERYTHING to HIM ! God creates car engineers and insurance salesmen to protect us. USE THEM !

Mr. Ween, Anda dan Mr. Datsu sepertinya belum lama mengenal Sithlord...kalau Anda pernah baca posting2nya dulu waktu masih memakai nick Szli, dulu itu dia anti yang namanya airbag, cuma bikin mobil jadi mahal saja! Tanya saja Mr. Hdrw yang pernah mendebatnya soal ini..
Lalu dia baru berbalik 180' setelah ada AUV, karena dengan adanya airbag, AUV berpotensi lebih unggul drpd Innova. Tapi coba aku tanya rekan2, apakah kalian semua percaya dengan Dark Lord bahwa semua varian AUV akan memiliki airbag? Padahal tujuannya mencuri pasar Innova? Paling2 cuma varian flagship (macam tipe V) saja yg ada airbag..varian low end and medium (macam tipe E dan G) tidak akan ada airbagnya.

Since U forced me Jedi, let me tell U something the Nissan guys told me.

They told me that it is very hard for their car prices to be as cheap as Toyota's BECAUSE it is Nissan new policy of REFUSING to make cheap but unsafe cars. Of course the Terrano does not count because the Terrano is a legacy of the old Nissan way.

That is why all Nissan's newer models that appear in Indonesia are all above 200 juta, all are safely equipped, and thus naturally suffer from more depreciation. Its easy for them to follow toyota and make cheap cars to get more volume and better resale value, but corporations are like humans. Some will do more to get more money, other want money also but they behave in a different way, with different principles.

It is very easy for Nissan to do what U think they are doing. Just take a simple car body, add a spec down c24 engine, and strip all safety features. That kind of thing does not take too much time. Why do U think the AUV is taking SO LONG before launching ? It is easier to make a cheap handbag than to make a bag made from silk !

And U always keep insisting that the AUV is this, that. Can U for a moment say " The GLASS is HALF FULL, instead of HALF empty ? " Can U be more optimistic for once ? Apakah anda dasarnya orang tipe pessimist ?

Anyway, Conan is known as his detective skills, not his debating skills. Why don't U follow your comic cartoon character namesake and help us find more info, instead of keeping on insisting " Dunia sudah mau kiamat ! " Ngak ada harapa lebih baik ! That kind of defeatist talk !

Oya, jangan lupa bahwa kalau kenaikan Ppnbm diberlakukan, maka pajak untuk kendaraan MPV sejenis Innova akan naik dari 20% menjadi 25%, sedangkan untuk kendaraan MPV sejenis Avanza tetap sama.

Kalau gue jadi CEO Nissan, gue akan buat satu produk baru lagi mini AUV, yang 1.500cc, no airbag segala macam, , dengan mesin MR15DE, tanpa indent yang lama lama, untuk bersaing dengan Avanza/APV, siapa takut??? :wink:

Mau kualitas sama dengan JDM tapi harga lebih murah ??

Jangan pernah lupa yang sering diucapkan 'U GET WHAT U PAY FOR !!'

Mana ada produsen yang mau rugi ??

Coba buktikan kalau AUV ini kualitasnya sama dengan JDM, bisa laku gak kalau di jual di Jepang.

Btw, dark lord, stream 1.7 yang tiap hari anda gunakan itu gak ada airbag nya juga kan ? apa anda menunggu AUV pada 2007 baru akan tiap hari naik mobil ber airbag ? Apa tidak terlalu lama ?

Until the AUV!
Kenapa perlu AUV, kalau mau jual mobil SAFE, di bawah Rp 200 juta?
Mana itu the excellent Nissan NOTE? Kalau masuk Indo tentu bisa dijual Rp 150 jutaan seperti Honda Jazz.
Mana juga Nissan Moco, Nissan Otti? Kalau masuk Indo tentu cuma Rp 100 jutaan lebih!
Lalu mana pula itu Nissan Tiida dan Latio?

Tidak sadarkah Anda, apa yang kukatakan di atas sebenarnya sudah terjadi : Nissan Note, Moco, dan Otti adalah contoh model2 JDM yang TIDAK AKAN MASUK Indo karena adanya proyek Kijang Nissan, yaitu AUV!

Ya makanya mereka bikin AUV toh!!

LOH, justru ANDA LAH yang keep insisting that the AUV is THIS, is THAT. MR20DE engine?? Tinggi 1.80 meter lebih dengan ground clearance 190 mm (Innova)?? 8 headrests?? Airline tables?? Goes to China??

And who are you to say I'm a pessimist. Anda sudah LUPA, bagaimana Anda dulu bersikap begitu pesimistis pada C25?? Padahal sudah jelas bahwa sebelumnya sudah ada C23, dan C24, tentu ada C25 dong?

Bahkan Anda sendiri yang kini memuji2 C25, model yang dulu Anda bilang belum tentu lebih baik drpd C24!

I'm neither an optimist or a pessimist. I'm a realist!

Yang benar saja! Kalau Anda minta aku cari spy pics the new Skyline GTR, aku bisa. Tapi siapa yang mau test-drive minibus buatan Purwakarta di Nurburgring? AUV itu tidak akan ada 'spy pic'nya sampai saat launching nanti!
Bagaimana kalau Anda sendiri saja yg cari, toh Anda punya banyak spy droids di Nissan? Atau Anda kunjungi saja bakal pabrik AUV di Purwakarta, siapa tahu ada AUV disguised as an Innova.

And Mr. Hdrw has a very good point here :

Sama saja seperti Innova tidak memiliki kualitas JDM seperti sebuah Toyota Wish atau Noah/Voxy, AUV juga tidak akan memiliki kualitas setinggi Serena atau X-Trail.

Jadi kenapa mengekor Toyota? Masukkan saja Tiida, Latio, Presage, Note, Moco, Otti, Elgrand, Blubird Sylphy, dan serbu pasar Indo!

Sayangnya, sebagian besar model2 di atas tidak akan pernah masuk karena akan lahirnya Kijang Nissan eh AUV. :e-naughty:

Pak ween: Saya sangat sadar sekali bahwa safety feature itu penting..saya sangat sering dibantu kerjanya ABS di VIOS kalo lagi jalan di pantura..
yang saya pertanyakan bukan penilaian terhadap pembelian pribadi, tapi penilaian objektif terhadap 2 buah kendaraan yang "1 keluarga" yang hanya berbeda di model dan di Airbag.. kalo untuk pembelian pribadi jelas safety jadi prioritas yang tipenya subjektif yang akan berbeda untuk tiap orang dan itu hak mereka masing2..

Pak conan : justru karena saya tahu bahwa bos sithlord dulu tidak mempermasalahkan airbag namun sekarang menilai 2 mobil dengan penilaian yang 180derajat berbeda hanya karena airbag...

Pak sithlord : hmm..jangan bandingin fortuner dengan Innova 2.0...masih banyak perbedaannya... Bandingin ama 2.7V... Semuanya sama kecuali Model dan Airbag...
Disini Anda mendua bos.. Anda tidak setuju dengan innova V 210 jutaan yang masih gak ber-airbag tapi Anda setuju dengan AUV, say 230-jutaan yang berairbag..perbedaan Innova-HighEnd nanti dengan AUV-HighEnd gak akan beda jauh dari segi fitur maupun kualitas, tapi AUV akan dijual dengan harga yang lebih mahal daripada Innova..Kalau Anda bilang Innova kemahalan, berarti AUV jauh lebih mahal bukan??

mau tanya ke yang udah pernah kerja di Toyota, apa iya pelat baja bodi fortuner lebih tebal dari innova?? Saya udah sering ngetok2 mobil ini dua2nya kayanya sama aja...trus mau nanya juga, sistem kerja LSPV di keluarga IMV itu sama kaya EBD gak sih??

Betul Mr. Datsu. Dan sebenarnya untuk kasus Innova vs AUV, yg membuat Dark Lord mendua 180 derajat menurutku sih sebenarnya bukan karena ada tidaknya airbag, tapi karena AUV adalah sebuah NISSAN. :e-dance:

Betul kan? Bukan cuma aku yang bisa bilang Anda mendua, Dark Lord!
Kalau Innova G saja dibilang kemahalan, AUV yang tanpa airbag berarti sangat mahal sekali dong!
Jangan bandingkan Innova G dengan City yg ber-airbag, sudah jelas City hanya bermesin 1500 cc dan hanya dua baris tempat duduk! Kalau mau membandingkan Innova itu kemahalan atau tidak, bandingkan dengan Isuzu Panther yang seharga Innova padahal sudah kuno atau Hyundai Trajet yang buatan Korea yang seharusnya lebih murah daripada buatan Toyota. Betul tidak, rekan2? :e-naughty:

Jedi, U have a very very short memory. Dulu saya pernah cerita di sini, saya pernah suggest ke NMI masukin Mocco, March, Otti etc smaller cars.

U know what they say ? They told me frankly, it is NOT economical ! Why ? Simple ! Nissan just flatly refuse to downgrade their cars and remove safety features.

If they are willing to do that, urusan pasti selesai ! Tinggal jual murah, to hell with the customer ! But they refused ! Maybe thats their long term strategy to build up their brand image as one which is sturdy, well built and packed with safety features.

And rest assured. That AUV, I am saying it again, will be more expensive than the innova. I never said she will be cheaper or same price. Of course, U PAY MORE, U GET MORE !

Talk about this car price thing. Let me cerita frustrasi saya dengan saudara saya. Dia wanita yang punya 10 milliar lebih itu. Mobil dia APV dan Stream. APV kebanyakan untuk kantor. Stream dia rencana mau ganti mobil lain.

Nah ! Dengan uang 10 milliar di tangan dia, apakah SMers akan suggest dia beli Innova ? Holy Cow ! Of course not ! With that kind of money, she should and deserve a Harrier, Serena, Fortuner, Alphard, whatever. Anything but a 193 juta innova G !

But she said she is thinking of buying the kijang again. For what reasons I ask her ? Because she said she wants to save the 40+ juta difference with other more safe cars !

And I don't blame her. Kenapa ? Tau sendiri di Indonesia, banyak konsumen, kaya maupun miskin, apakah tau ABS itu apa ? Tau kah what is EBD, BA, airbag ?

Mereka cuman taunya mobil itu terkenal murah !

Now if my relative uangnya cuman say 300 juta, dan dia mau save 40 juta, its FAIR enough !

But she got 10 milliar and she fall for the same ignorance syndrome !

I mean dia cinta ama anaknya. Dia sudah beli asuransi untuk mereka. Now, due to her ignorance, she decided to save only 40 juta out of her 10 milliar wealth and got herself a car which sudah jelas akan lebih unsafe for her and her kids on the road !

I am very frustrated at such a state of affairs ! Poor knowledge, poor safety awareness, just looking at 40 juta difference even though sudah mapan. I think this is very common in Indonesia, seperti doctor saya yang anaknya cerita, sudah mampu beli Mercy Vito, terus sekarang demi hemat 10-20 juta, ambil innova G instead of V !

A super rich doctor saving 10-20 juta and losing the ABS feature. Penny wise, pound foolish !

Mau cerama ama saudara saya juga ngak enak. Toh itu uang dia ini. Tapi I just feel WHAT A GREAT PITY ! Kerja keras dapat banyak uang, tapi masih seperti orang duit pas pasan.

I mean its allright jika mau hemat, ngak beli baju bermerek. Tas ngak perlu Loius Vuitton. Tapi mobil kan pengaruh chance survival di kecelakaan !

Damn ! Nothing disturbs me more than ignorance faced with companies that take advantage of that !

Sudah ! I have spoken long enough. Yang ngotot mau beli mobil murah / kurang aman, meskipun mampu upgrade dikit, silahkan !

Kadang saya ngerti frustrasi Pak Kwik. Dia juga sudah capek ! Ngak ada orang yang dengarkan dia !

Maybe one day I will be like him. Keep my mouth silent and mind my own business. To hell with the others ! EGP !

Tapi mohon lihat dulu photo tabrakan yang di pasang di forum umum kalau ngak salah. Yang kasus di Malaysia. See the photo for 5 minutes. And ask yourself, do U want to be like that one day ?

Ngak usah cari photonya. Ini dia. Look at the husband's face ! What do U think he is thinking ?!

I can find more accident pictures on the net, but I guess these 2 should be enough !
