Naza to launch eight models next year!
The Naza Group targets to achieve sales of 25,970 units next year with major contribution coming from its Kia division. Joint executive chairman SM Nasarudin SM Nasimuddin broke down the 2010 sales target to 22,000 Kia vehicles, 2,930 Peugeot vehicles and 1,040 units of the Naza Forza.
Naza plans to launch four new Kia models which will include a “recreational vehicle” in the first half of the year. The conglomerate will also introduce four new Peugeots in 2010, including the “T33″ entry-level model that will be manufactured at its Gurun plant.
Our guess is that the “RV” in question will be the new Sorento, while the Soul and Forte Koup should also be coming. How about the facelifted Optima to make it four?
On the Peugeot front, T33 is the 207 Sedan, which despite the name is a booted 206 with the 207’s “big mouth” face. Naza will be counting on this small saloon to provide the bulk of Peugeot sales. My personal prediction for the other three is 207, 308 CC and a crossover, possibly the 3008.
still thinking of naza kia Forte..why only 2years warranty?? naza have no confident??
Kia Spectra Novus 2006 Model, black colour and the no. plate is WLV 8844. If you want the chasis and the engine no.,no prob..I’ll gladly dig my car’s purchase old file and write it here but for what…to bring Naza down?! What did I get from an old grunge? Become rich wan meh?
My point…Forte is a good car b’coz it’s built in Korea. Upon purchase got AP, come on…that’s just prove it’s a CBU unit. Naza need to IMPROVE on it’s after sales services and built quality! Jangan ASSemble kereta 50% is good, 50% is crap…sapa kena nasib lah! Not a good business ethic…nuff said!
torque
may we know what kia/naza model u buy?

When the traditional sugar business also forced to sell to another company AND then raise the sugar price….well, congratulations for those public, we are officially going to be squeeze with our daily needs beside oil.
They are the same group of people who DOES NOT care about the public, but squeeze every cents from our pitty earning.
Still wanna support NAZA?
_______________________________________________________________
all the business news i read, i never found anywhere that ever said it is forced to sell. Did Kouk told you directly he is forced to sell? dont speculate other things here. we discuss car here.
another rubbish otr.. see how many NAZA/KIA showroom shutdown.after sell drop too bad?..
——————————-
i think u should not said its a rubbish .. the only thing rubbish on the road is “lori sampah” …
and for me what i look for is safety .. at least 5 star rating safety
…
dun recall if vios or city or that … or should we call it coffin on the road??
come on lah exora also better in term of safety
NAZA formula of success:
NAZA = Auto + Property + Restaurants = Cronies + Politics = BIG $$$$$
Malaysia mah…what do you expect??? You can’t fight them, join them. Just accept that Tolls have to pay, good cheap vehicles have to buy, no point hating them..
Naza should take over the assembly of Mercedes from DRB and also BMW from Sime Darby also do assembly of Alfa Romeo in Malaysia. The prices will surely drop like what’s happening with Peugeout.
What to do,kopi-man. Naza was the smartest bumiputra who
took advantage of the AP system and built an empire from it ??
Naza pls give some back to the rakyat by giving us better value for money
cars when they come to our shores. TQ

I think the four model that Naza Kia bring in is 2011 Kia Sorento, Kia Forte Koup, Kia Soul and Kia Cadenza.
as much as i hate it. naza is doing a good job.
NAZA is expanding from a small second hand car shop to a big business
group which include automobile, property and land, chains of restaurant
etc Now……Just look at the EFFECT of being AP KING…
Btw, i havent see even a Forte on road which launched with much hype EXCEPT one with singapore plate
Naza just don’t be a “Jack of all trade & master of none.”
Most car co’s offering 3S outlets. With better management
of these centres then only your reputation will improve.
Way to go Naza !!! P1 feeling the heat !!

If all KIA – NAZA service centres offer service as good as NSS Glenmarie, than the brand stand a chance to keep loyal customers.

At least here there’s a person who know what he speaks off! Yes bro, that’s right…NSS Glenmarie does give a better services compare to my experience at NAZA KIA own service center near Federal Highway there!

dont listen to people here.. u dont know who they are. they might be competitor’s salesman who felt threaten. go visit their owner club forum or better yet, ask the owner urself. no, not owner who post here tell u he had like 100 kia at home with problem here and there. Most of kia’s and proton’s so called “owner” in paultan blog got problem with their car. oh wait not only their car, their “family and friends” kia also got problem.
________________________________________________________________________
Ooooooouuuuu….and we should listen to u then?! We also might be competitor salesperson who felt THREATEN? Oh come on….and who r u? U also might b a KIA salesperson wat…
Hello fren…I don’t need a 100 KIA to tell u it’s BAD…I need just bloody 1!!! Want me 2 show my 6 months purchase proof of bad quality NAZA built KIA n does that gave me right to kick ur butt?!! Nonsense crap!
The only GOOD KIA is KOREAN KIA and the only BAD KIA is NAZA KIA! Forte is good right?! That’s b’coz it’s from Korea dude…go see for urself!
Looking forward to the new Sorento. But am a bit afraid due to the bad track record of Naza when it first launch the old (i.e. the current) Sorento. I read in forum so many problems with the first batch of locally assesmbled Sorento due to poor assembly quality. Will history repeat itself? I really hope not because the new Sorento looks amazing…
Naza if you want to attract people to buy your car, please improve your Customer Service….
naza brothers and sons, u r rich already, just enjoy u r life
Maybe this car?

Just wishing
Paul, i think the 4 kia models are Soul, Sorento, Sportage & Koup.
Kia Soul @ rebadged prices – YES i want !!!
what about Kia Ceed?Does Naza will bring it in? As a hatch for Forte I think…
Paul to clarify the Peugeot models coming next year, it will not be the 3008, but will instead be the Citroen C4 Picasso’s nearly identical twin, the 5008.

When are you ever going to learn? With your mentality like that, there is really no hope for Malaysia.Always thinking of the tongkat. Always looking for that loop-hole and finding the easy way out.
Develop something that is of international standard and sell worldwide. Own the product, own the technology and know how. This is what will keep us alive.
===========================================
For me the bottom line is that i get to drive a more decent car than a
crappy Proton. What to learn when P1 controls the local market with
sub std cars and very limited choices and engine.
What to develope when the cars Naza is bringing in is already of proven int.std ? We just don’t have to economies of scale to come up with an int std car so don’t pretend that we have one.
Proton is the one using the tongkat for the past 25 years.
Keep on bashing for as long as you could, no one has the right to stop you. Though I dislike the AP King, I bought a Kia Forte 1.6 SX recently simply because it’s the most affordable C segment non-national car around. I took delivery of the car on Christmas eve and had done 700 km so far. It’s a nice car to drive, quiet, comfortable and powerful ( at least by my standard) but I must admit that the fuel consumption is quite frightening. Doing 10.5 litres per 100km in city drive and 8.4 litres city cum high way drive. May be the engine is still tight, hopefully the figure will improve, I have my fingers crossed. Anyway, I do enjoy every moment while driving the car. By the way, a very happy new year to all of you out there.
wow, soul and koup are coming
although i do like the new kia models, i am not really taking this nicely.
its an ap king business, naturally they will outlast the others.
8 new models, compare to the other jap and conti manufacturers, we’re gonna be in for one tight year. seeing rebadged cars with inferior quality due to CKDs.
another rubbish otr.. see how many NAZA/KIA showroom shutdown.after sell drop too bad?..
dont buy naza .. regret for the whole life..
gurantee given
Lol…why ptuii ptuii..you got money make your own choice la..they just make the car cheaper
i’ve been drivin the forte for almost a year.its superb compare wt all japs car!
very good in french
