[quote]The CR15 is a Mini-MPV manufactured by Saminda mainly only for the Japanese Domestic Market , just like the C1 , fuel economy is a strong suit of the CR15. The CR15 was one of the Saminda’s best selling car alongside the C1 in Japan.
Interior
The interior of the CR15 is where the car scores plenty of points. After all, it is a low cost family runabout. Despite its diminutive exterior dimensions, there really is space for 8 in the CR15 at a squeeze, or 7 adults comfortably. The electronically operated sliding doors are also a major plus point, entry and access into the CR15 is a doddle, especially in tight parking spaces. Access to the last row seats are aided by the flexible middle row seats that fold away to reveal a wide entry. The flat floor and tall roof also makes shuffling about in the cabin less tricky.
Engine
The CR15 rides on the C1 platform, albeit with a much longer wheelbase. Driving the wheels through a front-wheels, is the familiar 1.1-liter turbocharged engine that produces 128bhp and 170Nm, and into a 6 speed gearbox. Hybrids version will be powered by also the familiar 1.3-liter Atkinson 4 cylinder engine , In the CR15, there is a slight bump in horsepower up from the C1, while torque remains unchanged.
The latest iteration of the Saminda CR15 is one of the best budget family MPVs. Its spaciousness, fresh and quirkiness inside out, and great fuel efficiency will no doubt be virtues that buyers appreciate.

Shame on you Saminda , Saminda is not good at being Saminda anymore… Ditched the CZ6 next what? guess the Type-R will be ditched soon, and Saminda will be like “oooo we are soooo green” . At least Saminda should make the last CZ6 proud , just another lame cosmetic changes with the same 550hp engine … goodluck Saminda.

Ohh the irony of calling it an Empire edition, with the Saminda automotive empire slowly fading away due to years of mismanagement, lackluster quality control and the repercussions of the many resulting recalls taking their toll.

As a car enthusiast , its hurt to see cars like this go , not to mention in real life , Saminda onces bulit so much fun little CZs which you are right they are gone , so we left CZ6 and Type-R , and the CZ6 is goooneee which make the Type-R the last true performance car (which is matter of fact it will be gone soon , time will do the counting). So what we left is some boring C3 and C5 (Alternate of Corolla and Camry) and not to mention the very green “HCC” , Saminda Spirit is dead so do customers like us , you just lost one faithful customer Saminda.
My next car would either be Erin or Airborne

I agree in the past we have cars for enthusiastic , but the trend is slowly dying now and Saminda need to move on , now the world is looking for efficiency , our C3 sold times 10 and i mean times 10 more then the Type-R . Not to mention YEN is getting weaker and weaker with more and better competition, and we need to stay profitable without significantly increasing vehicle prices.
People may be unhappy but the CZ6 must go , the CZ6 Empire Edition will be the last CZ6 to leave some legacy behind it. Saminda however will still get involved in Motorsports.
Stay ensure , Saminda will overcome it recent disaster and become better. Despite recent recalls , Saminda sales in the US gained 5.6% more , thanks to it redesign C3 and CR3

How about economical cars that are also fun to drive.
What about a hybrid sports car?
Imagine a 40 mpg Porsche 911 competitor!

Well, I wrote a big wall of text ranting on about hybrids, fuel economy, the future of the automotive industry, etc, but I think this sums better what I want to say:
Why all have to be sport and fast?
Well, now you’ve got me curious as to what was in that wall of text

Well I think that car companies should have some basic cars and then a few awesome sporty cars. 
Saminda is killing off all of their sports cars and I would hate to see them all go.
