Hafei Minz 1.1 liter 7-seater van
Singapore is a place where both the original Hafei Lobo and the Naza Forza are sold in the same market, but Hafei in Singapore exists with a 2 model line-up. Other than the Lobo, there is also a little 7-seater van called the Hafei Minz.
Powering the Hafei Minz is a 1.1 liter engine that is different from the one found in the Forza/Lobo (1,051cc versus the Lobo/Forza’s 1,075cc), putting out 52 horsepower at 5,200rpm and 83Nm of torque at 3,000rpm (versus the Lobo/Forza’s 65 horses and 88Nm). It has a power steering and weighs about 1,050kg. It measures 3,745mm in length, 1,505mm in width and it is 1,925mm tall.
Think of it as a smaller and cheaper Suzuki APV with one less seat. If sold here the Hafei Minz could cost under RM50,000, possibly making it the cheapest 7-seater MPV around if Naza Corporation ever decides to expand its Hafei-rebadging line-up with the Minz.
