how slightly more is 2.0 fc? can it get anywhere lower than 9L/100 km city driving?

Depends on your definition of city driving.

For 2.0:
If it's the typical metropolitan crawl during peak hours where you spend more time stuck in jams than actual moving, expect your FC to go up as high as 11-12L/100km.

If city driving means you are able to maintain a pretty constant leisurely cruise around 50-60kmh, 9-10L/100km is achievable.

For highway cruising at 100-110kmh, 6.5-7L/100km will not be surprising. However if you speed beyond 120km/h and maintain it at that speed, it'll easily go up to 8+L/100km even if it's on the highway.

I've tested both 2.0SX with 6-speed & 1.6SX with 4-speed (cant seem to get 1 1.6SX with 6-speed) and I noticed that when cornering above 60km/h the car seems to drift a little...any particular reasons for that? Seems a bit unstable but both the SAs are clueless..
The reason why u feel the car drifts is because the back tyres slightly move in the dierction u are cornering.

It sure feels dirrerent if u were previously using another car but its really a cool feature...

how fast?..how about 110km/h at the karak hi way (the pusing2 one) tongue.gif.actually i always avoid hi speed cornering.only once in a while.(because wife doesnt like it lol).if u ask me, forte is good during cornering..i know for some people, 110km/h is nothing.
*
140km/h is standard for cornering in PLUS hway...
in karak hway 120km/h in right lane... 130km/h in middle line, 140km/h in left lane...
i dunno la why i slow down on right lane... maybe fobia' with the steel divider...
the above from straight then turn left, if turn right then vice versa...
more than that also can, but it's up to your 'ball'... tongue.gif it's subjective maaa...

I am looking to buy a 1.6L Forte in the coming 3 months. Right now there may be other options around the same price range, i.e., City and Inspira, which may be better buys with branding, after-sales service, spare parts availability & bigger engine but my heart & head turns every time a Forte passes me by so I know which car I am in love with!  drool.gif
