lolz, you mut be busy watching the MID that you didnt notice our insights have the 'S' gear  tongue.gif

not all hybrids have auto-stop, only Honda's IMA incorporated auto-stops due to its parallel hybrid system. During idle, my aunt's Prius does not require auto-stops and the trouble to continuously step on the brake pedal.

Really, i regreted sitting on her Prius, their hybrid system are much more advanced, oh mai, you can even have the option to display the speedometer on the windscreen~! Her's is definitely quieter (with the electric motor running at lower km/h), only can listen to the tyres rolling sound, not to mention better sound insulation... Aiyo, the gear knob so cute~!  tongue.gif She is still getting used to the complicated displays.

The only console is, I told her my insight looks better than her dino, hahaha.

Off-topic, I saw a ct200h on the road last night in klang finally. driving like grandma apparently... but really cool-looking car, with the drl's on and low profile.

yeh in the manual, "S" stands for Second. but feels just like Sports Mode to me - the tranny allows higher revs before going into the next "gear".

ur right bro, Prius is more advanced than our Insights but can't compare in terms of looks...

i wish that they could optimize the "Auto-stop" function i.e. to wait at least 5 secs when the car is idle/stationary with the brakes on. at least the engine doesn't start/stop so often when we're stuck in traffic jams. maybe they could roll out a firmware update for the ECU when we send our cars for service thumbup.gif

Hi, add me in black smile.gif
Anyone feel car jerking wen low speed or wen release pedal?

hi everyone, added mine -> Pearl White. cheers!

kelvin_hata - yes, i think it's the servo that switches between the transmission and battery charging. it kinda makes the car response feel like hesitating when u step on the pedal....
