just test drove cfe-ed campro exora bold..out of curiosity to feel what is soft turbo and driving mpv felt..

not bad..i might say,i just dont like the delay of the cvt and to me the unresponsive brakes..other than that..its quite ok..

a apple to orange comparison with my car..(240hp, 195nm tq,1350kg,manual tranny lsd gb NA)..compared to exora(138hp,205nm tq,1400-ish kg,cvt FI)

but the torque and curb weight is quite similar..

gua tak pandai guna flat toerque lagii blush.gif .i like high revvings machine

other than that..its a good and solid build mpv..and good handling as well..and the nvh is awesome..

yang i tak suka.

1.kalau jalan jauh ,takda tempat letak tangan kiri.
2.tempat duduk keras.
3.cvt punya delay dan sudden surge turbo tu buat jadi tak smooth untuk city driving(congested).
4.takda feel..(fun factor).
5.badge proton

but ur 240hp car cannot fit 7 person nicely, much smaller, much older than this exora.
and btw, what fun factor u want in an mpv? u plan to race it with full occupant? did u read news few days ago where 6 ppls in an mpv crashed and 4 teenagers juz after spm dead? lol fun factor.

L gear is like S mode in honda city. the rev gets higher with the same throttle feedback

So should the driver switch to L when going from standstill then switch back to D?

EDIT: should stop derailing this thread, feel free to reply in the BLM/FL/FLX tered biggrin.gif

no. that would cause unnecessary fuel wastage. live with it coz face the fact, the car come with 2 most lagging tech for current vehicle; the drive-by-wire and cvt. anyway its juz the starting of the acceleration though. i believe after that everything is super fine and smooth

due to the presence of intake vvt, the powerband can shift according to engine load. im suppose this vvt we're talking about is something that retard/advance the ignition timing of the engine.
also i remember cam pulley also can shift the powerband

VVT is simply variable valve timing, not ignition timing.

Like honda i-vtec,VVTi, DVVt, CVVt, it change the intake valves timing from overlap opening with exhaust valves or no overlap at all.

The bump on  the timing belt cover houses the mechanism exactly like an adjustable cam pulley except it's automatically controlled

i don't know about other vvt system but pretty sure vvti does alter the ignition timing as well
