QUOTE(ascension @ Apr 21 2012, 04:21 PM) Test drove the car, the low end torque quite bad before the turbo kicks in, but overall the car is pretty good. There is a gearbox cooler i think, pretty sure I saw one. Acceleration felt pretty smooth ,felt something like the accord 2.0. Looking forward to the SE version. bro..it's not the turbo problem...don't get mislead by some 'expert' telling you of late turbo reaction or turbo lag stuff...such size turbo will not even lag in low gear....those who told you that I can confirm they know nothing about car feedback and communicating with a car. it's the gearbox clutch tuning that causes the 'lagging' feel. it's a cvt meaning no actual gear involve but do note that there's still 7 virtual gear being set.when saying no gear it means no gear loss during the drive. some may comment saying cvt means no gear and can have infinite gear...well then,why do most of the manufacturer setting the car to 6,7,or 8 gears for most cvt cars?there's virtual gear involved but no gear loss. in preve case,the lower gear is set for best city ride FC...the gear will maintain @ 1-3 gear before you reaching certain speed and rpm.when driving it in manual shifting mode you won't feel the 'lag'. |

QUOTE(bem69 @ Apr 21 2012, 07:12 PM) I agree, D was a real boring drive, but if for everyday drive, city driving, to save FC, then this is it. There was a lag. because the engine isn't that efficient yet for the truth.it's a powerful engine but not a FC friendly engine thus they choose this CVT gearbox instead...and that might be the reason why they haven't launch the manual version of the CFE preve...once the FC problem sorted out they will launch it i think.But I didn't feel the lag in S and manual shifting. It was fun in fact. |
