my wife drive Preve to office yesterday, after turn off the engine the cooler still running for 5 minutes, i ask her what happen? she said she switch to S mode and take over Vios, Civic and other cars on GCE highway.
i said to her that car not yet pass 1k

i only teach her using S mode when want to exit from junction or roundabout, but abuse S mode

it's even hard to lock myself especially when see Vios and Civic 1.8 around , you will become naturally light footed.

i think so because this Lowyat - The Fast & The Furious is one of my bookmark in my tablet

1 noticeable different other than the price is rear suspension, Forte is using Torsion beam and Preve is using Multilink, you can feel the different in term of handling, ask your wife to sit at the back and go through bumpy road or pot hole and you will adapt to CVT whining.

But if you have capacity for 120k car better go for Elantra

Twin scroll turbo 240NM@1500-4500 RPM

one scenario, what if you park in shopping mall and your side mirror folded, then came one guy park really near to you, you don't even have a space to unfold your side mirror, if auto unfold sure "Prak"

for the spec sheet, if the dynometer from engine used as a measurement method, manufacturer should not account for 15% loss due forces of inertia, drag, windage, pumping and friction right? , even if some dynometer able to add this value.

Seem like the result of HP inaccurate from the Photo

If you think rattling or other sound is major issue that holding you from driving the car
And you have to immediate sent your car to SC to fix the problem without able to wait for next service.
I think go for Vios, it's proven for reliability

They have failed to fix my Gluk Gluk problem, need to taichi vendor. Got "recall- battery +ve & -ve terminal loose" in my invoice. Other than that pretty satisfied with the complain. CAT not so expert la I think need to refine their technical skill

Throttle response much better after service,
