Paultan only review preve premium and preve executive m/t.
CFE is quite expensive. And i havent once drive over 160kmh.
Tq for the info. but does preve executive also got this S mode? There's no preve executive in the showroom.
I'd like to know:
- acceleration response, example when masuk roundabout.
- steering response. my old vios steering response in too week.
- real life fc of preve executive in average. is it lower than stated, tolerable or far higher?
Just want to be sure...already fix on preve, but still consider either iafm+ cvt or cfe cvt version. Sometime, the comment i read based on different standard. Since old vios is my current car, i'd like to compare them. Is it far better?(as it seems to me, but not sure).
I dont think there's any preve exec for test drive. If you're lucky only show unit. Not much different in term of appearence.
preve exec have S mode. more like an overdrive to boost acceleration.
- acceleration response, example when masuk roundabout.
acceleration is not good when u start from stationary coz is quite a heavy car, u might want to get used to it. when it moves it can accelerate fast especially when you change to S mode and rpm at 2700-3200 rpm. for starters maybe want to use S mode in roundabout. for me always D mode.
- steering response. my old vios steering response in too week.
not sure what u mean by steering response. the NVH is good. u have to test drive the CFE unit (showroom unit) coz the feeling/handling is about the same. As you are not a very fast driver. exec also uses multilink suspension and equipt with ABS and ESC. You can cruise in confidence at 140-160kmh.
- real life fc of preve executive in average. is it lower than stated, tolerable or far higher?
my average FC is (1 liter/10-12km)
in term of engine reliability, i think should be okay cause it siblings are the as saga FLx. therefore many bug have been fix. ours is iafm+ cvt, have the '+' there.
