QUOTE(Ray9300 @ Sep 19 2013, 02:00 AM) Why are so many people bashing vios ? vios is like cheap car for entry level/fresh grad/ low income group like security guards in some country... Some said its a car for ahbeng ahseng , and god spec and many more. I visited paultan website today reading about the new 2013 vios , when I go to the comment section , so many people complaining the car lack of safety over priced and using the same engine for more than 10 years , isn't Nissan gtr also using same rb26 engine for r32 r33 r34 . And some more complain about the old 4 speed auto gear box. Hmm I really hope someone can write me a detail explanation of what is going on . vios is like a car for the middle/above average class in our country. vios in other country has better quality in terms of safety, such as GOA, 6 airbags and so on.. vios in 3rd world country are cut cost version, which is more like the milo tin version if u google around you can find vios selling at rm30k in certain countries. which is in the cheapest range. so.. some ppl saw these points, and will think vios is over priced car ... |

QUOTE(WaCKy-Angel @ Sep 19 2013, 09:49 AM) Agreed. Nothing much wrong with 4 speed. 7 speed? i tot altis is with cvt Except that if u are those "racer" that likes to speed, then it will eat more petrol compared to 5 gear or more gear box. But then again, how fast can u drive? For example, my Altis has 7 speed but i doubt its running at 6th gear when im driving at 140kmh  |

QUOTE(zeus2005 @ Sep 19 2013, 11:42 AM) CVT by right does not has physical gear or infinite gear ratios. The 7 speed is just a gimmick i believe. its not gimmick, its a virtual gear ratio set in the ECU to tell the CVT belt to stay at certain tension position to imitate the gear ratios.  |

The virtual gears are there the same reason why you need to downshift when coming out of a corner or climbing hills you need the torque quickly. CVT takes their time to climb up the RPM range, with simulated stepped ratios, you can downshift and reach the desired RPM immediately. |
