Hi All,

Can i ask abt mivec engine? When i stop at traffic light the press the pedal the RPM increase from 1K to 3K++ but the power come very slow?

It this is normal for mivel CVT?

Sorry guy.
I don't found any forum on lancer, i don't drive inspira.

Today i test drive new Mitsubishi ASX same engine with inspira 2000cc, but i feel lack of power when i move from traffic light..RPM jump up fast but power come slowly...

What is 2.4?

Noisy is very normal too bcos of steel belt?

OIC..i come to this Mitsubishi brand bcos of new ASX 4WD...
i just wonder why my current honday city idsi cvt is better pick up performance than mivec 2.0.
My city response is very good at traffic light, RPM from 1K to <2K speed 30-50 can give me better pick up from stop.
While i test drive ASX same minyak press, RPM over 3K then response is very slow...feel car cannot move then need press more minyak again.

Morning bro.
I dont know what is rubber band effect....safe fuel efficient? my Honda city idsi is CVT too rite?

You means a bit underpower due to ASX weight or the engine behavior of fuel saving?

Yea i try few SUV...so far the subaru xv is really best in pick up and performance.

Inspira have paddle shift with 6 speeds can avoid the rubberband effect?

I read this from goole on Honday City CVT:

City gets paddle shifters with 7 speeds
What this means is that you can avoid the rubberband effect by simply pulling a paddle behind the steering wheel.

In the normal ‘D’ mode, the engine revs to about 5,000 rpm each time you put your foot flat down.
Then on, it takes a while until the speed of the car reaches the speed of the engine.
This is perhaps the downside of the Nissan X-Tronic CVT found in the Scala and Sunny, as it takes an endless amount of time until you actually get going.
Honda on the other hand have done a rather remarkable job in masking this rubberband effect, and even without the paddle shifters, the City CVT feels quick.

Sorry guy, i not familiar with all the technology or ctv stuff...just know how to drive the car only.

I just know how to compare my current city 1500cc and any new test drive car.
I know ASX weight is high than city but i tot 2000cc can give better pick up but after google it..now have a bit understand the cvt on ASX.

Understand but just cant accept less power car when i move from 1500 to 2000cc car...hihi

Any MOD wont void the warranty if i get my new ASX to have better pick up and performance?

BTW, steel belt is cause the noisy sound as well? ASX noise is very loud too....

Then inspira 2.0 have same issues as ASX as well?

Drive honda now and CRV is not in my list for SUV...
Next will test drive peugoet 2008, 1600cc and 1085kg..119K afford price too.

Sorry guy, i don't say inspira is under power ..just 1st time i try mitsubishi mivec engine and cvt...so wan to clarify on this cvt stuff only.

CX 5 is in my top list, fuel saving, exterior nice but 144K feel interior kosong only...except new skyactive technology. now cx 5 need wait 4-6 month.
Look for suv with BIG sun roof...tat why come to 2008 then ASX.
