QUOTE(YouDontKnowMyName @ Apr 26 2014, 01:43 AM) Just did my own Exora Bold acceleration video  Everything stock. 138horsepower, 205Nm torque. Air-Cond ON - Fan Speed 1 No passengers on board. 0-100km/h - 11s 100-150km/h - 17s  But 100-150 is rather tame... 17s? Which do you think is the bigger limiting factor? The CVT or small-ish, albeit turbocharged engine? |

QUOTE(YouDontKnowMyName @ Apr 28 2014, 01:56 AM) I too, think that the 100-150km/h time could be less, especially considering that I did not turn off the air conditioning. I didn't look at the vid earlier... just looking at the figure.The rpm did drop a bit although I am certain that I floored the pedal throughout. CVT gearbox characteristic, maybe? On the CVT, i got to know that it behaves quite peculiarly where it disallows the engine to 'redline'. Yeah i know it's not a race car but I'm curious on how much that affects the turbo spool. QUOTE(alexei @ Apr 28 2014, 01:46 PM) For the folks reading this forum, feel free to chime in, otherwise feel like talking to a wall sometimes. Ok. Thank you for being welcoming. At least that doesn't make me feel like a busybody.I think Exora Bold is the best value product proton has to offer right now although there's still a lot of room for improvement. Minor things are like fit & finish and overall built... but it all adds up. Hoping for huge leap in quality for the next gen. I'm not too obsessed with badge prestige and willing to pay > rm100k for a proton, provided it's good enough. |

QUOTE(alexei @ May 1 2014, 11:58 AM) Have anyone realized that the dyno chart comparing CFE, CPS & 2L is not realisti? Wonder why we cannot out accelerate a 2L car as it appears? QUOTE(YouDontKnowMyName @ May 1 2014, 02:37 PM) You mean the chart on first page? That's just torque figures And due to CVT perhaps? |
