QUOTE(heihei @ Oct 11 2020, 02:39 PM) in some video it seem hrv even beaten the x50 .... worst of all , Honda hrv and Bmw x1 use the same car while x50 change car twice still fail to secure 100% win  QUOTE(exdtan @ Oct 11 2020, 11:48 AM) Yea it’s fishy and suspicious the way proton ‘claim’ so proudly but failed to demonstrate or rather an overstatement. I can’t wait to get my car and do a sprint run without ‘launch control’ to see if it’s anywhere near 8 seconds I think this is due to poor transmission design. Transmission on this vehicle is Geely inhouse design. It struggles against HRV with 40hp less! Paul Tan claims 9s+ on sprint. I tend to believe this.

QUOTE(sonotme @ Oct 15 2020, 01:40 PM) No wonder la.. its okay.. i also wanted Android Auto but you gotta look at the bigger picture.. Yeah I also wished for many things, nappa leather, passenger electric seat, built in dashcam & many other things but I guess can't have it all la. Hopefully the price will remain attractive to justify all the missing things, at least the standard variant didn't come with a manual handbrake  So much nitpicking, for 10 things to nitpick about x50 I am sure we can find 20 things of other brands but we are better than that so we will not go that direction. Let the car sell for itself, definitely will be best selling car in 2021

Think Honda is late to this tech.

Think Honda is late to this tech. Different Prius C have real transmission and the engine drive the car together with Motor honda immd dont do that, the engine only powered the car if you drive more than 100 below that motor alone powering the car, engine just for charging
