I think its the opposite. Require more effort while the car is stationary. And when the car is moving need less effort to maneuver. At higher speeds, the steering needs to be stiff inorder to have good control of the vehicle.

Maybe the way I write down is the problem and communicate it wrongly - the picture below can better illustrate what I meant.

The VGR steering in the new RS variant of the HR-V is based on the Dual-Pinion Variable-Ratio EPS (electric power steering) in the latest Civic Type R.

Honda says the VGR steering works by changing gear ratio and the amount of steering angle automatically, according to vehicle speed.

At cruising or high speeds, VGR steering provides reduced risk of oversteering, greater driving stability, confident lane changes and improved driving safety.


On winding roads, with VGR steering, there is reduced steering angle which results in less effort to turn the front wheels and thus, more driving comfort.

During cornering, VGR steering results in a smaller steering angle at lower speeds and during parking or cornering - there is greater car control and sportier driving.

With VGR steering, during highway cruising or high-speed travelling, the steering angle is increased to make it less sensitive to small movements of the steering wheel, thus increasing driving stability.

No problem mate. everyone is here to share all informations / leaks about the coming HRV

Let’s talk about freebies! What has your Sa promised?

Nothing yet, SA mentioned gotta wait for the official price before committing to how much discount and freebies can be given

Same here. I think they won’t give any .

So to get dual air Cond zone , one must buy the top RS trim? The > 7.5k basic income has been mentioned . Interesting.....

Am I alone to think this could be the Achilles heel? And a deal breaker for some?

I just read in fb that Honda scaled down the features in the new civic but with increased pricing. Wtf! Full digital meters becum half analogue. Lol. Dual zone airconds control becum single. What a ripped off!

Personally to me, not having dual zone is not a deal breaker to me as i don't really use that "feature" most of the time. Single zone is fine.

But i hope the power tailgate could be offered as an optional accessories to be installed.

Honda is worse hit than Toyota in terms of chips shortage than Toyota, so maybe this is their way of evading the problem (by granting older tech?)

It may be not for you but I think it would be for many? In Thailand I think dual zone is offered to two variants out of three ? Though in Thailand , they only offer hybrid drivetrain.

Maybe discount comes from Honda itself. Mostly RM 1,000

same here. Nothing at the moment from my SA at puchong area

Doubt Honda giving discount for a new launched car The discount will mostly come from the SA itself.

Most give you car mats from brother accessories. Cost rm 160 per set.

Can’t expect much from a new launched car and with so many bookings haha

Difference between the RS and Turbo Variants

- Msia RS spec no two tone colour for the roof.

Sounds like more short changes for Malaysian. The most sensible choice is RS. But you need to have more than 7.5k basic income to get it and the appetite for the hybrid drivetrains as well as living with the sunroof

I believe this is the push from Honda for its i-MMD drive, hope Malaysian will finally bite, chew and swallow it up like our up north neighbour.

Too bad Nissan is missing the action with its e power

How nice it would be to be able to choose from three instead of two like our neighbour
