QUOTE(ceras @ Apr 5 2023, 04:03 PM) Mechanically, I have not faced key issues with the 3 brands. It's the 3S support that literally makes or breaks your day. In terms of ride, BMW gives you most aggression, Volvo the most pleasant, Merc is a bit lost in between trying hard to be both, How long have you owned the cars from these brands ya? Anything longer than 6 years? |

QUOTE(NothinUnusual @ Apr 5 2023, 02:57 PM) Agree with Merc. In my heart I am down to X3 and XC60. Once you addict to Volvo Bower & Wilking sound system, habis lah.....no turning back anymore. Only left Benz Burmaster can compete it. |

QUOTE(NothinUnusual @ Apr 5 2023, 03:57 PM) Agree with Merc. In my heart I am down to X3 and XC60. Don't really mind of the horsepower or torque cause I think both are quite good adi. I am okay with X3 interior, in fact I like knobs and buttons cause easier to use when driving. I am trying to see which 1 gives me less headache in the long run after warranty ends. I don't really care much on FC also cause SUV and FC don't make much sense. As long as 1L can still go 8-10km then okay dah. X3 and XC60 .. ok here's few more points .. X3 .. BMW driving dynamics can't go wrong .. Volvo over some small bumps will feel the suspension cannot settle down properly .. don't get me wrong, it is comfortable. But volvo also much heavier .. that time touge up genting can feel understeer Too bad Volvo don't make tanks like this already. Volvo touchscreen looks nice and nice to use .. but to be honest, it is a hassle to keep it clean .. and it really is troublesome to adjust the aircond when driving, and the ac control stays there, blocking everything .. so yeah many 'button' presses just to adjust the ac. apple carplay and android auto also abit small due to the potrait orientation. And drive mode have to adjust through the screen, they removed the knob on the centre console for drive mode selection .. abit mafan |
