Hi my first topic here in FnF

just wanna do a compilation of car revs
My Nissan Sunny 130Y:

4th gear:
@ 60kmph = TBA
@ 90kmph = TBA
@ 100kmph = 2950rpm
@ 110kmph = 3250rpm

5th gear(overdrive)
@ 60kmph = TBA
@ 90kmph = 2300rpm
@ 100kmph = 2500rpm
@ 110kmph = 2750rpm
Company car, Proton Wira 1.5, Auto, 3 gears

@ 60kmph = TBA
@ 90kmph = TBA
@ 100kmph = 3100rpm
@ 110kmph = 3300rpm
Colleague car, Honda Accord 2.0, Auto

@ 60kmph = TBA
@ 90kmph = TBA
@ 100kmph = 2600rpm
@ 110kmph = 2800rpm

Note:
1. All value are obtained on level and straight roads
2. Please abide by the Road and Transport regulation at all times
3. Please ensure own safety and the people around you when operating a vehicle

*disclaimer: all value are approximate due to safety reasons
Compared to my own Nissan, the 3gear proton seems to rev much higher than usual. I took notice when the engine sound was loud when travelling at max speed limit and saw the rev in excess of 3000rpm.
Even with sparse insulation on the Nissan, when idling, you can barely hear the engine sound
and the sound is intrusive once you past the legal speed limit.

This, I think, the newer proton Wira is suitable for urban drive where top speed is not essential

for me I have always standby the concept that lower revs at higher speeds mean lower fuel consumption

same goes for my trusty metal stead, EX5 (lama version)

so whats your revs?
