hi!

no need care about other driver lah. if ur speedo show 90 km/h the the road limit is 90 then it is ok lor. most importantly is ur own safety. if u feel that u r hogging the road, just move to the left lane and let ohers overtake lor. nothing to lose, rite ;)

hi maxngck

i agree.
90km, is by the law, so, we hv no fear. steady lah!
sorry, i must agree because i don't know how to disagree. agreeeee only....

Get use to ur car... once u have a good feel of it... you'll overcome the 'problems' that you faced... Pick-up problems arent really a problem if you are able to respond b4 the power is needed (CVT).  Have a good feel of your car, our Latio is definitely able give you High Speed, Good pick-up & respond to the sudden need for a burst of power.  :D

As for Suzuki Swift... small & powerful it may seem to be... but its definitely OVERPRICED.  :devil2:  its not worth the $$ to buy such a car...  :zipped:  Also, only the Sport edition is able to give more 'power'... if its the normal edition...  :devil2: :devil2: :devil2: ::) ::) ::)

haha put to nuetral when travellin down slope... actually it all depends on ur drivin style, at times when i behave myself i can archieve up to 600km for 40l of petrol but at times when i misbehave i can clock only 480km so it all depends on how u step on ur accelerator.

Our car pick-up cmi but long distance gd i tried 180km/h and free-hand the steering wheel, surprisingly the vehicle can still maintain straight line no zig-zag.. hardly can get 1.5l car got 109bhp even some 1.6 oni 107bhp

Hi Sis, Based on 1/4 mark not accurate and hard to say whether FC is good or not.  Need to know how many litres you pumped and how many km you travel.  Even then, based on one tank cannot be sure.  Better still if you can monitor a few tanks in terms of total litres pumped and total km travelled, say for a month.  This is because different pump as well as different attendant can result in different amount of petrol pump each time.   Different traffic conditions and travel pattern across time will also mean different FC average.  Hence, taking the average of a few tanks will bgive a more accurate indicative FC figure.

No. of distant travelled in km / no. of litres pumped in = FC km/l

thanks rayace.  :smile:

u're welcome. but take consideration of our reserve tank capacity, usually 7-8 litres.

hardly meh? for the past few years.... most Jappy made 1.5/1.6sedan cars come with at least 109/110bhp as standard/minimum...... & only Mazda3 came in lower bhp for 1.6.

Not refering to the new altis (107) which is a Tom yam car IMO.  Even the 1.5 Axio carries a 110 mah

The reserve tank capacity is irrelevant since FC is computed based on the total distance travelled divided by the total amount of petrol pumped (for a few tanks).
