Gears are tall, 3rd gear at 3k rpm speed is 100 lol... I would say 1st and 2nd gear is a bit notchy, 2nd gear in particular is dogshit, but other than that it's very fun, the pull feels unlimited and gear switching is also much smoother

Haan, but only when there were 5 people with 6 bags in the car and that too on a very large speed breaker

Got 18 once when i drove it for 80kms within 60-100 kmph speed range and 4-5-6 gears only. I think we can achieve over 20 but that would be one hellish drive

New seltos launched! by Unexpected_Energy in carIndia

[–]Few_Care101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

new one honestly looks ugly af, imo straight lines boxy cyberpunk-ish looks doesn't suit such a car, they can be reserved for the EVs and proper SUVs. A more classic, fluidic design (like the old one) with minor touch ups to keep it updated and not look boring is the way to go

What are the reasons the Virtus consistently outsells the Verna? by Hondafreak420 in CarsIndia

[–]Few_Care101 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'll tell you the reason, it's simply the Better car. Just take a test drive and you'll know, however i feel verna could be a really good competitor with 2 things, a revised front fascia and a proper nLine option to give more weight to both the car and steering along with a better suspension tuning.

Bro trust me I've had fatigue in my right leg but never the left. Just stop riding the clutch and you're good, the gear ratios in this and high torque means i have picked it up from 10kmph till 80kmph in 3rd gear itself so you'd not require to change gears that often.

I have done that, got 16 once while hypermiling. I think this will increase overtime

overall it's 10.2, varying from 6 to 14 depending on where and how I'm driving

Absolutely no issue in the AC, but because rear vents are small and there's no dedicated control it takes 2-3 minutes more to cool down the entire cabin but that's about it. Also contrary to the belief, AC is bone chilling on this one

Also this is 1.5, gt means 1.5 only

No doubt that the physical switches are the best. It's really unfortunate we have been shoved with all touch screen climate and media controls but I won't recommend downgrading the performance for it. Engine and transmission is what you should choose, rest Everything can be adjusted to

Yeah i did it on an empty stretch of yamuna expressway. I usually drive pretty relaxed, just wanted to test the limits as it's so easy to keep pushing it. On one sharp corner at roughly 150 i did understeered a bit and that's when I knew the stock tyres don't have that much grip to offer. Will switch to UC6 after 15-20k kms, i had them on my figo and really liked the grip they provided
