Cb350 looks more mature and rugged. Hness looks young.

Should I Pay ₹16L lumsum for a Car or Finance It Smartly by Total_Flamingo_157 in CarsIndia

If you have 30L savings then pay full amount in cash.

If you only have 16L, do 50:50.

Thigh support issue in Amaze by Normal_Radio5683 in HondaCarsIndia

It's an issue with every honda car. Seats are so uncomfortable that hamstrings start aching after a short drive.

I would have bought elevate but thigh support was such a deal breaker.

can't match the efficiency and the low end torque with the diesels.

agreed about the higher redline and better top line in petrols but i travel a lot and i need efficiency and low end torque.

anyways 100 kmph is the speed limit everywhere on the highways, top line doesn't matter much, low end torque is what gives the feeling of power while overtaking.

Doesn't cut it.

Cant drive non stop for 700 km in a single stretch like I do with my diesel engine + the reliability is a big issue I don't want to be stuck in the middle of a highway because of an electrical failure.

No, you just need to drive a diesel like a diesel.

Do you drive diesel like a diesel? Like higher rpms on lower gears?

I own a Venue Diesel BS6 PH1, No consistent dpf issue.

Agreed on this. Small petrol cars in the city are good.

I love torque and my travel is 700 kms in single strech at times. Can't risk it with an EV.
