blogentry-133713-0-81172500-1504170254_thumb.jpgNissan has come up with an interesting ad for its new Nissan Note e-Power. Marketed as an solution to in-car abuse, the car can help save drivers from being hurt by their passengers.

 

While the driver abuse problem shown in the ad is obviously fictional, it is still true that some drivers on the road have poor control over their braking and will tend to stomp on the brake pedal harder and later than they should when coming to a stop.

The Note e-Power is not available in Singapore and is a full electric vehicle. The compact hatch retains its 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine which acts solely as a generator to charge the batteries. It is rated at 109bhp and has 254Nm of torque. It will also do 34km/L according to Japan's JC08 test-cycle.

The driver deserved the slap.

 

When he brake should at least use his hand to

 

hold the chest of his passenger to prevent her from

 

lurching forwards. He is not a gentleman.

  • Carpark Review: Junction 8

    Built in the 1980s, Bishan (or Bishan New Town) may not be one of the earliest housing estates in Singapore, but it was the first whose HDB architecture saw a departure from the more brutalist designs of the past and featured more variation in height and design.  Residents are primarily served by Junction 8, which opened in 1993. Now more than 30 years old, it remains the sole mall in the Bishan East area. Driving there? Here’s our quick review of the carpark.  Manoeuvrability: T
