Genie47 1st Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 Don't have. The made in Korea car in this class with ABS is the Aveo. The main complaint about it is that it doesn't move off as fast as it stops with ABS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster 5th Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 Yes and not to forget its only EURONCAP 2 stars depite having ABS...hmmm..if ABS taken away, perhaps only left 1 star?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickster 5th Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 Actually on dry roads, ABS actually has a longer stopping distance when compared to non ABS in a straight line. ABS only really works well during wet weather by preventing skids and allowing to still be able to control the car while braking hard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie47 1st Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 Only for those "deer illuminated by headlights" drivers who jam hard on the brakes and do nothing else. Anyway, the ABS control unit it uses is the same from the Kalos model to the new Aveo. Damn hard to activate it. The computer seems very intelligent. The only time on the dry when I activated it was when I did a hard brake on a turn. Pretty good to let the wheels gain traction for the turn. After that, I didn't experience it anymore as I do LFB. If only they pack it with all those 4 airbags like the US version. The SG version only has 1 airbag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huggable Clutched September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 Thought NCAP is a crash test? It doesn't factor in brakes, or ABS at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie47 1st Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 No it doesn't. I think airbags count. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Familymanz 3rd Gear September 19, 2006 Share September 19, 2006 aiyo... ppl inquiring abt 2005 Accent rah.... not 2006 Verna.... Verna is Verna in Sillypore. Its called Accent elsewhere, for the existing model Kinda strange as Accent was called Verna in Korea & now its called Accent domestically....
