I always hear people say that Honda engine is good. How come the youtube video shows otherwise? Any expert to enlighten?

 

 

 

How about handling wise? Is the korean playing some tricks? Is the video truthful?

how can u tell if an engine is good or no good by a race?? [shakehead]

 

when people say Honda engines are "good" i think they are referring to its construction durability. furthermore, these are the "weaker" MPV engines and not the performance ones.

 

as for the korean vid, hard to tell. esp if it's a paid test, then could be skewed. [laugh]

Honda engines aside ... the Mazda 5 really looks impressive in that test.

 

I think that Sonata is fitted with AGCS

This is a comparison of Sonata with and without it.

It just shows the miracle of advanced traction control and 4 wheel steering.

 

and what is AGCS

I doubt our local baseline models come with this.

From the video clip, can you still trust the Korean testing team (especially if they're film in Korea). This also explain why Honda sell so much more cars then all the Korean car add together (in SIN & whole world)

Honda is one hell of a good engine for everyday driving as well as a short sprint once a while.

 

Honda actually scarifices FC for the capability of the short burst. But IMHO, it is a good scarifice.

 

If Honda can become the offical testing partner of ENCAP (heard next year), I will definely change to Honda for my next car. Strong body + Good engine!! [drivingcar]

Both mazdas have the 2.3L engine, whereas the rsz stream only has a 2L, the absolute should be a 2.4 if i'm not wrong, but the car also the heaviest one.

 

Not a fair comparison, so I would think this clip is not telling it all.

Ha ha I never believe their any of their test. They are usually very commercialized. There's a lot of things happening in the back that more than meets the eye.

 

Anyway this test is not about engine, more like "making Honda look like idiot if we... use their CVT version... use crap tyres..." [laugh]
