HSD work the way it suppose to work. Else it won't give me FC of 25 to 32.

Deckbuild 6th Gear December 10, 2012 Share December 10, 2012 but HSD is not for highway cruising...more suitable for start-stop traffic/city drive like SG.. True, but don't look down on that bloody ECVT, I can cruise at 90 ~ 110kph looking at instant FC is around 25 to 35km/l Actually alot of drivers out there have the misconception of CVT. This car needs to be driven fast to get the good FC as you need to get to the cruising speed fast. At very gentle down slope, I can maintain 90 to 100 and achieve 35 to 40 km/l. Slight upslope will get around 20 to 25, steep slope will kill all the FC. My weekly trip to Malacca, able to achieve around 23 to 24 km/l because I'm too lazy to drive properly. Also one main thing that a lot fail to observe. If one keep using the battery on highway, when you exit the highway, the batt won't have enough juice to power it back home or to office carpark, meaning to say will be using engine to drive the car on small road, which normally give worst ever FC due to low gear ratio. HSD is actually very interesting, if one knows how it works. It's really not for hardcore speeder and fat legs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the system takes care of batt alone or batt + engine depending on speed/driving conditions? You mean can override and use batt only when cruising?

You mean can override and use batt only when cruising? You can manual override it using batt until 50kph only. But if you are gentle enough, at high speed, you will still be able to run it batt only(system), any more pressure you put on the accelerator it will go back to petrol again. Even when it's running full petrol, when the correct pressure is apply, it will give FC extremely good FC on flat, and slight down slope(over 35km/l) at over 80kph.

O-Oblursotong Neutral Newbie August 27, 2014 Share August 27, 2014 Hi, im a newcomer to this forum. But i have burning questions to ask. I have recently signed a sales agreement to buy a Honda Vezel at a certain price. About 1 month later, agent called and told me LTA has reduced the rebate for this model because of higher CO2 emission and asked me to top up $5k. I argued that i signed the agreement prior to the change and that i shouldnt be made to pay the difference. Agent remained adamant and asked me to reconsider. I have all the time to think about it until the car is due for collection. Any advice what else i can do about this situation? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
