Brv or xpander bro. Or even mobilio kung kulang sa budget. Ang kupad sobra ng rush. Walang kabuhay buhay. Test drive kayo

But i havent tried maximizing its power. I might hit the airbag, pag biglang preno.

Always be safe even when driving fast. Also, keep the windows closed when driving past 60 kmh as air turbulence will make the cabin sound loud, even louder as you drive faster. Hataw mode, as in 200kmh? Kung mga 150kmh, spirited or excited mode pa lang yan if you ask me.

Also, the air bag will not deploy on hard braking. It will deploy on major collisions. The car's ABS will engage when you're driving fast and you suddenly brake hard so as to keep the wheels from locking.

+1 in wearing your seat belts all the time. When the event happens that the airbag will deploy and you're not wearing seat belts, the blow from the airbag engaging will crush your face and kill you.

The 1.5 on the Avanza was... adequate. On the Rush, probably a bit less than adequate.

What kind of car are you used to? If you're coming from something like a Revo, it would probably be fine.

By the way, Carguide recently came up with a review for the Hyundai Kona. Apparently the 2.0L Atkinson Cycle engine is capable of 8km/L on 14km/h average speed. This would make it at par with typical 1.5ATs. Needless to say, I am impressed.

Personally have driven the XV multiple times and I would say it drives better than a Hyundai Santafe. Its good to drive, that 4wd is incredible pero one slight underwhelming thing about the car is that it is not so powerful.
