Downshift before overtaking. No problem sa city dun lang sa provincial highways daming mabagal na tricycle at truck when you see an opening you have a few seconds to overtake.

Downshift, lower gear, higher RPM, aarangkada.

Altis hindi

Pero nung nag-reset ako ECU nagdodownshift na, pag gusto niya (hindi pag gusto ko). Kaya ata nila nilagyan ng paddle shifters, para di naman magwala yung driver dahil sa unresponsiveness ng tranny

Floor the accelerator, tranny goes down a gear, to make RPM rise up to where the torque is, around 4k - 5k rpm,
High torque, better acceleration. :D
Try mo.

Thanks that works sa city namin but not sure sa sonic. Feedback sa nag test drive ng sonic kahit ifloor daw ang bagal mag accelerate

Really hope we will have time on Sunday to test drive.

Yan ang nagustuhan ko sa tranny ng Honda, ang bilis mag respond sa behavior ng driver. VTEC agad

1.3 City. The 1.5 is lovely to drive, I'm pretty sure the 1.3 will be about the same.

1.3 City feels lifeless at low revs. About the same as a Mirage 1.2, if not a tad worse. But once you get to its powerband you realize why it's rated at 100 HP. Pretty decent acceleration when you push it. Handling isn't all that impressive though - steering is good, but skinny tires make for a floaty feel when cornering.

But for me mas sakto talaga yung L15A sa City/Jazz.
