    And if you're referring to the 2.0V CVT Altis, that accelerates faster than most other 2-liter compacts because it's the lightest. Get your facts straight.
    yan accent mo saka Altis mo, sa tingin ko pag pinanlaban yan sa Getz 1.5 Crdi M/T namin, iwan yan

    Ha! may 2.0 explorer na ba? Alam ko 3.5 yan baka di makaakyat yan sa laki ng body ng explorer...

    Well I'd choose explorer, ang layo ng arrive nya sa santafe... pag pinarada mo side by side yung santafe parang general manager ng isang company while the other is the owner.

    Sa Dami ng burloloy nyan explorer, that car is a lover is not a fighter. pano pa kaya pag nkabili ako ako ng SorentoR na M/t bare, no sidesteps, no roofrails, not even mudguards. Sa VGT SF Lang no match na sya, pano pa kaya sa E-VGT. Pampapogi n LNG kse, eh kaya Lang ang tanong pano pag baba sa sasakyan, usually nakikita ko sporting expensive cars eh wearing machine-washed loose clothes at mataba - all the rich food can buy.

    Kaya Madaming cougars ngaun na asawa ng owner pinagnanasahan ang fit and fighter managers nila, Minsan nga kargador body driver - sinisimplehan pa.

    Hindi naman mabigat ang borloloy eh. Wala pang 50 kg nadadagdag nun on the average.

    Kaya mabilis yung SF mo, kasi fit ka. 50 kg lighter na kagad yung SF. Parang Santa Fe Superlegerra kumbaga.

    hehehe I really don't care if the accent is faster than the expedition or explorer. In the end, I'm very comfortable inside the expedition and we didn't buy an expedition to race with other cars

    tama yan lang talaga ang purpose ng Expeds and Explorer. yun Explorer ng dad ko hiram ko lang yan kung gusto relaxed driver sa NLEX tapos with open rooftop. sarap cruising breezing lang.

    kaya wag na makipag-karera pa sa amin mga naka Hyundai / Kia CRDis. you cant have the best of both world noh

    A stock 2.5 GTV Montero takes 11.5 seconds to hit 100 km/h. A stock Corolla 2.0 CVT is much faster. And it's not speed limited to 180 km/h, either. The review numbers were backed up by PCOTY results.

    The Honda K20 is much more powerful, but limited by the traditional transmission. Better top end, but since it won't chirp the tires, the launch is more laid-back. But if we're talking manual transmissions, the K20 Civic FD with an MT will beat the pants off of everything else... badly. Haven't timed it, but comparing how quickly it launches versus a Focus TDCi (8.3 seconds 0-100), I'd say it's a high- to mid- 7 second car...

    An Accent is quicker from a roll than most automatic 2.0s, but 100 hp is 100 hp. over 80 km/h, the Accent runs out of puff. It may seem like a rocket in traffic, but that's the only place it's a rocket. Get out on the highway and its shortcomings become pretty obvious.

    180 km/h is nothing. Most 2.0 MTs can hit 210 km/h. Like I said... 100 hp is still 100 hp. And there's no way to make a car with the frontal area of the Accent hit 210 km/h with that little power. You need at least 130 hp to hit 200, and around 150 to hit 210 (the Focus TDCi can barely hit 210 in stock form... and that has about 150-155 bhp on overboost). To pass 220, you need around 160 hp.

    An Expedition or an Explorer, despite the power, cannot go faster than 180 km/h because they're SUVs. As such, they're equipped with a 180 km/h speed limiter to keep owners from dying when a tire disintegrates at 200 km/h. With the power of the Explorer, 220-240 km/h should be a breeze.

    Just wondering how a tuned Accent CRDi will do though? A simple chip and filter mod should be able to liberate 20-30 horses more from the 110hp engine.

    So far the only matic car I've encountered and personally ridden in that is capable of chirping its tires on takeoff is our 3.0V6 Accord, and that takes pretty much flooring the throttle on takeoff to achieve. Manual car that can chirp the tires? Kahit Revo diesel namin kaya.
