thanks

Kelangan siguro, mag-karoon na ng EB yung mga new Mirage owners, para magkaroon ng actual comparison.

Every vehicle that I've driven (assuming proper alignment) goes back to the center position only when moving. Ganun talaga, your steering caster angle pulls your wheels back straight when the car is moving. Works exactly the same as shopping cart wheels.

hi sir i would like to confirm if power steering works this way for Mirage as mentioned above? thanks

*mitsumirage1979: It's not the power steering per se but simply how the steering geometry is constructed in nearly all cars. Same with my Mirage.

power steering helps make steering light for the driver, thats all it do, its not responsible for returning the steering wheel to center position

kahit ang jeep na PAWIS steering babalik sa sentro kapag umarangkada ka na pasulong kahit bitawan mo ang manibela

kag paatras naman ang andar mo kelangan mo talaga tulungan ibalik yun manibela sa sentro, mas delikado kung hindi

mapa pawis steering yan o power steering iisa lang yan sir lalo na pag binigyan mo ng load talagang back to normal straight yan maski bitiwan mo pa steering mo,depende na lang kung mag u turn ka sabay hinto kasi may paparating eh

Anyway, aside sa FC. Happy naman ako Mirage. Masyado lang naging mataas ang expectations pagdating sa fuel economy nya.

Maraming variables kasi ang fuel consumption. So ganito na lang ang tanong ko to get a ballpark figure.

So gawin natin constant ang driver at ang driving route (sort of).

Ano yong current FC mo ngayon sa Mirage?

Ano ang dati mong ride o other ride at ano yong FC mo?

Kasi ako ay home to work to home lang ang daily routine covering a total of 75 Km per day
Ito ang data points ko.
1.6L Honda Civic M/T VTi Gas = 12 Km/L
2.0L Toyota Innova M/T Gas = 11 Km/L
1.6L Hyundai Matrix M/T Gas = 10.5 Km/L

If I can get 16 Km/L sa Mirage, happy na ako.
I don't race and I don't date anyone except my wife.
I just want to go to work and home safely and comfortably.

lahat ng manibela bumabalik. kahit sa matigas na steering wheel ng montero. tsaka wala namang sasakyan na babalik ang steering magisa if not moving

Kaya yun mag less metal friction , car weight at air drag mas fuel efficient sila. Kaya yun malalaking oto gas gasler kasi mabibigat , may air drag at malaki metal friction sa engine.Kung ma de design mo yun 4 cylinders with less metal friction , less air drag and less car weigth , panalo yun lahat ng energy coming from gasoline converted sa distance travel yan .Kasi less friction.

tama ka kung ikaw lang ang may karapatang gumamit ng kalye at parati maluwag ang kalye para sa iyo

there is a lone micro-compact car that has 4cylinders, its chevy sparks, why dont you get it instead of the mirage?

that's a good idea. mas maganda sana pag may ibang subcompact na car. para mas ma-compare
