    Hi thanks for the review, have you had any issues with the car? I have heard there are issues with the DCT transmission. Also is there a way to test the life of the battery when shopping for a used one?

      @Drivediscoveryx  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey thanks for watching and finding this video interesting. I didn’t had any issues with transmission, regarding battery life I don’t think we can check when shopping used car always make sure it’s fresh import with service history and low kms on the road .. take a test drive of same vehicle you are purchasing for 20 minutes and asking for 3 to 6 months warranty after sales

      You can easily use your hybrid car which is 70000 kms to 240000kms or upto 15 years from year of manufacture whichever comes first .Always buy cars 2016 & above and less driven kms , if you want to use for long run.

      Honda Fit Hybrid uses an Earth Dreams 1.5-liter Atkinson cycle DOHC i-VTEC engine paired with a 7-speed DCT (dual-clutch transmission) and an internal high-output motor, IPU (Intelligent Power Unit) with lithium-ion battery, electric servo braking system with variable servo ratio control.
      The Aqua's 1.5-litre engine is mated to a CVT gearbox and utilises Toyotas third-generation hybrid synergy Drive system with a small 0.9 kWh nickel-metal hydride technology battery

    Hi Benoy how is the car for long drives? did you any time feel loss of power? how is it while you try to accelerate or overtake?

    • @Drivediscoveryx
      @Drivediscoveryx  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      For long drives it’s pretty smooth and comfortable even for rear passengers spacious to carry luggage for small family trips Driver needs to attach a neck pillow or support as seats & neck rest are not that comfortable but if you take breaks between every 100 or 150 kms not a problem . As we need to maintain speed limit 100 kmph (here in New Zealand )it is pretty decent to drive only problem you face is uphill as you feel lack of power and need to accelerate . For normal roads it’s pretty decent even to overtake . It’s decent as a hybrid hatchback. But if you are frequently do long drives better go for SUV
