maniac Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Really :omg: But honda camry is symbol of high class in India' date= why dont you shift to INDIA :isalute: It is Toyota Camry-Still a middle class vehicle. Same with most Honda cars like Civic and CRV
Holysmoke Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 VW 'look' like a strong car' date=' but it doesn't. I got a chance to see a crashed VW Passat. They have this hollow body panel technology, which gives the car more stability and milage. But they suck at safety. According to my law college friend, nearly 40% of the people get third degree sprains or fractures and 25% are fatal. That's 65%, where the car doesn't have protection. I think our govt will mandate crash test for all the cars in near future.[/quote'] Not really. The fact that the newer cars get "crushed" is due to the crumple zones that are present. Think about it this way.. If you have an accident in a vento vs an ambassador, you're far safer in the vento because the car will absorb the impact in the crumple zones and transfer very little to the cabin and hence the passenger. The ambassador on the other hand will transfer all the impact onto the passenger, and hence look rock solid after the accident.
Holysmoke Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Yep Coimbatore - I can't go there to race :(( I have an i20 and I seriously doubt it can go up to 170. Maybe the diesel but def not the petrol. If you did take it that high... Chill out bro that car doesn't have the dynamics to support that. The highest ive gone is 220. Also taken the superb to 200 on the expressway. It did it easily. I had a previous gen accord which I took to 200 as well but it was maxxing out at that.
Holysmoke Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Really :omg: But honda camry is symbol of high class in India' date=' why dont you shift to INDIA :isalute:[/quote'] I want a Honda Camry :hehe:

Midfielder Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 I drive a beat up volvo. Decent car but not great. Fiat sucks.

But the original Premier president padmini is based on Italian D1100 design, most are imported. That model is much safer. My uncle escaped with a mild injury after a terrible accident 10 yrs back. He was driving around 90kmph. PAL padmini after 80s are more or less mini ambassadors. The difference is the newer cars tend to crumble at 60kmph accidents and are fatal at 80 to 100kmph impacts. The Swifts, sx4s and vernas are the worst offenders.
Detonator Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 :poink: Honda is symbol of American middle class.....It is equvivalent of owning a Bajaj Chetak here :isalute: Still rich by indian standards. :beee: I thought BMW and Benz is the middle class. Rich have Sports cars and super cars. :hmmm:
