Possibly the tyres are brand new, need a few days to settle in.

Lock up clutch in all the gear from 8km/h onwards sounds so wrong... lol... lock up clutch is the clutch that locks up the impeller and turbine of the torque converter 2nd gear onwards. But some better torque converters are able to allow lock up clutch engagement at the end of the first gear speed difference between impeller and turbine 60% to 80% depending on design to exploit efficiency.

Hi Mr Khong, good stuff on the skills you've got.. enjoyed your videos all this while.. Just 1 question, How's the handling comparing this Mazda 3 2019 VS The Latest Corolla Altis 2019? Apparently, the Corolla has improved their chassis handling performance as it's rear suspension is now a double wishbone suspension. Just curious on the difference between this two. Cheers! =)

@YSKhongDriving

4 жыл бұрын

The Mazda 3 and the Corolla are both on a new chassis, and the results are interesting: the Mazda 3 handles very well, in a Sporty kind of way, while the Corolla handles well in a Comfort kind of way. Two similar results but each model has its own path and each model appeals to a different psyche or way of thinking, because of the overall package made up by the suspension, transmission and engine configurations. It is always about the package. A point to note is that the parameters can change if any one of the three parameters change. For example, a more powerful engine would make a difference to the model's appeal to buyers and totally change the demeanor and outlook. And thanks for being on our channel! Cheers too!
