Hatchbacks

Scania N113CRB luver SG

Greetings to all .

I just would like to ask 2 question . Are hatchbacks suitable for long distance travel? Such as from SG to M'sia (Genting) ?

Also, which hatchbacks do you guys recommend , a hatchback that have ample engine power , good fuel economy and spacious? Smile

For a good powered hatchback with relatively efficient fuel ratio should be Honda Jazz, followed by Mitsubishi Colt and Suzuki Swift...

Me won't even think of driving a hatchback all the way up north to Genting...

Hmmm... thx ! Very Happy

I've sat on a Honda Jazz before , but the car is "zeng" one . Lol ... My cousin go zeng it , then become sporty , altho gearbox is still auto . But overall performance is superb.

Reason being too light ? Or suspension sucks?

So ... What kind of cars are more suitable for driving up to genting?

dork3d SG

Hatchback is not good for long distance endurance driving... And most suspensions for hatchbacks are soft... And been light, it would be hard to handle especially for the incremental 15 degrees to 25 degrees slope driving and sharp turns at Genting just after Awana Hotel...

For driving distance up north and able to endure the engine strain along the way, me think a 1.6 sedan or SUV or MPV would be better to suit...

I've ridden on a MPV to malacca before and i can say its quite a bumpy ride, but the engine performance is superb . Its a Honda Stream (old version) . Not sure about fuel economy . Somemore at that time the car was carrying more than 5 people . Laughing

Try the Satria Neo (Manual) up and down, you will definately love the handling.

dork3d SG

VW Golf is a reliable hatchback... Only turn-off is the price of the car...
