first thank you Ridwan for letting me test it. please visit his page (link to ridwan hanif’s video: https://youtu.be/GPa8d6DEf-I) for a complete review…
many will ask, why test a 7 seater on the circuit? why not? we all know many of the previous Gen Veloz are being used to drive at higher speed and recklessly on the road… unfortunately, many involved in accidents because the car has limited safety features and driver’s aid…
we figured, we want to know if we drive on circuit hard, it could mimic the reckless driving on the road. we want to see how dangerous the car is…
verdict: amazing handling! very very very safe! you cannot turned off the safety driving aid even after you hold-press the traction control button off… i just dive into corners and throw the steering wheel around, the car never fail to activate the stability control and kept me in the correct line and reducing my speed at the same time
i could only managed to do 2:15.85 because i could not figure out how to drive around the system… however later on the evening, ichan managed to find a particularly smooth driving and bigger curves to avoid the safety features self activated… he clocked 1 second faster doing 2:14 👏👏
manual transmission would be faster by 3-4 seconds and 1-2 sec faster if we can turned the stability control off completely however that is not the purpose of this car, and
that requires experienced driver to do it right…
