Penggunaan Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) yang betul

Situasi: Anda memandu seperti biasa dalam keadaan trafik sederhana. Tiba-tiba, kotak terjatuh dari belakang lori di hadapan anda. Refleks semulajadi anda mula bertindak, anda pun menekan brek sepenuh hati, tapi anda sedar yang kereta takkan sempat berhenti.

How to properly use Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)

You're driving in traffic, minding your own business when suddenly a box falls out of the lorry in front of you. Reflexes take over, you brake hard, but realise you can't stop in time. You then swerve to avoid the rogue box. That evasive action wouldn't have been possible if your car wasn't equipped with Anti-lock Braking System, (ABS). Even though many, if not most new cars are now equipped with ABS, most car owners don't know how it works or how it benefits them. I've had friends come to me an

You can’t turn off Eco Mode on the Perodua Myvi because…

It doesn’t have one. The new Perodua Myvi does not come with an active ‘Eco Mode’ which alters the powertrain to be more fuel-efficient. Unlike the ‘Eco Mode’ you find in Hondas, Toyotas and BMWs which changes the transmission and engine mapping, the Perodua Myvi only has an Eco indicator. What Eco indicator does is tell you whether you’re driving in a fuel-efficient manner. It takes into account your speed, throttle input and the gear selected to determine whether you’re driving efficiently or

New Proton Iriz - Is It Finally A Better Car Than The Perodua Myvi?

The Proton Iriz was conceived back in 2014 as Proton’s effort to counter the ever-popular Perodua Myvi. Back then, the Iriz offered considerably more safety equipment than the Perodua Myvi, but response from the market remained lukewarm at best. Proton updated the Iriz a couple of times, with the latest update being introduced earlier this year. Five variants are available in total, up from the four variants from the 2017 update.

FAQ: Is auto start-stop bad for your car?

Auto Start-Stop is a feature most of us despise. Cars like the Perodua Myvi and Perodua Bezza have this feature. With its jerky starts, a simple manoeuvre like the three-point-turn feels clumsy and unfamiliar. And with a belt-driven compressor, cool air stops blowing when the feature kicks in. The simple solution for most of us then, is to just turn it off. While some people would rather have sweaty pits to save the environment, the majority couldn’t be arsed to have the engine stopping and star

Auto Start-Stop ialah ciri pada kereta yang tidak digemari ramai. Kereta seperti Perodua Myvi dan Perodua Bezza didatangkan dengan kelengkapan ini. Dengan permulaannya yang tersentak-sentak, pergerakan mudah seperti pusingan tiga-titik terasa kekok dan kurang selesa. Ditambah pula dengan kompresornya yang ‘belt-driven’, udara sejuk terhenti apabila kelengkapan ini mula berfungsi. Penyelesaian mudah bagi kebanyakan orang ialah; hanya matikannya.
