Does that means if want better grip in wet and dry conditions, I have to sacrifice for noisier tyre?

Most certainly.

Ya, now that this is mention I notice when it rains, the raining sound is so distinct in comparison with my previous vehicle, Ford Spectron XLT. Guess darrentian nail it.

The roof is thin but I never considered the sound of rain to be excessive. In fact, I think it is the best amongst all MPVs at the same price point.

I can think of some popular B-segment sedans (City, Vios) that are sedans, costing the same as a Rondo but have milo tin roofs that sound twice as bad as the Rondo's.

Bro,
Can u share more on high FC.. as i found that Theta Rondo engine is good in FC..


Hi Sugen,

Not sure why my FC is high. In fact I asked Naza to check why so high FC during my 1000km service, they told me the computer indicates that everything is functioning properly. My best FC is 11+ liters/100km (mainly on highway) and my worst FC is 17+ liters/100km (city driving and car idling waiting for wife). My average FC is around 14 to 15+ liters/100km. Perhaps the traffic condition in JB is very bad and I need to cut down my trips to tebrau city!!

My ave FC is also about 14lit/100km. Penang Island also have bad traffic conditions. But dunno if the on-board computer also takes in idling into FC calculation?

Hi Buckeyes,
17+ liters is unusual. Mine had clock 32k km.. PG Island driver. 10.1L/100KM.. Each tank RM90 for sure can last 460-490KM.. Average is 470KM per tank..So is about 18-19 cents/KM. My route is alway smooth when go to work. But, heavy jam during after work. Sat & Sun is all TOWN/CITY drive. 5 of my friends is driving Rondo in PG.. One of it who suffer this bad FC like you... heard from him is getting better.. But he still not satisfy with 22-24 cents /KM
