You spoke about the gears not being good to give you that extra push to overtake however my gear has a manual option where you L is and I can paddle shift to change gear up to 6 😉.
Great review bro, I drive the manual of this GLX,i must say this car is a no brainer! It's full of extras,it looks classy inside and out,drives comfortably it's economical but on the downside...tank size is too small, then economy defeats the purpose, the comfy ride is to bouncy and responsive on uneven roads, turning at high speeds is wooshy, the engine noise is high they need better gearboxes in the future for better manners.
Can you please explain what the 4 gear automatic means? What makes it different/bad? I saw someone say they recommend manual and they’re not the first and it’s making me panic cos I only want to drive auto cars
I actually did explain how it works on the Suzuki Fronx review, so it has 4 forward gears (instead of 5 or 6) the bad thing about that is that when you’re in the 4th gear it feels like there should be another gear, but it counteracts that by having an overdrive button on the gear knob, which simulates the 5th gear, it however doesn’t have much torque, so over taking might be challenging,
@@Cassiegh Go for a test drive of both manual and auto, the manual just gives more control and possibly keeps revs a bit low. For most people the 4 speed auto is perfect, especially on these small engines not designed for sporty performance, some reviewers are just repeating what other reviewers are saying.
I drive the GL Manual 2024. Honestly the best car in its segment. Fuel consumption is great! Theres great Tech even in the base model I drive (Android auto, electic windows etc.)😂 Personally I would suggest getting the manual transmission. I cant imagine driving the 4 speed auto (I have a heavy foot)
It’s actually not bad, however the car is really not punchy, it doesn’t have pace, it’s not for a person who’s always in a rush, the efficiency is really good though 💯
It’s basically a Baleno underneath not a Grand vitara. Vitaras are a bit bigger than the fronx you can consider the Fronx as a Baleno on steriods. I personally feel like it’s not worth the money rather buy a Baleno and save some money cause a lot of cost cutting has been made on this car.
Let me tell you why paddle shifters are needed on an auto or dsg. When you going downhill and you brake to keep to the speed limit the car starts changing down because it thinks you coming to a stop so before you know it you in 3rd gear which is not ideal going downhill. On the dsg you flick the paddles till its in 7th gear then you can hold the speed going downhill without the car changing down
