I drove a Rush 4WD in Japan ard March this year.....

 

Drove along a highway & up a mountain.....

 

Highway cruising with only 2 pax @ 100~120 is ok.... but when it goes faster.... it become a bit unstable due to the higher CG.

 

It handle better when it is fully loaded with 4 pax & some personal stuffs @ the back.....

 

This car is not built for u to chiong..... try to go off road.... tats when this mini SUV perform up to ur expectation

2. Rush NOT designed to RUSH or CHEONG

3. You bought the WRONG car

Aiya whatever car with jacked up ride height will suffer interms of handling. The weight/centre of gravity of the vehicle is the important factor affecting the handling and cornering.

 

Driving at high speed is not recommended especially travelling up north as cross-wind will most likely topple your vehicle.Remember the guy who's off-roader toppled in M'sia on his way to aid the tsunami thing. He didn't make it there.

 

Just look at F1 racing, to go fast body of the vehicle have to be as close to the ground as possible. Passenger cars cannot do that bcos of speed humps and MSCP.

 

Looks like u shouldn't have got a soft roader. But u can lower the ride height since u dun really go off roading in S'pore. Rush cannot go serious off road anyway. [:/]

[laugh] I agree. But not many ppl can afford cars like a Range Rover or a Discovery.

 

I recently saw an Audi Q7 4.2L Quattro on the road. What an enormous/long vehicle! Parking will be an issue definitely. I tot the Tourag is big but this one is rediculous. [:|]

 

Rich ppl dun ask whether their car can cheong or not, or can park or not, big big can liao. [:p]

actually Rush is a compact SUV. i think the direct competition will be the jimny.

like someone else mentioned earlier, SUVs arent design for cheonging. SUVs (with 4WD) are for soft off-roading. Only REAL SUVs (such as Jeep Cherokee etc) are designed for all-terrain hard-core off-roading.
