I'm driving a 2017 Scirocco. The trip computer screen always shows the speed in miles per hour in the bottom right corner. Does anyone know how to switch it back to kilometers?

At 120 miles per hour on the highway, what is the RPM for the GA6?

The engine warning light came on after driving over 10,000 kilometers, right when it was time for maintenance. The service station checked and found the gas cap wasn't properly sealed, and they reset the computer. However, the yellow light came back on in less than half a month. The service station is too far away, and I don't have time to go there. Does anyone know what the problem might be? Any help would be appreciated.

Does this car have good off-road capabilities, suitable for road trips? The back seat seems really spacious, good for sleeping, right? I'm not too worried about fuel consumption since it's American, as long as it's not too bad. I'm just concerned that besides being big, it won't be like a car costing around a hundred thousand [facepalm][facepalm] How's the driving experience and all that?

After 8 years with my old petrol car, it started burning oil, and I noticed a lot of people around me were switching to electric vehicles. That got me thinking. I was originally planning to get the top-spec Tank 300 (Menglong), and during the National Day holiday I went for a test drive — it met my expectations.On the way back, I stopped by a Jetour dealership and saw the T2. My daughter instantly fell in love with the exterior and interior — it completely overshadowed the Menglong in her eyes. Looks clearly played a big role, and after a test drive, it felt good enough. Since I don’t really need 4WD for daily driving, I booked it right away. Looking back now, I do wish I had waited for the 4WD version — a bit more power would’ve been nice.For this type of vehicle, electric power saves a lot. For daily use, my cost is just around 0.10 AED/km (charging at home on off-peak rates of 3.3 AED/kWh). My daily round-trip to work is under 20 km, so I only charge every four days, when the battery hits around 20%.For long-distance trips, I don’t bother with charging — it’s too much hassle. I just set the car to preserve 60% battery and drive on petrol. Even if fuel consumption is slightly higher, it’s fine since I only do a few road trips per year.The car is heavy and feels solid on the road. Acceleration is decent, but the 4WD version definitely would’ve offered better power and confidence. I’ve had the car for over half a year now. So far, the only issue has been a slight noise from the steering system — which was fixed. Other than that, no major problems. Buying a car always involves a bit of luck anyway.The biggest downside is the driver assistance system — it lags behind the competition. The infotainment system has improved a bit with the latest 4.11 update, but it still has room for improvement.Overall, I’m quite satisfied. Compared to many newer EV startups, Chery is an established brand. The lifetime warranty adds a lot of peace of mind, especially on the powertrain and electric components.

I bought the full-option 600 km version of the electric EZ6, and honestly, I’m very satisfied with it. It really drives like a petrol car — the transition was easy, and I didn’t feel much difference. I only use it in the city, and so far, it’s averaging around 11.3 kWh per 100 km, which is excellent. The car is rear-wheel drive with an impressively tuned suspension. Cornering at 60–80 km/h feels smooth and stable — it really grips the road, making it perfect for mountain roads. I honestly wouldn’t recommend test driving it unless you’re ready to buy — it’s that convincing! The interior is elegant, with 14 speakers and great sound quality. However, one small issue: there’s no light on the vanity mirror, which can be a bit annoying. After installing the rear spoiler, I noticed what seemed like improved efficiency — maybe due to better aerodynamics, or maybe just my imagination. In eco mode, the car can get close to 600 km of range in the city — without using the A/C. In summer with A/C on, it drops to around 550 km. If you switch to sport mode and drive over 100 km/h, the consumption can go over 15 kWh per 100 km. One downside is the limited infotainment system — despite the great sound system, you’re mostly stuck with music. Also, some settings have to be manually re-enabled every time you start the car — probably for safety reasons. As for comfort, my family loves it — especially the kids in the back. The wireless phone charger works perfectly, and Bluetooth connects quickly. The trunk is very spacious, and there’s even extra storage under the hood, which is great. I take good care of the car — I always use a car cover when parking outside, and the interior really gives off a premium feel. During the day, I try to save energy by turning off unnecessary lights and filters. One feature I really love is the remote parking after getting out — it’s super accurate and genuinely useful. Honestly, it’s a great car and definitely worth test driving if you’re considering an EV.

Ride Comfort: The car feels very stable at high speeds, which gives you a real sense of safety — especially thanks to the solid chassis. However, the seats are a bit firm, and on long trips, they can start to get uncomfortable. Fuel Range: On a full tank, I’ve managed around 650 km on the highway. In summer, or when the car is fully loaded with the A/C running, that drops to about 500 km. In the city, I usually get around 400 km per tank. With current fuel prices (I always fill up with 95), it basically costs me around AED 1 per kilometer. Performance: This is the part I really want to talk about — and complain a bit. With ECO mode turned off, the initial power off the line is decent, but that’s about it. Once you get moving, the car starts to feel like it’s struggling — like a small engine pulling a heavy body. If you don’t mind the loud engine noise, you might get a bit of excitement, but realistically, you’re running close to 4000 RPM for that. Overtaking at 120 km/h is tough; the acceleration just doesn’t keep up, and it feels risky. That said, I have to give credit to the car’s off-road capabilities — it handles rough or muddy roads surprisingly well and won’t leave you stuck.

I recently tried out the new Kia K3, and honestly, the exterior design hasn’t changed much from the previous model. It still carries Kia’s signature styling, especially with the signature “tiger nose” grille, which is now split into two sections. The upper part is narrow with a honeycomb pattern, connected to sharp-looking headlights with LED strips shaped like arrows — a sporty and stylish touch. The lower grille is trapezoidal, which makes the front look wider, and there are air vents on each side that add an aggressive edge. From the side, the car looks clean and modern with blacked-out side mirrors and window trim. The wheels have a blade-like design — sharp and eye-catching. At the rear, there’s a subtle black ducktail spoiler and a full-width LED light bar connected by a red strip — a nice upgrade over the previous split taillights. Inside, it has a sleek, all-black interior that feels refined and well put together. It features a sporty flat-bottom steering wheel, a fully digital instrument cluster, and a floating infotainment screen. The screen itself looks simple but functions well and is easy to use. The seats are well-stitched with ventilation holes in the backrest, which really help in hot weather, and they’re quite comfortable overall. The rear seat space is generous — I had around 2 to 3 fists of legroom, and the floor is nearly flat, so even three people in the back won’t feel cramped. The rear seats offer good support too, with a deep cushion that helps you find a comfortable position easily. The model I drove had a 1.4L turbo engine, which is noticeably better than previous versions, paired with a 7-speed DCT. Acceleration between 30–80 km/h is solid, and the throttle responds quickly. After 90 km/h, there's a slight delay before the full power kicks in. Braking is smooth and confident at high speeds, but at low speeds, the pedal feels a bit soft at first — takes a little getting used to. Overall, it's a comfortable and enjoyable car to drive, and I think it’s a great option for anyone looking for a sporty yet practical daily car.

I bought the new Toyota Corolla 1.2T. The engine has 116 horsepower—not super powerful, but its performance is better than I expected, especially when you push it. The CVT gearbox is smooth, though there are occasional slight jerks. In terms of comfort, it’s pretty good. The suspension absorbs big bumps well, but you do feel the smaller ones a bit. The driving is stable, the steering is light and responsive, and the brakes are solid. Wind noise is well-insulated, but tire noise becomes very noticeable at high speeds. The interior feels a bit outdated, with lots of plastic materials. The screen is weak, runs the old system, and is barely backlit. Front space is fine, but the back is a bit cramped. The trunk has a decent amount of space. It comes with a full set of safety features, but no parking sensors! The bottom line? It’s a practical, reliable car—great for people who aren’t looking for fancy tech but want something dependable and easy to drive.

Look, I'm one of those people who did a lot of research before buying a car. I tried everything from the Geely StarRay to the Nissan Sentra and the Volkswagen Jetta. But in the end, I went back to the classics and chose the 2021 Toyota Corolla 1.2T Plus—because, quite simply, it doesn't come with problems, and that's the most important thing for someone in their 30s with a job, a home, and responsibilities. I bought it with a few extras thrown in, like LED headlights, parking sensors, window tinting, floor mats, and 7 free maintenance services. The car won't blow your mind or steal your heart, but it’ll stick with you and do its job. It's comfortable, smooth, has solid suspension, and its performance is more than enough for daily drives—you don’t need to fly. The interior is simple but comfy. The console doesn’t have CarPlay, but it's not the end of the world—I just connect it via Wi-Fi and that’s it. Fuel consumption is around 6.3L per 100 km, and I drive calmly. In short, the Corolla isn’t the best car in everything, but it's probably the one with the least headaches—and that matters more than fancy specs or a big screen.

I was looking for a good sedan, and I went through the usual headache of choices like anyone else. I looked at the Sentra and the Civic—each had something I liked, but also something that made me hesitant. The Sentra felt a bit too quiet for me—I’m still young—and while the Civic was tempting, I just couldn't fully buy into it. I randomly walked into a Toyota showroom, and right there in front of me was the Corolla. I took it for a test drive, and honestly, the sales team was incredibly polite and respectful—unlike the staff I’d dealt with at other dealerships. In the end, I was convinced and bought the hybrid Corolla. After a year of use, the car has been comfortable and smooth to drive, with no major issues. But it’s not without its annoyances—like the sluggish, outdated screen and the old-school head unit, so I replaced them. Even the seats and the center armrest would get dirty easily, so I had them covered in leather. The headlights were halogen, so I swapped them for LEDs. The horn also sounded weak, so I changed that too. In terms of performance, it's decent—not a rocket, but more than enough for daily commutes. At speeds over 120 km/h, the car felt a bit floaty, so I upgraded the wheels and tires from 16" to 17", which really improved its stability. The most impressive thing, hands down, has been the fuel consumption—it once dropped to 3.9L/100km! But after I accidentally reset the system, it now reads 5.3 and I can't figure out how to get it back. Space-wise, it's fine—comfortable up front, and okay for two people in the back, but three will feel cramped. The one thing that really bugs me is the A/C, especially for rear passengers. There aren’t effective rear vents, and airflow is a bit weak during summer. I enjoy tweaking my car, so I’ve done a lot of modifications—brakes, tires, wheels, lights, sound system, and a few small accessories. Overall, though, I’m satisfied. My advice for anyone planning to buy one: don't go for it just because everyone else is. Buy it because you’re personally convinced. Compare prices and features carefully. At the end of the day, the Corolla is a solid, respectable car. It won’t let you down, but it’s not perfect—there are things that need a bit of work, depending on your preferences and how willing you are to spend a little more after buying it.
