It's alright IRL. The audio of the video will emphasise the noise a bit too much. That said, the all-new Passat is quieter. I also have a POV video about it.

Had the car for 4 hours only. But it is around 5L/100 km on the highway. Not sure about the city consumption though. Check out spritmonitor.de which is a real-life consumption page.

Welcome to Estonia! This type of road is pretty uncommon here. Usually, it is a narrow road with minimal traffic in the countryside.

Fortunately, the spare wheel is available as an optional extra, in both space saver and full-size form. I also drove the new Skoda Superb which had the spacesaver.

Great question! The colour of ambient light is not configurable unfortunately. The only available colour is white. According to my local price list there are two types of ambient lighting. General ambient lighting in white comes only in Homura and Takumi Trims. Separate ambient light inside the front doors is included in Comfort & Sound package. I really suggest you to check out your local price list. Because the ambient light part is rather confusing. For example in the UK there's only one type of ambient lighting stated. In the Baltics there are additional ambient light written down and in the Germany it's even more specific.

In Europe there's only the hybrid version available which only comes in FWD form. 1.5 turbo AWD is available in Japan only.

It's not that bad IRL. The audio of the video doesn't do it justice. It's a rather pleasant noise. But true - it still could be quieter. I've driven plenty of Toyota hybrids and half of them are way noisier. The engine sound during full acceleration of the ES300h is a disaster and a dealbreaker, unfortunately.

You're the only Whiner in regard to this car.. And not Half as bright as you Think you are ~

Cheers!

Totally ok!

Probably. I'm so glad they are keeping it alive!

Cheers! Couldn't agree more! Plus Mazda seems to be rather underrated despite its efforts.

Exactly!

@@Specproof I thought it was the 194 AWD 😳🤷‍♂️👍 Thank you!!!

Haha! I knew that someone would notice it :D I'm sure you know but it's AC condensation.

Kiitos! You're too kind, it looks worse IRL. But it feels so nice despite ragged looks. Happy kilometres with the W221! In most aspects, the W221 is the peak modern S-class, at least in my book.

Cheers! That's not mine, I rented it via a Turo-like service. Unfortunately, this W220 is scrapped by now.

El motor es bastante confiable. Estoy seguro de que todavía puedes encontrar existencias nuevas y antiguas.

¡Guau! ¡eso es increíble!

Hi! They're not matrix. But yes they're adaptive.

Cheers! The second-gen C-HRs won't come with a regular sunroof. That said, the panorama roof is an optional extra for some trims. At least in the European market.

140cv or 200cv?

Sur la vidéo, on dirait vraiment que ça va exploser :D Gardez à l’esprit qu’il s’agissait de fortes accélérations uniquement pour la vidéo. Dans des conditions de vie normales, les niveaux de bruit sont totalement maîtrisés et c'est généralement un véhicule silencieux.

Is that 2.0 5cyl?

Cheers! It sure is beautiful! There's something magical about those 5-cylinder diesels.

@@robajz7502 Exactly!

Absolutley!

Suured tänud! Mul ülihea meel, et meeldib ja korda läheb :) Oleks vaid aega rohkem, toodaks ülevaatevideoid rohkemgi.

Thanks for a very insightful comment! As a Mazda fan, it's very sad to hear that. I can fully agree with the door and cardboard situation. I truly hope that Mazda will act and do something to eliminate those problems. It would be super nice to experience a 3.3L petrol someday. I'm not sure that Mazda will offer it in my region.

Cheers! It also drives beautifully :)

Thanks for the insightful comment - I really appreciate it! Mad respect for including the first-gen CLS in your top 3 MB list. What mods have you used for the CLS? Just a supercharger pulley or something more? I rarely watch my own content but seeing it about 3 years later is so funny! I speak so slowly and some pronunciations are so cringe. It really shines through that English isn't my native language. I do my best to improve!

@Specproof no mate I wasn't saying funny nor laughing about your pronunciation. I was trying to express that I was laughing at myself for misunderstanding the word you were saying. 🤣 Anyway... yes, pully upgrade, I've done custom forged piston/rods, stage 4 Vrp, rod bearing, 630cc fuel injection, camshaft VRP, exhaust/header system (GM), Weistec ECU,

The rule of thumb is to source the latest available vehicle. I personally don't like the styling of the facelift versions either. As far as I've heard/remembered, the M113 and M113K are the most trusty engines if you're looking for a pre-facelift version. M113 is the 5.0 306 PS V8 and the M113 is the 5.4 L AMG version of the M113. Read the forums and FB groups, the Internet is your friend.

Wow! It sounds pretty loaded then. The Harman Kardon system there Sounds surprisingly good considering its age. Enjoy and happy miles!

It sure is! I couldn't agree more, the SLS included!

The towbar seems to be a dealer-fitted option.

It sure is! And it also drives nicely!

Right on! That's a totally understandable reason. If you have decent tires fitted, you should be fine I suppose.

Great question! This video was produced a couple of years ago - so to be honest - I don't really remember. On the other hand, I would've remembered when it bothered me. It's alright I suppose.

Much obliged!

I'm super grateful for your inspiring comment! This CX-60 review took plenty of time to research and edit. Feels so nice when hard work pays off. Thank you very much :)

Nice! Indium Grey looks spectacular! Couldn't believe it has been 18 years already.

Inline-6

Haha! well spotted! To be honest they aren't that uncommon at all. Most of them are converted to LPG. F150s are way rarer than the Rams.

Cheers! Thanks for the uplifting feedback! I always promise to cut the reviews shorter but then I get carried away with stats etc. Viewers seem to like this very in-depth approach, so I probably won't change my style.

Nice! M272 is such a masterpiece! Enjoy the miles!

Wow! That's amazing! What's the milage at the moment?

Great question! In the case of new Honda hybrids, the gearbox situation is rather difficult to explain. They don't have a conventional transmission as such. There's a motor generator instead of a gearbox. I suggest you google it if you're interested.

100% agreed, nicely put!
