The lowest possible fuel economy for my Yaris 1.5

The lowest possible fuel economy for my Yaris 1.5

So I achieved 4.6L/100KM today while driving on N5 today. I wasn't going above 85KM/h so many speedcams on the road.

This fuel economy translates to ~22km/L (actually it is even more than that as i have replaced the tyres and itbhas 7.35% radial error) which is more than Alto VXL AGS.

Just the thing I wanted to share.

Honda Pridor: 6 Months Review

Hi! I have been using Honda Pridor since September 2025. Here are all the pros and cons that I have faced. It’s a 2024 Model and the Mileage is 12000KM when I bought it.

Let’s discuss seat. It’s fairly comfortable not that comfortable as of YBR but many times better than CD 70.

The kick is harder if you are habitual to kick firmly like CD 70. The kick needs a time. If you kick it without giving proper time, it backs off.

I have never faced any difficulty regarding the shifting of gears. I can easily shift up or down. Rider just has to make sure it is shifting at proper speeds. Since its gear ratio is low so the bike needs an early shifting in the first 3 gears. That’s what I have observed, I might be wrong in it.

The bike is extremely comfortable at 50km/hr. 60 is comfortably but with minute vibrations. After 60, the vibrations are significant.

Let’s discuss shocks. The shocks’ absorption impact is the same as of CD 70. However, due to large travel time, you feel a little comfort on pits and bumps. These shocks are not designed to be ridden like YBR and GS 150 at high speeds. So, you have to stop and pass the bump at the same speed as you do on CD 70.

Let’s discuss pick up. As far as the pick up is concerned, it has good acceleration. If you come from CD 70, you definitely enjoy the initial acceleration. I have tried GD 110s. Didn’t like the initial pickup.

Let’s discuss brakes. The front brake is harder to apply as compared to 70cc however the stopping power is good. The back brake is good too. But keep in mind that it is heavier than CD 70 and needs more time to stop. But with proper functioning leather and good tire tread, you can significantly reduce the stopping time.

The most observed drawback of Pridor is that when you apply brakes the back tire skids. It skids no matter what. The tires with poor tread the skid is a must. While the new tires significantly reduce that. However, it still exists during rainy days or other harsh conditions.

Coming to chassis. The chassis is strong enough. That is one of the reasons for Pridor to be heavier. However, it can handle large amount of weight because of this as this model is based on Honda Deluxe chassis.

Coming to any noise, I did not hear any noise till now. No engine noise, no heating issue etc.

The maximum speed that I have got from it is 90km/hr. The mileage is 50km/Ltr with 60km/hr avg speed. I don’t monitor very keenly so the average can be 55km/Ltr too. I tune that up at 2000 KMs from dealership and change oil on 800 KM. It’s because in my opinion Atlas Honda’s oil is not too good. Moreover, I have also tested at 700 KM by asking mechanic that is the oil fine. He told no. It needs to be replaced. So, prevention is better.

Moving on to front headlight and meter, the lights have improved since early 2012s models but not that much effective. You need to have a separate led.

However, one drawback is that you cannot install a bigger battery as the Pridor has small Alternator which is the device that charges battery. The bigger battery will eventually drain.

Morning Kick Start. A good condition with properly tuned Pridor needs to be revved up for 30 secs manually in the morning. After this, it won’t be turned off. It will start without even revving in the first kick.

For all of you who need a good bike in a significantly low budget, that’s a way to go. Not a bad purchase but still it’s not a great too.

Help Required (JDM Car Purchase)

Help Required (JDM Car Purchase)

I'm looking for an Aqua & every seller's demand is almost the same no matter the mileage & condition. So help me sort out the car that's worth the money. The things that confuse me the most are first off auction sheets cuz people would clearly present the R grade & demand the same price as of a 4 grade vehicle. Secondly how much does the pre-import damage affect the Pakistani prices. Thirdly what about the local pakistani auctions like custom auction, port auctions. Are the worth the same price as of normal import aswell or above/less the normal prices. Additionally what should my priority be? An import that had more/less 100k driven in japan or a low mileage but mostly driven in Pakistan?

Your guidance would be appreciated & also do mention any importing thing that I might have missed in my queries which might be instrumental to my buying decision. Cheers!

Oshan x7 or chery tiggo 8 pro

Hi everyone, I am confused between these 2 cars(used), my budget is around 80-85lac.

These are my requirements

  1. Good quality

  2. Comfort

  3. Reliable

  4. Parts availability

I will be keeping the car for a long time, so resale is not my concern.

If anyone can share their experience, like issues or anything related to these cars, that would be helpful.

Suzuki Ciaz 2017

So I bought my first car a couple of months ago. it is a Suzuki Ciaz 2017 AT 105k driven for 29 lacs. No doubt it's an amazing car as compared to other sedans in this category. One thing that I did not pay much attention to while buying (since I am a noob) that it's 5th owner now.

My question is, given the low resale and ownership status, would it sell? Everyone around me is saying that I made a bad deal and it's not gonna sell now.

Diahatsu Mira GSA III

Assalam o Alaikum dear colleagues,

Need to buy Diahatsu Mira eS latest shape GSA III in low mileage in 30-35 lacs budget. G version is a must so that i can adjust the seat height and adjust the steering height as well.

Looked at Pakwheels but couldn't find a good one. Can you suggest trustable car dealers in Rawalpindi or Islamabad for this car. Or anyone who can guide me to self import one from Japan. Or should i request my neighbor uncle, he has his son-in-law in Japan doing this business ?

I have a month's time to buy this before my leave expires.

Anyone who can genuinely guide. I will be grateful.

Regards

45 LACS - TWO CARS (Suggest)

Hey Guys I need honest suggestions. Is there a possibility I can find to purchase two cars that can complete my requirements:

  1. Daily Driven: (18-30KM/L) Average Required Car. Be it 660c, but is low maintenance, amazing sound systems and overall great in all features including safety.

Something Like Daihatsu Mira.

  1. Big Sedan/ Hatchback with Ample space, Shashka, Comfort long Drives/Cruise Cars, especially driven on occasions and allows great drive experience and thrill.

---

In both cases, I am looking for vehicle with 0 work when buy and drive because honestly I want to enjoy the vehicle.

It's Preferred but not necessary, Japanese import vehicle would be great due to safety and reliability. and I could find latest year models that satisfies my ego of relatively newer / less used car.

"Thank you for your attention to this matter"
