I was wondering that. Didnt know they did this with a CVT. Ive had Subaru CVT and driven eCVT with Toyota. Would be interesting to know the setup here.

@@oddities-whatnot probably Nissan / Renault box , I’m waiting for mine coming , ordered mid Nov last year , dealer said it would be mid March then mid April , no word mid April so phoned dealer and was told probably about end of May , long wait for auto box models 😮

Ajută la rularea pe suprafețe cu aderență redusă, când nu ai padele pe volan pentru a obține frâna de motor. Crește turația motorului la viteze mici și oferă o accelerare mai liniară. Cred că vine de la "low speed".

In town area without traffic jam it can stay below 8l / 100 km ? Smooth ride 3~ 3.5k rpm max at accelerations.

@@przemysawolchowik375 Yes, In town driving it can stay below 8L / 100 km, with relaxed acceleration/braking, take advantage of the car's inertia, keep the start/stop system on, perform all scheduled services on time. I also try to avoid short car trips (< 5 km) in cold weather, as much as possible, check my tyre pressure every 3 months, and remove unnecessary items from the trunk to reduce weight and avoid driving in heavy traffic whenever possible. If we try all these, then achieving even 7 L / 100 km in town is possible.

Thank you, made the edit, so it seems X-tronic makes Dacia more expensive if there's manual ones only haha.

It's true that in most cases awd is only on paper, for me the biggest disappointment was the interior, it looks and feels solid, but still old fashioned for that price.

​@@NRJDrive Yeah the specked up version are really expensive for a Yaris. Just did a configuration at Toyota Hungary's website. The highest trim with a couple of extras almost cost the same as the GR Yaris base version :DDD Are you fucking kidding me? Anyways, still the sheeps will buy it. Smh.

It’s nice that not everybody agrees or thinks the same….congratulations on being in the small minority!

There is a video showing it off road and it looks pretty decent for steep hills with mud, snow, gravel situations. Although it is press material.

you think that AWD system its only for offroad ??? mistake , i buy awd cars for safety on the slipper road

Thank you! The road, although without holes, was uneven. So the camera wobbled back and forth from gravity.

@@NRJDrive Ah ok, thanks for the reply, I thought it was the suspension not being very good, but good to know it was just the camera 👍🏽😂.

Thanks! These ones are just regular Nokian lamellar winter tires without spikes, in our conditions winter tires are obligatory from 1 december to 1 march, so we change tires twice a year.

For sure, it is not a usual awd car. Rear being activated only at slippery conditions, so 99% of time only front axle used. But still you can force rear axle being used all the time by selecting Trail mode. Between Eco and Fast mode there's also a Power mode, but overall it's still not that powerful as you may expect.

@@NRJDrive OK thank you, But it is still enough for snowy conditions ?

​@@Danny-up4jm To get out of a snowdrift in the parking lot i'm sure yes (additional wheels always help if you stuck), but definitely not for off-road driving.

I wonder if the rear electric motor torque is multiplied with the differential gearing or if its direct drive to the axles. Because at lower speeds it may be enough to push the car if the front wheels are slipping. If i can confirm this i would probably buy one as it does strike a nice balance with the fuel economy etc.

Thank you for your comment! I'm adjusting the camera and seat height every time, but sometimes things doesn't go as supposed. POV Test Drive is just a first person perspective video, without reviewing the whole car and it's options. With best wishes, NRJ Drive.

Materials are good enough for that price tag, still same plastic but at least design is quite nice. Also these textile decorations are looking good.

In reality not too loud, somewhere in the middle. It may feel so because of the speakers.
