  1. Generally marketing sales department still using L/100 to advertise but kmpl is a more commonly used by owners be it in india thailand malaysia or singapore. Guess its easier to translate to your daily usage. Ie when u fuel up u are paying per litre. So how far can u go on that litre. However i do recall 10 over years ago cars which fc displayed fc calculations only had the L/100km format. Thank god they have options to select now adays.
  2. happening to me as well. using Andriod Auto.
  3. been driving my karoq for abt 10 days now. encountered while on ACC mode when other cars cut in too close infront of me and the car warns and brakes but no ABS sound though maybe its just the ACC slowing down.
  4. 1.5T FWD mostly highway driving. have gotten 22kmpl as well. but over all average since last refuel is between 17-18kmpl. In Eco mode and using ACC.
  5. Zoravar replied to Cvak's topic in Skoda Karoq
    Karoq Sportline 1.5 collected on the 29th oct.
  6. damn mine is on 19" can feel every single thing on the road. i will definatly be looking to swap out for a 16 or a 17 at least
  7. Guess there are a few of us here at least
  8. never mind my previous question. i only can find it on skoda-parts.com. is there where you buys bhough it from? or are there alternatives?
  9. ops when i said e-brakes i meant emergency brakes applied by the system not the parking brakes that are now operated with a button. appologies for causing some confusion here. DACIA something new i learnt today. dont think it exsist anywhere in asia. had a quick look on their site seems like not too different from the modern cars today having all these tech features. guess all is good if there are options to turn off for those prefer not to use them and for basic driving functions like gear stick, start/off button and the parking brake buttons as long as there is a way to overwirte them.
  10. So if you cant turn it off permanently it obviously means you are encouraged to keep it on i too believe in tech but there should be alternatives and not become slaves to it. its all to hard to imagine any particular scenario that may cause the car to not move. however i been a victim of electronic failure before. not limited to my scenario but anything could happen. on my previous ride i had a situation pushed the start button car started. attemped to shift lever into D wldn't move down stuck in P. realised PRND +/- are not lite which meant some kind of power delivery failure to the shifter. Now i couidnt do anything about it so wanted to turn off engine guess what, i cant cause the system loss communication with the shifter and doesnt detect it in P and i am not able to turn off the engine. Car was towed to dealership engine running. i wish there was an alternative to shift into D or to off the engine which could overwrite the stop button. like originally posted issue in this thread, it could be worse once the car e brake and comes to a complete stop, and moves a liltte again and e brakes immeditely or doesnt move again .....guess turning off some sensors will enable the car to be driven back like a car without technology would. and in worst case strandard in some rural area with no network coverage and maybe now one passing by that area in extreme heat or winter could be dangerous(depending on which part of the world you are in).
  11. i belive every electronic function should be able to be switched off. simple reason if there is a major malfunction, you are able to turn it off and not get strandard in the middle of no where
  12. No Sir. based on my current ride which i am trading in for the Karoq everytime this assisted brakes kicked in it was when i was much faster than the traffic around me and i switched lanes to over take but there is another vehicle cruising there, while i had enough time to overtake and come back into my original lane. usually in such scenario there shouldnt be anyone too close behind you unless u r in some kind of speeding convoy. another scenario (RHD)it happens when i am going to make a right turn at a junction and the car infront is going to make a u turn the front car speeds down the turning lane as if his gonna make a right turn too but suddenly brakes approaching the end of the divider before making a U turn(maybe its the driving pattern in my country) this assisted braking kicks in but still i am far from a crash. At this point i am like luckily no one was behind me specially a motorbike. So yes havent got rear ended. But seems like a possibility that it could happen
  13. i think not everyone has the same specs. Before i committed to purchase mine searched through videos on youtube and yes not all are the same some are add on options. apperently i was told mine has. Even if someone is walk behind you it will still brake not just detecting another car. Collecting my car next week, i will try it out and let you guys know.
  14. i am yet to collect my car next week. so not too sure but not new to this feature my previous car has this too. i too would advice you not to turn it off completly. maybe you can play around with the setting like choosing when you want a warning and how near you want a assisted braking to your liking that may be appropriate for your driving style.
