My Bora Legend is the manual transmission version, with a body weight of about 1,280 kg. It feels quite stable to drive, especially on the highway where it doesn't feel floaty. The slightly heavier weight makes the car feel more solid and improves handling during turns, but daily fuel consumption is a bit higher—I average around 7 liters per 100 km. Friends looking to save money might opt for a lighter car, but safety should still be a priority. I recommend checking the owner's manual for the exact weight before buying, as automatic or higher-spec versions can weigh up to 1,350 kg. Tire wear is also faster, so I check the suspension and brake system every six months to avoid safety risks. Regular maintenance is key to prevent the weight from accelerating component wear.
