Why can't the Yaris X drive on highways?
2 Answers
The Yaris X cannot drive on highways due to poor stability and safety. Below are specific details about the Yaris X: 1. Engine: The Yaris X is equipped with a 1.5L NR series engine, paired with an S-CVT super intelligent continuously variable transmission, with a combined fuel consumption of approximately 5.2L per 100 km. 2. Exterior: The entire series comes standard with LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, and LED combination taillights. It features a brand-new design, including a unique sporty rear spoiler, a newly designed large-mouth front grille, and a sporty body kit, creating an SUV-like styling.
I've always driven small cars, including models like the Yaris X, which are actually fine on highways, though some people might find them less than ideal. The power is a bit lacking, so acceleration might not be quick when overtaking, and driving for long periods can be tiring. The impact of wind resistance is significant, making the body less stable than larger cars at high-speed cruising, and the noise is also more noticeable. The suspension tuning is on the softer side, leading to more body roll during turns or over bumps, requiring careful driving. The smaller tire size means limited grip, especially on rainy or slippery roads, so maintaining a safe distance is crucial. I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and brakes, maintaining a steady speed, and avoiding sudden lane changes. Fuel consumption is low in city driving, but the small engine runs at higher RPMs on highways, leading to increased fuel usage. Proper trip planning can help offset these drawbacks.
