But base dun sa mga may alam sa sasakyan na sinubukang imaneho tong EX ko, ok na ok daw para sa 1.6, kasi they were expecting na underpowered daw ito at not that responsive pero nung na-try na nila, nagkakamali daw pala sila. Isa pang sabi sakin maganda daw yung gearing nito (no idea what it means hehe). I'm not just sure though kung pampalubag loob lang yung mga yun sa akin at nahihiya lang silang sabihin yung negative feedback kung meron man. hehe

Isa pa narealize ko nung huli na masyadong maliit ang accent. Pero siguro an sarap dalhin nun at humataw sa expressway hehe

Yes, the gearing combination is good. The 4-speed automatic tranny has a combination of low gears and high gears. The 2 lower gears give it good acceleration while the higher gears give it good fuel economy.

The result is a quick acclerating car with good fuel economy.

Just saying (again). The Lancer EX is not a heavy car. It is around the same weight has the corolla or civic so the 1.6L engine will have no issue in performing well in this car. The Lancer EX GTA is a bit heavier than the GLS and GLX because of added features.

Is that also applicable in the M/T GLX? 1st to 3rd being the low gears and then 4th to 5th being the high?
