CMH Proton Ballito has Compiled a Guideline of What to Expect on a Test Drive

CMH Proton Ballito has compiled a guideline of what to expect on a test drive.

Firstly, sit in the driver’s seat and adjust it, along with the mirrors, to your preferences. By selecting the right seating set-up, driving can be both safer and more comfortable.

Inspect each control and switch. Recognise their purposes and check to make sure you can access them with no problem while keeping your eyes on the road. To find your blind spots, check your side, rear, and forward vision.

The Drive

Stay on roads you use frequently and travel in urban, rural, and highway environments. During the test drive, you should be on the lookout for any problems and get a good idea of how well the car works overall.

Test Drive Tips

• If you driving a manual car, consider how challenging it is to press the clutch.
• Is controlling the release easy?
• Was the pull-off simple? The same is true for automatics.
• Do the gears in a manual fit precisely and accurately? Do you like where it is and how it works with the gear lever?
• Are automatic changes up (and down) smooth?
• Do the brakes stop the car smoothly?

Importance of a Test Drive: Moving up to a rural road, you can check

How does the vehicle handle the uneven surfaces of rural roads?

When you turn into a corner, does the steering accurately respond, sending the car in the direction you intended?

When turning, does the body roll much?

Is the seat comfortable and stable?

The highway drive is an opportunity to check all of the listed items at a higher speed and look at

What effects does side wind have on a car?

On the highway, does it tend to “wander” or does it follow a straight path?

Can you easily maintain highway speeds?

This will show how you and the car of your dreams can travel for many miles together without any problems.
