Santro ac vs cultus

[ch.talal]

Cultus has got very old technology. It was discontinued in Japan in late 90s and other countries in 2003. But it is still in production in Pakistan with same old engine technology. The bad thing about cultus is that its air conditioner puts excessive load on engine and you can feel it while driving. In temperature 45 and above, you will barely feel that its ac is working. Its ac does throw cool air when car is running fast. But while standing on a signal, you will have to put your foot on accelerator to get some cooling in extreme temperature. Otherwise, Cultus has got good road grip and excellent suspension but the current build quality of brand new cultus is not acceptable.

Santro's road grip and suspension is better than cultus, so your point is invalid

not with stock tyre/rimz. i went from sialkot to sambryal through wazirabad road on this ride yesterday, itz 18k driven and i had to use all the road available to take the turn before sambriyal canal bridge at 70 that too with a lil squeal and lots of body roll (guess the red mark on speedo at 50 indicates handling limitations of this car), while i do it on my khyber at 80+ while keeping the car in single lane. and santro's suspension isn't durable, or better, it only feels better because of softer springs(that height allows more travel) and silent dashboard.
