Looks like it accelerates just fine. I'm wondering how inclines handle in terms of gas usage and whether it can still climb under slick conditions (ice/snow/rain)
Yeah, it's not slow by any means. This clip was recorded while it was in "ECO" mode, which has the slowest acceleration. Lately I've just been driving in "PWR" mode, which has the quickest throttle response. It's actually quite peppy. I think you'll be surprised. That electric motor is like pure torque straight to the wheels. I've been keeping it in "PWR" mode nonstop, and have been averaging around 55 mpg on a consistent basis.
It's the stock sound system that comes with the navigation in a IV. It really is clear and has great bass...especially for stock. There are dedicated woofers and tweeters in each door, the front having 6x9 woofers. I planned on immediately putting in some subs, but really I don't feel the need to, but eventually will anyway.
hey nola i finally got the 5k after weeks of hesitation man thanks for the vids pc advice.. i just stalled on installation im not a tech savvy u knoe.. lol!
