cc is overated
all 1800 cc vehicles ama there is a specific one?
it is good to stereotype and generalize based on facts…
I support you fully…1800 is a big car that is high maintenance…town cars are mostly 1000 - 1500cc and they will actually save on fuel more than the rest

but Jaro Soja a car like the premio and the Allion come in two variants, 1500cc and 1800 cc, same weight, in such a case the 1800 cc will give you a much better trade-off between power and efficiency since the maintenance costs are the same

You will use more on fuel if you compare those two cars for the same purpose.

The same people who can’t buy a 4000cc range rover and would rather buy 15 proboxes of the same cash. :(

kwa hesabu za cc its not the type of vehicle, ni output performance
Sio mambo na urefu. its about the presence of obstacles or lack thereof.

Lets look at these two similar scenarios; You carry four grown adults in the premio or Allion to Msa or even Kajiado. the 1500 cc engine variant will require higher raves to attain similar speeds with the 1800cc. The raves denote the engine speed which therefore means it will end up consuming slightly more than its 1800cc counterpart which will only require a tap on the accelerator to achieve and/or maintain an optimum speed of lets say 100KPH

The general consensus often is small engines for town kind of driving, bigger for long highway journeys.

apo umejijibu, Gari ndogo ya 1500cc n below haifai kujazwa excess passengers or luggage to remain economical in long distance trips, pia its not the most efficient for long trips

I guess what you meant to say is that its not efficient kubebea mizigo. Problem with Kenyans is that they want a 1500CC vehicle to perfome better than a 2000cc Vehicle in terms of acceleration and load capacities. There are always tradeoffs to be made…a 1500cc or even a 1000cc vehicle is very efficient whether you like it or not especially when driving around town. They also perform well on long distance stretches…;only problem is when you carrying luggage and the full passenger capacity and for that, even the 1800cc is not as efficient than the 2500cc car.
Kenyans are a funny bunch…wataringa tu end year wakienda ocha but the rest of the year anacomplain vile gari yake inaconsume fuel like nobody’s business na bado hio 1300cc car itafika ocha bado
But how often do you carry four grown adults to MSA? you are thinking on the extreme end and that is where people make their mistakes…the rest of the time the car is parked five days in a week because it consumes more than its necessary, more than the lower cc cars
