I was coming back from travel yesterday and this argument came up I even told the sienna driver I once finished the sienna speed which is 180/ph, most of the passengers said it's not possible to do 180 on any Nigeria road I just look at them and laughed. No need to even argue with people that said trailer can run more than car. |

XGhost: In most of those YouTube videos, d cars have been enhanced. That's why u can see them achieving high speeds. Don't try it with ur normal car. There is a relationship between the Horse Power of your car and the top speed it can achieve at 1,000 rpms 1 Like |

Pearl1910: Stock ride... Though anybody can claim anything. Those limits you speak of start to come into play when you approach top speed. The speed increase slows down considerably as RPM approaches redline, it's to save the engine I think. This is on stock cars. Out of the factory the car is programmed to achieve the speed on the speedometer. Moded cars will surpass the top speed easily if so modified. Air intakes are larger, ECU is reprogrammed etc 1 Like |

YeyeGbami: I haven't driven the XC90 like that, the car feels heavy so I don't feel comfortable pushing it hard and I've not had the chance to drive it outside Lagos. My brother says you don't feel like you're going fast in it, him na 160km/hr and car feels like your driving leisurely |

XGhost: No no no...on modern cars, the speedometer is a couple of Tens of miles/kms more than the top speed the car is designed to reach. The extra is for economics or marketing reasons. For Economic reasons; So they can use thesame speedometer on different models/trims and For Marketing reasons; so u will think ur machine can go that fast when in actual sense it can't. 1 Like |

Pearl1910: To some degree I'd agree and then again disagree. I think the major reasons for the adjustments are to protect the engine and the environment. Like Many new cars won't let you rev beyond 4/5000 RPM for "environment" sake, even if you floor the accelerator. Yes, some models/trims share parts and like you said some adjustments for maybe 10 extra KM. But for significant difference between trims, things are different over and under the skin. A corolla S sports a different instrument cluster. A corolla xrs is a complete different beast and it's instrument cluster is different too same as its top speed. Then again, aerodynamics, the faster you go the more wind resistance. That's why as you approach those extremely high speeds the increment is slower. Given enough room, without the limiter the car will do its stated top speed |

DMechyy: Point taken, I will try to find good used anyway I can for some parts. Like if the part was taken directly of a used or salvaged vehicle. It's just hard to trust these market sellers, vs say, buying directly from a DENSO distributor. These market guys could even try selling you the faulty parts that someone has thrown away from their car as tokunbo. I will take a weekend and go to ladipo myself, or find a seller that will take returns. Thanks for the advice. 1 Like |

YeyeGbami: My major issue with the Volvo, mine and my brother's, it kinda takes some seconds to get going, but once it's off, ooooooohhhh it's gone. Na that slight delay de make coro boys think say we be mate. I remember racing one Camry muscle between Berger and oworo on noght, the guy must have been surprised. Overtook him at alapere, slowed down for him to catch up at ogudu then dusted him at ifako, slowed down for him at oworo saluted him before turning off to gbagada. For the XC90 I de fear say the brake no go hold the weight, it's heavy maahnn. The comfort, it's sweeeeeett 2 Likes
