How did you guys miss "TOUCH CLIMATE CONTROLS"..... Absolutely hate that shit when I have to look away from the road to adjust the temperature/fan speed.
+1 on Apple Car Play and Android auto. Absolutely beautiful features. But here's the other side of the story and specific to VW cars. My previous Rapid came with the 7 inch infotainment system and was a gem of a system, supported 5 different phones that I changed in 18 odd months. Once I upgraded to Slavia top end that came with an 8 inch infotainment system, it just didn't work. The beat or worst part is that the car was launched about a year and half ago and the infotainment system's compatible list of devices are all those phones that were released in 2018 and older than that. Surprising isn't it.
Ventilated seats is another fantastic feature IMO. It works extremely well in cars like Seltos, Verna but is absolutely rubbish on VW cars as they make lot of noise and takes forever to cool. But then once I understood how they work, when I start the car, I make the blower marked to direct air towards legs, let the motor/machine absorb that cold air and cool the seats at the earliest.
Sunroof is another feature which I thought is absolutely useless but I have to agree with Cyrus, it makes the cabin feel more airy and now with monsoons in, the experience of it in rains is just beautiful.
Cruise control is another feature that I think is absolute boon be it bike or car.
As far as features on bikes are concerned it's gotta be traction control and ABS. I just don't ride non ABS bikes anymore (Unless there's an emergency and I got absolutely no option).
The other feature I absolutely love in bikes is the quick shifter. I experienced it for the 1st time on my Ninja 1000 SX and it completely changed the way I upshift or downshift (Except in slow traffic).
Cyrus needs to be a good listener big time. Period.
Yes omg this episode especially
@@hermitsage12 too much of intervention when someone else is speaking.. being in communication field oke should be aware of good communication skills.
Lol. Ok.
Time stamps people, it’s 2023
Well, they need people to watch through to get context
There are no ‘chapters’ in this podcast.
@@DhanushDS what context, it’s a topical list of good and bad things, it’s not that nuanced, most podcasts like this have time stamps for people to hear what their interested in, a person who has a car doesn’t care about bikes and vice versa. Every single successful podcast has time stamps.
@@CyrusDhabhar agreed but for example if someone just wants to see opinions on a particular topic, for eg it could’ve been segmented it as , sunroof, ventilated seats etc, it makes your podcast more useful/personally relevant as someone who just wants to hear the pros and cons on sunroofs could just listen to that rather than hearing about things like for example things about bikes. Especially on list based podcasts it’s doable.
@@BigGunner234 but we want you to listen to the whole thing. 😁
Yep agree with the sunroof, but if the roof without opening would be suitable I guess it would give less claustrophobic feels. Also another to add in my hate list is electronic parking brake doesnt get the feel of manual hand brake 😅. I Might be an old school guy 😂
Nice podcast. Mi key takeaways are :-
> ABS is crucial especially on larger bikes.
> people who let their kids or family stick their head out through the sun roof especially in a moving car are idoits.
That appart, once again nice podcast Varun, Cyrus and Vipul. 👍
Guys, some time stamps would be nice.
For me sunroof is a useless feature but unfortunately top end variants comes only with sunroof.
Sunroof is totally useless. Varun was spot on😅
Shaam ki Chai with new PD gupshup...what else do we need for a relaxing sunset😄☕
Love it!
I own Kia Sonet. I open the covering under the sunroof glass if it’s raining. Listening to some melodies and view of splash on the sunroof is a mood elevating scene. Also when taking a picture while the car is at standstill.
Else, the roof is good for nothing. I don’t open it bcoz it absorbs lot of dust inside the car. 😢
I agree with Varun with conditions applied.
I did not watch from beginning but for sure there will about sunroof! 😂
Brooooooo. Please listen to it 😂😂
Small sunroofs should be skipped altogether, manufacturers or even the govt should stop the sale of sunroofs which can be opened. Some cars have panoramic glass which can't be opened. That's the best way to do it. Just open and close the blinds according to your needs
as a motorcyclist
favourite feature would be modern instrument cluster which provide multiples data on display.
Disliked feature would be the LED headlights, they serve no purpose in city or on highways.
Early APACHE RTRs 0-60 and top speed recorder was one of the coolest features that none of the bikes had at the time
I just hope car makers STOP making touch screen HVAC controls
One feature which is catching up fast but is a pain to use ' screen only dashboard with touch sensitive controls' and no nobs or buttons.
Guys, Cyrus needs to let others talk. Five seconds of the other guys talking is followed by two mins of Cyrus talking. It needs to be a discussion. Not just Cyrus show. I understand that he has the knowledge and expertise but he really needs to let the others finish what they’re saying
We hear you :)
I also noticed that. He starts explaining basic stuff like we're 10 years old. And keeps on talking without really saying much.
Quick Shifter and Auto Blipper on bikes has been a game changer for me. Hate those always on LED headlights on scooters like activa. they absolutely blind you, if you are heading the other way, they are just unsafe.
I have very different views on cruise control after having used it extensively, even in Bombay city. Sealink + reclamation all day, WEH late nights and every other road where I cross 40, I put on cruise control and mobilise my right knee, even if it is for a few seconds. Also, on the expressway, you see speed cameras coming up, you drop down to 100 and engage cruise control. That's it. You don't have to look at the speedo again till you've crossed the speed cameras. To me, it has become a non negotiable feature to have in my next car.
Until and Unless, I am gonna be sticking out my tripod through the sunroof, with the car on a stationary position, "A BIG NO TO SUNROOF". I'm in favour of Varun sir. 🙌
i am having a doubt...suppose my budget is 13 lakhs and i can get a top-of-the-line venue SX opt diesel or a creta EX diesel...which one will depreciate more in 7-8 years...?
in the video cyrus told creta...how is that possible? can you justify?
in my view i think it will be venue that will depreciate more in 7-8 years...
8:18 The accidents of Rishab pant & Cyrus Mistry are 2 different types of accidents, which show the need for ADAS.
Sunroof is just a useless hole in a car
Sunroof is not so useful in India. Yes i agree that
Absolutely hate the sunroof.
Team Varun then! :D
@varunpainter you just spoke my heart out. I hate sunroof in a car. It's distracting and has no pratical implications or comforts (atleast not in India). All these years i use to think I am the only person in this world who hates sunroofs. thanks man!!
Team VP!
most underrated feature Auto dimming IRVM
Vipul and Varun really came through with this ep.
The speakers on the Ola electrics. Absolute rubbish feature in my honest opinion! 👎
+1
Cooled Glovebox is useless for me .
I absolutely agree with Varun on the sunroof point man!! It's an absolute useless feature in India.. the amount of problems people have created because of it is just dangerous to another level.. things that work in other countries not necessarily work in India..
Yet people will have it as a key reason to not buy cars like Honda Elevate😅
@@ThePandobawell it's India. Useless features are the only thing that matter
I use sunroof from November - February and it's worth it! And it definitely makes the car feel more airier.😅
❤❤❤ PowerDrift
Overall good discussion
But I am more happy to see vipul sir's choice of songs. It's nice to see artist's name coming up from ANJUNA family / Above and Beyond.
Great choice this time sir. 👍
Can you send me any link to the song he mentioned please?
You guys are talking about the traction control as a life saver but there are lot of RUclipsrs mentioning that not able to switch off the traction control is disappointing to them.
The chapri drag racers, which normal buyer never does with his car
Optional TC is always welcome. But there will be a day where you will need it. That one day, where TC will kick in and save you.
Hi Guys, I love your videos, they are different & brilliant from others.
I'm 6 feet tall & I would love to watch a video on best bikes for tall riders.
Love from MEGHALAYA ❤
TPMS is a must
If somebody needs it
Let me know
I can arrange it for anyone!
Need one
I agree with Varun, I hate sunroof and every suv top var having it but i dont wanted
If manufactures having top var without sunroof I will definitely buy that one
Nexon has one.
Sunroof should be stopped in India.. most useless feature here in our country.. if they have to give it.. provide panaromic sunroof but for that one need to have bigger vehicle.. can't have panoramic on alto..
On alto(auto) 😂
❤
Best content 👍✨
sunroof
Team Varun then
Ambient lights
Good morning

I have seen Ambassador go through thick brick walls with no problem back in the day. The driver coming out without a scratch. I am not saying anything like it's safer but a modern Alto is still a tough call. It will most likely depend on the crash.

I am neutral wrt to Sunroof
IT DOES MAN 🤣
Wts up with those 70s villain type glasses on varun?
😂
Hahahhhahhahahha
What do you guys think about people driving their vehicles with high beams on? Do you think that manufacturers should address this issue and bring a feature to restrict usage on high beams somehow in cities specifically?
Dash cam...
motorcycle timestamps please 🥺
Podcasts are conversations that usually turn out to be random. Its a fun banter with people. We add topics where we can
It feels nice to have a sunroof just to make it nicer I enjoy the feeling of raindrops on the glass above and some natural light from the top of the car and it feels roomier or less claustrophobic, especially in my Elantra which has a black interior it's nice it just gives the perception of having more space in the car. so it's not required but you can say it's just a luxury feature to have.
Softies.. can't ride a bike without ABS.. lol..
Softies, is what your brain matter would look like when it showers down on the asphalt
@@burnttoast9890 another softie who doesn't know how to modulate the brakes..
@@saurabhban1 sir , what bike do you ride ?
@@burnttoast9890obviously a pretty dated one
@@system7962 saurabhban1 is the kind of person who would argue wearing helmets🙄
