They bite into the road with an unrelenting grip.<\/h2>\n<p><strong>BHPian rahul_jo<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;ve been driving the Slavia for the last couple of days and the initial impressions are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The car simply feels light. A little too light on some occasions. Almost like a go kart.<\/li>\n<li>At higher speeds under sudden acceleration it might make you feel slightly out of control. But it&#8217;s in that very sensation that the essence of its fun factor resides.<\/li>\n<li>The brakes are pretty sharp and take a little getting used to at first. They bite into the road with an unrelenting grip.<\/li>\n<li>The steering feels light to the touch, yet heavy with purpose. It is a decent harmonious blend of responsiveness and control.<\/li>\n<li>As you peer through the rear view mirror, your vision is constrained. The field of vision through the rear window is very tiny in my opinion.<\/li>\n<li>The front seat angle pushes your body into a peculiar posture. It is at a slight incline under your thighs that simply can&#8217;t be adjusted. I looked around but the incline isn&#8217;t adjustable. Could cause back pain over longer drives.<\/li>\n<li>And yes. The notorious issue of Slavia rattles is true. It&#8217;s a brand new car but with each pothole the car seems to voice its protest with a lot of squeaky sounds coming from all over.<\/li>\n<li>The sound system is pretty average but the infotainment screen is pretty neat.<\/li>\n<li>My current daily driver is a F30 3 series and that feels completely planted on the road even at higher speeds but this Slavia drives like a fun go kart. It is a completely new yet exciting feeling.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After driving it for 2 days, I barely care about the other little niggles here or there because I had an awfully fun time driving it.<\/p>\n<p>This also serves as a gentle reminder that not every aspect of the car needs to be exceptional to contribute to your overall experience.<\/p>\n<p>Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/news\/bmw-3-series-owner-drives-skoda-slavia-9-honest-observations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>The brakes are pretty sharp and take a little getting used to at first.
