      Go visit Garage54 channel, they have set up 2 gearboxes in a Lada so they have super high torque, it can tow 2 SUV's on idle, without touching the gas. Bigger problem is that you can't get enough grip, it just starts doing burnouts when you try pulling something heavy as this.

    What people need to remember is that there are practically no forces moving against the boat, in test conditions, a small child could pull that boat along, that is of course assuming there is no wind, and the water is completely still. There is no force moving the other way, you are fighting the drag of the water and thats really it.

      @Leandro Garcia Overtaking is a joy with this car just slam it in sport mode and feel how the car reacts to the gentlest touch. I have the 8 speed automatic and driving has become fun again for me. The interior still amazes me with the ambient lighting and carbon look finish. Never quite had a car like this before and as you say... the service with Peugeot / PSA group is top notch.

      @gordoxium Wonderful car! the GT line is one of the best lines I have tried! Congrats for your acquisition! I rent mostly all the time and they give many cars to test because they know me. They have even lent me BMW for the price of a normal rent because 'I am a good customer' - I just accidentally know the manager 🤣 , and from my XP, the only one that can compete with the GT line, is the Lexus brand, but Peugeot is more quiet (engine) and more reactive when you have to overpass - give a peak of power. So, for what you pay, Peugeot gives you more quality and benefits! ✌️Besides, in the rental agency they prefer Peugeot because it is pretty reliable and they do not need to send them for maintenance as often as the other brands. They have recommended me to go for Peugeot the day I decide to buy a car! 🙈
