nobody asked:


I have never driven a new car, only an old Rover 620i and a Ford XR3 and they never struggled to keep up with motorway traffic in SA and Japan, where people drive much faster (160 kph +). So why do they say in road tests that so many new 1.6 to 2.0 L cars struggle to keep up with motorway traffic, which is only 70mph?
This is in Top Gear magazines.
