Alright, let me be honest and tell you a few things that I dislike about this car: - Gas Mileage (Hyundai claims it gives you 25 mpg in the city, which is not true, I get not more than 23 mpg in the city for sure)- Traction Control (The traction can not handle the acceleration and the wheels would start spinning, even on the dry roads, not sure what to blame)- USB port - The built in USB port does not support android, at least not in my case, therefore I have to rely on Bluetooth or AUX)- Dull Alloy Wheels - The dullness of alloy wheels for the SE trim does not compliment the car over all, but eh, I can't complain much as it is a BASE model Now, the things I absolutely love about this car: - Great Turn Radius - Beautiful LED lights (even with base model)- Highway mileage (35 mpg even driving at 75 miles an hour, you might get better than 37 mpg if you drive at 55 miles an hour)- Spacious trunk - Great leg room for rear seats - Just enough power to accelerate quickly and merge on to the highways / freeways - Amazing Brakes - Sports, ECO and Normal Mode (For those who do not know, once switched to SPORTS mode, the car's steering becomes stiff as well as the engine along with the help of transmission helps you accelerate the car faster, you actually feel like driving a sports car.

The system also works on acceleration out of a corner when the inside rear has a tendency to spin, allowing the driver to put power down more quickly.

Each motor spins one wheel, and Audi says it overlooked maximum acceleration to focus on maximum efficiency and range.

It also improves traction under acceleration by preventing the driving wheels from spinning on slippery surfaces.

Thus, in a car with a short wheelbase, the short lever arm from the CM to the rear wheel will result in a greater lateral force on the rear tire which means greater acceleration and less time for the driver to adjust and prevent a spin out or worse.

This system works similarly to an anti-lock brake system, but instead of not allowing the wheels to lock up, the ASC system prevents wheels from spinning on heavy acceleration.

ATC prevents wheel spin under acceleration especially when traction is limited on slippery surfaces in mines or on ice.

I also can't detect even the slightest hint of mouse acceleration going on, nor could I make it spin - out.

Because contraction of the vortex tends to require faster rotation (conservation of angular momentum), which increases centrifugal acceleration, which opposes contraction, it becomes hard for air to flow in sideways to take the space of warmer air that is rising when the air is spinning; thus, a rising column of air can pull up on air from below.
