1200 Cc Car

[chuang]

Can one drives a 1200cc car from Chiangmai to Bangkok..is it advisable...thanks..

You can do it in a 850cc engine if you had one 1200cc no problemo just check your oil levels, tyre pressure when you set off.

Very advisable i'd say as it will only cost you around 1500 baht. Bigger engine cars can be at least double that. Quicker of course with a bigger car - and a bit safer - but 1200cc is easily good enough for cruising along at 100 / 120, and at that speed, you are about as safe as you can be on a Thai highway.

With not 1 but 2 Nissan March cars, a CVT auto and a 5 spd. and no less than 30 trips Chiang Mai to BKK or Pattaya in the.

The March 3 cyl. engine does just fine. at 100 kph I average just under 20 kpl with A/C on and best is 26 kpl. On 1 rush trip i went nearly 140 kph most of the way

enjoy your trip !

I did a 650 km trip in Brazil in a 1000cc car. No problem. As Nike would say "Just do it"

Nowadays a 1.2 car is as powerful as a mid range car from 20 years ago (Golf III 1.8 : 75hp) and probably more secure (abs, airbags...).
