#Lightzone 4.1.9 review 2019 manual#

The M4 rides on hard 205/70R15 100S WANLI S-1023 XL tires which could be a factor. The very compliant ride is very good in the city, but beyond 90 km/h on the highway, the M4 begins to ride like you are on pogo sticks. The turbocharged 1.9-liter diesel engine drives the rear wheels with more energy than previous model Toyota HiAceвЂ™s and InnovaвЂ™s.

The 6-speed manual was very easy to modulate as well. The steering wheel and steering were much better than expected. The single sliding door is alright for cost management and better cabin rigidity besides, passengers should enter and exit from the right curbside under almost every situation anyhow.

The instrument cluster is good too though I hope JAC Philippines can update the firmware to translate the Chinese characters into the English alphabet. The M4 is quite a long van so its good that it also comes with standard rear parking sensors. The single-DIN audio head unit streams Bluetooth audio and telephony through a decent sounding 6-speaker system. The rear climate controls combined with the front are so strong that even with our test unit not having window tint, the cabin would get quite frosty. ISOFIX mounts for child seats are also standard. Every occupant has either a lap-belt or full three-point seatbelt. I am happy to see that JAC was thorough with its standard safety equipment, from the front airbags to the multiple ABS-supported active nannies. They even included an additional USB power outlet between the third and fourth row seats. Having the traditional small seat in the front bench is not just unsafe but uncomfortable.

The front seats thankfully are separated individually not just for driver and passenger comfort but for better visibility for the second- row passengers. You would need to as well as when the third row is upright you can only load limited soft bags in the trunk. The first two bench row seats recline with adjustable headrests, and have rigid jump seats which altogether accommodates three people per row, while the three-seat third row with adjustable headrests can be folded and removed to increase load capacity. The interior configuration and design are straightforward and is actually better than similarly packaged Hyundai StarexвЂ™s until its 2nd generation 2018 facelift. The NVH is good, better than most of its genre costing much more.

It is not a bad looking mini-van at all, it would in fact look quite good and handle much better with larger and more pleasing redesigned alloys on better tires which JAC has on the facelifted model. JAC builds on the robust long wheelbase Hyundai chassis for their new 1st generation M4 since 2016.ДЄside from the similar overall size and appearance, JAC employs their own drivetrain and everything else. JAC and Hyundai had a joint venture building rebadged 1st generation StarexвЂ™s under license from 2002 to 2015. If the all-new JAC M4 van somehow resembles a Hyundai Starex, there is a good reason for that.
