Outright performance is in the league of Optra Magnum, its the 140hp DSG which feels as fast as the Cruze. With the switch from PD to CR- the loud annoying clatter previously seen in the PD versions is now gone, the new CR TDi engine feels as quiet as other cars in the segment now. The MT version just like the TSi MT has a tendency to stall if driven at very low rpm, this requires getting used to some people like me who are used to driving other diesel cars which do not stall at all. My suggestion for anyone thinking of buying a Laura is: Please go in for the DSG version, it's worth every extra penny spent. MT like FE, faster than MT upshifts and very intuitive nature: What else would you wish for? Some of us may not like the absence of torque converter, to me it does not matter.

| "DSG + Petrol Laura" is what I wanted to buy and after all confirmation from dealers and company that it's not happening anytime soon, I bought the 1.8 Tsi MT. This thread often gives me that itch again  .Last edited by .anshuman : 27th October 2010 at 18:37. Reason: Thread title edited, Removing reference. Thanks |
