This question is for 6th-Gen owners who bought a non-hybrid.
I'm curious about the throttle response curve for the gas engine on the 6th-Gen. With my 5th-Gen, the OEM throttle response curve looks something like this:
In other words, the throttle response is very limited at first, and the throttle must be pressed down quite a bit before the engine really revs up and accelerates.
I hated that sluggish acceleration, and found that adding a Sprint Booster made the throttle response curve more linear like the graph below -- what I consider "normal" (i.e., like all the cars I've ever driven):
I no longer have to push the throttle nearly to the floor to get decent acceleration. My 5th-Gen is immediately responsive as soon as I press the accelerator, and feels surprisingly peppy.
So... my question: what is the throttle response curve for the 6th-gen gas engine? Is it like the 5th-Gen, or is it more linear like other vehicles?
