I just changed for fuel economy, from greater is better to greater is better (mpg), lower is better (L/100 km), because it was confusing. Greater mileage per gallon - greater is better. Litres of fuel used per 100km - lower is better.
Roll Center
editUnder "General Preference," roll center has gone from "lower is better", which is obviously wrong, to "lower gives less weight transfer, higher improves steering feel", which is true only if the correct assumptions are applied. Not to be too weaselly, but I think we'd be better off saying something like this.
Too many variables to state a general preference.

- Yes, that or write a book. Greg Locock (talk) 23:06, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- Changed it to the proposed statement. --Tedd (talk) 20:29, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Weight Distribution General Preference
editIs it too simplistic to say that a weight distribution of 50/50 is generally preferred? Formula cars, for example, are typically between 45/55 and 40/60, to improve transient response. I expect some high-performance cars have a rearward bias, too. (Porsches, in particular.) Is this another case where we should say, "Too many variables to state a general preference?" --Tedd (talk) 20:29, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
Metric?
editThe column 'metric' includes quite a few non-metric units such as kgf or L. This should definitely be corrected. 11:51, 21 January 2011 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.234.89.87 (talk)
- The litre was also used in several subsequent versions of the metric system and is accepted for use with the SI,[3] although not an SI unit—the SI unit of volume is the cubic metre (m3). The spelling used by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is "litre",[3] a spelling which is shared by almost all English-speaking countries. The spelling "liter" is predominantly used in American English.[a] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.136.209.188 (talk) 21:15, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
Torque
editI noticed that both power and torque are missing. Power is discussed in other contexts, but I think they both need an entry as their own row. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.64.24.116 (talk) 03:07, 16 January 2014 (UTC)
