Define "high speed."

The Tiida has a tendency for oversteer.

[tata12001]

Over 120 KM\H

its ok, i notice body roll or that swaying feeling. you will need to do some suspension work. I have 1.5 tanabe springs, strut tower bar and 18x7.5 rims it handles well at that speed.

Are you asking how it handle passing a big rig on the highway or are you asking how fast it can go around a track?

If it's the first: Not that great in my test drive. High sides plus small car means a bit of buffeting.

If it's the latter: It's a economy car what do you think? Expect to do some upgrades but end of the day you wouldn't get the same effect as say a BMW tuned at the nurburgring.

[blindsnyper]

im guessing you dont already own a tiida, so go test drive one...that will be the best way to find out

[tata12001]

Yes I dont have tiida and I am asking because the maximum speed in the test drive is 60 KM\H and any car will be stabel at that speed. so I asked U all as an owners of tiida.

Really? Do they not let you drive on the highways during test drives? That doesnt seem quite right. What would they do if you did drive the V onto the highway and go faster than 60?

[tata12001]

No , U Just try it on track

[Vahagn23]

thats around 65-70mph My V handles great

[tata12001]

ok , but iam asking about its stability over 120 KM\H not 60

I don't know where the OP is, but not being able to drive a dealer-provided test-drive vehicle onto a highway is VERY common in many countries, sans North America. For instance, if I were to test-drive a Tiida where my dealership is located (Japan), it would be a drive that can hardly exceed 60 km/h because there is no expressway/highway anywhere nearby. So I think I can understand OP's dilemma and where his/her question is coming from.

A JDM Tiida is stable at 120 km/h, but it is not like a sharp handling car, by a deliberate design I believe. The JDM Tiida, at least after 2005, received a softer supension than what is used today in the NA Versa due to the customer feedback in that market.

Nissan, like most other manufacturers, gives different flavors to different markets even though the base config and sheetmetal are the same. So to OP, I would say test drive a Tiida in your market, preferably at a dealership near a highway, so that the salesperson, if you are nice to him/her, may possibly let you take the Tiida onto a highway and test the handling. Good luck.

Thanks so much & I'll try an OP Near a highway
