1.5L Gas Engines on MPV/SUVs

**ice15** · December 10th, 2019 06:37 PM

*For discussion on this thread, focus tayo sa Automatic models lang*

Pansin ko lang... Karamihan ng available MPVs/Subcompact Crossover SUV ngayon puro 1.5L na gasoline engine.

e.g.
Ford Ecosport
Suzuki Ertiga
Mitsubishi Xpander
Toyota Rush and Avanza
Tiggo Line ng Chery
MG ZS
Honda BR-V and Mobilio

Maayos ba yung mga current MPV/SUV locally na 1.5L ang engine?

Di ba hirap kapag 5 passengers with cargo?

to add...

Mga kilala kong naka Ecosport - ang lakas daw sa gas compared to their old 1.5L Vios/City
Yung naka BR-V naman daw bitin daw sa high speed - better daw yung Mobilio
Tapos yung kilala kong naka Ertiga - masaya naman, kaso 2 lang sila palaging passenger

Yung mobilio po namin nadala ko na sa Jimenez, Mis. Occ. by land. 5 passengers + luggage tapos pauwi naman may dagdag dala pa kaming mga prutas.

Kinaya naman nya though kailangan mo lang talaga dagdagan ng apak pag mga akyatan na lalo nung pauwi na kami. Sa overtaking naman, hindi din hirap.

With regards naman sa fuel consumption, nag-average kami ng mga 18km/l.

3 years na samin yung unit this month. Masasabi ko naman na maayos pa rin ang takbo nya hanggang ngayon. Casa-maintained.

A bit lacking in punch probably, pero to the point na mabibitin hindi naman siguro. It can be recalled that the Tamaraw FX and Revo had gas engines that made even less power, but seat 10.

We owned Honda BR-V. Sa maintenance, same lang ng gastos with our Honda City. Ang complain ko lang sa BR-V, kelangan i-floor minsan ung gas pedal kapag matarik ang kalsada (eg. Baguio) lalo na kapag ang sakay ay 7 pax + luggage.

For city driving, enough naman ung 1.5 engine nya hehe.

kahit mga compact and higher cars ngayon mostly 1.5L na (ex. civic, mazda3, accord). nilalagyan nalang ng turbo to make up for the lack of power. this is because of tax laws sa china.

regarding yung question on kung maayos ba sa mpv, para sa akin maayos naman. pero kung fully loaded at matarik, medyo mappwersa talaga but it can still do the job.

in our gen 1 ertiga (1.4L), nakaka 13km/l pag out of town trips fully loaded. kasama na ung ikot ikot sa lugar at metro traffic palabas at pauwi ng metro manila. city driving na mostly ako lang, ave. is 8.5km/l.

yung xpander does better. at least 9km/l sa city with 3 occupants + school bags and a lot of waiting. haven't brought it out sa mahabang road trip yet.

in terms of fuel efficiency, the MPVs seem to do better than the SUVs. baka sa weight or how they are mostly driven.

ibang klase yan mobilio pag ako pinapadrive pag lumalabas kami groupo ko.

Syempre madaling-araw yun, 17kilometers per liter. TApos one time sa sta mesa bridge yung pababa bago mag pureza nagulat ako nag 20kilometers!!!! Ang lakas makabastos ng desel.

Kung ganito katipid eh bakit pa kayo mag dedesel na tunog lata.

Kasi FWD mga mpv na gas.. pag RWD mas malakas sa gas.. tsaka depende talaga sa driving habit.. kita mo daming mababagal na naka gas.. yung mga naka diesel bibilis umarangkada.. yung mga naka gas hanggang takbong pogi lang kasi mahal gasolina

FWD ang ecosport, brv, Tiggo at ZS 1.5L subcompact crossover SUVs that the TS mentioned. only exceptions are the rush and avanza. but yes, FWD is usually more fuel efficient than RWD.
