Well you may seem to be getting a lot for your money. It is a compact sedan after all and selling for subcompact money. But The performance isn't really great, fuel consumption is reportedly disappointing, and the design is very old. I don't see much particularly desirable about this car actually. You might as well get the Accent 1.4GL A/T and enjoy your ride a lot more. You get lots of space, the latest technology, great gas mileage and A/T convenience at a lower price tag. And I believe the engine knocking issue has been resolved na so no worries.

Magkano ba talaga ang budget mo? Let's try to maximize it and look for the best ride for you.

This version of the Lancer has been here already since 2004 so matanda na yan. I don't know about you but I'm not one for the Cedia's design, especially after they facelifted it to look more different than the Cedia based Evo at lalong pumangit. Parang hindi na siya mukhang new car kahit bagong labas lang ng showroom. Now there's nothing particularly wrong about this car, I just find it to be lacking in the presence of so much competition.

As for the Hyundai, kung natatakot ka may 5 year warranty naman sila. And I'm starting to see Accent 1.4GL's being used for cab service now so reliability concerns should pretty much be put to rest.

uhm ok.. thanks! but i has a bigger engine and the response is ok nmn db? 100 to 120kph/hr lng nmn me.. unlike my cousin's husband.. 160kph fro clark toll gate to floridablanca tollgate for just only 12minutes.. ^^ 94 toyota gli AT

Haha~ nice! The engine is the 4G18 which is 90s era pa and with no variable valve timing so the gas mileage is not as good as more modern 1.6L's. So yung pagtatakbo niya is like any garden variety 90s 1.6L compact sedan. So if you are OK na with that, eh di OK na.

[glenne08]

ok nga un.. pero my family want a brand new.. so un ngang GLX ung plan bilhin..

value-for-money nga ang lancer glx 1.6 kasi compact size car w/ 1.6l engine with the price of a sub-compact car. may airbags na din siya at dahil matagal ng asa market yung cedia-body lancer siguradong mas madaling kumuha at mas mura ang spare parts. personally ok naman yung styling niya para sakin

Bro GTi, ano na ba ang acceptable gas mileage for a 1.6? Di ko kasi magets kung bakit marami nagsasabing malakas sa gas ang Cedia. For CVT GLS, 7-9 ang alam kong FC since medyo underpowered siya compared to 2.0 EX CVT. Pero my GLX runs 8.5-11 for city driving. 8.5 being stucked in edsa during rush hour. malakas na ba sa gas yun?

[GTi]

IMHO, considering the amount of power it makes, 7-9 is a tad low parang in the realm of 1.8's na yun ah. Dun sa 8.5-11, yung 11 ba best case scenario? As in yung parang fuel consumption attained by low speed cruising?

[dale323]

Nope. That's rizal-c5fort/edsa-makati on a weekday na hindi ko maconsider na highway driving since may mga stop and go yan. Hiway driving ko (rizal-qc-nlex-bulacan-nuevaecija or nlex -sctex baguio) 14 - 17 lang. Di ko na mapaabot ng 20 since di ko kaya ang 70km/hr constant driving.

I see. So 11km/L is achievable in relatively smoothly flowing and loose traffic. Not bad! Is that considered light-footed driving?

i drive a 2003 cedia gls cvt. and i don't feel like driving fast in it at all. kind of... savoring the ride.. i just love to see the tach stay at 1500-2000 rpm, while the speedo needle creeps up from 20 to 40 to 60 kph.. and i love the front grille.. i think boulay's smiling clown grille is a big step backward. but that's just me..

Ok na ok sir. got this car for almost 6 years.

9-11kms/l city then 14-16kms/l on a hway.

The mt, maybe decent but not that exceptional as a mirage and the cvt has good mileage on the highway but not so much in the city. If only the engine had the mivec of the ex 1.6 though, it may help achieve a better fc.
