2013 Innova 2.5V or 2013 Carens LX AT or 2013 Mitsubishi Montero Sport non VGT GLX AT

I haven't seen the Chevy Spin but had bad experience with Chevy as a brand before. Isn't the Spin same size as the Avanza? Maybe I'll pass by The Chevrolet dealership later...
*basti08 ... I get what you mean and at the same time confused by it. Do you mean you like the Innova because you own one but secretly pining for the Montero Sport? And when you say it's perfect, as in, as a people mover but nothing else?

yep, almost same size as avanza.

Innova for me but in G trim. i can trade the captain seats and leather seats for additional seating capacity.

Not open to 2nd hand? You can get a good MS GLS-V or SF R e-VGT with your budget.

Another option would be the SWB Carnival. It's not as fuel efficient with the 2.9L engine, but is very roomy and comfortable.

As it is among the three. Honestly, if you're not very perceptive, the ride quality of the Innova and Montero are really not very far apart, both being ladder frame vehicles with double wishbone front and coil spring rear suspension. I find the Innova 2.5V to be less practical due to the captain seats on the 2nd row. If I'm looking for luxury, I would go for the Carnival, Starex or even Previa instead. If you're getting the Innova, I'd suggest you go for the 2.5G.

Personally, I'd go for the Montero. It is the biggest among the three, which means big stage presence. Turbo lag is very evident with this model, so it's best to get the manual. This way you'd get better gas mileage too.

The Carens is very nice, and is undoubtedly the fastest, best handling and most fuel efficient among the three. But being an all new model with an all new engine, I would be wary for any glitches that may present themselves.

KIA Carnival SWB * 1.1M (new).

Based on your criteria, get the Innova G variant. Forget the V variant since its less practical.

Innova is better than the Montero in terms of seating position and cabin space (for both passenger rows).

Innova has better ground clearance than Carens.

Depending on one's tastes, Innova is as plain jane anonymous as you can get. It has never been a looker since before.

Mahina A/C ng MS compared sa innova db?

That's the main gripe i have with the MS' that i have used (office vehicles). These are the GLX variants so i cannot comment on the VGT model if they have a different AC. Parang mahina yung blower.

When you say mahina, how weak is weak? Compared to say a Nissan Sentra at full blast AC (na masakit sa balat sa sobrang lamig), let's peg it at 10 (1-10), what number would MS have?

It's not that bad... Lumalamig din naman kahit paano, although it isn't quite as instantaneous like some others. I'd say around 7.
