    Mga katsikot, Patulong naman, d ko malaman kung ano ang pipiliin ko Orlando Automatic (Gas) or Innova V (Diesel or gas) automatic? Plano ko kasing bumili by April at 1st car ko ito kaya ayaw kong magsisi.

    Test drive both. Pero if you're going to ask me, wait mo for the facelifted Innova this February. Much better ang Innova G diesel for me.

    Ung Chevy Orlando, masikip ang 3rd row. Availability of spare parts is questionable. Though, sabi nung dealer sa akin na number 1 sila pag dating sa after sales service. Ganda ng dashboard and instrument panel of the Orlando. Okay ang porma ng Orlando, mukhang mini SUV at first glance.

    Orlando is a good looking vehicle, but Chevy like many American car makers have a lot of reliability issues it now has lessened but I still do not trust Chevy.

    Many thanx Retz for the input, yan nga rin ang nagustuhan ko sa Orlando lalo na ang safety feature nila at ang exterior design.

    yes, that is what comes first to my mind sa chevy. availability of parts and reliability issues. if TS, could take those risk then go ahead with the Orlando.

    The Orlando looks very similar to the Kia Carens!

    Mas practical ang Innova since the Orlando has no diesel variant (at least for the time being). And also since the Innova has more robust, truck-based underpinnings. Also, has anyone here test driven the Orlando? I'm wondering if it has also inherited the Cruze's horrible transmission.

    Why what's the problem with the Cruze's transmission? I am also looking at this car but would like to research first if it's really a good buy!

    The Cruze is an excellent car, really. The only thing bad about it is the transmission. It doesn't seem to have brains in it. The odd gear ratios make the 1.8L accelerate very slowly, even slower than cars that have less power. And it makes the VCDi not blazingly fast as its supposed to be.

    To TS, go with Toyota, they offer good after market sales service. Toyota build quality is their guarantee. For me it's the Innova G D4D.

    The Cruze's transmission is terrible, 2 of my relatives have one, both have similar problems. Check also carcomplaints.com (search cruze) you will see what we are talking about.

    Pinili ko Toyota Innova E D4D AT over Chevrolet Orlando at satisfied naman ako sa performance nya,
    fuel consumption 13km/l mixed highway and city driving, riding comfort satisfied naman family ko specially 3
    teenage kids (5'5" height) ko na nasa 3rd row di raw masikip kahit 5 hours continuous driving, We run at the speed of 140 kph at nasa kalahati pa lang ang pedal , sa overtaking naman ayos din ang bilis ng responsed nya.
    Medyo maingay lang sya pag start then pag nagtagal tumatahimik din, at pag closed na ang door wala ka ng maririnig na ingay. Satisfied din kami sa 1K PMS nya, changed oil sa Toyota Dasma at ayos din ang kanilang service.

    Congrats on your new ride sir! tanong ko lang po, did you get to test drive the Orlando or check the car out sa dealership? What made you go for the innova? Interested din kasi ako with both cars. Thanks!

    The Orlando has the same shortfall that beleaguers the Carens when compared to the Innova - it's more cramped, making it less comfortable especially for passengers in the 3rd row.

    Between the Orlando and Carens though, even if the Orlando is the better looker and the more modern MPV, I'd get the Carens just because of the engine.

    But I must say, boring as it may be, the Innova still does the job of people-hauling best among the three (or four if you include the Grand Livina).

    Tried considering the Orlando before but its like the Grand Livina nasisikipan talaga ko. I dont why some people would buy the GL over Innovas. Oh well new look kasi eh. Pero i have to agree with you sir Innova or Carens if I were to buy an MPV.

    I didn't have a chance to test drive or check the Orlando but my wife did, masikip daw sa 3rd row at good for 7 passengers only unlike the Innova pwede kahit 8 to 10 passengers ok pa rin sya, pero maganda ang interior, Instrument panel at safety feature ng Orlando yun ang isa sa mga nagustuhan ko sa kanya.
    Based na din sa mga car reviews, Forums, adviced ng mga experienced drivers, Company driver who drive the Chevy Traverse V6 everyday (whom he said that American car is only good for 2 years), after sales service, price difference at Satisfied owners ng Innova, kaya Innova na din ang pinili ko.

    Price difference is more than 100K pesos kaya E variant na lang ang kinuha namin.
