I have this friend, their family will buy a brand new car. They want those people mover (MPVs) however i dont have much knowledge about this type of car. 1M below raw ang kanilang budget. however i was telling them to stretch it a bit and buy a Kia carens. Pero sabi ko pag below 1M talaga, Nissan Gran Livina nalang sila.

I need your opinions guys. thanks in advance!

The Nissan Gran Livina doesn't really cut it. It is really too small. It is probably great for the school run when you just have to drop off a couple of kids and their bags.

If you want a people mover under P1M, the choice vehicle is a Toyota Innova.

Agree. Kapag di kaya ang Carens, Innova nalang talaga. Kahit na hindi siya kasing komportable at bilis tulad ng Carens, OK rin. There's a reason why so many families bought the Innova, and that is because of its durability, affordability and good performance combined with fuel efficiency.

MPV kasi ang hanap eh.. di ba ang innova under AUV category pa din same with adventure and crosswind..

Na, the Innova is the spiritual successor of AUV's like Revo and Tamaraw FX but its not an AUV. Its an MPV just by looking at it! An AUV has a side facing third row thus increasing passenger capacity at the expense of safety (the old Revo was like that, so is the Crosswind and Adventure). MPV's have them front facing and the Innova is front facing.

pero AUV kasi sold in asian countries?? MPV are sold worldwide??

Nah those are generalizations. What makes an AUV an AUV is the type of car and not where it is sold. The Grand Livina is considered MPV but its not sold in the US and Western Europe... Its also designed in China which is an Asian country so by your definition the Grand Livina is an AUV...
