Which car to buy? Accent Mirage Avanza Fiesta or others?

[dct]

Lancer Cedia na lang. Mura na ata sobra yun ngayon.

oo nga. ang daming freebies na binibigay nito. mas malaki pa ang size

Kung Accent hindi ka mahihirapan sa PMS nandiyan na lang sa lugar nyo di mo na kelangan lumayo pa. 2nd reason hindi balasubas ang mga dealer ng Hyundai dito sa Cagayan Valley.

Kaya lang dami ng Accent dito sore eyes na nga eh

Di ba sa santiago city pa ung nearest hyundai?

Since your Mom is a first time driver, best to pick a car that has steady and predictable handling at high speeds. In your price range, that means the Fiesta, the Rio and the Jazz.

You might want to take a look at the 1.3 liter Jazz with the 5AT. This is the best AT in the segment, as the 1.4 Fiesta, Rio and Accent all come with 4-speed autos. We keep complaining about e economy of the new Jazz, but really, it is only because the old car could do over 20 kml. The new car can still do 17-18 kml on the highway, and tthe interior is huge. If you do deliveries with it, you won't be disappointed. I've seen full sets of mags in the back, car engines, multiple recaro seats. Lots of car shop owners love their Jazzes, and it's not hard to see why.

If you go down a size, the Spark is the most steady on the highway of the Super Mini class. And the cabin is pretty big. The Eon, while I suggest it to anyone who wants economy, it's still not as refined on the highway as the Spark, Picanto or i10.

Yup,- doing 100KPH at 2KRPM on a 5AT Jazz/City is priceless!

4ATs generally do 100KPH at 2.5K-3KRPMish.....

17.0K:out:

Thanks sir Niky! Didnt include the jazz sa choices kasi medyo pricey na sya. But after a test drive, i think my mom would consider.

It will be tough to try to convince her since influential din yung tita ko sa kanya (medyo obvious na konti lang alam ng mom ko sa cars kasi ginawa nyang first choice ung naging choice ng sister nya).

Between Jazz and Fiesta, which will be cheaper to maintain?

Same same. Actually, Ford was boasting about its low maintenance costs... because Ford, like Honda, prescribes 10,000 km oil change intervals for its cars, and it prices its service lower than Honda.

But even with the high service pricing, the 10,000 km / 6 month changes are very, very convenient. Especially for high-use clients like my family, which can put over 5,000 kms a month on a car.

For your mom, yung mga old models na Sentra or Lancer, pwedeng pwede na.

It will depend on how much they save up for dp and how much monthly payment they are willing to add to their expenses. But since those two are old models, low priority sila.

Saw a pic at Kotse.com showing a diesel variant of the Accent in hatchback form. Any insights about this?

It's coming in with a 125 hp 1.6 liter engine and a four-speed automatic. While normally a 4AT is a bad thing, the turbodiesel has enough power that it doesn't matter, and it still spins a lowly 2,500 rpm or less at 100 km/h.

Interior specs and toys are not finalized. From our brief drive at PCOTY, it feels softer than the Fiesta and Rio but firmer than the Accent Sedan. In other words, perfectly comfortable without being wobbly at high speeds.

Hopefully it will come in at under 900k. Awaiting word from HARI on final pricing, which they need to provide to be eligible for PCOTY.

900k is kinda steep na ata for a subcompact. Tingin nyo po sulit ba in the long run compared to gas powered subcompacts?

On another note, 799k lang pala yung Fiesta Trend 6PS. That means 7k lang difference nya with Jazz 1.3 AT. Which would be a better buy overall?

Nice! Sakto papasok na sa 750k budget

[Richardson Chan]

Assuming we raise the budget to accommodate the new Accent CRDi Hatch, say around 900k, are there any better cars I should at least take a look at?

[venrich]

test drive nio din ang lancer ex a/t, elantra 1.6 gl a/t and altis g a/t.

pasok din sa budget nio ang suzuki jimny.

[niky]

Jazz versus Fiesta... Depends on your needs. If you actually need the backseat, the Jazz is still the biggest lunchbox on the playground.
