Grand Starex or Super Grandia?

[Harangody]

Which is better: Toyota Hiace Super Grandia or Hyundai Grand Starex (Gold Variant)?

Overall?
Performance?
Comfort?

[renzo_d10]

Ayaw mo Starex HVX ng Hancars? Looks better and has better features.

Anyway, naka-sakay na ako sa dalawa -- Isang Hi Ace Commuter, GL Grandia & isang Hyundai Starex TCi at Hyundai Starex VGT. Everything goes with the Starex IMHO. Although the Commuter is also nice, parang mas feel ko lang Starex in terms of ride comfort, performance and general features.

10 seater lang ang gold variant db? If you dont need the 4 rows, starex na. Mas comfortable kasi pwede stretch ang legs. Performance and comfort goes to starex. Ang disadvantage lang yata ng starex is the FC

[Harangody]

Tinanong ko to para sa Lolo namin. Ganito na lang. Why should we pick a Hyundai over a Toyota? Gusto talaga namin ng Starex, kaso may bad experience yung Tita namin sa Hyundai.

Yung bibili, old school magisip kaya Toyota talaga gusto.
Gagamitin toh for out of town trips.

[renzo_d10]

Kasi mas kumportable yung Starex? Ilan ba sila usually pag out of town? Iniisip ko kasi baka mas ok sakanila tipong captain seats kung di sila ganun karami. Mas ok kasi un sa bench type eh

Pero naka captain na ata yan sg at gs gold?

Nakasakay na ako ng super grandia and gl grandia, iba yung ride comfort nung dalawa. Alam ko iba kasi rear suspension nila. Cant speak for the grand starex, pero maganda ride ng super grandia for me.hindi matagtag and hindi nakakahilo. As for power, important i guess is torque hindi naman top speed diba? Both hiace and starex maganda power band. Pero if ako pipili, id rather choose the super grandia. Madali pa ingress and egress for all passengers.

Captain seats dn ata sa gs gold. Kung ayaw nya, edi alphard or previa na lang haha. Mas mhal lang ng 500k ang previa. Or kung konti lang sasakay, mid-size sedan like camry, accord, etc.

[bougartt]

I really dont like the ride of the Grandia.. Feeling ko sobrang bumpy..

[jdee12]

Kung Starex Gold eh mag Starex CVX na lang kayo ng Hancars. Mas mura pa sa GS Gold. If i'm not mistaken 400 nM ang torque ng GS * 2000 rpm. 174 Horsepower VGT Euro V engine.

Sir, grandia gl ba yan?

It depends on your preference and way of use.
If gagamitin mo as people mover ng more than 12, eh Hiace Commuter ka nalang, or pwede rin GL or SG kung less than 12.

Starex kasi more of car's suspension ang feeling nya. Matagtag lang talaga Hiace kahit Commuter man yan or GL, SG.

But remember mas dependable ang toyota in the long run, compared to Hyundai.

How about the Toyota D4D engine issue?

GS Gold has 2nd row captain's chairs, with a jumpseat option in the middle.

*Harangody,
Wouldn't the more car-like Previa be more comfortable for your lolo? How much space do you really need for him?

[vinj]

Pa-test drive mo ng Starex yung may ayaw sa Hyundai.

Between the two variants you're considering, i'd get the Starex. For lolos and lolas though, they may prefer the likes of a Previa (by order only), Alphard, Odyssey, Town and Country, etc.

[myk384]

Or kung gusto nila lolo at lola, Kia Carnival. Yung LWB can seat 8 and rides like a car para hindi matagtag

[IMm29]

My Lolo, Lola and handicapped Tita commonly use the Carnival LWB. Comfy ride, spacious and low step-in height/ minimum climb. 8 seater for loading.

[Harangody]

Kulang yung seats nung Previa at Alphard,yung Carnival naman, wala silang tiwala sa brand. Nung nag out of town kasi kami last week, 3 Fortuner pa yung ginamit.

[jdee12]

Mag Starex na lang kayo. Di niyo pagsisihan.

[dct]

Edi kulang upuan ng gold variant? 3 rows lang ata yun?

Maganda nga yung alphard , kaya lang ang lakas sa gas nito, lalo sa out of Town hehehe :sweat:
