    Around 20k separating both cars.

    Corolla would be more practical in the City, but the Civic would be more exciting...

    Toyota Corolla Altis 1.8 V HV – P1,580,000
    Honda Civic RS Turbo CVT - P 1,608,000.00

    I would prefer the 1.6V over the two. If only we could find out the cost of battery replacement of the hybrid...locally...

    I was initially day dreaming of spending zero gas during the slow moving traffic of EDSA...

    Then you made me remember that the Prius recommends a battery change after 8 years.

    chrisfix on youtube replaced the battery pack on a prius. it was a good video. i think we can do it too. its the sourcing that im thinking about and the pricing. if 3rd party suppliers are ok then maybe its a good move to go hybrid.

    I would still go with the Civic. Since we are talking about cars near the 2M mark, I would go for the new Accord turbo instead.

    It's actually an easy decision.

    If you want fast: Civic (no Honda Sensing!)

    If you want fuel economy and a safer car: Corolla (Safety Sense)
    But walang Apple Car Play and Android Auto ang Corolla I think.

    Mukhang malaki lang sa labas.. pero masikip sa loob.. lalo na sa likod.. masyadong mababa yung roofline na tatama ulo mo pag baba

    Question lang. iba ba ang hybrid implementation ng corolla vs sa prius?

    I just watched a video wherein ang hyundai ionic is compared to a prius. sa presyo kasi magkalapit na magkalapit ang ionic at corolla hybrid at 1.580m.

    Thanks.

    They have the same drive train, so I think it's virtually the same.

    I would pick the altis hybrid. 5 years warranty on the battery if the same with other countries. My friends camry hybrid sa HK going on 7 years plus na, wala pa naman degradation of battery according to Toyota HK. Mas nauna pa bumigay ung car battery nya. And he only gasses up once a month. For a heavy user like me (close to 100km a day), mas sulit ito I think for me.

    Although, what Im really aiming for is the Geely Coolray PHEV haha

    Is it for the Tax or pricing implementation? Iba sir, as the Corolla Altis is made in Thailand, compared to Prius, which is made in Japan. Sadly the Prius is not qualified for JPEPA, hence the higher price.

    Nissan Leaf 'don't buy' warning ($33k battery replacement bill) | Auto Expert John Cadogan - YouTube

    Not a rola.
    But a hybrid with 5 yr warranty

    Just saying, batteries will degrade faster here cause of the weather.

    Ok..

    Eto po..

    Altis Hybrid... Kung Provincial area at wala namang baha at secured at naka-lilim ang parking.. Go for it!

    Why? and Bakit?


    Hybrid... Ultra sensitive yan... Hindi Practical sa NCR area.. lalo sa open parking. Once na pinasok ang electrical components ng mababait na daga,. Dehins yan, saka sa baha, grounded lahat ng electrical... magiging tolonggis ang hybrid...

    damay damay lahat ng electrical....

    Kung sa Civic RS, purely "Drive-By-Wire", pero once mamabait na daga kainin yung electrical components... still tatabo pa rin ang sasakyan.. pero meron CEL indication at ibang warning indication(s).. sa dashboard...


    Fan ako ng CVT.. pero sa "Hybrid".. pero sa mechanical engine ECU related... dulas ang CVT lalo sa abusive usage....

    Actually no, meron sa Civic X Phil ni ngatngat ng daga engine bay nya, car can be started but can't be driven.

    Had to be towed.

    Actually your argument makes no sense at all.

    Don't forget about Honda's oil dilution issues if you're leaning toward the Civic.

    Hay... experiencing rat infestation in our parking area.

    Tried peppermint infused cotton ball on entry points, they remove and take it out of the car.

    Tried mothballs... they **** beside it

    Tried lighting and open hood, they pee on the engine cover.

    Really dont know what i can do to stop them from doing so.
