Innova J Diesel or J Gas

[asm_ph37]

Which is fuel efficient?

definitely go for the diesel.

i think the injector problems have been fixed since 2005.

since the J is only available in manual transmission, the diesel will be much easier to drive (lots more torque, so less need to shift gears).

the gas version only gets 6-7 km/L city, but the diesel gets 8-9 km/L supposedly. plus, diesel is cheaper.

i would probably get an innova J diesel as a 2nd car when i have the budget for it. i sat in an innova J and i was surprised. the interior is not bad, kahit de-ikot yung windows (no power windows). and the suspension is nice and soft! softer than our mazda3 in fact. rolls a lot though, not sporty at all.

Very true. Di kaya dahil sa 17's?

We only have 16's. But it's the pre-facelift which has the really hard ("sporty") suspension..

Still I never considered the Innova J kasi it was too utilitarian. But after riding one... it's a good car. Not that I would have gotten one (can't drive your expat colleagues around in one without losing a lot of face...) but we don't have kids, it's just me and my wife, and the Innova is far too large for my wife to drive.

Innova J diesel FTW!

If driven with a frugal right foot i do think the gas can hit 8-9km/L in the city (CMIIW). But definitely the diesel is a more efficient choice.

[dieselNUBI]

J gas is P763K
J diesel is P813K

diff of 50 thousand pesos.

i have hiluxE diesel and ang sarap i drive. magaan, malakas hatak. they have the same engine and it's really a nice fun engine to drive with.

now i have ridden my cousin's innova J gas. of course mas tahimik, mas matulin pero malakas ang consumption. Why did he get the gas variant? he only uses it on weekends and as a coding car. He has a diesel fed tamaraw Fx as daily car=)

if ur gona end up using innova as ur daily car. then go diesel. if not. gas lang. then use the extra 50k pesos for gas. =)

My J-gas hits 8 - 9 kms/li city driving, i.e. if I drive 2 hrs or under over 30 kms. Over 2 hrs over 30 kms., it's 7.5 - 8 kms/li.
