Lancer EX GTA vs ASX GLS 4x2 CVT?

I just don't like the Lancer. It's not fuel efficient and the shifts in auto mode are very sluggish. For me the Lancer copied heavily the Mazda 3. Plus having a GT-A is like having a pseudo-Evo. OT: the Evo X nga pala is gonna be the last Evo from Mitsubishi.

The Lancer EX CVT is not sluggish (well, from a dead stop, it acts like any other A/T). Once rolling, the CVT is just as fast as the M/T. Niky and I had the opportunity to drive the GTA and GT variants back-to-back and chased each other around the test drive area. Both cars are just as fast.

The reason why the CVT feels sluggish is the smoother delivery of power from the CVT. I can attest to this since my other car (a Corolla) uses a traditional A/T and power delivery from the CVT feels very different. Smooth with no transitions for each "gear' since there is no gears. With the Lancer EX CVT, the engine just revs up to a certain RPM level and stays there while the speed increases (along with the tranny CVT ratio).

I'd take the GT-A. well, it's kinda difficult to choose. my one point goes to the GT-A.

how about the Hyundai Tucson 2.0L Theta II GLS 2WD sir? 1,158,000 siya di hamak na mas mura kaysa sa ASX at tingin ko eh mas ayos din.

di lang siguro talaga ako fan ng ASX, pero kung 2 choices lang talaga sa EX nalang ako

Yeah Tucson talaga that's why the ASX is not a hot seller its the presence of the Tucson...

My vote goes to the ASX since I like the higher ride height and the bigger cargo area when the need arises. And since it's a CUV, it looks more expensive than a sedan. hehe
