Mitsu Fusion, Toyota Innova or Kia Carens?

[papabong]

Innova pa rin... nasabi na nila lahat...

Good luck...and drive safely...

I'd say Carens first, Innova second.

Until the Fuzion becomes available with either a diesel engine or a manual transmission, stay as far away from it as possible.

carens for me because of the CRDi.

[quote=Starex_Gold;875151]Innova parin ako. maganda sana yung Fuzion kung may diesel variant. agree ako sa mga nagsasabing advance ang CRDi engines ng Hyundai & Kia kasi matagal na silang may CRDi. Sa palagay ko hindi nila matatalo ang Innova.

Design= Innova
Convinience= Innova
ride comfort & size= Innova
Engine= Carens CRDi
Interior= Fuzion

hindi lahat ng D-4D Innovas may engine problem and sabi ng pinsan ko na inayos na raw yun ng Toyota. Kasi 2007 model na Innova D-4D ng pinsan ko at nakaka 13,+++ kms na pero wala pang engine problem.[/quote



IMO it would be Innova going head to head against the kia carens,no offense to fuzion owners for obvious reasons( no diesel varaint) unless you don't mind spending your fortune for fuel,bottom line is your "needs" will be the deciding factor. if you want comfort, speed and the looks i think carens is the choice. if you prefer for a bigger family car i'd recommend innova. but here are some features you might want to consider

innova
2 variants (gas & diesel)
*heard some problems with D4d engines
-definitely reliable except for some "minors" choking problems probably solve by now
-higher ground clearance (won't be having problem w/ floods)
-looks is good
-truck like platform (sturdy ride compare to car platform)

carens
2 variants (gas & diesel/crdi)
- korean made ( a not so good auto history but most improved auto manufacturer
- lower ground clearance (good solid footing)
- good design
- car like platform (soft/ comfortable ride)
i hope this would help...
Merry Christmas everyone! PEACE

Innova is a nice car, Carens is a nice car also. I tried Innova (since my brother have one) and I am satisfied with it. Currently I am considering Carens pero d ko pa cya try, hindi lang ako kasya sa 3rd row seat (5'8 po ako)

Try ko yun sa Innova. Fusion out of the equation dahil lakas gas. (sana may diesel engine na lalabas)

Things need to do between Innova and Carens
1. Test drive Carens
2. Try the 3rd row seat of Innova again

carens here.
fusion, although the GLS sports edition really looks great, i've heard its a bit of thirsty in fuel.

"Syempre sa Innova ako, Toyota eh, Japanese brand ito!! Subok na matibay! Subok na Matatag!" - this was what my brother-in-law told me when I asked him why he'd bought an Innova E D4D October last year.

I've chosen Carens over Innova because of 4 things:
1. Price (the Carens LX MT is cheaper that an Innova E)
2. Comfort for my growing family (You can make d 2nd row seat into a bed)
3. CRDi Engine (vs a D4D)
4. Car like ride (Carens ride is more car-like than Innova)
