Suzuki Ertiga 1.4 GLX AT vs Toyota Innova J 2.5 Diesel MT

[mr rad]

I have an 01 Crosswind XTO and an 04 Vios which I am selling at this time. Once one of these cars are sold I am looking at getting either a Suzuki Ertiga 1.4 GLX AT or Toyota Innova J 2.5 Diesel MT. Please comment on the pros and cons of both cars or if meron pang ibang pwedeng iconsider na under 900K lang sana. I was also looking at Mobilio before, pero the more I see the car on the streets, the more na parang hindi ko magustuhan yung looks niya, but that is just me. I am not in a hurry to buy a car, so I am still open to suggestions. Oo nga pala requirement ko is at least 7 seater and flat yung likod pag tinupi yung 3rd row para malagyan ng items sa business ni misis.

Sa 900k mo makakabili ka na ng 2012-2014 low mileage na SUV.

[ronw123w124]

Sa dalawa, hands down Innova ako pero if you can wait a bit then better, lalabas na kasi ang all new Innova

[erdiedizon]

Bro hands down din ako s innova;) but in your budget makahanap kana sa olx nang montero search around since your not in a hurry.

Thanks for the replies. Actually the low mileage SUV is a good suggestion. Kaya lang I failed to mention that I am planning on getting the brand new car through car loan, 30% downpayment probably and based on my computation around 900K car will fit the budget. The rest of the money that we'll get in selling our two cars will go sa business ni misis. Don't want to touch the savings din kasi. Hitting two birds in one stone ika nga, we'll upgrade our car and we'll have money to infuse dun sa business ni misis.

Innova din nga yung nasa isip ko ngayon, kaya lang isn't the Innova J too bare naman? I know it will still boil down to me. Pero I'm just getting your opinions to help me make the decision na hindi ko pagsisisihan.

If you're going to use it for business, Toyota Innova will be more robust. But the 3rd row seats won't fold flat. Yeah. the J model will really be bare.

makiki sawsaw na din:

I know from reading a lot of comments and reviews that Innova is way better than Ertiga, but budget wise, is it that worth it to get the Innova considering mga 200k and price diff?

Way better how? As far as the Innova's advantages are concerned, it has a diesel which means a lot more torque, has more space, has taller higher. But the Ertiga is also better than the Innova at other things, namely: 1) it's a lot lighter and more fuel efficient. 2) more comfortable and refined ride. 3) smaller chassis and far smaller turning radius means it's much more maneuverable than the Innova.

Both cars have their compromises as not everyone wants to drive around something as large and clunky as the Innova, but still want 7 seats. Given OP's needs though, I'd recommend the Innova because it's frame-on-ladder/pick-up platform means it ideal for carrying around heavier loads which I assume will be common for business.

If you only need the 3rd row seats every other day and/or you want something that's more efficient and easier to drive, the Ertiga would be a better buy.

Parang malayo silang ipag kumpara.
Sa ganitong comparison malamang innova ang panalo. Mas mahal ang innova pero mas malaki at mas malakas ang engine.
.
Kung avanza vs ertiga. Yan ang magka match. Kung look ang pag uusapan. Ertiga talaga.

[jefbuan]

for everyday use lamang talaga yung innova,,pero like me gagamitin ko lng yung car tuwing uuwi me pinas,,kinuha ko na lng mobilio

[Tj_abs]

Reliablity and easy to maintain and not hard to find spareparts, go for toyota innova. Ertiga is bang for the buck. Considering its price, features including its space but the problem is reliability and service. I could attest how ertiga behaves on the road. Ok siya idrive at Mas refine siya compare sa ladder frame of innova. But if the vehicle of your choice is for business, go for innova j diesel.

Sir walter is right. Toyota will be the right choice.

basically, car will be used for kids service to school, family car every weekends going to mall or trip out of town every 2-3 months, can transport dogs(in dog crates for dog shows) and can load a bike(mtb and rb) at the back in high altitude places(sn mateo rizal, pililia rizal almost every weekend, baguio-2-4x/yr), sagada- at least maybe 1x/yr).

I appreciate your reply and sorry for hijacking this thread.

Innova? Clunky? I don't think so.

[g.b.b]

ertiga (m/t) owner and innova m/t diesel here.

every good reviews you can trust for innova. i had it for 5yrs 2010-2015 and in fact i had separation anxiety after selling it but after owning an isuzu mux, nawala na yun anxiety pero pagod naman sa pag hugas lol

ertiga i got it 2.5weeks ago. too early to tell for good reviews but based on my experience, i can drive it like a car without the feel of AUV or MPV. i only driven it for 600kms yet and increasing but it's really comfortable and fun to drive. matipid din i can say and madali hugasan. hehe

Great insights sir. Salamat. So I guess if I take out the requirement that it will be used for business and that it would just be mainly for family use, the Ertiga gets the vote.
