2012 Chevrolet Spin

[dale323]

Actually, the engine itself is the selling point ng spin diesel. If you need a powerful engine, andyan ang mga higher displacement turdo diesel such as innova and carens. But in a heavy traffic situation, you wont need that much power. Kung tama nga ang nsa brochure na 75hp, thats just as strong as an adventure or a crosswind. And due to lower displacement ng engine, mas matipid sya kung ikkumpara sa higher displacment engine. Hay... Ang tagal kasi dumating ng ltz diesel para maconfirm ko kung ok lang ung power and torque figures nya. Lagpas one month na kami
nagaantay, puro ls lang ang dumarating.

I will be test driving the diesel Spin this Saturday at Chevrolet Makati. I will give my review here

Exactly, the careens is a bigger MPV and a more powerful engine, and an AT at that.

The 798k price is ok if for example, the engine had at least 1.6L. But at 1.3L, then make it a family hauler (it has 7seater) and the condition of diesel here in our country, as well as worsening stop ang go traffic situation, I'm thinking that engine will be exhausted to its limits in 3-5 years time,

Better market it as a 5-seater na lang to be safe .. Of course, Chevy salespeople will claim it's diesel, it has high torque. That is true also because that has always been the case if you have brand new crdi. It'll always be jumpy when it's new ..

Not exactly. The carens actually is quite a bit shorter in length albeit a slightly longer wheelbase, has almost the same elbow room and has less cargo space if all the seats are up compared with the same configuration as the spin. The carens will also have less total cargo space with all the seats folded flat down compared to the spin with the second row tumbled down and the third row removed. Legroom at the second row is almost the same. The advantages of the carens are car-like ride/refinement, car-like engine power/response and flat folding split seats on all rows.

As for the engine, it will shine amongst the rest of the diesel AUV's in stop and go fuel economy because it will only sip diesel like a 1.3L. In the highway, it will say goodbye to any diesel revo, crosswind or adventure (except for the Innova) because aside from the power to weight ratio, it's peak torque is higher than all the 3 diesel variants mentioned, thanks to its turbo. The crosswind's engine is just pfffft despite also having a turbo.


If comparing it to the Innova, the Innova E diesel will definitely give the diesel LTZ a run for its money.

at last .. after 6 months of waiting ..kanina lang we got our black LTZ diesel spin .. drove from greenhills to san mateo , san mateo to makati .. mas okay yung hatak nya compared to adventure/innova/avanza .. so far satisfied ako

The Carens is longer than the Spin and has a heck of a lot more room in the second row. There's a 130mm difference in the wheelbase.

The Spin's second row is decent, but it's smaller than the Carens' second row... the Avanza's second row and the APV's second row... the only advantage it has over its price-competitors is elbow room.

And the Spin's cargo floor area, with the third row up or down, is smaller than the Avanza's.

Hello Sir! Kamusta naman ang FC mo on your run?

Got to test drive the diesel LS variant yesterday courtesy of Chevrolet Makati. The 75 ps and 190 Nm of torque is actually an understatement. The acceleration feels more powerful than the paper specs The engine sound is as quiet as the 1.6L diesel engine of the Accent

very true. same observation & experience here. My brother who also using my Spin CRDi LS was amazed the aggressiveness and smoothness despite the engine size

I need a new car for 7 passengers. Innova is out of the list. Been there, done that.
Dapat automatic for an old guy like me who is tired of manual cars.

Carens is too expensive at 1.2M with Start/Stop button. Ang baba pa ng chin. Palagi kong nababangga sa parking.

Livina is too narrow and uninspiring. Abot ko ang opposite window withouth stretching too much.

Avanza is too narrow also and is taxi material.

Spin na lang ba ang natitirang MPV option sa Pinas? I like the interiors and 6 speed AT at low NVH daw. At di sya taxi

Suzuki Ertiga. Last Dec 2013 Suzuki enticed us to select Ertiga over Spin. They said it will be released by January 2014 i am not sure if already available na sa atin ngayon yung Ertiga. I
