2012 Chevrolet Spin

[niky]

Review up here:

Chevrolet Spin LTZ

Also got 18+ km/l on the highway. Didn't get very good economy in traffic, but traffic is getting bad around here this close to Christmas.

[Walter]

Any news regarding the supply of 1.5 LTZ Spin? Can anyone suggest dealer and SA contact number? Is Chevrolet Makati good?

As of now we reserved for 1 unit at chevy laguna. Walang stock sa alabang, laguna and lipa. Lahat sila sinabi by january magrerelease daw po ng 100 units ng gas. Dumami ung stocks diesel variant nila dahil in demand ito last year kaya un ang mas pinrioritize nila. Ngayon naman wala na talaga gas
Hehe. Konting tiis lang.
Is it just me na naawkward sa itsura ng likod ng spin? haha

That makes the two of us. Kung directly tignan sa likod parang ok naman sa paningin ko pero pang nasa side angle na ng rear view, parang alanganin talaga sa akin. :D

Since last year yung available na diesel variant nila is ung LS .. yung Top of the line LTZ diesel variant hindi pa din available hanggang ngayon ..

[oryx1001]

ala pa ba bagong info regarding sa spin?alin ba ang maganda diesel ba o un gas?

In house ng Chevrolet. Made my VM Motori Italia. JV nila ng Fiat

Nagpapaniwala naman kayo agad kay arsen na kilalang anti Chevy. In house kaya ng Chevy ang 1.3L diesel. Saw it already, it sports both a GM badge and a VM Motori badge like the Trailblazer and Colorado. VM Motori is 50% owned by GM and 50% owned by Fiat.

Clarified this with our friends in TCCCI-Chevrolet Phils. They are confirming whether the diesel engine is from VM Motori but it's 100% not from Tata Motors according to them.

EDIT:
Just took a call from TCCCI. Engine is Fiat designed, manufacturing is managed by GM Powertrain Torino. Engine is being assembled in Brazil using local Brazilian parts with the exception of the engine block and the common rail. Engine block came from Italy, Common rail is Bosch and came from Germany.

Tata also uses this engine is some of their cars but its already assembled by Fiat na.

So di ba hindi in-house? Heheh

Payo ko lang wag basta magpapaniwala lalo na sa mga sales people. Do some elementary studies din pag may time. Let say geography.

Look at the world map if what sales people says make sense because its against the art of SCM (Supply Chain Management).

Spin is assembled in Indonesia.
Engine assembled in Brazil?
Engine block from Italy? and sent to Brazil for final assembly? Before sending to Indonesia?

Yes its maybe true that engine block is from Italy dahil land travel lang pwede na marating ang Poland where 1.3 engines for the European market are being assembled and mostly labelled as ECOTEC.

Also why GM will assemble SDE (Small Diesel Engine) in Brazil if there is no market for small diesel vehicles. Dahil bawal.
Pagkakaalam ko, wala ngang Spin na 1.3 diesel variance sa Brazil. Di ba? Pakitanong nga ulet si TCCI. Heheh

Besides, what is wrong if gawa sa India na di hamak na mas malapit sa Indonesia at mura pa labor cost? Meron naman yan quality assurance ni Fiat dahil nga JV ang facility.

Any owner feedback on the diesel variant of the Spin?

Also, any news when the automatic variant is coming out? Looking for a people hauler aside from the innova.

[JOSMITH]

Diesel LS model. FC: 20km/liter hiway; 14kms/liter city. Very stable even at 120kph Hopefully FC will improve overtime. Enjoyed the turbo-charge feature di nabibitin sa overtaking Very silent sa loob. I've been driving Vios 2008 model, cant avoid to compare that Spin is far better at lakas humatak kahit loaded with 6 adults. No regret and so far satisfied ako sa Chevrolet Spin LS

Hi guys! I've been to 3 Chevrolet dealers (Trailblazer Club's dealer partners) in the last 3 weeks. Most of the Spins I've seen are the LS Diesel variants. No LTZ Diesel.

By the way, for the owners, I highly encourage you guys to form your own Spin Club Philippines. Mas madaling makipagcoordinate regarding problems and issues and mas madali niyo pang matutulungan each other. Not only that, may direct access pa kayo sa Chevrolet Philippines and you guys will be recognized by them. We in the Trailblazer Club are doing that. Sobrang dali makipagcoordinate with our 3 dealer partners and Chevy Philippines. Just a friendly suggestion.

Cant compare coz i never drove AVANZA before. But in terms of size mas maluwag ng konti ang Spin. Style, i vote Spin and that's for me. Price i cant compare since Avanza dont have Diesel model. I just acquired my Spin LS model last Dec 23. My choice was an LTZ model but coz i need it very urgent i settled the LS model which is 100K cheaper than LTZ model. If you don't mind 100K price or 40K difference you may settle the Diesel LTZ or A/T LTZ coz they are loaded with stuffs like mags, Air bags, ABS, roof rail, fog lights etc

Reserved last friday ng Very Berry Red LTZ diesel. Hopefully next week makuha na namin yung unit. Torned between Spin, Innova and Hilux/Strada. Ang naging deciding factor namin is the maintenance cost. Will post pics ASAP. :D

How i wish na dumating na ang LTZ diesel .. August 2013 pa kami nagaantay ee

[Calistro]

Maintenance cost sir? Can you share the details?

Comparing an mini MPV to an MPV ang Pickup truck, maintenance cost should be lower. Engine oil pa lang, 1.3 comparing to 2.5 engine, thats about twice sa dami ng gagamit per interval. How about tear and wear parts such as tires, brakes, etc. Sure, mas mahal maintenance sa casa ng chevy. But im not planning to do it in 5 years. 3 years lang ok na, sala labas na yung iba.

Sa mga naghahanap ng Spin, dito sa Chevrolet Pasong Tamo madami ako nakikitang brand new Spin na naka park sa gilid at harap nila... Pero mga white at gray lang. Di ko lang alam kung anong variant sila. Hehe...
