    So for example for family use within the city and occasional long drives to provinces like Manila-Bicol and Manila to other provinces..which would be much better the AT or MT? Diesel or Gas? I'm planning to own one sana given the much cheaper price...Hopefully meron mag post ng Full Specs nya besides the short specs mentioned above..like ano mga added features nya both sa exterior and interior. as well as mga safety features....
    Also ano po take nyo about its handling and stability..thanks

    Check mo to. Road test ng Spin sa Indonesia.
    Kung family use lang within the city, ok na rin ung Gas. Pero pag long drives na loaded kayo, mas ok diesel. Meron ako 1.3 avanza dati, although kaya naman, ramdam mo hirap na ung makina pag puno tsaka paahon. kelangan palagi ka naka bwelo pag paakyat.

    Sana maglabas na rin toyota ng diesel avanza para mas gumanda competition at mas marami pagpilian mga consumers. tutal matagal na rin ginagamit sa euro market ung 1.4 D4D engine.

    Petrol engines sound too underpowered, even the 1.8L SOHC 8-valve used in Latin American versions feels more suitable. But the Diesel version is a good option...

    Found this review of Spin from Indonesian website below:

    Road Test - Chevrolet Spin LTZ 1.5 M/T - CarMall

    From the above review, the A/C vents seem to be built into the ceiling like the Trailblazer:

    "...Now let's switch to the second row. The feature the Chevrolet counts on here is the double blower AC. the holes of which are integrated to the ceiling. This is definitely different from most double blower units that occupy the headroom on the second row. Additionally the AC can be adjusted by the second row passengers..."

    In the new-car section of the same website, the line-up includes a 1.3 diesel putting out 75 bhp and 190 nm. The power isn't much better than a 1.2L gasoline engine's, but the torque output beats many 1.8L gasoline engines.

    A small MPV with a diesel -- very interesting!

    1.3 CRDi with 190 NM torque? That's more torque than a typical 1.8L gasoline engine. Very interesting!

    There's mention of AC vents integrated into the ceiling in the Indonesian review below:

    "Now let's switch to the second row. The feature the Chevrolet Spin counts on here is the double blower AC, the holes of which are integrated to the ceiling. This is definitely different from most double blower units that occupy the headroom on the second row. Additionally, the AC can be adjusted by the second row passengers."
