140km lang ang top speed nang alterra? ang bagal pala! hehehe!![]()
Sa Isuzu Makati meron Test Unit for Isuzu Alterra pero this is not the 2007 Model. The Test Unit is the 2005 Model pero same engine naman to with the 2007 Model.
Mukhang Top Speed lang tinitingnan mo sa pagpili ng Car ha.
Pre, advice lang - ok lang naman if you go for a Car with Higher Top Speed limit if that is the way you really drive but even of you get a car with higher top speed limit, di mo din magagamit most of the time unless you always use NLEX or Start Toll Way pero kahit jan may mga speed limit na 100kph lang.
So, make a wise decision sa pagpili. Think kung saan mo talaga gagamitin and the roads you will always use. Then based on these consideration, doon ka pumili ng car na bibilhin mo.
True.
NVH: Alterra > Fortuner
Fuel consumption: Alterra mas matipid vs Fortuner (kahit for the 2.5D4D)
PMS maintenance: Mas mahal Alterra (eg: Alterra 1500Km 4300pesos, Fortuner 1000Km 1300pesos)
Alterra: ganito ang sound when you close the door: PLAK, while the Fortuner: BLUG)
salamat po sa mga advise ninyo mga bossing!ano po pala yung NVH noise na yan?
bakit din po mahal ang PMS nang alterra kesa sa fortuner?
matibay din po ba suspension nang alterra pag dating sa mga lubak lubak na daan? hehehe! minsan po kasi byahe namin sa bicol medyo lubak lubak ang daan.![]()
matibay naman ang suspension ng Alterra. My Alterra already traveled 139T km but so far no problems yet. Alterra is indeed durable compared to other SUV in it’s class. This is one dependable SUV both on pave highways and rough road. Fuel Efficient is even better compared to other brands even if the car actually has a large engine displacement.
May be that’s why it is more expensive than other SUV (in it’s class)
The maximum speed that I attained is 160KPH at NLEX. The car is still capable of attaining higher speeds but I didn’t take the risk anymore.
Regarding your 2nd option (Grand Starex), I had bad experiences before with Hyundai but hopefully their products will improve on reliability section in the future…
PS. Bakit ganu feedback ng ibang tao sa Alterra e okay naman ang performance. Actually mas okay pa kaysa sa Fortuner kaya maraming tao mag-papalit ng FORTUNER nila… hehehe.
Peace to all Fortuner owners out there!![]()
Externally kasi it does not look maporma compared to Everest, Fortuner, and Santa Fe. I think yon lang. I don't think it is because of the Isuzu badge.
Look at Dmax and Trooper, love naman sila dito except those troopers na may problem sa injectors.
Isa pa ung crosswind sa hate dito ng mga members kesyo mausok daw and matagtag.
They don't look at the reliability and fuel efficiency side of the Isuzu Brand.
Isuzu pa, known for trucks and diesel engine technology.
It is just that the Alterra is hindi maporma kaya ganon. Pero performance-wise, this is great.
Nabasa ko sa isang website na among the Japanese Diesel Engine Manufacturers, Isuzu ang napili na mag-provide ng vehicels sa isang Japanese Expedition sa North Pole.
Maiba nga pala, bakit ung Alterra walang separate na radiator for its Turbo compared to my SF?
ok nga po ang alterra pag dating sa engine technology nya. ok din naman yung interior nya except sa 3rd row seat. hirap lang pumasok sa likod.salamat po sa mga tsikoteers na nag share nang opinions nila. more power!

Pre, among Everest, Fortuner, and Santa Fe, Alterra ang pinakamaluwag ang 3rd row seat but that of the Santa Fe is more comfortable due to its elevation from the flooring.
Sa Fortuner naman, nakalapag lang din sa sahig when unfolded pero the flooring has a trench for leg room kaya di mo feel na nakasalampak ka.
Everest and Alterra has same configuration on 3rd Row Seat - nakalapag lang din sa sahig and not elevated kaya ung tuhod mo nakataas. Sa Eve nga lang walang headrest pero sa Alterra meron.
Alterra naman ang may pinakamalaking luggage space after the 3rd Row Seat. Pansinin mo. Si SF naman ang may pinakamaliit na luggage space after the 3rd row seat.
