adventure

[XTO]

crosswind

Efficiency: Has to be a toss-up between the Crosswind's direct injection and the Innova's D-4D.

Durability: I'm banking on Toyota.

Adventure

[Radical!]

I had a Crosswind XTO for my personal car which I used to and from the office while our office's service vehicle was a Revo which I used during sales calls.

The Crosswind had very frugal fuel use but was a bit spartan in terms of drivability, ergonomics and NVH compared to the Revo and Adventure.

The revo was a better drive because it has a car-like rack and pinion steering, while the crosswind is a 'recirculating ball type' or jeepney type steering. In spite of them having semi-ellipical leaf springs behind, the revo's rear suspension was better 'tuned' for comfort. Turn-signal stalks, buttons, gauges on the Revo are typical toyota which are all within finger/arms length and action is toyota precise while the crosswind was more truck-like.

The GM of Isuzu Manila actually told me that the revo is a better car if you drive it yourself but in the end, I still chose the crosswind because of the engine's power/fuel economy and AT, which was not available on the Revo (diesel) at that time.

the Mitsu AUV provides adequate punch and provides the most muscle among the diesels (except the Innova) however it loses out in the mileage race though fuel consumption is acceptable, provides car-like comfort due to low NVH levels just like that of a typical petrol car however occupants may feel osterized by it's stiff suspension though that stiff suspension has allowed Adventure to tackle corners as clean as possible.

But with Innova out there, I think this Innova provides the balance of punch and fuel efficiency.

The only problem at the moment with Innova's D-4D is the choking problem.

If you get a gas powered engine innova, but if diesel crosswind. But if your after price adventure cause mitsubishi is giving out lots of discounts
