I wonder on why they still stick with 4 AT??

Because it's already tried and tested. Reliable. For a 1.4L engine, 4AT tranny should suffice as it spreads good torque on all gears.

Same with Honda's unchanged 1.5 engine(old but gold) shared across City, Jazz, BR-V and Mobilio. Why change it if it's working fine and delivers good output.

in my opinion, manufacturers are in a rush to put cvts in the showroom, "because that is what the customer is looking for".

personally, between cvt and 4at, i'd get the 4at.

True. The ertiga responds impressively when you push the "pedal to the metal". Our other suzuki apv 1.6 matic does not respond this way. Walang kick everytime you floor the pedal really.

Don't forget the Civic and the Accord, it has the L15 engine also but with turbo

Agree with axing the Ciaz. Gastos lang sa kanila yun, nobody likes the car enough to actually buy it, and they end up having to stock parts and train their techs to support it.

Vitara is a shell of its former self. Used to be a relatively small but utilitarian SUV with real 4x4 cred. Ginawang soft-roader. I agree they should just axe this model as well.

Jimny OTOH is selling very well, only limited by the supply.
