2023 (facelift) Suzuki S-Presso

[n_spinner06]

I've never seen an AGS car pa, how does an automatic manual work, ano ito parang paddle shifter na +- lang, clutch is automatic?

Neither have i...but if i understand correctly, you can operate it like a regular automatic. Put it in D and it will do the rest...or manual option +-.

... impressive... on paper.
any confirmation from actual driver experience?

during my younger days... I remember seeing surplus Ponys and Stellars (Hyundai) na manual pero walang clutch. There's a button sa gear shifter na you have to press before changing gears... Only difference is that walang "Drive" mode

Go na doc, this is much cheaper than Toyota Raize.
Pero tempting din si Ice Cream EV due to coding exemption.

Yung AC kaya ng Spresso, malamig ba?
Yung sa manual na Suzuki Alto kasi, layo ng lamig nya.
Mas malamig ba talaga AC ng higher cc engines compare to lower ones?

I kind of like it. Especially the orange colored ones [emoji521]

2023 Suzuki S-Presso AGS review: The S-Presso finally goes ‘automatic’ | Top Gear Philippines

the vios seems like a good buy.
all them vios taxis can't be wrong.

Here's the thing, ang hirap naman pala kumuha ng base Vios eh. According to the SA's I've spoken to bihira lang talaga magka stock.
Independent taxis and even companies with fleets get the "J" model na rin daw most of the time. Cash price quoted to me (w/ discount) is P721,000. - A little overpriced too in my opinion, when it seems that the only difference from the base version are the wheels (or is it hubcaps lang ba?)

The Wigo E (M/T) on the other hand, had a cash sticker price of P575,200. Daihat... err, Toyota pa. (vs. this Suzuki's P588,000)

Choosing between a Wigo A/T or the S-Presso AGS.

I like the quirky design of the S-Presso but I have a question... Is it not drive-by-wire? From most of the video reviews and instructional videos I've watched, if you drive the AGS set to D, you'll still need to let off on the gas pedal during automatic shifting to reduce shift-shock.

Traditional A/T kasi, bahala ECU sa throttle command para hindi mag over-rev in-between gear changes.

like the reviewer said,
one has to get used to it.
only the shifting of the gears is hands-free. the gears are still traditional MT-type gears, but are shifted electronically.
one still has to lift one's foot to down-speed the rpm to cue the shifting, just like MT driving.
i haven't tried driving it yet, but sitting in the demo model... naliliitan ako sa driver's seat. it's too narrow for fatty me.
