Weird... A car with a USB port but no power outlet.

I saw this also just last week when i happened by a unit being delivered at the office. No power socket for the 1.5L just as well.

Aki, parang FC lang ng Suzuki APV a/t we had as a service car at the office before (6km/L++); and the APV has even better interior space.

depende sa route at driving style yang FC.. masyadong mababa yang 5 to 6 km / liter.. most likely around 7 to 8km / liter ang 1.5G a/t in worst city traffic, some even get 8 to 9 km / liter..

Can't expect too much from a small engine mated to an automatic carrying such a heavy load in traffic. In mixed driving, the 1.5 AT gets about 9-11 km/l.

Problem is her daily route, from qc going to caloocan via edsa on a rush hour then malabon via mc arthur hway. Shopping malls trips plus some meetings then back to qc via edsa again on a rush hour. A 6 to 7km/liter in my calculation with this kind of daily route.

What are the other options of your mom?

Carens
Soul

Innova sana but its too big for her since she wants to drive again and doesnt want our driver to drive her around the metro.

Her budget is 1.1 at the most.

Any suggestion?

Almost anything with an automatic within that price range will be a guzzler in city traffic.

If she doesn't need seven seats, then she should consider looking at cars like the Elantra or even a Jazz. Both have excellent cargo capacity.

OT na tayo. Hehe lagot tayo sa toyota people. I will just start a new topic, medyo my mom is in a hurry to get herself a new UV.

reason daw kaya walang power socket because it may cause electrical failure leading to fire
sabi ng nakausap namin sa Toyota

pwede naman magpakabit sa labas but warranty will be voided

Thats what a the cigar lighter fuse is for. Another agent alibi perhaps jist to downplay the missing item. Even the current vios has a lighter and units arent exactly going up in flames
