    Starting this thread for news/rumors regarding the next gen Avanza

    Toyota Avanza - Wikipedia

    The all-new 2022 Toyota Avanza's W100 model code revealed, could shed light on next-gen Alza |WapCar

    Without getting into the nitty gritty details, the forum post seemingly confirms the earlier rumours: the next-generation Toyota Avanza will be fitted with a naturally-aspirated 1.5-litre 2NR-VE petrol engine mated either to a CVT-type automatic or a five-speed manual transmission. These codes also revealed that a left-hand drive version of the next-gen Avanza is in the works as well.

    nice.. pero since small platform lang naman ang avanza, dapat gawin na nila FWD yan.. to have more space sa cabin..

    sa company namin, bumili ng toyota rush (almost same ng avanza) grabe sikip sa loob.. hindi comfortable yung upuan sa 2nd row.. kasi yung flooring ang taas

    when a colleague complained that his avanza's passenger seating was cramped,
    another colleague quipped,
    "get an innova".

    another added,
    "you don't know cramped, until you get an older gen swift."

    'daming pilosopo saming upisina.
    heh heh.

    i wonder,
    is the rush selling well nowadays?

    CVT type transmission na ang next avanza. malamang FWD na ito.

    sana nga.. kasi masyadong maliit ang body para sa RWD setup eh.. unless itaas pa nila ng husto.. kaso sigurado magigin unstable yan lalo sa kurbada..

    ang problem dun yung rear seats naka patong na sa flooring rise sa likod. tapos sobrang maiksi na yung 2nd row kaya wala na pwesto sa paanan.. tapos makitid pa

    The smaller engine might only be reserved on the Daihatsu Xenia (Rebadged Avanza).

    better for us consumers. pero in a way this may further cannibalize their own sales of the rush. lalo at naging mas refined ang avanza pero who am i to say. hula ko lang naman yun hehe

    Innova has the same platform as the Hilux and Fortuner, too expensive if they make it FWD

    Avanza and Rush use the same platform, "almost" same engine as the Vios. It really makes sense for the Avanza (and later the Rush) to be FWD with CVT.

    Currently it shares its chassis with the trucks, only if Toyota decides to move the Innova to a TNGA Corolla/Altis Platform.

    It doesnt seem to make sense for the innova though to switch to fwd with diesel engines being developed only for their BoF commercial vehicles.

    our neighbors have the Prius V and the Sienta (based on the B platform)

    How many Innova's do you think will sell locally if it had a 1.8L petrol engine with CVT?

    avanza and rush should be FWD... too small body that cabin space is compromised..

    the innova is big enough for the RWD setup.. baka maging parang mini alphard na yan if FWD

    Possibly much weaker sales if Toyota made the switch. I hope they will not do that in the future.

    Diesel option is a largest selling point of the Innova. That's why TMP axed the 2.0L gas engine.

    And Innova will the last of the breed of rear wheel driven MPVs when the all new Avanza/Xenia comes out.

    asked a car manufacturer why it is shifting to CVT,
    he answered,
    "because that is what the buying public wants".

    The Innova's 2GD-FTV cleared India's BSIV (similar to Euro 6) which is good news for us.

    I'm sure we'll see a diesel Innova until its next version.

    i am not sure...
    i have been using AT for years now. i do not see why i should be enamored away from it by the cvt.
    there is this small thought behind my mind of reliability issues of cvt on heavier vehicles..
