looks like they are already sharing engines across the different product lines...

IMO, it's just sufficient for a van. it is already a big improvement over the old engines.

O, balik rear leaf springs na naman. Yung grandia and super grandia line nila were already rear coil springs.

GL ulit ang upcoming model? Siguro Grandia and Super Grandia (the coil spring models) should not be far behind.

The sliding windows look very awkward. I wish they stayed with flush glass. No one opens the windows on these things anyways.

Pang shuttle service lang yung Commuter version,pero at least mas mura siya kaysa sa Nissan Urvan Estate at Hyundai Starex Jumbo CRDI.Yung GL sana ay Automatic para mas masaya.

saw the all new Hi-Ace during my lunch break in Toyota Pasong Tamo. I understand kung bakit ganun siya ka-bare kasi Commuter variant kasi siya. Anyway, the all new Hi-Ace is SO BIG! I hope the Grandia and the Super Grandia will look way better than the previous model.
