Why is the Altis still selling so well?

[mbt]

Even if it's an old model, it still rules supreme in its class, and by a large margin too.

why do you think that is?

[Jun aka Pekto]

Maybe the price. Plus, Toyotas rank among the highest in build quality.

except for the d4ds?...hehehe

[mrpink]

it's a safe choice ..

[GlennSter]

it's no nonsense car kasi.it gives you the comfort, the styling without any compromise.

what you need and wan t in a car, nasa kaniya.

[Psylocke]

Because the gas tank doesn't fall off :D

[squala]

because it looks better than the top rival civic

It certainly looks better than the Civic, but I think it's top rival is already the Mazda 3.

Because the gas tank doesn't fall off :D

Hehe, nice one there. A reason why you shouldn't believe in those Japanese Car of the Year awards. I'm pretty sure the new Civic will automatically win this again, so guys, look into other factors before buying this car.

As for now, Altis is the best!

[finchy18]

comfort and quality

[ILuvDetailing]

because of the name "Toyota"

[niky]

All of the above. The name (definitely), the build quality and the reputation. Others may surpass it in terms of power, handling and amount of kit, but they can't overcome that general bias by the public... by the people who feel that it's "Toyota or nothing".

Plus the Altis is the ultimate non-car. Drive and forget... which is the way most non-car enthusiasts like it.

am one of the peeps here who is sitll in love with this car.... hehehe....
reasons? all of which, are stated above...

isa lang di ko gusto dito eh... yung interiors nung 1.8G model nila...

[ILuvDetailing]

I also like the interior, except for the "wood" trims..

[OTEP]

It's a good 'appliance' car. Drive and forget. A safe choice for those who don't want to give much thought into the car buying process.

-- madali maghanap ng piyesa; mura pa
-- fuel economy is top notch

[Autobeat]

At least for gas engines, the "Toyota" brand has made its mark in reliability in the Philippines.

[davy88]

it's definitely reliable and "for keeps" car, no problems at all

[Jun aka Pekto]

The design doesn't seem that old. This looks like the XRS I test drove. The dealer tried hard to make me trade in my old Dodge minivan for one, but not hard enough. It's a hoot to drive, though:

[kmo]

for me, been driving my altis m/t for 3+ years now masasabi ko lang never pa ako binigyan ng sakit ng ulo hehe as in very very reliable car comfy to drive may dating rin naman khit paano plus mura lang parts to source out problems lang na naencounter ko with this car are the windows na defect ata ng altis pero besides that wala talaga e fuel economy is excellent i get 10.5km/l mixed na tpos pag nag out of town pa napaabot ko dati 13km/l pero dami ko kilala mas mataas pa

for me i think ito na isa sa sulit na kotse that money can buy

[FPJ]

Toyota kasi eh.........
My Aunt just came from states for good(a retired nurse) decided to buy a Mazda3 dahil cutee daw...But after a week, Altis 1.8G ang nakita kong drive nya! Pinagalitan daw sya ng husband nya kung bakit daw Mazda! hehehe...as you said...brand concious ang mga pinoy!
