Toyota should redesign their rims... ang papangit ng stock rims ng Toyota IMO lang.

So wala pa ring linaw kung darating nga. I remember sa isang column sa Phil Star by the end of 2004, avanza should be coming to the Phil.

Hayyyy.... maghintay...maghintay..maghintay...

According to a thread in motioncars, the Avanza will be introduced here in March. Hindi na daw pwede gawing taxi ang Vios (oh common! they have said that before). The Avanza daw will be allowed to be turned into a taxi. If its really going to be introduced here, it should be priced cheaper than the innova J.

anyway, repost ko lang yung specs:

compared with the vios:

weight: 925 - 930kg
hp: 85bhp/600rpm
torque: 122Nm/4000-4400rpm

the avanza has:

-- 4hp more horsepower;
-- almost same torque, but at lower rpms(is 3200rpm still considered low?)
-- 165-175kg more weight(understandably)

any diesel versions coming out? it's about time we saw some light duty diesels under the hood(e.g. matrix)

oooooh...panlaban sa APV? hehhh

I don't think they will introduce this here in the Phil. since Innova already got it's tremendous share of the market after replacing the Revo. Though in Indonesia and Malaysia, the Avanza has made great recognition.

They'll introduce that here sa March. Bali yun yung magiging 'pang-masa' na ilalabas nila, para tumaas yung 'prestige' ng Vios.

Bawal na gawing taxi yung Vios, that's their first step. Then ilalabas nila itong Avanza at a very cheap price, Php550,000.00 lang daw.

Kasi diba, kung hindi nila yan ilalabas dito, eh ano na ang gagawing taxi, diba?

march pa po? sure na? hehehe haaaaaaaaay .. tagal pa. =)

**carlocaraddict** · November 28th, 2005 09:38 PM

so bawal na gawing taxi ang vios. Parang matagal ko na narinig sa toyota yan hehehehe. Anyway, the Avanza is still more expensive than the base Vios (if we base it on what Bry posted above). Kung totoo yung price ng Avanza na 550k, mas mahal pa rin siya sa Vios because the Vios J is retailed at 543k.
