Toyota Avanza - darating ba dito sa 'Pinas

Baka airport taxi puwede tong Avanza pero mas bagay yung Vios na taxi(bawal sa ibang dealers to pero sa iba ay puwede).Pag dumating to siguradong patay raw ang sales ng Innova J taxis

eggman: Ngayon bawal na sa lahat ng dealers. Unless you have connections, of course.

carlocaraddict: Yup masmahal pa rin ng kaunti yung Avanza vs. the base model na Vios, pero for what it's worth mas-"bang for your buck" ang Avanza. Masmadaming pasahero masasakay eh. ;)

bawal na gawin taxi...eh yun nga bumubuhay sa Toyota eh...fleet sales for PublicTrans consumption....

I guess that's where the Avanza comes in.

Pero I disagree na fleet sales for public transport groups ang bumubuhay sa Toyota. Madami din naman silang sales sa mga private users.

anyway, repost ko lang yung specs:
Type 5 door MPV
ENGINE
Model K3-VE
Type Inline 4 Cylinder DOHC 16V VVT-i
Displacement 1,298cc
Bore and Stroke 72.0mm x 79.7mm
Compression Ratio 10:1
Transmission Manual 5-speed
Drive Layout FF (front engine, front drive)
Power (hp) 89 * 6000 rpm
Torque (Nm) 120 * 3200rpm
Fuel Tank Capacity 45 litres
Top speed 160 km/h

Length 4070mm
Wheelbase 2655mm
Width 1630mm
Height 1690mm
Wheel 5JX14
Tyre 185/70 R14
Curb Weight 1085kg

I think drive layout is front engine, rear drive.

the car is nice i saw and ride in one when I was in Malaysia last June of this year. it has 7 seats! tamang tama sa typical pinoy family with 2-3 kids. pero mas okey sana kung me D-4D diesel version para tipid. eto first choice ko pero by next month ilalabas na yata ng hyundai yung Getz CRDi diesel version (from another thread)- i am starting to re-think coz Getz is a car released worldwide at patok sa europe unlike avanza na asean lang ang market. lets see....

padami na ng padami ang toyota models ah..

**basti08** · November 29th, 2005 04:34 PM

meron ba ang Toyota na smaller D4D engine than the 2.5L found in the Innova, Fortuner and Hiace commuter?
mas maganda nga kung may diesel variant but i bet the 2.5L is too big for the Avanza.

btw, i also think drive layout is FR, like the old Lite Ace
