Toyota Avanza - darating ba dito sa 'Pinas

[utakabo]

Nakita ko ito nung nagsearch ako ng innova sa internet. Mas maliit ito kesa innova, kasin laki daw ng hyundai matrix pero 7-seater at 1.3l pero vvt-i. Maganda naman ang reviews at bestseller ito sa indonesia, malaysia at thailand kasi mura ( mga 550-600k). Tignan nyo na lang sa www.avanzaindonesia.com ung specs at pix.

Nagtanong na ako sa toyota pero magkaiba ng sagot yung dalawang napagtanungan ko. sabi ng isa di raw darating, pero sabi naman nung isa sa 2nd or 3rd qtr daw ng 2005.

dadating un. may isa na nagleak na eh. ung isang dealer halata nman tinatago nya, or hes not up to date with their upcoming models..

Mukha syang maliit na Revo ah.

avanza is 7-seater with 1.3 vvti engine. Masyadong underpowered

So was the old Tamaraw FX with a 1.3li carburated engine.

HUH!! 1.3Li lang pala yun?!He he he :bwahaha:

Tingin ko nga din underpowered, pero sabi with the vvt-i comparable na sya sa 1.5 or 1.6. Yung forums ng avanza (motorttrader at usj) happy naman yung mga nakabili, ang panay ang pintas (ironically) yung walang avanza. kunsabagay, kung personal use naman, di naman laging 7 ang sakay mo di ba? Mas mabuti na yun kaysa sedan, dahil pag umabot na sa 7 ung dalawa sa trunk mo na isssakay.

typical toyota front.looks decent though.

nice pix! magkamukha ah... at Lexus pa. magkapatid talaga, kaya lang ciguro anak sa labas ang avanza tapos kulang sa sustento. hehehe

[utakabo]

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...

Ayaw siguro nila na maapektohan sales ng innova. watdyathink?

I think hindi maapektuhan yung sales ng Innova in case lumabas yan dito sa Pinas. It would target the low end/taxi market because of the basic but reliable specifications. Ito yung papalit sa low end models ng Revo na pwede ipasada. But take note also na my high end variant to so possible rin na makuha nya ang sales ng Vios, City, Jazz and other 1.3 - 1.5 vehicle models but not the Innova. Just my opinion...

[BlueBimmer]

stupid toyota, kahit maapektohan sales nila sa ibang models e sa kanila din naman ang kita kng naging hotcake ang avanze e! hehehe

what i meant by my earlier post is about why toyota remains noncommital on whther or not they will launch the avanza. IMO, cguro they want to stabilize ung market ng innova bago ilaunch ung avanza.

Of course they wouldnt want other manufacturers to plan a countermeasure this early if in case Toyota introduces the Avanza. Thats one of the main reasons naman of all manufacturers kaya they dont disclose those info kagad e. pano kung magplano ng minor change or major promo and kalaban just before the launch of the new model? sayang ung benta..
