Thank you for posting this video. My research as to what car to buy for my retirement in the Philippines is coming to its conclusion due to your superb, well detailed and very informative reporting. I really appreciate your assistance. I really hope to meet you someday in the near future to thank you personally.
Hello sir, you always have very nice comments. As for a retirement car, if only based on this list, I don't think you'd go wrong with any of these. But if I have to pick, I'd be biased towards Suzuki, Maxus, or Hyundai, only because I've seen these in showrooms and they belong under the same dealership where I'm from. They look good and built well. The Ertiga (which I own) is very fuel efficient. And though the features are pretty basic, it is very reliable. The Geely and the GAC look great too, plus they have tons of space (and tech) for tech savvy owners. Another thing to consider though are hybrids and EVs. They are slowly making a mark in the market, slowly creeping in. You might want to check those too. I hope you find the best car for you. God bless!
@@djtron99 It may cost you about 2k+ for basic PMS (light maintenance + change oil). Goes up from there if there's a need to change spark plugs, break cleaning, filters etc, which is normal for any casa maintained vehicle. PMS is every 4 months, if you follow your booklet. Cost is reasonable if you want to keep your car in tip top shape. Never had problems with mine, casa maintained. 3x as much? Sorry to say but that's ridiculous. Suzukis are among the cheapest to maintain out there. Ask the casa directly then compare. Don't believe the hearsays. Mostly, they are not true and exaggerated.
Geely Okavango sana kaso ang laki ng price increase and nagkakaproblema pa sa engine pati sa parts. Currently looking at Veloz and Stargazer. Pero parang mas okay si Stargazer. Sana lang okay ang after sales ni Hyundai.
I'd recommend you watching the indo comparison of veloz, stargazer, and xpander. The deal breaker for me was the prominent wheel spins of the stargazer during an uphill drive, which meant that the stargazer had a hard time driving uphill with 6 passengers.
@@ifansmachado5062 funny thing is, I was more convinced to choose the stargazer because of that vid. Yes, it had a hard time going uphill. But they were still able to move unlike the Veloz. Compared to the expander, the number of features the stargazer have is so much more. And in our use case, we don't really live or go to uphill areas often, nor carry a full 7 passengers at the same time. Maybe if you live in a mountainous area and carry a lot of cargo/people, the expander may be a better choice.
Veloz and stargazer din options ko kso deal breaker sken kapag walang 360 cam dhil newbie driver plang haha, well kung sino nlng affordable n may 360 cam siguro. Also waiting for suzuki ertiga hybrid
@@seankirbypichay5250 Sad to hear that.. Based on reviews I watched, they prefer the GAC GN6 over the G50 primarily bec the former has better driving dynamics..
Some of these mpvs are advertised as suv these list proves that they aren't 🤣 just a glorified mpv also 9:36 suzuki ertiga suddenly has a turbocharged engine.
@@ImPapaRon sweet spot sana ang 1.5m kaso at 1.7m rather have the innova. Also the all new territory aka equator will be here soon making the okavango irrelevant for that price
