I drove the Avanza e and the light steering is easy to navigate. but I haven't driven the manual yet, but I must say it's pretty nice and it can seat 7 people with no problem but there is one thing that I don't like about it does eat gas when on a hill that is pretty steep but that's just it, anyways that's my opinion. Love your videos Jaywalkur it gives me insight and info about other cars.
Almost got this but nung tinestdrive namin, napaka bagal tlga. I didn't feel confident that it can carry 7 pax inside. Same hp and torque lng pla toh sa vios 1.3, a car for 5 pax. Tas nilagay sa mpv. Good luck sa bigat. Hehe
@@CrisCraig yes sir. You'll never know. What if mga plus sized adults ang sakay mo tas paakyat. Outing kayo kung san man. So may gamit pang dala bukod sa mga tao. Alanganin tlga. Kung city use lng tlga, generally flat ang roads, kaya naman kahit 1.3 lng. Pero kung ilalabas mo ng city every now and then at madalas marami kang isasakay, go for 1.5.
Dependi yan sa driver, 800cc nga na multicab loaded nakaka akyat pa sa marcos highway at kennon eh, kung nasanay ka sa patag na lugar at magdradrive ka sa pataas syempre mangangapa ka tlga. Yung 1.3 ko ilang beses na umakyat sa matatarik na daan marcos hway, san jose, etc. Wala namang problem basta alam mong bumwelo at mag match ng gear. If you want more power, get the Innova, 1.3 to 1.5 its only a 200ml difference. You can't feel the extra 7hp at 6000rpm. At tsaka bakit ang daming taxi na avanza sa baguio kung hindi pala kaya sa akyatan.
the only thing that sets me off with the Avanza J is the lack of 3rd brake light. para sakin, napaka importante ng 3rd brake light and i find it weird na tinanggal ng Toyota 'to for the J variant.
Base sa brochure, manual fold ang side mirror ng J variant, pero may power side mirrors. Yung blank switch sa ilalim ng power side mirror, yun yung power fold switch sa E at G. Yung E at G variant yung may power fold na side mirror.
It's actually a pretty light drive. I don't think the engineers would build an engine that's not tuned right for the vehicle's body. And I don't think Toyota would put its badge on a subpar vehicle.
