The suzuki alto standard at 398k is the cheapest brandnew Japanese car (albeit made in India). But, it lacks a lot of the basic stuff like power windows (even just at the front windows) and central lock/ing. Therefore, it’s not worth it when compared to a low-end Toyota Wigo which can seat 5, has central power windows and locking, airbags dual, among others (priced at around 450k to 470k). I am just curious why the low-end Alto in India priced at 2.49 lakhs is priced at 398k here in the Philippines. FYI, 2.49 lakhs is equal to around 182,000 php. If the low-end alto is priced at 300k, it’d be bang 4 the buck and would sell like hot cakes I guess. It’s engine is efficient I believe and may give you 18km/l in the city, I am open for comments or reactions regarding the price of Alto in the Philippines. Please do.
Ano po kaya ang lkotse rito ang may pinakamurang maintanence at spare parts? Salamat po.
how bout the Geely Panda LC? 250k Brandnew TOTL, ung lower end nila is 220k, 4star NCAP Safety rating. 1.3 DOHC
Merry Christmas Sir Yugatech, Chevrolet Spark 1.0L MT po maganda :) Sana this coming year magkaroon akoh ehehe
I think you forgot abot Geely LC priced like Hyundai Eon GLS at 498,000. Chery QQ if I’m not mistaken is around 300k only.
