Why does Wish have much better sale figure than Stream?

[Quantum]

In my impression, Honda Stream is a brilliant MPV,

but I saw a MCF thread mentioned Toyota Wish achived a very good sale figure from 2006 Jan to Oct[thumbsup], but Honda stream has been phased out from KM list

Why does Toyota always defeat Honda in same CAT products?

[Blackyv]

because it's a toyota. does that answer ur question??...

MPV is generally purchase for bigger family ones.

Hence FC and reliablity comes first.

 

In additon, Wish is competitively price from a reputable manufacturer.

 

I dun own one myself.

[Toyo]

Honda are usually priced higher and does not appeal to the general public

[Zoom99]

In Japan, Toyota is deemed as the more popular choice.

 

In S'pore, KM create the image that it is a more premium car than Toyota.

 

That's how I perceive.

Stream is a great car but I really hated the weird shape of the window at the last row.

[Familymanz]

Same thingy as why Corolla always sell better than Civic

Went for test drive both MPV and did not like both of them. Th reason are

 

a) Wish = third row seat cushion not so comfortable for adults of 80kg & above,

no rear air-con blower

 

b)Stream = third row seat not suitable to tall adults. more comfortable for children

and also no rear air-con blower.

 

End up buying Picnic instead

Let's wait & see if new stream can do well, particularly its FC. So far, yet to hear any reviews from new stream owners.

Wish is the most established parallel imports. That may allay fears for buyers eyeing on getting one of them.

Toyota is cheaper in the same category.

When I was in Tokyo last month, I saw more Stream on the road than Wish. I saw only 2 Wish but I saw like 7 Streams. Might not mean a thing but this is what i saw. As to there are more Toyota on the Japan road, I do agree I see more Toyota cars.

[Zakuii]

The current Stream is not bad with FC either, if driven correctly. My 2L Stream gives me at least 10km/l, averaging 11km/l+. If I drive with a very heavy foot, I still can get 9km/l+.

fully agree...just like how they market VW, n 2 yrs ago Mazda 3 premium

[Furrynadz]

cos wish and hyundai (especially matrix) have a very special target group in sg

 

poor family with many kids and take 100% ten yr loan and weekend plate

 

where else can find a cheap 7 seater for 40+ and squeeze in a family of 10

[Picanto]

POOR family? if can afford a car, can the family be considered poor?

I think Stream is too new, so people maybe wait and see. As for Wish, it is proven with good FC, easy/cheap spare part as there are so many on the road liao.
