13177 Supersonic July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 buy altis, might as well get a Octavia Combi around same price. safer, more powerful and bigger boots. Always heard people say, altis more reliable and you never goes wrong buying altis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flypast Neutral Newbie July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 I am driving a hatchback and always wonder why boot space in so important for owners of sedans. I hardly use the miserable storage space of my hatchback and even if I had prams, prams would fit into the hatchback without problem. Unless u have a wheelchair, then maybe there will be an issue. Personally I think hatch backs like the fit and swifts are better for a trip to Ikea than the vios if theres no passengers behind, as u can simply fold down the back seats for storage. I think sedans offer a better protection in rear-end collisions? If car bang from behind rear passengers in hatchback not so protected vs sedans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nlatio Turbocharged July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 (edited) Altis also tight at the rear. Save the hassle, upgrade to Camry. Like that no end.... end up got to buy (Air)bus... But I agree with Latio.... the most spacious sedan in its class..... its a family car.... so dont expect it to zoom zoom like EVO...

Kangadrool Supersonic July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 (edited) I think sedans offer a better protection in rear-end collisions? If car bang from behind rear passengers in hatchback not so protected vs sedans Hatchback has as good protection as sedan as long as there is a boot deep enough (some hatchbacks has depth equal to that of sedan) as buffer to contact with rear passengers. So, MPV should be the worst (if there are occupants at the 3rd row). Of course, this is simplistic view. We need to take into account of design and body rigidity.

PSP415 Supersonic July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 TS, frm yr description of boot needs, I personally will go for e switch. Will b more comfortable for all not to hv stuff hanging frm back of seats or to fight for seating space for passengers. E $10k take back can use for upkeep of vios since its 2 yrs older. Just my thoughts. Safe ride Cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joseph22 Turbocharged July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 EX slower den Fit? cannot be right? 1.5L EX is slower than Fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royho1979 Clutched July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 unless you are talking about estate, if not, its unlikely that hatchback boot deep is as long as sedan bah. Also must look at the material used.... I personally think a conti hatchback may provide same or more protection to rear pax than a Jap sedan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royho1979 Clutched July 9, 2012 Share July 9, 2012 1.5L EX is slower than Fit. But should have better aircon... Mitsubishi lor... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
