Camrysfa Turbocharged November 12, 2013 Share November 12, 2013 Agreed, how come they add altis to their existing corolla name? is it because if one cannot afford a camry, then the ALTenative IS.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickshifters 2nd Gear November 15, 2013 Share November 15, 2013 2014 altis. Looks good. Using CVT gearbox which isnt so favourable when you are in the mood to drive a little faster i believe.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifter78 2nd Gear November 15, 2013 Share November 15, 2013 (edited) 2014 Altis is already out in Taiwan. Exterior is nice! But interior is a disappointing. Note: the model review here is 1.8. *Hmm, having problem embedding the video.

Swifter78 2nd Gear November 15, 2013 Share November 15, 2013 (edited) oh ok...got it. The 2014 Altis has reached Taiwan. Review on the 1.8L. What happened? Interior like Datsun 120Y? Well, i can't help comparing it to the K3. So it looks like light years behind. Edited November 15, 2013 by Swifter78 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banz86 5th Gear November 15, 2013 Share November 15, 2013 Hmm, after watching the review.. I think Hyundai and KIA both offers better interior and overall package.. But of cuz, yet to test the car shouldn't make too much comments. Once reached our shores, I think will head down to the showroom to take a look.. Maybe do a little test drive..

Kangadrool Supersonic November 15, 2013 Share November 15, 2013 More important thing is suspension. If got suspension like from Auris, good! If it's the typical thrashy torsion beam from T, then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing i like about altis is good fc and cheap parts. Drivng wise i find hyundai is more 'stable' than altis during high speed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tohto Hypersonic November 16, 2013 Share November 16, 2013 More important thing is suspension. If got suspension like from Auris, good! If it's the typical thrashy torsion beam from T, then Auris is for European market, handling is important for them. While Altis is for Asean market, suppose to be a cheap point A to B car. Don't expect too much for good suspension. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kangadrool Supersonic November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 (edited) agree the K3 is a great car! Price is great also. i30 already going at 148K, more ex than Auris. Edited November 18, 2013 by Kangadrool Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baal Supersonic November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 Typically in the past during Getz/matix, era, same cc, Korean cost less but when time to change spares = refund back. Also higher FC. But now, Korean 1.6 daringly priced like Toyota 1.6. In this case does it mean, Korean FC can now match Jap's FC & cost of spares like Jap's ?

13177 Supersonic November 18, 2013 Share November 18, 2013 Price is great also. i30 already going at 148K, more ex than Auris. How come i30 so exxpensive? But i see the price for elantra, how come basic and elite model difference so big? $120k vs $147k? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
slickshifters 2nd Gear November 19, 2013 Share November 19, 2013 i30 is a better built car with better quality plastics and fittings compared to elantra Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Supersonic November 19, 2013 Share November 19, 2013 i30 is a better built car with better quality plastics and fittings compared to elantra Too bad i30 is a hatchback car, and has small boot area as compared to elantra. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
