Hi all, I am looking to get either Toyota Rush or Daihutsu Terios soon. But cannot make up my mind on which to get!

Of the both, which one will you go for and why.

thanks

Toyota Rush = Daihatsu Terios.

Dimensionally... both are the same...

Only difference is their name.. (duh...)

See whether you are comfortable with an authorised agent for Daihatsu or a parallel importer for Toyota....

isn'it the same?

All share the ame engine as well as Malaysia's Perodua Nautica.Remember Perodua Myvi,Toyota Passo,Daihatsu Sirion/Boon?Only a few changes

That Daihatsu Sirion is not bad looking and it's pretty cheap compared to other counterparts of similar capacity.

must you get the toyota rush/daihatsu terios?

Just be careful of which parallel importer you choose..

Otherwise you might be cheated of COE and stuff...

this place can find reputable parallel importer and compare prices.

I'd go with the Daihatsu; with that you can get reliable support and inexpensive servicing from Sin Tien Seng.

its basically the same but terios doesnt have the small mirror attached to the side of the bonnet. if im not wrong.. there's the 4wd and 2wd terios whereas rush has only 2wd. terios is slightly cheaper though. interior is exactly the same as a rush. not to say that the rush is not good. personally i drive a rush and i find it ok.. just that the suspension is a little stiff.

My vote goes to Daihatsu...

Sales have been healthy for Daihatsu this year... it's also a Japanese maker.....It has made a successful comeback from previous years due the new concepts of Sirion, Terios and Materia....

Besides... STS has been here for 50 years.... I guess it has a strong foothold in Singapore with strong sales of the charades in the 90s.....

hey all, thank you for your comments :) will go down to sin tien today and see see look look

See if it suits your budget and taste.... Happy shopping...

Terios has both MT and AT models. Rush has only AT models in SG. Price-wise Terios seems to be lower in general, but Rush is more flexible in the cosmetics. So its ur decision as both models are using the same engine afaik.

wow uncle larry is back!

Usually most parallel-imported cars are auto ones....

Terios is quite value for money. Get the 4WD. Also, STS's servicing intervals are at 15k kilometers. Manual Terios are only available for 2WD versions. Was there a couple of weeks ago and my workplace is only 1 street away from the Kallang showroom.

toyota rush is available in both rwd and 4wd models. manual and auto are also available. just that common for s'pore market is the rwd auto model. manual and 4wd are available on order basis.

daihatsu terios is also available at the same specs as rush. only difference is that terios don't come with kerb mirror, ie. the small mirror on the bonnet. recently, the terios is also available in 7-seater guise, although the country of origin is indonesia.

all in all, no matter rush or terios, its an affordable SUV with average fuel consumption and relatively easy to maintain, given toyota's excellent reliability. so which car u wanna buy is up to ur personal preference.
