Suzuki Liana 1.6Auto: Appreciate feedback from owners.
-
Hi may get one of these cos the boot's really big like a MPV and only $63k for a Japanese car. anyone has any experience with this car? Suzuki owners' always bragging super fuel economy for their wheels.. is this true? cheers!
-
63K is only for the 1.3 Manual Hatchback ($62,900) to be exact
$61,900 for the 1.3 Manual Sedan
For the 1.6 auto, the price is
$68,900 for the sedan
$69,900 for the hatch back.
Im not an owner, but happened to test drive the above car a week ago, before the last COE bidding. But due to budget constraint. Gotta settle for a Korea Car. SOB SOB
Pick up & handling is good. Can consider. Good luck -
Was looking for a car for a while, early last year, due to my physical size, and "pocket" size, my choice was the Hyundia Matrix. Did test drive etc etc.... Have a friend who owns a Matrix, it is a gluzzer. He sold it alway and got a Honda instead.
Another of my close friend, brought the Liana 1.3 Saloon, looks good spacious. I test drive the 1.6 Auto version, pretty good and responsive. The engine uses chain drive not the conventional belt drive. Spacious although is a bit narrow, thus i would term it a tall car. The Facelift version looks cool. My friend having the 1.3 manual verion says ths fuel consumption is good comparable to his previous Swift. I check the specs for the 1.6 auto consumption, decent. When to a few site in the internet for other opinions, most with favourable comments.
So i decided to book for one

Chevrolet Aveo also a good choice. although it's a korean made, but beatiful and cheap. Italy design the look.
Hatch back 1.5 auto > $57,988
Hatch back 1.5 manual > $54,988
Test drive 1.5 HB auto version last week, perfomance ok, good handling, smooth and respondsive. What i like most is it is very spacious, especially for head room, for this type of small size car.
BTW, i might go down to book today. Anynone have any complain/comment about this Aveo? thank -
I've just got the 1.6AT H/B in Dec 03. Faceligt looks great ! After two months of serious urban driving (I only touch the expressways once or twice a week), the average consumption is 9.8km/L. My friend who owns the Mar 03 version clocked 13km/L (80% highway driving).
The interior width is slightly narrower than the corrolla. About a half-a-shoulder size. headroom is terrific. Height of seats is great for mothers carrying baby and old folks when entering and alighting. Engine gives quite a purr when engine is rev 3000rpm. PIckup is quite sluggish (considering its 88bhp/tonne compared to Corrolla ALTIS 92bhp/tonne). The car is great for family and also for those who don't have the $$$ for MPVs like PICNIC.
My previous car Swift 1.0 sedan clocks 15.6km/L on highway and 12.8km/L on urban driving.
