Car Profiles - Toyota Avanza

TOYOTA AVANZA

A thorough redesign made the Avanza improved (although hard plastics remain) and looked larger than it is. The 1.3 J does not have cheap side panels plus it carries power windows but only restricts five people. Dual VVT-i engines come standard, as well as ABS brakes and ISO-FIX seats across the range.

The Good: Variants are well equipped

The Bad: Some hard plastics are present

Price Range: P721,000-P1,065,000
