This car is crazy popular here in Japan. Have seen a ton of em. Wish they brought in the Toyota Noah/Voxy/Esquire. Imagine a 4WD van that seats 7 comfortably but is small and nimble enough for city roads. Plus hybrid powertains as well.
All car buyers have their preferences, we can't say that this is not a good value car for it's price when others say that it is well priced for them. I'm not saying that Toyota's before and nowadays are not overpriced, just like iPhone being expensive, but people would still buy it. even though it's not alot of features compared to Samsung, they'd still buy it. edit: just found out about Yaris Cross, its 100x better than Raize Turbo.
Last year pa ko nakabile ng 1.0 Turbo white pearl. And everytime my pop-up na new review, napapanood pa rin ako knowing wala naman bago.. Hehe.. I really like this car than my sister honda sedan (city).. btw nice review
Have this car its good,Power is surprisingly more than what you expect, Specially when the turbo kicks in And the paddle shift is nice to use in overtakes, You do feel some oversteer during descending curves when you travel light but that feeling disappears when someone seats at the back or are carrying some heavy load.

With the recent price increase of the Raize to Php 1,063,000 while MG ZST offering a promo (Php 1,088,888), even the GAC GS3 Emzoom R Style (Php 1,148,000 after discounts), does the Raize still offer better value for money due to the reliability and durability offered of the brand?
@@AntiJEVsInPHIf I got it right, PH supply is not affected. Plus this comment was written before the scandal (if memory serves me right). Despite the scandal, Toyota has responded to it so future units should be better. At any rate, any buyer from this point forward would know, should know, what the issue was and should factor that in before making a decision. To me, the Raize is still on my list of future secondary cars.
Hey Kyle if you are to choose between Toyota Raize and Geely GX3 Pro, which one would you choose? It'll be my first car if ever. Hope you can help me! More power bro!
Not a fan of the Toyota brand but gotta say, I am impressed with the Raize unlike with their new Wigo. This thing just makes sense with the right amount of tech, fun and practicality it gives you. The 1.2 G suprised me the most tho with how much value you're getting for the price it asks. Tho yeah can't blame you if you're not sold with this being a value for money proposition given the price is getting closer to some small crossovers like the Coolray tho between a base model of that Geely and this, would probably go Toyota instead. Versatility-wise, it is as noteworthy as it could get especially having 200mm of ground clearance despite its very small size and the capability of being fuel-efficient as well, something we all know the Coolray isn't. It would be a different story if we were to talk about the Emzoom tho, knowing how GAC is very underrated but the Chinese brand with the most well-built cars among its peers. Might not even consider this at all compared to that 👀
Agree with you on the Raize vs Wigo part. Base Coolray vs this though, I'd probs still lean towards the Coolray. While I haven't driven the GS3 Emzoom, at least on paper, the Emzoom wins by a long shot.
The only thing Raize turbo has over base coolray is fuel efficiency which is to be expected on a CVT and a lighter car. All other else belongs to Coolray. Looks, interior quality (not plastics all around, Performance in not even close, Safety, NCAP rating, Techs and considering Coolray is already 4 years in the country and no MAJOR issues is encountered. Parts availability is also gaining grounds on the Geely as more and more NON CASA is importing parts that only take week or so to arrive.
Grabe ang 5km/L hahaha never ata ako umabot ng ganun kababa siguro 7km/L worst ko and nag oovertake pako nun and malakas mag gas para maka-cut and singit 😅
@@KyleLiongCars i mean 5km per liter is really bad to be honest. Yesterday i went to Taytay Rizal from Bicutan Paranque i got a score of 99 with 19.7km per liter. 🤣 thats the best i had so far lol my usual trip is 15km per liter
since you mention that their are more larger and premium cars with the same price range do you have any idea in mind what car are those that you want to share for some one who like to purchase his/her first car?
For an additional Php100K, I'll just get the new Nissan Almera VL. Toyota, Honda, & Mitsubishi tend to overprice their vehicles; & Pinoys still buy them.🤦🏻♂️
i'll go with the Coolray..... Power, Design, Built quality, Features and Price.... all goes with the Coolary.... The only thing going for the Raize is the Toyota logo.... but it is actually a Daihatsu.
yep that's definitely a deal-breaker. i hate it when they omit basic features. it's like they're thinking that you're too stupid to notice that it's missing

@@KyleLiongCars the turbo yes even i would like it but without it and just a 1.2 3 cylinder engine not so much and it beats me why toyota just put a 4 cylinder engine with turbo rather than a 1.0 3 cylinder turbo. Is it about the gas consumption?

In general, 4WD isn’t really needed for our roads (for most people). It only increases fuel consumption.

buy this raize and do the following upgrades: full sound damping, rigid collars, spring buffer, engine strut bar. goods na goods na tong raize

Hello! First time car and driver here. Interested with the Raize but would you suggest the 1.2 variant or the 1.0 Turbo variant for me. Thank you.
It’s hard to suggest the 1.0 Turbo given its price. Price aside, it’s really good. I haven’t tried the 1.2, but the Turbo is really fun
