Good day sir. Nice video! Share ko lang experience ko sa Raize. 6 months na din at E variant. Hindi ako naka experience ng rattling sa infotainment system at yung sa squeaky brakes, sa experience ko nag squeak lang kapag malamig pa yung brakes. After a few minutes of driving it goes away. Agree ako na more than enough na yung power ng Raize haha. Nag solo drive ako sa mountain roads at nag “italian tune up” at walang problema na mag keep up sa mas malaki na mga kotse. Hinda pa naka power mode yan. Useful lang talaga ang power mode kapag kailangan mag overtake. For those still having a hard time choosing an economy car here is what I can say: I compared every entry level cars of toyota, honda, suzuki, nissan, and mitsubishi (since they are definitely more reliable and affordable than non-japanese manufacturers). Raize is without a doubt the best car for your money, even compared to the Wigo. Although Raize is much more expensive, it is definitely well worth it. Even when compared to bigger 5-seater models of Toyota, Raize is very spacious for its size. Plus Toyota is leading with CVT technology since they make their own. In short and long term, Raize is an almost perfect economy car. Also friendly tip lang hehe. Since CVT na ang engine, no need to switch to Sequential mode kung gusto nyo na mas magiging mabilis or mag up hill kasi pinili na ng engine ang perfect gear ratio for the speed, acceleration, and load. Most useful ang sequential mode kapag going downhill for engine breaking. Pasensya sa mahaba na comment, sobrang ganda lang talaga ng Raize haha.
@@pedroreviewsph haha disclaimer lang sir, yung Italian tune up ay basically driving the car hard after only driving it economically for a long time pero wala naman talagang proven benefits hahaha.
Hahahaah! That sounds fun! I would’ve tried it in my younger days, but I doubt my reflex and eyesight can handle spirited driving pa. Thanks for the fun info po. :)
Just imagine if you have a hot drink there then you came to a hump/shi**y road✌️/sudden stop, it would be troublesome. It just makes sense. Anyhow, looking forward to your 1.5years review 🙏
Hello, thanks for the video. Am on the fence with Raize. Corolla Cross or Raize. Cannot decide MT or CVT. This video is helpful with my decision making.
Hello po. I think fully synthetic is not required. You may check ur owner’s manual to be sure. Also, it’s not that expensive po kasi maliit lang naman engine ng Raize :)
@@pedroreviewsph will expect it in April then. ^^ Saang casa nyo po btw binili ang Raize nyo? I'm also from Davao. :3 may mga ma suggest kayo na good/maayos na casa na hindi mandurugas?
@slavemi3018 sa Matina po. Though, you know ung Toyota sa Bajada po, ung maapit sa GMall, they display units din po, maybe you could order a Raize po dun. Dun po ako nag papa PMS because the staff and the Manager are wayyyyyyy nicer than Matina.
@wintermelon5494 if that’s your goal po then it’s functional and yes it really acts as a manual. Also, it’s up to 7 gears, if i am not mistaken, so you’ll enjoy. :)
Honestly Sir, ang Raize can seat 3 sa likod PERO i’d not prefer it. Para sa comfort two lang dyud ako i recommend sa likod. You may want to look at Avanza or Innova or Zenix, kana 7 seaters sila. You might want to go sa Toyota Matina, bring your Family and test the seating comfort of the units po. Look for Mr. Arnulfo Zifra to assist you po (sya po manage ng account ng wife ko when I bought her the Raize, highly recommended).
Road noise is average like any budget car on the market BUT it’s not a deal breaker. Kasi you can lessen pa naman po pag time na mag change ng tires into more premium. As to Vibration, di naman po. Cool nga kasi ang ganda ng tunog. Feel mo nag drdrive ka talaga. But this is just my preference. You can talk pa naman quietly sa loob unlike a couple of cheap cars i drove na parang sisigaw ka na.

Hello po. I really appreciate the comment. I agree with all the points you said. Naku, will research about italian tuning heheh. Thank you po.

Nice comment. I just bought one but i haven't used the power mode yet. I even forgot where it is & its purpose.😂
@@oliveolivas5886 I usually only use it for overtaking haha quite useful.

The 200 mm ground clearance is perfect for uneven and rough road as well.
Yup, i agree po :)

I hope whatever decision you”ll make brings you happiness :)
I’ve recently bought this car. I haven’t try driving it coz I’m outside the country but my wife she’s happy with the performance of the car🙂
Congratulations :)
Yaward taga davao ra diay ka idol hahahaha love your reviews!!
Yes po :) thank you! :)
Malamig po ba ang aircon kahit grabe na po kainit ng panahon? Di po ba nahihirapan ang aircon na i-cool down yung cabin?
The aircon po is just like any other budget cars. Nothing spectacular :)
Hello po. Question lang po. Is the maintenance of Raize very expensive due to the synthetic oil required?
Hello po. I think fully synthetic is not required. You may check ur owner’s manual to be sure. Also, it’s not that expensive po kasi maliit lang naman engine ng Raize :)
Dol, pila imo monthly for 5 years. Ug pila inyo gi down. Unta maka reply ka para naa koy idea. Salamat. Done subs. Kept it up dol.

@@pedroreviewsph awesome! :) How's your Raize now? You need to make a "1 year later" video for this. ^^
@slavemi3018 still awesome and inlove with it po. Yes, certainly. Come April is its 1st year po :)
@@pedroreviewsph will expect it in April then. ^^ Saang casa nyo po btw binili ang Raize nyo? I'm also from Davao. :3 may mga ma suggest kayo na good/maayos na casa na hindi mandurugas?

Any feedback on its manual mode po?
I rarely use it po, but it’s quite responsive and useful when going downhill po for engine brake :)
@@pedroreviewsph thanks for your response sir. It's a good thing that it has an option for manual for those who seek arcade-like shifting. 😁
@wintermelon5494 if that’s your goal po then it’s functional and yes it really acts as a manual. Also, it’s up to 7 gears, if i am not mistaken, so you’ll enjoy. :)

Hello sir plannning to buy po. Malakas po vibration while driving? At dinig po ba road noise? Tysm
