    1. Price tag
    2. Maintenance
    3. Fuel Consumption
    4. Riding Comfort
    5. Looks

    The Avanza is cheaply designed with its body on frame structure, will end up with more squeaks and rattles easily. Livina has 1.8L and six speeds and has a more expensive and clearly better unibody construction. Avanza has dual AC though.

    I still go for Livina.

    The Avanza is cheaper and would have more parts availability...

    I'm not sure on the FC of the Livina but definitely i'd get this over the Avanza (power, comfort and looks)

    Yeah parts availability wise, the Avanza trumps the Livina. Be cautious of oil sludging though, most common problem of Avanzas, saka yung hindi umiikot ang langis sa makina then kakatok. Have heard this on a friend and many taxi drivers hahaha but most probably on beaten up units

    Hindi pa ba na-improve yung bagong Avanza ngayon? Mainit kasi GL. I have driven this many times reklamo ko lang yung ac. dapat sana dual ac ang GL.

    Yeah, that probably boils down to maintenance really.
