Why only few Accent Taxis Around?

[Moonlighter]

Anybody, any idea why this is so? Is it because Accent is too expensive to be used as taxi and the 30+ km/L is just a hype? Can anyone here share the his experience on the performance and maintenance of Accent, either as privately used car or taxi?

Who would believe on a 30+km/l FC. Kahit pure highway driving lang ay napakahirap i-attain ito using Accent.

Since they are almost the same price of Vios (the lowest trim), why not buy a Vios to be a taxi instead diba?

Its just like using an underbone motorcycle 125 cc. engine with that fuel consumption.

Buy vios, Convert to LPG. Mas mura pa parts ng Toyota.

Cos of the badge hyundai daw kasi. Actually maraming pumakwaw diyan. Ramgen is the one punta ka sa garahe nila in manila.

I remember before there is one company purchase a fleet of accent 200 unit in HARI.

690,000 on a 1.5 engine?

Well taxi drivers who used this unit, told me that they consume only 800 pesos on a 24 hr service compared to gasoline.

Shifting * 2000 rpm.

Maybe because it is easier/cheaper to buy a Vios 1.3L and have an Auto-LPG kit installed. LPG is cheaper and parts for the Vios is easier/cheaper to source.

5 factors.

1. Expensive
2. 30km/l isn't achievable
3. Owning a vios J is cheaper.
4. You can add an LPG tank to the vios, with that cheaper fuel.
5. Maintaining a diesel engine can be expensive.

let's see what happens to the CRDi's injectors bet. 100K to 200K kms (this is easy with taxis).

Vios is cheaper though not as hardy as an Altis. Kung Accent e di Altis na lang. Nothing beats a Toyota.....as a taxi!
