2010 Toyota Corolla Altis 2.0v vs 2006 Honda Civic 1.8

[gh0str1d3r]

Hi,


Tanong ko lang po, malaki b difference in fuel efficiency ang dalawang kotse eto? Sa malaki tipid b ang 1.8 Honda sa 2.0 ng Toyota?



Please reply asap, nag babalak kasi ako sa dalawang eto eh.

Random googling shows they're both averaging 15km/l on a highway. The 4 year difference might be a factor in your case.

I did that, but specific topic on this year models. So your saying the 1.8 honda is the same as the 2.0 toyota in consumption?

I guess ang tanong naman dito is usapan ba ng gamit is highway madalas or mixed, or madalas city driving? Kasi kung madalas/majority city driving, e di sigurado "mas" matipid na idling mo while stuck in traffic dun sa Honda. Kaso may 4 year age difference yung Honda sa Toyota.

Toyota di naman ganun kagandahan suspension behavior ng shock absorbers niya and mas "Tuned" for utility kaya tumatagal. Pero sa Honda, pag matanda na at nilifter mo na mag fully extend ang suspension sa mga gulong pag baba mo na ulit sa lupa, sigurado sira na shocks mo. Hehe! Wear and tear lang sasabihin sa iyo Honda kaya wala ka maclaim sa kanila as negligent sila pag sinervice kotse mo. hehe.

Kung ako tatanungin, Corolla ako kaysa sa Honda sa situation na ito unless may iba sa history ng kotse na mapapasama yung labas pala sa Corolla like Service History/Accidents or patch work repairs etc.

Di ko maalala din sa Corolla kung itong tinitingnan mo yung generation ng may melting dashboard. Meron dito mga post tungkol dun. Kaso di ko na maalala yung yearmodel.

Yup that's the generation with the melting dashboard. Si ninjababez naalala ko mas nauna mag melt dashboard sakin

My 2010 corolla has low mileage (50k) and always covered parking (office and home). I was shocked when the dashboard melted during the pandemic when I parked it under the sun to "decontaminate" it. The cracks are getting worse now. I'll have the dashboard and steering fixed in the future na lang sa seatmate.

BUT BUT BUT I am more than happy with this car. I had ZERO major repairs done after warranty. It's still casa maintained with the usual PMS lang. My other wear and tear expenses wiper, battery and tires.

Sorry but the 2006 Civic I find as the most boring of all the models. Mas gusto ko pa look ng older EG and EK.

I’ve owned a 1.8 Civic and a 2.0 Altis. Altis uses more gas for sure, especially the early model with a 4AT. But the difference isn’t significant vs the 1.8 Civic.

Say you get 7.5 km/L on the Civic, then you’ll get 7 km/L on the Altis 2.0.

Get the car that you prefer. Civic will have better handling, the Altis has a more comfortable ride.

^ isn't that a bit thirsty for a 1.8 civic fd? We have a 2.0 civic fd a/t and it consumes about 6.5 - 7 kms/l on city runs.

One thing to consider when going totl, the parts situation is different from the lower tier variants. The pyesas used in the top trim are not as abundantly supplied as the models positioned below it.

R18 isn’t significantly less thirsty than K20.

Had FD, FB, FC R18. Even with FC CVT, 8 km/L can only be done if traffic is moderate.

I live near work (<5 km) and traffic between BGC and Ortigas isn’t light so I only have an average speed of 13-15 kph in city driving.

^ Interesting sidenote that a cvt isn't as "frugal" as a trad a/t tranny as it's thought out (or marketed out) to be.

In relation to what jut said, per my own experience with CVT, benefits of CVT when in stop and go traffic is negligible to barely noticeable at all.

Reason I believe this to be the case is that CVT mainly benefits in trying to go to the optimal ratio and lowest rpm for the speed you are requiring. But in the beginning "Burst" it will rev up before settling down to "optimum".

Problem with stop and go traffic is you'll always slow to a stop, repeat the process of revving up as it searches everytime for the optimal rpm for your speed. So, unless you are able to coast more frequently, there really is barely any difference that will results in the CVT vs AT. Other than the compact nature of the CVT I guess. So maybe there is some weight saving there, but I don't think the difference would be in the region of an adult's average weight. hehe!

So, if you really are always in stop and go traffic, might actually be more beneficial to go for a hybrid, EV, or a smaller more "efficient engine" for a properly weighted car (not like say the Nissan 1.3L AT Sentra they sold here. Those were not efficient at all. hehe!).
