Suzuki Minivans -- Cost In Thailand?

[connda]

Does anyone know how much a new Suzuki Minivan costs in Thailand? I like the Suzuki Carry, but the legroom in too limited. The van look like the seat is adjustable, and for what I want, it's just the right size.

Last time I looked they were about 750,000 maybe less for manual.

Dang! I though those little things might cost 500K. Might as well buy a extended cab truck for that price.

if you want the Suzuki mini van type vehicle then maybe look at DFM.

CBR,

Sometimes you have to read the OP

An old Carry minivan has less legroom than the later pickup.

Yes. I thought the same I have the pickup and thought I would buy an APV to serve as a van/people carrier but the pickup has all the major bits and costs half the price. I could not figure out what the extra 300,000 is for except a few bits of extra sheet metal, a few seats and maybe electric windows. Maybe it is a tax thing?

The legroom is OK. I will admit to trying to adjust the seat the first time I tried to drive it but having accepted it one gets used to it now I can drive to Phuket no problem and don't even notice. The driving position is more upright than a car maybe that is the reason. Unless you are really tall say 6ft plus I would sit in the Carry again.

The APV is soon to be replaced......... also will wear the Chevrolet grill and badge [some Countries anytime now understand in Thailand 2013] ++ understand both will under cut the same sized Toyota Avanza in price

Myself not 100% sure if this is not a new model ? but told it is the APV replacement

[VocalNeal]

I think Ertiga 1.4l is aimed squarely at Avanza. While APV is a different beast. Avanza is a smaller version of Innova which replaced Kijang as the defacto national car of Indonesia. I believe in the beginning it was called Kijang Innova.

APV is still offered alongside Ertiga in Indonesia the home of both so while there maybe a revised APV in the works I do not believe it is Ertiga. Who sells Ertiga here is a marketing decision. But it will probably still be manufactured by Suzuki. Where ?
