Very nice review sir levi. I like the fact that you didn't sugar coat the negative aspects, particularly the price vs. features. Just an unbiased review from a consumer perspective. I'm eyeing this zenix as our next family car. Better check other options. Keep it up sir! 👍
Simple ang presentation but very informative. I like how unbiased you are. that's why i always watch your videos even after watching other car reviewers kasi palagi ako may makukuhang info whether it be a pro or con regarding sa kotse. Thank you, sir!
19km/liter city driving and 28km/liter on the expressway… i think this is its biggest strength considering Toyota is at least two decades ahead of other companies in hybrid engine development
The Malaysia variant is 2.4M with a sunroof but no infotainment. The India Hycross (Zenix) is around the same as the PH variant with a sunroof. The Indonesia variant is around 1.8M for the Q and 2M++ for the Modelista variant with all the body kits. The India and Indonesia variant is manufactured in their own country, while the Malaysia and PH variants are not. With the Important additional taxes, the PH dealer decided to remove the sunroof and infotainment instead for the Q, not increase the price by over 2M. They don't want that price range because it will compete with the Mid to Top variant SUVs. So for me, the prices of the PH variant are OK considering tax. Not everyone prefers SUVs, especially if you carry full 8 passengers with seniors. SUVs are known for little room for 3rd room space; that is where an Innova or a Zenix comes into play. If I would buy an SUV, I prefer the Mid to Top variant and not the base model, which competes with the 1.9M price for this Zenix.
Agree po ako sya inyo na mag fortuner na lang sa pricepoint. Beside yung mga hybrid technology is still at its juvenille stage so still were blindsided pa din sa maintenance reliability ng battery. Not to mention yung cost for replacement.
Very well said Levi. though the hybrid system of this mpv is yet to be tested in the next 3 to 5yrs. Im not certain abt the cost of maintainance that goes along. The price is too high. I would rather pick montero gls or fortuner at that price.
I really do not understand how their premium brand Lexus takes full advantage of the hybrid tax incentive while they don't. Almost all the Chinese brand cars are also taking advantage of it using a 1.5L engine that's why they have such a price advantage with so much features.
Thanks sa review, malaki pamilya ko kasi yung center seat naka pilot seat pang 2 person lang. Sana May variant ng diesel na ganyan itsura 😊. Tâma ka sa sinabi mo yung price pang fortuner na. 😊
Thank you sir Levi for this Honest review. Planning to buy a new car replacing my adventure Mitsubishi. But unfortunately i was disappointed with Toyota's Zenix model. 1st, super pricey for 1.9M, 2nd, who needs Captain chair better with the tumble one, can accommodate three people in the 2nd row seat. 3rd, in other countries they have features that are not included here in the Philippines why did they remove it? e.g sunroof.... For the price of this, better get an SUV, everest or MUX, I'm 5'9 tall but the 3rd row seat is ok and spacious, so pretty much everybody will be comfortable riding it even if you're an average size adult at the back seat. And Again it's an SUV and diesel... Anyway it's only my opinion.. The choice and money is still yours.. Thanks again sir Levi. Kudos👌
hybrid = color coding exemption. rather than buying a 2nd car, 1 car na lang that you can use 7 days a week. Very important samin na naghahatid ng bata sa school. I think your question on whether it's worth it or not is really dependent on the use case of the buyer. For us, sulit siya given the reason i stated earlier.
Sa investment terminoligiea called OPEX and CAPEX. Opex means mura pag bili at mahal sa maintenance. Capex naman mas maha sa pagbili pero mas mura ang maintenace. So hybrids are cheaper interms of operating and low maintenance. Hybrid is going to beneficial esp intraffi. Which is very common sa Pinas. The engine will run when ylu release brake and accelerate. And will also help in you long drives. Less gasoline to use. Free from coding pa as per LTO. Am a diesel owner and close to my 50% na pang down sa Zenix. Again toyota is in Hyvrid tech since 2010 abroad.
Here in europe majority of the taxi roaming around are hybrid the battery can last for more the 5 years and taxi drivers said that you can save thousand of money because it consume less fuel.
We just saw the Innova Zenix this morning, we were very curious, we though that it is just a super hyped up vehicle. It uses a lot of the hard, cheap looking plastic all over most especially on the doors. The doors are very light which makes you feel like it will ot hold during collissions. The V model is too bare, no one will buy it unless it is intended as a PUV. The Q model supposedly has the "Ottoman" type captain chairs but when you use the foot rest, there is not enough foot / leg space. Even the bottom of the front seats are closed so your feet cannot extend well when seating in 2nd row. Overall, not good value for money.
@@erostyler6226 i don't think you get the point. Your view is too emotional and not judging from previous data. They used to have 2.0 gas before but only sold a fraction of the total sales. Why would they buy a pricey 2.0 than the powerful 2.8 innova or even a 1.5 avanza, expander, ertiga.
They don't expect this thing to sell that much that's why they still sell the old innova. The non-hybrid is there to justify the price of the hybrid version
@@howtosurviveearth Actually this 2 liter engine has been used in some other Toyota cars (almost same as the current Toyota Harrier I was told). The engine is not similar to the old gas engine of the Innova. Our 1st gen Innova's dependability is just amazing, but city driving the thing just feels tiring after awhile. Although for long rides, the diesel engine gives you more torque and peace of mind. Nowadays though, the cost of diesel and gas is not far apart. I agree that even the cost of the 2023 Innova G and Zenix is so close to other SUVs with more features or perks - but the ride height and sort of portability around the city is why a lot of people still prefer the Innova or MPVs. Just my 2 cents. I'm actually planning to buy either the Innova or the Zenix. The Zenix though offers better seating space for the 3rd row than the Innova. Being gas, a quieter ride too.
Also, sir Levi, seems you're one of those people who's not yet ready for a change with a Hybrid or full EV car. Change is constant, yes we can be afraid, and people who will buy this know the Pros and Cons.
Mahal pero what your buying is the engine technology that goes with it The side design is comparable to that of the Toyota Highlander Mahal pero makakatipid ka sa gas in the long run
We've been eagerly awaiting the arrival of this car, but unfortunately, we find ourselves a bit disappointed. The interior color is not to our liking, and as you rightly pointed out, the reclining space is not functional for a tall person. Thank you for this review..
Just want to point out Sir Levi the Zenix transmission is not CVT but eCVT. I don't know why they even call it eCVT because the configuration is totally different from the CVT. The eCVT has no metallic belt and the 2 motor generators are directly coupled to the planetary gears. Also the Dynamic Force Engine is very advance engine plus they are also using the latest 5th gen hybrid system. Just the design on mechanical parts makes this car already sulit.
I'm glad Toyota didn't disappoint here. Toyotang Toyota pa rin: Cheap interior materials, ext. design: Honest value: P800,000 Toyota logo + hybrid: add P1.1m Toyota sheep: Hala pila na!!! Take our money! Mabuhay ang "reliability" and resale value!!! 😂😂😂 Not hatin' on Toyota but they got this country by the bolz. In other markets with buyers who aren't lemmings, they AT LEAST compete with price and features per category.
Saw the car today and was disappointed with the interior materials used. 2nd row seats would be better if it was tumble and fold. 3rd row space and height are impressive. The ambient light looks like an after thought.
Agree with your sentiments. Dealer said 8 year warranty on battery that has 10 year life and 3 years on car. NiMH battery costs 180K now. Also better to understand the Specifics on what battery and car issues that are considered under warranty or not. RESALE VALUE maybe an issue after 5 yrs or more when buyer may possibly replace the battery.

IMO, looks like pinaghalo halo lang na existing designs nila. Front = Fortuner Side = Corolla Cross/ Rav-4 Back = Rush Height/length = Innova Agree sir on the price point. :)
Though much more expensive to produce, there must be a good reason why most EVs are now using Lithium Ion batteries instead of Nickel Metal Hydride batteries which powers the hybrid system of this Toyota MPV. At P1.9M+ the Zenix Hybrid is OVERPRICED considering the competition is just as well equipped if not better.
mas maganda ang nickel lalo na sa cycle life , pangit din ang Lithium ion sa tropical country kase weakness ng lithium ang init. pansin mu mga battery ng mga cp na lithium mabilis mag degrade.

They don't want that price range because it will compete with the Mid to Top variant SUVs. So for me, the prices of the PH variant are fine considering tax.
@@PromotedGossiper Can you explain further as to your claim of the lithium ion battery as "panget sa tropical country?" Can you cite studies that would support your claim? The new Toyota Prius with Lithium Ion battery is forthcoming to the Philippines. What can you say about that?
Parang hindi na utilize yung tax incentive para sa hybrid vehicles if na utilize ng toyota siguro hindi 1.9m yung price honestly its a bit of a stretch with that 1.9m price tag
comparing Pinas... meron bang Japanese car manufacturer ang nagtitinda ng same specs, same quality of interior, same quality katulad sa ibang asia countries? ang sagot wala.. kasi mababa tingin nila sa Pinoy at mababa din halaga ng currency natin kaya ganun.
Also the price range na na-established dito satin. The Malaysia variant is 2.4M with a sunroof but no infotainment. The India Hycross (Zenix) is around the same as the PH variant with a sunroof.

For me it's all worth the price of all the features including being Hybrid KSI WALANG coding up to 2030 BUT but HOWEVER the instance is NO! NO! NO! in Philippine NCR driving Because of FLOODED street of NCR.. that's why's we all settled for SUV of higher ground clearance
Actually sir, tingin ko selling point nitong Zenix is ung hybrid engine. Kung taga metro manila ung buyer, and alam naman natin matraffic dito like in C5, EDSA, etc, kapag ganung stop-start traffic I think magcocompensate doon ung hybrid kasi tatakbo ung hybrid on low speeds. So, I think tingnan natin in the long-run ung ownership experience mula sa magiging owners. Let's give hybrids a chance kasi in fact madami nang hybrids all over the world, ngayon lang tayo nagencourage nito sa philippines. Kasi sa ngayon ung mga tao parang puro hesitations pa eh about hybrids. So tingnan natin
That is for you, but not for all. Di lahat gusto ng SUV lalo pag lagi puno kayo, malayuan byahe, tapos may mga seniors pa. Almost all SUV masisikip ang 3rd row at diyan lamang ang mga Innova at itong Zenix. Also, go find an SUV na under 2M with adaptive cruise control and hybrid.
@@erostyler6226 yes that's for me mas ma enjoy ko pa e-byahe ang SUV lalo na pg loaded. With that price dapat lang may high specs kasi sayang ang binabayaran mo.
Akala ko may panoramic roof sya. Wala pala. Sinabi ba nila ang current sales nyang Q Variant? What i mean, kung may waiting list kung kukuha ka ngayon?
Sir ano pong masasabe nyo sa montero sport? na sobrang daming haters. Bigla bigla daw nag accelerate yun daw po issue ng montero. Balak ko sana montero sport kaso against po mom ko dun, toyota daw po talaga. Pero alam ko hindi yun totoo na issue sa montero sinisiraan lang talaga kase mabenta at maganda.
Ok naman sya at very reliablez. In terms fo engine and transmission, maganda sya at madaling i maintain. I have mine for 3 years and I have no problems at all
You're the only Pinoy car reviewer I trust fully. Thank you for your honesty

Kaumay yung interior, it’s like 10 years behind, sobrang tipid naman talaga ng Toyota.
Here in europe majority of the taxi roaming around are hybrid the battery can last for more the 5 years and taxi drivers said that you can save thousand of money because it consume less fuel.
Yes agree, specially if you use it everyday and you travel about 300kms per day just like a taxi.
That's the intention of hybrid, bcz Oil Wells get dry, too!
...and only by that time, hybrid will be popular.
We just saw the Innova Zenix this morning, we were very curious, we though that it is just a super hyped up vehicle.

Yup, the gas only model would suffer if they continue to sell the old diesel innova. The old innova is more rigid and transmission is fit as an mpv.

Design and funcitonality is good. But it is gas and only four passenger including driver can be accomodated. I still go for the diesel one.

Correct. We have no use for captain's chair. Wish they had an 8-seater variant instead.

Mahal pala battery nya sir pag nasira parang mas gussto na ngaun ang forty
sounds like an entirely new model riding the hype of the innova
The battery replacement is the big question .
How much it will cost 5 years from now , and is it worth the savings from the daily gas we spent ?
It has an 8 year warranty. So no worries about battery replacement

The India and Indonesia variant is manufactured in their own country, while the Malaysia and PH variants are not. With the additional Import Taxes, the PH dealer decided to remove the sunroof and infotainment instead for the Q, not increase the price by over 2M. They don't want that price range because it will compete with the Mid to Top variant SUVs. So for me, the prices of the PH variant are OK considering tax.
Sir Levi tanong lang po pano po itong bagong innova sa baha? ung diesel version kasi okay lang kinaya naman. how about sa hybrid?
Well ingatan mo lang na huwag idaan sa baha
@@ridewithlevi6418 sana nga po pero dito po samin mabilis lang bumaha kahet kunting ulan lang. sayang nakapaganda pa naman ng innova. Good review sir keep up 👍
To sell this 1.6 1.7 million para sa new pricing.... dami competition at disregard the inflation.
Finally, Toyota is stepping up in terms of aesthetics..maganda n rin ang interiors nya..
Yun lang..parang overpriced na naman..
Nice detailed review as always Prof👍👍
lol nagpaka baba ng standards mo kung gandang ganda ka jan
Di po gano attractive ang loob or interior, unlike sa mga suv at 2m price..opinion lng po.
@@kooob81 opo mababa lang po standard ko..di naman po kc ako mayaman na kagaya nyo sir
@@julius1972100 pinoy nga naman, mahilig mag lookdown sa kapwa... tsk tsk! hayaan mo na, karma will find that person
@@Annihilus2000 thank u po sir🤗

If with panoramic sunroof included good price 1.9M peso zenix Q good interior only better buy veloz 😅

Not everyone prefers SUVs, especially if you carry total of 8 passengers with seniors. SUVs are known for little room for 3rd room space; that is where an Innova or a Zenix comes into play. If I would buy an SUV, I prefer the Mid to Top variant and not the base model, which competes with the 1.9M price for this Zenix.
For 2M you can buy car with luxurious interior..
like what?
Tell us a luxurious car with a great interior, 7 seaters, a hybrid, with Adaptive Cruise control for just less that 2M.

P150K battery will be a pain in the ass in the future.
Ano po diff ng momocoque vs ladder frame?
Ang monocoque is single body construction, while ladder frame means meron syang chassis and then you attach the body gaya ng mga PPVs or mga pick ups
nakulangan ako sa dashboard at ung design
For me it's all worth the price of all the features including being Hybrid KSI WALANG coding up to 2030 BUT but HOWEVER the instance is NO! NO! NO! in Philippine NCR driving Because of FLOODED street of NCR.. that's why's we all settled for SUV of higher ground clearance
good day sir do you think babagay VLF02 sa mazda 3 unit ko?
Parang masyadong simple pero lagyan mo lang mg magandang tires ok na din
any suggestions sir on what mags should i use?
@@inakimiguelgutierrez2252 use Linea Corse 818
for me..its small nd expensive..its Toyota nd its vgood kind..but not worth for its price..for me
Actually sir, tingin ko selling point nitong Zenix is ung hybrid engine. Kung taga metro manila ung buyer, and alam naman natin matraffic dito like in C5, EDSA, etc, kapag ganung stop-start traffic I think magcocompensate doon ung hybrid kasi tatakbo ung hybrid on low speeds.
So, I think tingnan natin in the long-run ung ownership experience mula sa magiging owners. Let's give hybrids a chance kasi in fact madami nang hybrids all over the world, ngayon lang tayo nagencourage nito sa philippines. Kasi sa ngayon ung mga tao parang puro hesitations pa eh about hybrids. So tingnan natin
My diesel po ky
As usual with Toyota brands, less features but overpriced.
Mahal ang price para sa innova. Dapat the highest variant is around 1.6M max.
❣👍👍❣
Ask KO AT OR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISION BA YAN?
Yes sir automatic
Small engine ifthis sitted capacity i think it will consume gas
Its worth all the price since its hybrid and ride comfort and convenience.
With the TSS as well.
Plus d toyota safety sense
Toyota is Toyota...build to last.
Di puedeng pan taxi yan dito sa Baguio
Since it hybrid..worth the price na
With this price, doon nlng ako sa Ford Trend. SUV pa then ok pa ang mga features.
That is for you, but not for all. Di lahat gusto ng SUV lalo pag lagi puno kayo, malayuan byahe, tapos may mga seniors pa. Almost all SUV masisikip ang 3rd row at diyan lamang ang mga Innova at itong Zenix. Also, go find an SUV na under 2M with adaptive cruise control and hybrid.
@@erostyler6226 yes that's for me mas ma enjoy ko pa e-byahe ang SUV lalo na pg loaded. With that price dapat lang may high specs kasi sayang ang binabayaran mo.
Tiggo 8 Pro PEHV ftw
Tested that car and the 3rd row has little room in it. Dagdag mo pa and mahirap an ingress at egress from the 3rd row.
fwd?
Yes sir
Akala ko may panoramic roof sya. Wala pala. Sinabi ba nila ang current sales nyang Q Variant? What i mean, kung may waiting list kung kukuha ka ngayon?
Hindi ko po naitanong
1.9m tas window controls plastic na plastic medyo op talaga sya. ang babayaran mo talaga dito is hybrid.
Toyota highlander of USA
Mazda CX-8 nalang 🙃 dagdag lang ng konti sa budget.
or Tiggo 8 pro 2.0
Sir ano pong masasabe nyo sa montero sport? na sobrang daming haters. Bigla bigla daw nag accelerate yun daw po issue ng montero. Balak ko sana montero sport kaso against po mom ko dun, toyota daw po talaga. Pero alam ko hindi yun totoo na issue sa montero sinisiraan lang talaga kase mabenta at maganda.
Ok naman sya at very reliablez. In terms fo engine and transmission, maganda sya at madaling i maintain. I have mine for 3 years and I have no problems at all
Thank you sir.
Parang di proportional yung size ng wheels.
