You cannot have all in 1 in a SUV/MPV.

Generally on safety, a sedan is the safest , eg New Persona, 5 star NCAP rating [ with HPF steel ~ cheapest car that deploy HPF Steel ], low maintenance & highly reliable. Even if shit happens, only a maximum of 5 persons will be affected cause this car can legally sits 5 adults. You have airbags to cushion if crash happens. Only downside of this car is bad FC because its a heavy car BUT its damn stable & handling is like a BMW.

If you really care abt safety for your family, pls avoid SUV/MPV cause it can sit a whole family [8 persons max] & if shit happens, it will HKC the whole family. My fren's father used to advice him if the whole family of 6 were to go to a dinner, they must go in 2 cars cause if shit happens, there will be someone left in the family to take care of things & not HKC the whole family. #True

Its a small 1.5L engine but carrying 1.3 ton kerb weight.
plus auto gearbox.

mind you that Avanza is only 1.1 ton with the same 1.5L engine.

i have test drive it and for slow and moderate driving it's average on flat straight road.

ride is quite stiff being a tall SUV with 17" tyre. Stiffness is almost like Innova.

They claim 15.6km/l on FC but in real world you might get 11km/l. cause the puny 1.5L has to work hard to carry full load.

If you top up a bit more or see if you can find some sales rebate or discount, you can look at the Toyota Innova. All 3 variants have the same amount of safety features and airbags. Price difference seems to be on the interior and lights.

Or consider used Car I guess. Probably can get a decently young toyota Estima around that price.

yeah new Innova quite interesting...now looking some rebates

Just drive safely. Don’t overspeed especially during wet. Many never had accidents before traction control was invented.
