Because it's a van that wants you not to believe it's a van but it is one. Toyota famous for doing shit like this. Example is Caldina and wish. They call it sports dunno what vehicle. Mahai mpv call mpv only la. If dun want to be called station wagon.

Status box nowdays the 1st gen already become pasar malam vans. Waiting to see one transport cows only.

what makes it a van? just because its big, tall, has 2 sliding doors and can fit 7/8 people? please enlighten me

it is using monocoque chassis with multi-link suspension at the back, which is much more sophisticated than most econoboxes out there

something like a previous gen starex, that is a van. rides like one, nvh is like one and it looks like one.

I sat one during depart for my father cremation weeks ago. The coffin put behind while i sit in passenger seat at front holding plaque. Quite spacious and gooding comfort.

exactly, it is so spacious and the ride quality really not bad if the driver knows what the fuck he is doing.

people complain it rides like sampan because the driver doesnt know how to drive, the right way is to take it slow and be gentle with any throttle/steering input

Whats up with that body contour lmao

Tbh i dont fkin get it why ppl buy alphard. Heavy, cumbersome, ride like sampan esp on high speed, guzzle fuel like the tank is leaking.

the previous gen (agh30) 2.5 is really not that thirsty, i can do 8-12km/l easily depending on traffic condition. if you are talking about the 3.5 v6, that one is a different monster as you can wheelspin it all the way from 1st to 3rd gear under heavy throttle from standstill.

also it was never meant for tight city driving to begin with, all 7/8 seater mpvs that can still fit cargo with passengers are going to be big lol

I really dont understand the hate here towards Vellfire/Alphard owners.

Maybe many here would never be able to afford one and hence the hate? hmm.gif

kasi chan la, some people always hate things that they cant afford or never tried

just funny how they think alphard/vellfire owners care if the car is pretty or ugly lol

its always the interior that counts, and this new gen has a much improved chassis and drivetrain

going to sell like crazy the moment it hits 1 year old and recon dealers start bringing them into malaysia
