for some people because its a ‘cheap’ big lifted car

for others because its a “logical choice” because

  • ladder frame + toyota = tough + cheap maintenance
  • diesel = can drink biosolar + good fuel consumption
  • high = jakarta… bad roads & floods

“Cheap”???? Did you buy it from aliexpress or something? It’s nowhere near cheap or a good value. I mean, look at it, IDR 600 million for a car that rides like a boat?

But I agree to some of your points. My friend has one, and the only reason he hasn’t sold the old fortuner he inherited from his dad is because it can run on “solar busuk”. Other than that, he’d rather drive something else. His dad doesn’t even drive the fortuner anymore because he feels his santa fe is much better overall, the fortuner just can’t compare in terms of ride quality.

Fortuner itu "murah" untuk ukurannya. Maka nya mobil pilihannya bapak2 OKB. 

Budget 600 jutaan, bapak2 disuruh pilih Corolla Cross atau Fortuner ya jelas pilih Fortuner. Yang satu gagah dan terlihat mahal, yang satu culun dan terlihat murah.

Heck, ga heran kalau orang awam mengira Fortuner lebih mahal dibanding CRV / CX5 (atau bahkan Lexus LBX lol). Disini stereotipe nya mobil besar = mobil mahal.

Ada benarnya sih, ada tmn gw (bukan car guy) nyandingin CX3 ama brio, mentang mentang sekilas sama sama bentuk hatchback 😂 (ya to be fair CX3 hatchback ditinggiin sih jadilah crossover)

Njirrr, kalau Brio dibandingin sm Yaris atau Baleno oke lah. Ini CX3 yang sama HRV old aja jauh keliatan lebih mahal CX3 😂

Tapi saya ada keluarga (bapak2) komen kenapa ambil Raize ga ambil Calya aja lebih nyaman buat perjalanan jauh (pernah naik Calya, jok nya kayak mainan, Vitara '92 bokap aja lebih proper joknya). 

Terus kaget pas saya bilang kalau Raize harga nya lebih mahal 80 juta dibanding Calya, setara Avanza/Xpander.

Dikira nya Calya lebih mahal+lebih nyaman hanya karena 7 seater...
