Review
Traded in my wife's mid sedan for this MPV.
Tested the following:
Previa - $184k - good handling, space < Elgrand, punchy engine, interior more plush
Mazda 8 - $178k - low head room...NEXT
Ford Galaxy / SMAX - $16xk - interior looks like budget airlines but Engine BEST!
Honda Odyssey - $180k - Looks cool, great interior, i didnt test drive...if i didnt buy the elgrand, i would have bought this! The rear seats are FANTASTIC! can hide underneath if not in use!
Citroen Grand Picasso - face lifted model not in yet
With the selection available & then some, chose the Elgrand for the Value for $ , comfort and size factor. Warning....Fuel consumption is real horrid.
What I like
Size
Exterior Styling
Auto tail gate
Auto sliding doors
Presence
VALUE FOR $$$
What I do not like
Interior a bit dull but its a family MPV...so...bubble gum and food stains would probably liven it up!
Engine sounds strained when pushed.
F.C. is horrid.
Review
Elgrand is build with good interior luxury, great passenger carrier if you have a driver that fetches you everywhere
What I like
- nice interior
- very spacious
- easy to handle steering wheel considering it's megasize
- thoughtful in design, height internally to make passenger very comfortable
- great people mover vehicle (if you are not in a huge rush)
- nissan offered 5 years unlimited warranty
- compared to Alphard, it is quite value for money for the same type capacity
What I do not like
- low powered engine
- boring good old MPV with come s with no frills
- too much shiny metal chrome design externally
- bulky and boxy from external
