Toyota Allion Review in Kenya

Here is our review of Toyota Allion based on its features, what we noticed after driving it and the feedback from its owners.

Comfort

Toyota Allion is not a luxury vehicle, even so, you will still enjoy comfort rides in this car. The legroom is spacious while the seats are paddled and with headrests. The amount of plastics in the cabin of the Toyota Allion might however be a turnoff. There are also not many tech features.

Driving experience

The ground clearance of the Toyota Allion is okay, there is no need to worry about speed bumps unless they are very big or your car is heavily loaded. When it comes to handling, we will give it an average score, there is also a little body roll. The transmission of your Premio will also affect your driving experience, if you get one with a CVT(which most recent models do come with) the drive is going to be smooth but then, no thrill, manual or automatic Premio will give the driving thrill that lacks on a CVT one.

Reliability

Toyota Allion is a very reliable vehicle, the only major issue might be the quick loss of body shape for the Toyota Allion. The maintenance cost will mostly go to service and not breakdowns. The spare parts are also available and maintenance of the Allion is easy.

Value for money

For someone looking for reliability and fuel economy, Toyota Allion will be a good choice. However, when it comes to comfort, exterior design and interior material quality, we feel you would get something more with the price at which Allion comes at. Additionally, if your Allion losses its body shape quickly, it means the resale value will go down.

We can conclude by saying that Toyota Allion is a good saloon car that you should consider for a family car or running your errands. It comes with basic features but you are going to love the fuel economy and reliability that this vehicle has to offer.
