Geely Okavango vs Toyota Innova - Which is the better MPV?

[@shielachua8497]

True. 🤗🐫😄

[@jeneferdecasa-wingching3067]

Yeah I can personally relate on the big difference of the two cars because we have both of these cars. Innova is really plain and basic while the okavango is so luxurious, high tech and very fun to drive. We have the okavango for 7 months now and no problem so far. I just hope Geely will have a good aftersales service here in the province just like we experienced in Toyota. But all I can say our okavango so far so good! Keep it up Geely!

[@KyleLiongCars]

I do hope they will have more branches for greater reach in the near future :)

Everyone that I know, has either owned or driven a Toyota Innova. It's without doubt, the perfect family MPV. It's Reliable, Nippy, Looks Good and Fuel efficient. It also has variants that will cater to every caste. From the Basic J that manong Taxi Drivers from Baguio drive, to the Top of the line V which doesn't look out of place when parked next to mid-sized luxo-barges. But with it now costing more than the Camry, it's more feasible to buy the new kid on the block. The Okavango.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Exactly. I agree with you there. To add to that, the current model's V variant isn't exactly as "luxurious" as it was back when this body was first released so it sure is looking old in the looks and features department

[@joaquinfranco9012]

[@jhunalmero8891]

The only thing Toyota Innova has advantage over Geely Okavango is the fuel consumption. Geely Okavango is only available in 1.5 ltr. gasoline engine (Premium Gasoline is the recommended to use) while the Toyota Innova is available in diesel. The rest of it, Geely Okavango is the winner. In terms of looks, no need to explain plus panoramic sunroof Geely is the winner. A real head turner. Technology (very advance and very clear 360 camera and sensors, remote control start engine / turning on the aircon (So its cold already when you enter the car) and remote control opening of trunk (if you have things on your hand its easy to put it in the trunk). Has a deep compartment in the center armrest in the front row to make your drinks or food stay cold. Touch screen center console is big, clear, bright and lot of useful things there (but the sad thing is its not android / I phone compatible), Speed (3 options eco, comfort and sport for Geely Okavango).... its fast....way faster than toyota innova. Space, the Geely okavango is way bigger (Can fit 12 passengers...yes we did it 3 days ago....Even us....we are all shock......even my 5'8 feet niece seats comfortably on the 3rd row. We tried it many times. Right now Geely Okavango has 3yrs free PMS service. This is my personal experience. I've driven many toyota innova both manual and automatic but its no way near the Geely Okavango except for fuel consumption because diesel is way cheaper than premium gasoline. But if you are always stock in traffic and a slow driver then its very economical.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Fuel consumption ng oka vs innova?

[@KyleLiongCars]

Wala ba sa video?

[@Ivan-bg1jp]

To be honest, it will be hard to fault those who'll go with the Innova. It's reliable as fuck, has power, fuel efficiency, space, and good NVH suppression. When you buy an MPV, you need it to serve its purpose as a people-hauler, a family vehicle. Wala dapat sakit sa ulo. For upper middle class people, it's an Innova on the garage as a utility then a second car in which they enjoy.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yes that makes sense. Not quite agree with "good" NVH suppression, but yes it is adequate for most needs.

[@michaelnacar6379]

I know what I want too. I'll go for Geely Okavango! I don't know why some people out there tend to go for the so called "Reliable Car or Toyota to ehh😂" rather than trying some newly endorsed car. Indeed! Truly a great review Kyle!

i was choosing between innova ang okavango. ended up going with innova for its reliability and simple but essential features. maganda ang features ng okavango no doubt about it. but at the end of the day i decided that i really don't need all those features. the more complex something is, the more things can go wrong. i don't want to be stuck in the middle of nowhere with some problem that a run of the mill mechanic cannot figure out. siguro if geely's presence and infrastructure in the country will be stronger then it's a different story.

Kung hindi ka nag a-upgrade every 5 years, at wala kang spare na kotse, all you need is reliability and parts availability. Kasama sa ownership experience ang maintenance, at kung isa isa nang kailangan palitan yung mga parts, laking sakit ng ulo kung matagal ang downtime dahil sa paghihintay dumating yung stock.

[@kimmunoz2872]

Would the Okavango carry a full load, all 7seats occupied with ease? Can we use it offroad?

[@KyleLiongCars]

Tbh I haven't tried it on both of those scenarios, but seeing as it has way more usable power than the Innova when both have only 1-2 passengers, I'm sure it can easily do 7 as well. For off road, I guess super mild off roading is fine, but lacking four wheel drive and adequate ground clearance + locking differentials makes it unsuitable for heavy off roading.

@@KyleLiongCars thanks for the review. GEely recently opened a branch at dumaguete. Im really sold out into the design and technology, however im skeptical with the longevity and the availability of spare parts.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Spare parts availability shouldn’t be a big problem as dealers are required to stock up on parts… at least the more common ones. There was an interview too with Geely saying they could easily ship parts as they will be coming from nearby China lang. For longevity, only time will tell at this point

I'm choosing between CRV and Okavango.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Tech wise, it’s really a no brainer to go for the Okavango as well as 3rd row space. The CRV though might have better resale value, and as of now, will surely have more available parts than the Okavango. Not sure how Geely parts availability will be in the next few years but given their sales numbers, I’m sure parts will soon be abundant, As for Volvo buying out Geely’s stake, at least for the already designed Okavango, I doubt it will make any difference

Kyle, based on the fuel economy and price of fuel as of this writing, approximately 1peso/km or even more is their difference. So if long 600km (Cavite-Sagada v.v) drive with Innova will cost around 2800+php for diesel at let us say 10kpl and 50/L diesel. For Okavango, it will be around 4000+php for the same distance at 8kpl and 55/L gasoline. Do you think it is worth it? Kapalit ng features, comfort, and nimbleness?

[@quannar]

I think kahit yung ibang established brand like those Korean brands and some Japanese like Suzuki nagkaka issue sila din sa Parts what more pa sa baguhang Brands like Geely na recently lang sila sa market - but to answer your question, yes matagal talaga parts based sa feedback ng mga Geely Owner sa mga FB Groups may isa akong nabasa umabot ng 5months bago naayos ng Casa. But again konting cases lang yun compare sa halos 90% happy sila Geely Cars nila. With the current road conditions at madaming kamote riders sa atin expect mo na anytime magakakaissue ka sa sasakyan mo kahit anong pagiingat mo so mag Toyota kung issue mo parts or wait for three to five years baka that time wala na masyado issue sa parts si Geely ✌️

Are those seats in the Okovango urban plus for real? Or is it just fake synthetic leather? Love all your contents by the way! Do you know What new vehicle will Geely Philippines bring in this year? God bless you sir!

Still will go for Innova, Need to know first If the geely brand would be reliable before i switch. Simple as that.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Fair enough. Will still need some time for the Geely cars to prove themselves :)

[@leonilotarona6513]

The more features the more problem in a long run. More features more maintenance. Do you really need that features for geely?

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yes of course because I want to get my money's worth haha It's like saying that you wouldn't want to earn more money, because the more money you have, means more money you can lose. If you think about it with the same logic, then you would only desire a set amount of money to live the bare minimum.

[@Melooooo1507]

It's been 2weeks with the Okavango... And they say it's ok to still love and adore it coz it's new..but I have a feeling it's gonna feel like honeymoon each time we'll get in that car.. Innova to me is a rolling Jollibee on the jungles of manila.. I want a real burger not a mediocre one 🤭😅

Hahaha true

The Geely Okavango is Very Comfortable and Family Car

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yes

[@allen7777]

in terms of practicality most people prefer (7people/2050L space) than (8 people/1128L space).

[@KyleLiongCars]

They do?

Rear wheel drive, diesel engine, body on frame chassis, parts availability, less tech=less prone to breakage, maintenance friendly, torque converter>dct,

How is having RWD an advantage on an MPV though. I do agree with the rest in terms of dependability

[@Zamilsalleh]

Is Okavango able to survive in offroad situation?

[@KyleLiongCars]

Tbh I haven't tried it. Off road, I guess super mild off roading is fine, but lacking four wheel drive and adequate ground clearance + locking differentials makes it unsuitable for heavy off roading.

[@jasonvillamor6598]

Yes, mild offroading can. But don't expect it to go heavy offroading .. it's not 4wd.

[@jimmyarranchado1243]

Well in this time, tataas lang lalo ang presyo ng petrol ng Cars, and that's a major advantage of Innova, and its deisel. for occasionally use ng cars ok ang Okavango. Pag people hauler Innova pa din daw as per manong na nag wawakaran from Cam Norte - Manila, laking tipid kumpara sa mga kasama nya na naka 7/5 seaters like expander and coolray. And the word RELAIBILTY is big factor, if mga 10 years na dito sina Geely and they can attached the word Reliabilty in their brand. for sure matatalo na yang Toyota.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yes I do agree na hindi pa subok si Geely, but hopefully we will know pero tama, mga 5-10 years pa bago magkaka-alaman. Kahit tumaas pa presyo ng gasolina, problem is napakatagal bago mabawi yung price difference. For example kahit Innova gas vs Innova diesel na lang. Kahit na mas matakaw and mas mahal presyo ng gasolina, laki naman ng price difference and mas mura bilhin yung Innova gas.

EV is future and green. ❤❤❤❤ - EV can use electricity from Sun, wind, water energy, nuclear energy - EV do not use fossil fuel - EV do not make air pollution in the city - EV has less noise pollution - EV is simple and cheap compare to fueled engine which always need more money to maintain - EV uses cheapest energy about 1 dollar for 100km

True for the most part. But also check how EV batteries are made haha

All cars are reliable brand new, wait 10 to 20 years and significant mileage, then you'll know the difference between a top japanese brand and a Chinese Cadillac imitation. Even mechanics with at least 20 years experience, the real car experts, know this. From engine blocks to pistons, theres always a huge difference when it comes to quality.

[@KyleLiongCars]

We’ll know by then :)

[@johnnybimmer2661]

@@KyleLiongCars Yeah, and until then people who are looking to buy their first and only car, should invest in tried and tested brands. We're talking about a huge investment here, not merely a couple of thousands. For people who can afford multiple cars, sure, why not gamble that million away.

[@KyleLiongCars]

I disagree with “should.” It’s still their choice. Some people dream of having tech filled cars so it really depends on their priorities

[@johnnybimmer2661]

@@KyleLiongCars Ginawa mong Literal chief, I'm talking in principle. The value of a commodity is relative to its quality. Quality determines value. Thats why we have Fortune 500 companies. Of course in a free market you are more than welcome to buy whatever you want. Given na yan. What I'm basically saying is people gamble with these new brands, and its no small investment unless you are filthy rich. This is why veteran Mechanics are the only car experts, social media car reviewers are all about making noise, mechanics though give it to you from a mechanical experience standpoint.

Glad to help

[@starski3leaky779]

Kung ako na bibili ng 1st car ko at maybe my only car,sa Innova na ako. Maybe proven na at tested.Bigay ko nlg yang Okavango sa mga maraming ssakyan or multiple owner ng ssakyan. Okavango parang ngsugal ka this time. Maybe after 5 years if they prove something na. In short if pera ko pambili sa Innova ako,pero kung bigay lg at pili ako, sa Okavango ako tapos ibili ko sariling pera ko ng Innova.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Fair point sir :)

[@leviathan9159]

Meron na bagong Toyota Veloz. i think Veloz mas magandang itapat sa Okavango.. pero Veloz pa rin ako lol

[@KyleLiongCars]

Nope. Veloz is high trim Avanza pa rin. Smaller class than Okavango

[@iamcanon25]

Okavango for sure! price difference alone and the tech and features that you get with the okavango makes it an easy choice, plus 5 years warranty pa yan!. Reliability? sabi nga ni King Panda, lahat ng sasakyan nasisira, mapa toyota or any japanese brands pa yan, nasa pag aalaga na yan ng user/owner, proper maintenance and good driving habit sigurado tatagal talaga sasakyan mo. Parts availability naman, understood nman na yan for a new car model na hirap pa or matagal and pyesa but ang importante is meron makukuhang parts so for me worth parin the risk of owning a Geely car. Plus points pa na Okavango is gwapo and pansinin talaga sa daan magmumukha ka talagang mayaman 😄

[@KyleLiongCars]

Sooner or later dadami na rin hopefully parts ng Geely if a lot of people buy them rin

@@KyleLiongCars same with Hyundai/Kia 15-20 years ago, availability of parts din issue nila dati pero ngaun flooded na ang market natin ng parts and even aftermarket parts and accessories. So i think it won't take long for some Chinese brands to catch up in terms of parts availability

@@iamcanon25 Yup I agree. Same issue rin naman dati with mga Japanese cars a few decades back haha

Okavango beats Innova on everything by far. Once you have stepped inside a Geely you will never like a Toyota. Toyota has a good track record of making reliable cars but thats pretty much it.
