Changan Motor Philippines, Inc. (CMPI) re-entered the country last year with an ambition to strive in the market with its five models. One of the models from the Chinese car brand is the Changan Alsvin which competes in the local subcompact sedan segment.
Changan Alsvin
It hasn’t been a year but the Changan Alsvin has already been making waves especially among owners. With that being said, CMPI shared the stories of six Alsvin owners and the reasons why they are satisfied with their unit.
Both Gina Balinuyos and Val Tocalo praised the subcompact sedan’s design, describing it as an eye-catching vehicle. Balinuyos shared that she had gone through various car brands but only the Alsvin won her heart. Meanwhile, Tocalo highlighted the model’s good price, reliability, and practicality.
One practical offering from Changan
As for owner Romeo Nolasco, he described his vehicle as superb and very satisfying. He further commended the Alsvin by saying, “’yung features, hindi siya nahuhuli, meron siyang kung anong hinahanap mo. Kung ano meron ‘yung mga bagong lumalabas na sedan type, meron din siya. Pero ang pinakagusto ko talaga ay price niya.”
(It has some of the latest features that you will find in a car, including those from new sedan-type models. But the thing that stood out the most for me is the price.)
It is affordable, yet loaded with features
Changan Alsvin owners Neil Hernandez and Elmer Autriz noted the model’s many features while keeping an affordable price tag. Hernandez is ecstatic about his vehicle’s tire pressure monitoring system and good fuel consumption, while Autriz found the subcompact sedan’s features as easy to understand.
Lastly, Angelica Margate is pleased over the Alsvin Platinum’s sunroof feature, saying that her road trips with her husband are even more enjoyable than ever. “Wala pa akong masyadong nakikitang sedan na may sunroof,” she shared.
(I haven’t seen a lot of sedans that offer a sunroof.)
