What is the diff between premio & allion?

[Dscheng]

Hi all,

 

What is the difference between toyota premio & allion? Beside the tailight diff, i can't see any diff le. Engine spec and other feature same too right?

[Tohto]

Cosmetic different in the exterior. Interior is same, engine spec is same.

[Friendstar]

Mainly the design.

 

I personally prefer the premio. More Camry like.

 

The Allion used to be my fav. But front and rear don't match leh

[Mobile1]

I am driving the Allion. Both differ only on exterior.. The rest remains the same.

[Dscheng]

The fuel tank is 60L? if 15km/l FC, really can go up to 900km??

[Kangadrool]

If you're looking for 1.8L version, more luck with Premio than Allion.

 

1.5L CMI for both. Even char bor drivers also hiam boh lat.

[Dscheng]

So jialat huh? A bit underpowered i understand la. Since the FC is so good. Allion gearbox is CVT right? does it have steptronic gear?

[Tommimakinen]

hi bro tohto n mobile1... long time no see... :)

 

im driving an allion... fc ard 13km/l, running on 215/45/r17... 30% urban 70% highway gave me 650km on 55l... pick up from stand still is abit slow but at 100km/h, rpm is at 2000... ever hit 180kmh cleared meter easily... high end rev torque is gd... above 3000rpm...

 

space- i'm abt 1.8m tall and with the driver seat all e way to the back, my brother, who is also about 1.8m can sit behind me, no complains, all the way to kl...

 

difference with premio i know is crome door handle n side door protector... diff ppl have diff taste but i stick to my allion... no regrets!!!

 

served me well for the past 2yrs... no headache except when my battery kaput...

 

lastly to those allion n premio owners pls do join us on ALLION CLUB SG on FB... cheers!!! :)

Is it stable at high speed? I got bad experience with VIOS.. floating feeling.

[Harveynorman]

The allion at speed of 120km/h is as stable as a rock. dont need to worry.

[Mobile1]

Going at 160kmh on NSH.. Still sturdy.. No worries on stability. On 21545r17.. FC at 12km/L.. gone for 630km on 55L

[Dscheng]

Does allion has steptronic gear?

 

 

[Res2dent]

just curious. how come some all ion owners say their FC can go up to 17km/l whereas my premio which is exactly the same as a allion, can only go as high as 11.6km/l maximum? It is measured using the mileage you accumulate and divide by how much you pump right? I always pumped when left 2 bar. always about 42L max. so I take avg 480km/42L. smith like that.

 

Specs: 14" rims with yokohama decibel DB tires. configuration is 185/70 R14.

Engine oil: using Mobil1 5w40 engine oil

Driving on about 30% expressway 70% urban. RPM seldom go above 2200. using Shell 98.

You already have the answer.

70% are on urban, getting 12.6km/l is good.

BTW, 2200rpm is too like foot during pick up. Overly light foot might not always give good FC. Try to step harden till around 3000rpm during pick up, you may be suprise to see better FC.

I am constantly getting 14-15km/l with 50/50% driving pattern and are not light foot. Always accelerate above 3000rpm during pick up.

BTW, I drove the car for 3yrs and sold off last year.
