Well... I'm ok with both. 

Practicality both also good, see the Freed as a sedan with big boot.

Freed slight more ex but it's definitely bigger and a hybrid too...

To me value for money comparable for both lor.🤔

Difficult to compare as they are not the same class of vehicles.  Test drive both and compare comfortableness for both you and the passengers. I think Altis would be slightly better for drivability& comfort for both you and 2nd row passengers while being slightly cheaper. Then discount for the flexibility of having 7 seats when you want, a bigger boot and hybrid. This is just my own opinion. End to the day it is your own decision weighing your own pros and cons between the two.

i m also comparing Altis Petrol Elegance (current car) with latest gen Freed HE7.

 

my 2 cents:

Buy Altis petrol if: 

1) u only hav 1 kid max

2) want android wireless

3) want blind spot monitor

4) go JB to pump Ron97 occasionally 

 

Buy Freed Hybrid if:

1) your place of visit have tight parking space (sliding door v useful)

 

 

But pls prepare to get low ball if u want trade in ur current car to Honda AD

Just to check if this model is on its way out? Seems like it launched in 2020 in Singapore? Or was it 2019?

End of 2019 or early 2020 if i am not wrong. This altis seems like look the same from launched until now, like no facelift on the exterior. Even the rims also same all the way. Lol. Unlike all their previous gen altis, always have some facelift.

So by right this year should have brand new model. But don't know will there be a new model of altis since full petrol car not in favour in the market liao. Unless they sell the hybrid version.

Globally, it was launched in 2018.

This year likely to have a new model.

Should be on it's way out. Lots of facelift, added features, GR Sports version all out already (except Singapore). Just wait for Thailand to launch first in South East Asia.
