I saw that a brand new Toyota avanza costs arround 14k euros in Indonesia.

This seems very cheap for me. For sure toyota saves on some parts so that the Cars can be Sold more cheaper over there.

Does anyone know how these Toyota can be sold so cheap in Indonesia?

    Internationally speaking, a car that has “trouble” going up hills is far more acceptable elsewhere than it is in North America.

      My 4Runner “has trouble” going up hills. Only 150 HP and takes a longer time to accelerate to traffic speeds.

      The fact is most new cars these days (in US) can do 0-60 under 8 seconds and have like the equivalent of 250 HP- while being pretty comfy.
