The Alsvin sold in Philippines matches with the one sold in our market in terms of specs & features. Like Pakistan, the base model in Philippines too, comes with a 1.4L engine that comes paired to a 5-speed manual transmission. Although there is no concept of certified fuel economy testing of cars sold in our country, however one cannot assume the locally assembled Alsvin to deliver exactly similar results due to the availability of varied or low-quality fuel sold here.
