After Comparing Alphard (40 Series) and Noah (90 Series), I've Signed for the Noah Hybrid S-Z
I did it...
I've gone ahead and signed the contract for the Noah (90 series) Hybrid S-Z...
The delivery date is estimated to be about a year from now. That's quite a wait...
I hope the delivery can be expedited.
I used to own the previous-generation Voxy, and when I compare it to the Noah:
The ride comfort has significantly improved.
The forward visibility is better, making it easier to see the surroundings.
The advanced features are more impressive, almost to the point of being breathtaking.
Actually, I was also considering the new Alphard (40 series), but I deliberately chose the Noah. Of course, the new Alphard is more luxurious and feature-packed. However, the feeling of freedom when driving the Noah just felt better to me. Additionally, the cargo space after folding up the third-row seats in the Noah is more spacious, and this aspect left a better impression on me. With the new Alphard, I felt that the presence of the raised third-row seats was quite strong. Maybe the 30 series had less of an impact.
In terms of fuel efficiency and price, the Noah certainly has the upper hand. My wife also found the Noah easier to handle.
So, I decided to go with the Noah.
Furthermore, I wanted to keep the cost as low as possible this time, so I decided to go for aftermarket floor mats instead of the genuine ones. There seem to be options available at reasonable prices. There's quite a variety too.
It's a completely different price range compared to genuine products, so it looks like I'll be able to save some money. I plan to do a lot of research and find something I like while waiting for the delivery.
In the future, I'll share the options I choose.
By the way, the prices have gone up way too much due to the model change!
