I've analzyed the charts, the everest sold 6K+ as well as Mux, but this can all be attributed to all the newer models na. that means beaten na ang Mitsu montero dominance, that they have enjoyed since release in 2009.

kaya sabi ko sana balik na lang nila old Montero dito and offer it like 1M for the Manual and 1.1M for the AT then discount heavily.

the provinces are emerging markets. they will pounce on these offers coz the old Montero just looks so reliable and no non-sense vehicle. the new one, ewan ko, even the trailblazer looks better than that
Again, reading comprehension. It was already pointed out that the first article missed out on the Montero.



Yes the Montero has lost its dominance because it's no longer competing against the lackluster Alterra and decade-old Everest. The new generations from Isuzu and Ford are definitely miles better than their predecessors which is why their sales numbers are up, at the expense of the Montero which has drawn polarizing opinions compared to the model it replaced. That said, at the end of the day, more new Monteros have been sold compared to the same period last year.

Yes they could've kept the old Montero and taken on the market for ancient vehicles (currently lorded by the Crosswind). But remember, they were selling that at huge discounts. I'd rather maintain the same sales volume but at better margins than sell more with compressed margins.
