My wife would like to upgrade her ride. Her current car is a 2002 City Type Z. Her route is just from Paranaque to Makati then back.
Our choices are the Celerio,Picanto and i10.
I would like to ask the pros and cons of each of you guys to help us make a decision.
Her needs
- easy to drive
- automatic
- safety features
- fuel efficient
- minimal operating cost (periodic maintenance)
Thanks for your inputs guys.
Btw we did not include the spark,fiesta,nor mazda 2 since our budget would not permit us to purchase anything higher than 600k.

i10 ako, as much as I like the Celerio more in terms of interior and exterior it only has THREE CYLINDERS!!!! The i10 has the 1.2L 4 cylinder...

*TS: How about a 2nd hand car worth below P600K? I'm sure you can buy one with still a few kms in the odometer.

It's a toss up between the i10 or the Celerio for me.
But between the two, really, I`d pick the Celerio for the fact that it's cuter.
Pero yes, cmiiw, AFAIK some Suzuki CASA's have horrible after-sales service.
Diba ang spark is under 600k ? Pero yeah, Chevy kasi baka tagilid din maintenance. Hehehe.

^^manual ata yung spark sir renzo. hehe.
for me, i10. The facelift and the updated engine wins it for me...
that pod-mounted tach on the celerio looks pretty cool though. hehe

For me, it's the i10. The Suzuki Celerio might be cute and all but the engine sound weezy when pushed to near it's limits which isn't that much and the shifter felt too low on the floor (at least for me).
The i10 feels better built among the three (but the Picanto is also very good). Handles well and rides comfortably, felt almost you are in a slightly bigger car. The fold down rear seats help increase the cargo space to twice it's original area.

May 16th, 2011 08:03 PM #10IMHO i10 nalang. It was just recently refreshed, the 1.2L engine is the most powerful among the choices at 87ps/120Nm and it has the longest warranty.
