January 17th, 2007 06:16 AM #2Avanza J. It's much more versatile, and the Vios is just too damn small. I mean, hindi na ako kasya sa likod ng Vios (sayad ulo sa kisame). I'm not even that tall (5'10") to be considered "big".
The Avanza J is probably slightly underpowered, but not too much that it won't get you up hills fully loaded (besides, that's unsafe and unroadworthy).

January 17th, 2007 08:25 PM #4I'll get the Avanza J. Konti lang idadagdag mas malaki pa. And if house-work-house lang and pasyal lang sa mall over the weekends. Ok na Avanza.

January 17th, 2007 09:13 PM #6halos pareho lang itong dalwa..
Vios J and Avanza J:
parehas na bare models
parehas na 1.3 engine,
parehas na manual transmission
parehas din ng passenger capacity (5 people)
*sa avanza pwede ka pa magpalagay ng ng third row seat para maging 7 ang passengers mo.
Sa price lang nagkatalo,
Price:
Avanza J: 582,000.00
Vios J: 553,000

January 17th, 2007 09:21 PM #7I recommend that you go for the Avanza. You can carry a lot more things in there compared to the Vios, which is relatively smaller...

January 17th, 2007 10:07 PM #8They're different engines indeed. The main difference lies in layout. The Vios has its engine mounted transversely (cross-wise), while the Avanza's engine sits in longnitudally (lengthwise). Originally Posted by buknoy2002
The Avanza and the Vios are hardly the same vehicle. Of all the things you listed, you forgot the most important part: space. The space the Avanza has to offer is a) more and b) is a lot more useful. This alone makes the extra P30k worth it. Originally Posted by space invader

Other than that, the Avanza is rear-wheel-drive, the Vios is front-wheel drive, which has handling, fuel economy and maintenance implications.
However, the Avanza is taller, so it's not exactly the most car-like car to drive.
Then there's the looks. The Vios is very cute, especially in that orange color, while I find the Avanza's rear end to be very... I dunno.
Given the choice though, I'll take the Avanza anyday. In the blue color please.

January 18th, 2007 05:23 AM #10actually vios j talaga plano ko na bilhin...
but when i saw the avanza j and conti lang difference, medyo nag isip ako. ang worry ko lang talaga e baka under powered yung avanza j. kasi 1.3 engine, tapos around 100kg heavier(sa gross weight) yng avanza vs. the vios.
do you think under powered sya pag 7 passengers ?
kaya pa rin kya nito umakyat ng baguio?

January 18th, 2007 02:04 PM #13guys, what if it's the avanza vs the 1.3 honda city? a friend of mine wants to buy the city to upgrade his old honda civic and because he just had his first baby. i told him to consider the avanza instead although medyo honda fan siya

January 18th, 2007 02:05 PM #14yep, it would really depend on what you prioritize. if it's space, then you should get the AUV/MPV-ish Avanza. if you value a more car-like experience and could sacrifice space, take the Vios.
