help me pls (Kia Rio 1.4 MT vs Toyota Vios 1.3e)

[virgilson]

tnks guys. ill go with the vios

[renzo_d10]

been in your shoes last month, and the Vios won. instead of 1.3E, we got the 1.3G instead to get the 1.5 mags and foggies.
The Kia's interior is really panalo! kaso, this will be a keeper na car, so the T-badge overshadowed all the pro's of the Rio.

Same same.

Around June we were choosing between the Vios & the Accent MT. We got the Vios eventually since it's going to be a keeper for around 7-10 years I guess.

If you really want the Rio, get the 1.2LX MT. Pretty efficient, might lack the punch but a really good-looking point a to point b vehicle.

Unit I got was a 1.3E MT since the 1.3G doesn't have a manual version.

Cheers.

No love for the Mazda 2 1.3S?



No FC or quality issues unlike the Rio, and just as frugal as the Vios, but has much more character. Palitan lang yung steel rims okay na. Only downside is space, but it can still fit 3 in the back plus some groceries in the cargo area.

Don't get the Toyota because its a taxi
Don't get the Toyota because its common
Don't get the Toyota because its maintenance is cheap
Don't get the Toyota because its fuel efficient
Don't get the Toyota because its resale value is high

The Rio 1.2 is actually better in all ways than a Vios 1.3, except maybe for economy... but it's not a gas guzzler, at least.

The Mazda2 1.3 is better than either car... except for the issue of rear seat space.

Love your own, syempre Vios ako.

Btw, malakas ba sa gas yung 1.4 na Rio pati MT? Sa mga naririnig ko sa Accent club matipid ang MT pero may engine knocking/low power issues. Sa Rio naman, may naririnig ako na FC issue pero wala akong naririnig na complaints sa performance. Same engine lang sila WIK.

kia rio for me.. maganda design... unlike ng vios.. parang hindi kotse tingnan lalo na sa side view.. para syang extended na beetle... yung gen1.5 ng vios maganda...

yung mga nagsasabing malakas sa gas ang rio eh bago pa lahat yun.. wait till you get 10K kms...

[danaflor]

none of the two, korean car is a big NO, issues before are still there issues today (im not generalizing though).... I will look for another japanese car and put vios at the bottom of my list....

How about the City 1.3A to the TS?
