choose the Toyota VIOS.
Both the City & Vios 1.3 models have approx 85HP but the Vios is 100KG lighter than the City which would translate to quicker acceleration OR better fuel economy.
The upper model has the City still having the 1.3 engine but with 7 speed CVT while the Vios having a 1.5 liter VVTI engine with 115HP and automatic tranny. Both cars still weight approximately the same as their 1.3 version so the VIOS is still lighter by 100KG.
Personally I view the 7 speed CVT tranny as a negative because it means the engine is very underpowered and would be needed to be pushed hard to get any power from it hence 7 gears to keep it in the higher RPMs. Typical Honda engines lack power at low RPMs.
Oh yeah you're right! I think I'll re-watch the film tonight
