    Definitely the Yaris.

    The only reason to get a 1.3L-powered Toyota is because of fuel efficiency. It's the most fuel efficient 1.3 in the market, but only in MT form. Since AT ang tinitingnan mo, same lang ang fuel efficiency ng 1.5 Yaris and 1.3 Vios. Actually, based on what I'm reading here in the forums, the 1.5L Yaris is about 0.5 km/L more efficient than the 1.3 Vios G in city driving.

    Advantages of the Yaris 1.5 over the Vios 1.3 G:

    - Better engine (107 hp vs 85 hp, same fuel efficiency)
    - Better tires (Bridgestone Potenza RE080 vs Yokohama dB)
    - Passenger airbag
    - LED tail lamps
    - Folding rear seats
    - Looks better (personal opinion, you may or may not agree)

    Yaris 1.5:

    Vios 1.3 G:

    Dimensions:
    Vios: 4300 mm x 1700 mm x 1460 mm
    Yaris: 3800 mm x 1695 mm x 1520 mm

    Obviously the Yaris is shorter because it's a hatchback. Passenger space is similar with a slight advantage to the Vios.

    Thank you jut703 for your information. I agree with you, yaris looks better than vios. San dealer ba may display na yaris?

    Di ko lang alam. Try calling your nearest Toyota dealer. Kung walang display unit, I'm sure they have one somewhere in their CASA. Wala namang waiting time ang Yaris eh.

    Yup, the 1.3L AT Vios' might not be as efficient as the 1.3L MT

    AFAIK, 4AT kasi eh. Same lang naman with the Yaris but then, it has a bigger engine so less stress talaga.

    Looks wise, frankly, I prefer the Yaris. But then, I find it too small for my needs. So I was inclined towards the Vios 1.3E MT.

    Ang alam ko bringing that particular Yaris was just an honest mistake made by Toyota, originally yata iba talaga ang dapat na Yaris na dadalhin nila dito. So you might see the Yaris replaced soon. But then, I'm not sure at all. What I'm sure of is, mali yung nadating na Yaris dito since it was posted somewhere here & Autoindustriya as well.

    *jut703, ok tnx for your advice. I'll try to check na lang dealers.

    *renzo, ganun ba? Ano kaya ipapalit nila? Anyway, i plan to use the yaris from/to house/work. Meron pa naman the old reliable innova para sa maramihang karga.

    That I'm not sure of. Maybe an all-new Yaris?

    Btw, you can contact my sales agent from Toyota Global City, he might give you a reasonable offer. Tell him renzo of tsikot recommended you to him.

    Banggitin mo din that you have an existing Innova under your name, he might give you a loyalty discount.

    May all-new Yaris na. Pero hindi pa released, at least not in Southeast Asia.

    If you would look at the Yaris from Thailand, it's still the current model (like what we have here). They're usually the first when it comes to new models since they manufacture most of the company's lineup, so you can take solace that even Thailand still keeps the current Yaris.

    In any case, eto yung new Yaris:

    So sa interior space - mas malaki ba ang vios compared to the yaris or same lang? I'm talking about passenger space. Sa trunk, given na mas malaki ang vios talaga compared to the yaris.

    And i read that they have the same underpinnings? Does this mean same parts - engine, suspension, drivetrain and sa body panel lang nagiiba or am I misunderstanding this?

    Right now am thinking of whether to get a 2nd hand yaris vs 2nd hand vios. Main concern is cabin space
