July 15th, 2015 10:26 PM #1I'm looking at purchasing a small car for my college student son. I am considering a wigo, mirage, 1.2L swift and this all new celerio. A/T , Fuel efficiency and acquisition cost is a primary consideration. Has anybody test drive the new celerio ? many thanks.

If budget permits, get a Honda Brio. Excellent power to weight ratio. It has a 1.3L 4-cylinder i-VTEC motor in a sub-1000 kg car. List price is PHP 609,000 for the entry level MT.

Sa isang college student kasi importante ang image, and among your choices parang Swift ang pinaka appealing. My vote goes to the Swift by this virtue alone.
Kung value for money (total package sa FC, acquisition cost after discounts, ownership cost, parts availability) sa Mirage ako by a small margin. Pero konting subjective reasoning lang ma-sway na sa Swift.
Admin, recommending transfer of this thread in the comparison section with "wigo, mirage, 1.2L swift and this all new celerio" as suggested title.

Would recommend the Swift 1.2 since I own one, but for sane reasons I'd recommend the Celerio or Mirage. The Swift looks great, and is very fun to drive so the temptation to drive fast will be even more prominent. These are things you don't want to give your kid in college. Call them risks, if you will.
As for the Celerio vs Mirage, the Celerio is cheaper, slightly more spacious and slightly easier to maneuver because of its smaller external dimensions. The smaller dimensions are a godsend in when parking and in traffic which made me appreciate my Hyundai i10 which was my car back in college. The cheaper Mirage variant (GLX) has about the same amount of equipment as the Celerio AT, with the exception of ABS which is only available on the higher-end GLS variant. Both are very fuel efficient, with a slight edge to the Celerio because it has the new K10B Dualjet engine and a smaller 1.0L displacement. Some Mirage vs Celerio comparo reviews actually show the Celerio to have better fuel consumption. Would actually choose the Celerio in this case.

August 15th, 2015 05:50 AM #10I feel that the mirage cvt's ace vs the other micro cars in the country is its fuel efficiency. This new celerio trumps that and so appears to be more and more a better and more exciting proposition overall...
