All New 2013 Toyota Vios (3rd Gen)

[JohnM]

there are people saying na mas magaan daw ang gen1 kesa gen 2,
and now mas magaan din ang gen 3 sa gen 2.
anong meron sa gen2 for it having a slightly heavier body than the 1st and 3rd gen?

The gen 2 is a lot bigger than the gen 1. According to the press release the gen 3 uses lighter but stiffer metal alloys.

Malaki difference sa features between j and e. check this out: ************ - Philippine Car News, Test Drives, and Prices: Toyota Motor Philippines Launches All-new Vios (w/ Brochure)

Thanks for the link sir. Medyo nahirapan ako basahin pero parang ok na ang J. Ang nakakamiss lang na feature sa E is yung ABS. Others are just nice to have. Ok na ok na talaga ang J for point a to point b driving. Aftermarket wheels nalang popogi na lalo. Sana wag muna lumabas yung mga taxi version! For the novelty of the new owners.

Mas malaki pero mas magaan naman daw ang gen 3 compared to the gen 2

i hope this means we'll see a slight improvement in FC.

an owner!
i know it's early and will still likely improve, but can you give us an idea of your new ride's fuel efficiency? km traveled per liter of fuel..
thanks.

*dr. d. Kaka full tank ko pa lang, and it looks like its around 10.5km/li mixed city (las pinas) and highway (SLEX). Monitor ko ulit sa next full tank ko.

*jaymd, Mukhang ok naman and I don't find it lacking (for me and another passenger). Still feel the jolt and acceleration once I depress the pedal, although haven't tried doing a 200kph yet . Pero syempre compared sa 1.6 at sa 1.8s, tangible na ang difference. Pero compared sa 1.3 na city, parang mas my oomph pa yung vios (just my opinion, not trying to flame). And regards weight, JohnM is right, toyota has been saying all along that its lighter by 3% due to lighter but stiffer metal alloys.

Anybody noticed the prominent "aerodynamic bumps" on the roof ? First time to see it on a car anywhere so far.

*number001, yup, noticed it too (aerodynamic bumps). kala ko yupi, pero symmetrical, both left and right at sa rear din. And was also happy to see that the spare tire was set on the same wheels as the other four and not steel rims.

catamaran roof design daw...

Not that much. Kung kaka-Vikings mo lang patas lang din :hysterical:

IIRC the Toyobaru also has a catamaran roof. Increases stiffness and height over the driver and passenger.

how much yung full tank ninyo?
kasi kami from empty with warning light on = 32 Liters/1664 pesos only.
then after 115.7 KM nagpapuno ulit kami tapos 15.9 liter ang full tank.
thats 7.27 km to a liter only?
thats city driving - marikina - katipunan area.
