Do all Vios variants have the same chassis?

[badkuk]

An officemate of mine argues that the 1.5L variant has a different, sturdier chassis than the 1.3L version. pareho lang for all variants right?

[telong75]

pare parehas lang siguro, sa suspension siguro may pagkakaiba kaya parang mas sturdy feel ng higher variant.

ang magkaiba ay yung 1st and 2nd gen

[uls]

yes, all Vios/Belta variant same chassis

iba iba lang engine (1.3L 2NZ-FE, 1.5L 1NZ-FE, 1.6L 4ZR-FE) for different markets

why would Toyota use different chassis for 1.3 and 1.5?

The driving feel difference might be the wheel/tire size difference. The 1.3L units have 14inch wheels while the 1.5L units have 15inch wheels.

And if you are going to ask if that "small" 1 inch difference has such a big effect, yes it can especially with tires with shorter sidewalls.

baka naka 1.5 yung officemate, eh ayaw niya nasasabi ng iba na naka vios lang siya (taxi kasi)

so sinasabi niya sa mga tao iba ang chassis ng 1.5 sa 1.3

para mas angat siya sa taxi hehe

[tidus1203]

Pero mukha parin taxi kotse nya maskin ano sabihin mo!

Anyway, no they have the same body... Walang lamang yung 1.5 sa 1.3 in terms of body...
