-i was surprised sa performance ngetong car...mabilis pala.para ka ding nag dadrive ng 1.5 na car.mas hahataw kapag ginamit mo yung 7 speed.
-mas masarap ang handling ng city compare sa vios due to electric power steering...parang nag lalaro sa arcade
-suspension is much more better sa honda city compare to vios.
-mas better outward vision ng city sa vios.
- one thing i dont like about hondas ay mahina talaga ang break...
-in terms of looks...i'd still go for toyota vios.hehe
overall score rating 1 to 10
vios 9 , city 8.....hirap mag decide pero ok talaga itong dalawang car...

I feel the power steering is overboosted in the Honda City... lacks feedback from the front wheels thru the steering wheel. SEGA's DAYTONA USA has more feedback.

The suspension is too stiff. My brother tried reducing the air pressure in my mom's Honda City but I still feel its still stiff when I drove it tonight.

The seats are too tall... I have a hard time getting in the car.. I have to bend my head over at impossible angles to get in to the driver's seat.

sa vios kun full tank umaabot ng mga 320 kms bago refill
sa city mga aroung 350....depende sa pag gamit ng car.kapag palagi ginagamit yung +/- sa steering wheel ccuro 280 kms na lang ubos na, mas matakaw kasi ang 7 speed mode....kaya payo ko sa city owners , just use D-N lang hehe...

Full Tank up to 1/4? or Full Tank up to "E"? Ilan Liters ba tanke ng Vios at City.

[Ch|p^^]

Kaiinggit naman kayo.... naka Vios... Haha... One of my "likable" cars... (trip ko tlga mga maliliit na cars... given that I have a HB now). So kamusta na ang Vios after almost 2 Months? ;) Meron bang Test-drive promo ang Toyota like Honda does? I'd like to try both of them kasi (Vios and City) ;)

yahooooo! ganda ng vios 1.5G!

[ssaloon]

city 1.5 vtec- 42 liters
vios 1.5G - 45 liters

[chris_d]

estimate lang ba yung fuel mileage figures or based on computation when you purchased gasoline? parang ang baba ng mileage eh, ganun rin mileage namin sa 2.0 liter car namin....

[mar38]

320 kms per 45 liters gas... wow that's NOT cool!

Toyota ads says it can reach up to 20kms/li... some toyota agent says 1peso per kilometer consumption daw... mali pala lahat.

yun base model kaya na 1.3 ganito din kalakas sa gas?

[bender]

Mileage depends on a great deal on driving style as well as road conditions.

[alex manalo]

just got my vios last Jan 5, and from my initial findings 13km/l and consumption nya. hopefully magimprove pa kapag naka 5/10 thousand km na sya. byahe ko daily is imus via buhay na tubig/aguinaldo highway to makati and vice versa, so mixed na highway, city and cavite style traffic na stop and go. happy na ko with the gas consumption especially na ang dati kong ride e 1.8L na Revo hehehehe
wala akong masabi sa looks and bilis ng vios, ok talaga. di ko na kinuha sa casa yung libreng tint and matting, nagpagawa na lang ako sa labas na medyo high-end and nagpainstall na rin ako ng alarm with keyless entry. price from toyota makati is P538,000 for the 1.3L variant
ayaw ko lang nga talaga ng busina pero I can live with it, kapag may extra na saka na lang papalitan.
doon sa mga naka 5/10 thousand kms na, ano na fuel consumption nyo?

[enteng]

mga sir i was suppose to buy a vios kaya lang change my mind into Crosswind kasi sabi ng friend ko mas matipid pa rin daw ang diesel.Is it true?

[bender]

Sorry but you shouldn't use mileage as a reason to compare cars in different classes. The Vios is a subcompact car with excellent mileage for its class of which other cars are: the City/Jazz. The Crosswind is an AUV of which its competitors are: The Revo, Innova and Adventure. The Crosswind with a bigger engine will consume more gas for the same distance and speed as a smaller car like the vios. Also, the high mileage figures can only be applicable through the Expressways where in you can travel in high speeds. In stop and go traffic situations in the city, Subcompact cars would use less fuel.
Also, the crosswind has build problems. Search for the thread where they are discussed in detail.

mura lang pala makabili nga ng dalawa pag nanalo sa lotto

Mura talaga. Yung ahente ko hinamon ako itrade-in owner ko para daw makabili ako vios. Ayaw ko nga, kahit pa madami freebies. Bakit pwede ba lagyan ng kabayo sa hood ang vios? Ganda yata ng kabayo sa hood, tapos may mahahabang antenna... tapos stainless pa... tapos...

[paulopel]

Mga tol tanong ko lang kung ano exact 0-100 ng Vios or City? Matipid naman ba sa gas consumption ung dalawa? thanks, Dasal nga pla kayo para kay Popeü

[squala]

A group tested the consumption of a Vios 1.3, and found it to be significantly better than the carb 2E of former Corolla XLs and XEs, which is actually economical already. Another source stated that the 1.5 consumes even less than the 1.3 because of better power-weight ratio.

Anyway, these findings are not 100% reliable, but yes, a fuel-injected engine with variable valve timing should really be more efficient than a carb version with the same displacement.

1.5 1NZ-FE on echo verso 180km top speed.

What more on a Vios with low drag coefficient/
