Is Vios a good car?

[SuperPatatas]

Greetings po mga Tsikoters.

Balak ko po bumili ng brand new na Vios this coming week. Ok po ba ang Toyota Vios na 1.3J M/T? Gagamitin ko lang naman po eto pampasok sa trabaho and minsan sa paguwi sa probinsya.

Pakishare naman po ang mga experiences niyo at observation sa car na to.

1. Riding comfort
2. Durability
3. Fuel Consumption
4. Maintenance
5. Performance sa mga long trips
6. Appearance/Looks

Ano po ang maibibigay niyo na good qualities ng car na eto? Bad qualities na rin po. Eto lang kasi ang kaya ng budget ko and hindi ko na kaya lumagpas ng 600k.

Okay before dumating ang Fiesta/Accent FBs dito

Congrats! first since you made a good choice;
The Vios has been in the Philippine market for 8 years now and it has proven it worth quite well.

Ride Comfort is Good passengers won't complain
Durability lots of Vios Taxis running around with 100K ODO mileage
Fuel Consumption 1.3L 2NZFE gives around 21 km/L (15-18 km/L realistically)
Maintenance Cheap as they go, just don't get ripped off by Evil Service Advisors
Performance it could reach 200KPH

with the Manual
Appearance/looks either way it looks USDM and JDM so you can easily make it look better with Cosmetic Modz

Vios owner here and no regrets at all. As I plan to upgrade to a compact car next yr, di ko parin bibitawan vios ko. Absolutely no complaints abt the vios.
Ride quality is ok. It is a subcompact but it rides well and is roomy
Durabilitywise, my car is more then 2 yrs old and no problem at all.
Fuel consumption- very economical. 11-13 ltrs/km city driving
Maintenance - proper pms lang siguradong di sasakit ulo mo
Long trips - it is a subcompact but comfortable naman. Of course not the same level as an altis or civic.
Appearance - it may not be the best looking car right now but it doesnt look outdated. Lalo na pag mapa mags mo sya ok naman.

For ur budget the vios I think is the best bang for the buck subcompact right now. Dont mind all those taxi comments abt it. The fact that its being used as taxis means na the car is hassle free.

1. not so great, medyo matagtag, as expected
2. not sure
3. yung sa friend ko na med rep, around 17km/l highway mostly
4. not sure
5. ok naman, can catch up if your in a hurry
6. i dont like it that much. but for the 600k price... who cares.

in conclusion, i think is a good first car choice.

It's a very basic car. Can get you from point A to point B with no problems.

Agree. My wife and I recently joined tsikot forums to get feedback on buying our first SUV. And somehow after reading most threads, medjo dominated nga ng Hyundai forumers. At times, I like their passion kasi ganun din ako dati during the 90s. Lalo na when the Civics came out. So iniintindi ko na lang. Pero, okay na nga ba ang mga Hyundai? or its yet to be tested? I bought a Fortuner last december and I really enjoy driving it. This time I was planning to get a Vios pero dahil sa maganda din ang itsura ng Accent, parang yun na ang 1st option ko. Just recently though, I read the Engine Knock thread ng Accent and I know the Vios will not have that. Dami kayang medrep at taxi na Vios. So, in your honest non-fanboy opinion, would an Accent or a Hyundai car be as reliable and a durable as a Toyota/Vios? Hanggang ngayon may mga 89 na corolla pa sa daan na maayos pa manakbo.

I drive a vios! Yup its a good car!
1. Riding comfort: masmatagtag pa yung kia sportage kesa sa vios. Try riding a vios taxi so you can experience the ride. Its actually comfortable, considering most of the taxi drivers nakakahilo magdrive.
2. Durability: Sa pag-maintain and pagalaga na yun ng car. The vios I drive is 4 years old already, its still good as new.
3. Fuel Consumption: magmanual ka para matipid
4. maintenance: Im a girl so I don't really know much, but I go to good year servitek every once in a while to have my cars checked.
5. performance at long drives: Torque is good. sarap idrive sa long drive
6. appearance: I honestly would go for a camry or an altis, but its too expensive and the gas consumption is high. I heard the new model of the vios is good

Pag nakabili na po kayo ng car, pacarwash po kayo samin! :p

he-he. papano di maayos ang panakbo niyan, e sinalpakan ng hi-horse ng 4AGE BT ang makina. Kahit ako sa 4AFE big body ko tumatakbo ng 170 sa NLEX (before ma improve ang NLEX so la [a Radar detection)inovertake-an ng 89 small body.
bottom line is: It's a toyota. ang kasabihan ng iba, kahit sa botika makabili ka ng piyesa. Sabi ng mga taxi drivers, matibay ang pang ilalim. Vios is a common entry car, but a bit better than a box with 4 wheels. so I'd say, go for it!
