Hyundai Accent GL or Toyota Vios J?

[jinet]

Would like to ask your advise on which one to purchase.
To be used for city driving (home-office) use only. The Accent looks really great however Vuios seems more reliable based on feedback from friends.

try mo din ang avanza same engine with vios but with bigger body for extra cargo & passenger .. mataas ng konti sa vios advantage sa baha ...

[RamboMapua]

vios = performance

accent = looks

Magkaiba ang engine ng Vios sa Avanza.

Avanza uses 3SZ-VE and K3-VE for their 1.5 and 1.3 engines respectively while Vios uses 1NZFE and 2NZFE for their 1.5 and 1.3 engines.

The Avanza is a rebadged Daihatsu Xenia.

Between the 2 sedans. I'd choose the Vios J Variant. Maintenance wise and Reliability wise

The Vios will obviously seem to be more reliable since it's a model that's been around for a while now. Consider as well that the Philippines has always had a Toyota bias.

The Accent just came out so how the heck can someone say if it's reliable or not? I hope everyone realizes that this car has a looooong warranty to go with the purchase, as opposed to the Vios.

As for the Avanza, it has the ugliest interior I have seen of all the models in its price range and it handles terribly. I don't see the point in getting this car unless for fleet use.

well it is true na bago pa lang accent sa pinas, but because of the 5yr warranty compared to 3 yr warranty vios offers, for me ha, is good enough. It just means that under same circumstances, accent is designed to last minimum of 5yrs unlike vios na 3yrs lang.

Not to mention na big taxi companies nowadays choose accent.

Dyan naman dumami pyesa ng toyota sa pinas e. kaya hindi ako mabibigla na mag umapaw ng pyesa ng hyundai dito sa pinas in a year or two. sa mge, rne, sturdy pa lang ilang libong units ang accent nila.

In time, mawawala ang lone advantage ng toyota w/c is parts availability.

vios maintenance, reliability, parts (magsawa ka! ) ...

yung accent mawawala din ang hype sa looks dahil bago2x pa lang yan. sa pagkakaalam ko wala nang diesel variant yung accent na bago.. sayang..

[bluspirit]

I go for vios na lang.. hindi pa naman ganon ka tested and hyundai sito sa phil. eh

Thanks for the suggestions!

Actually mas inclined nga ako to get the Vios since it is more practical and reliable though sobrang dami na niya sa daan and medyo weird na nasa gitna yung instrument panel. My husband and I really like how the Accent looks, maporma talaga and mas madimng choices sa colors. kaso nga lang, based on research ang cons: engine knocking, malambot na suspension, and expensive maintenance at supposed lower resale value since we are planning to resell the car in 5 years time.

Baka nga Vios na lang.
