Vitz or Yaris (hatchback)

[Car buyer]

Please advice me I the Vitz 2017 or Yaris 2017 is better ? 

Performance? 

Second hand market? 

TIA

* I hope you are not referring to the Auris 

I think its the same car  (hatch) but Yaris for the Euro (UK) and Vitz being for Jap domestic. Do a tally on the frame number. If it matches technically the same car with minute kit differences. 

Yaris , since it's for UK, you might get more bells & whistles for the same amount. On build & ride quality i dont think am an expert enough to comment. 

If it's the same engine then unless the ECU mapping is different i doubt there will be a significant performance change between the two

Second hand market might be a bit tricky as the Sri Lankan market is not yet used to a "Yaris"  hatch back. identical to what goes between Shogun & Montero in SL. So, you may not sell it as easy compared to a JDM vitz. But come-on this Sri Lankan market barely has logic for second hand prices

By Yaris, if you are referring to the European/Australian/South African/a few other markets Yaris then it is the same car as the Japanese Vitz with configuration/spec differences to meet each market.  Some markets have more accessories/features than the Japanese Vitz and some have less than the Japanese Vitz. The grades are different too.

By Yaris, if you are referring to the South East Asian Yaris, then it is a totally different car from the Vitz. That particular Yaris is a hatchback variant of the P150 series Vios (which in some markets go as the Yaris sedan).
