Honda Fit Or The Vios

[jehan80]

Hey,

Just wondering what you guys think the better deal would be? Since they are in a similar price range.

[The Don]

The easier car to live with would be the Vios since its become quite popular

that does not necessarily mean its the better car or the better deal

Would depend on your taste on if you want a hatchback or a sedan.

I belive Fuzzo had the same problem and went for the sedan.

the city/fit is more spacious than the vios but i couldn't get past the looks of the fit...

I had the same delima as well, went for the vios. Prefer a sedan personally. Guess it boils down to what you value more in a car and how the car fits into your personal style.

liked the looks of the VIOS but in regard to leg space...ERRRR!

As from the comments of some members, the fit aria is supposed to do better on fuel.

oh, i assume your reffering to the Fit (4 dr hatch) rather than the fit aria...

Then again from my experience and from what some users have mentioned in this forum, parts for the Vios are not as freely available, other than the small service level stuff like stock filters. Toyota has to place an order to Japan and it goes through a long process before ending up in Thailand. In the end there is a long delay and a higher price for the parts. I wonder how the Honda is when it comes to the parts question? Speaking to someone from a taxi service; they did mention that they have a Vios and a Fit in the fleet. As the vehicles get used often the Fit seems to have a better build quality with fewer rattling sounds and does better on fuel like already mentioned here by some. Both have Auto Tranny.

WELL FUZZO IS THE VIOS XPERT..WHT DO YA SAY MATE ABT THE VVTI N THE PERFORMANCE...N FUEL...

The biggest problem with VIOS is, it is not a spacious car, some people like it because its exterior look . Fit is bit more spacious and better fuel economy car. I think it will be a good idea to look for a full size sedan than compact sedan or hatch back.

But how is the resell market for Honda Aria? I have heard that 1500cc Auto CVT model gives many troubles and I think 1500 normal automatic models are not available.
