Planning to buy a compact car. Need some suggestions.

[bim27142]

compact cars include corolla/altis, civic, lancer, sentra etc. what you are aiming for are sub-compact sedans or hatches. if hatches lang storyaan, i'd go for a 2nd gen jazz or the one in 08-12 man tingali na hehe a used one is good enough if it is well maintained. one reason is the interior space another is it's the hatch with the badge. among jap hatches it is the most spacious. if hadlok ka sa maintenance you can try the yaris. it is literally a vios in hatchback. maintenance is considered cheap, well, it is supposed to be cheap because it's a toyota.

if sub-compact sedans pd, nothing beats the vios. economy, maintenance/services, spare parts, etc. even comfortability is there. space is great too. you can never go wrong with it kana if you view your car as an appliance not your baby. if you want a car and you're planning to treat it like a baby, vw golf is the answer hehe imo gyud ni baby2-hon kay mahal kaayo ang srp, mahal pa ang mga piyesa. hehehe

sakto, dili diay na "compact cars" TS , mini/smart car i think diay na or a-segment cars. b-segment mga vios, city, etc... c-segment mga corolla, civic, etc...

by the way, ang mga latest nga vios/city, they are not that "fuel efficient"... naa ra sa 1:8 or 1:9 city driving... mo naog gani kuno og 1:7 usahay (matic na ha)... my suspect is that nanagko ang ilang mga kaha but the engines are still the same thus more work and FC for the engines.

pero in the long run sad boss, like if you plan to keep the car for 10 years or so, economy gihapon ang vios kay di na kahinanglan ug casa after sa warranty hehe pwede ra sa mga kilid2 nga talyer kay maski i blindfold pa kaya na kaayo nila ang vios ayohon. ehehe kuwang nlng asta mga pharmacy mamaligya na ug parts sa vios

Ok ra baya jud ang picanto TS. Gaan ra jud kaayo siya dad-on. But sakto jud ila gipang ingon. Dont rush, ipang test drive sa na imong mga choices. Diha na decide right after kung unsa jud imo ganahan.

like earlier suggested, test drive mo lahat ng options mo. Get a feel on saan ka pinaka comfortable then study their respective specs.
When i was in the market for a sub-compact/hatchback car, that's what i did po. Best sana talaga sa hatchbacks ang Jazz pero dili kaya ng budget hehehe.

Picanto and Eon are lookers IMO but Eon has a weaker engine (0.8L compared to 1.0/1.2L sa Picanto, Celerio or Wigo). Among your choices, Celerio has the best fuel economy even if AT.
I chose a Picanto MT cause i liked it's looks/feel when i did a test drive, never considered yung Wigo, just didn't like the looks (that's just me po).
