2003 Toyota VIOS Sports Edition review from Singapore
"A good bargain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong so far.
General comments?
The car is a dollar for value car. So far the car is fuel efficienct. It runs about 600km on a full tank.
The sports edition comes with front & rear fog lamps. Useful for long distance trips up to KL.
Cornering at high speed is stable with no over-steering. Although it is a sports edition, it does not perform like one as it has a 1.5L engine with a rather slow pick up from zero acceleration. Once it has accelerated, it is pretty stable up to 125km/h.
Although it is not as spacious as the Toyota Corolla (Altis), it is a good buy for a family unit of 4.
