I am not that good in car. I am doing comparison between honda city, kia forte n ford fiesta.

Based on ur 3 choice, I hv ruled out vios as my friend who used to work for toyota says city is better than vios due to the city engine is newer. Vios hv some unsolved problem like the belting. I might be wrong though, still learning. Latio hatchback is nicer but is more expensive than city. Nissan hc the lower resale value than city n vios but if u like a car, I don't think resale value is a problem as u will want to drive long term.

Here's my topic for your reference. smile.gif

no need to pay for test drive. Just hv to call n make appointment or some can just walk in and arrange. I think call is better to ensure u can test the car u want maybe on the same day? smile.gif just test out the 3 u r considering. Just as long u feel comfortable with it u should go for the car. smile.gif

I had the same issue and I ended up with the Latio sports after some homework. But the Latio sports has to have the bodykit with the large spoiler, or the car looks weird.

I didn't notice any big gaps between the 3 in terms of FC, so that was good enough for me. FC largely depends on your driving style, and mine usually is to go very very fast.

The main difference is in terms of a sedan, the City beats the Vios until you take price into account. The Latio is a hatchback, so it loses out in terms of bootspace but in terms of interior space, it claws some back.

All in all, when you look at all 3 cars, which one catches your eye most? Thats probably the one you'll end up buying.

i think latio has the most comfortable and nice interior. unless u get vios trd(which i think overpriced)..the trd interior look a bit nicer than vios J. ahh if u got budget, go for latio sport. (i'm biased towards hatch car..hehehe rclxms.gif )

Haha last time i used to be in the same condition like u but after so many choices like Vios TRD, City Espec , Suzuki SX4 hatchback , Latio sport and forte , i still go for City. Well i think overall the 3cars u're comparing now is roughly the same. Go test drive those 3cars that u've sorted out and i'd bet u will know which is your fav...

if u look for FC, no doubt go for Vios
if u look for stunning outlook and new gadgets, no doubt go for NHC
if u look for comfortable and quiet cabin, no doubt go for Latio

so which u look for?

I dispute the statement that the Vios is tops in the FC department. We did tests on all 3 cars and the results say otherwise.

I like the looks of the City best and the paddle shifters on the City still drives me towards that car.

Maybe its because I have a Vios and I know all the small little problems and issues that come with it tongue.gif
