There is always bound for argument when Honda comes into the picture.

Nobody says Korean makes not reliable anymore. Their reliability have been proven close to Toyota and Mazda. See any Forte owners complaining? None, spare parts also plenty and cheap. My Forte is still running strong in 1 piece. Instead, Honta turns out to have poor reliability need to fix so many things. Can't even take 10,000km service interval.

Cerato KX is C-segment. City V spec is B-segment. Like this, City already lost most of the points here.

Interior space Cerato
Acceleration & speed Cerato
Reliability and maintenance Cerato
Build quality Cerato
Spare parts price & availability Cerato
Safety rating Cerato

The only thing City can win is idling FC. Apart from that, there's nothing to shout, even though the KX doesn't have VSC, the poor build quality City has nothing to put up against. NASA back to old trick of using cheap price to steal customers again.

Acceleration & speed Cerato a 1.6 C-segment vs 1.5l B-segment, but the 1.6 C-segment wins.....mmmkay
Reliability and maintenance Cerato Really? by how much?
Spare parts price & availability Cerato That's right it's easier to get KIA parts than Honda parts  rolleyes.gif
Safety rating Cerato Honda City V-spec 6 airbags + VSA, Cerato KX??....

Well. By the way talking about acceleration and speed I don't think cerato has the advantages.. Test drove city and cerato.. I prefer acceleration for city. Speed never really pedal to the Max. So I cant comment..

And why is that reliability and maintenance is Cerato??? Same goes to parts availability.. Is that really so.. Cerato??

I would think yes. For built quality.. But not sure in the long run.. That's for Cerato

Cheers

Sorry, but this is a silly way to pick a car. A world best-selling car does not necessarily means you will have the same dealership and aftersales support locally.

Ford Focus and Fiesta are one of the best selling cars in the world, but look at the dealer and aftersales network in Malaysia. By comparison, Honda and Toyota's aftersales support are way more superior and convenient compared to contis and kimchis.

Ya..something like tat...but i won't buy Cerato..B segment cars like Vios & City are designed to be cheap..so the quality & design will be so so only (Especially Vios, the designer totally no passion in design it)..they are the lowest part of my list if I want to buy a new car..I will go for C & D segment cars only..any brands will do..as long is good specs, performance, design to my taste...But this dude deciding for Cerato or City...I will say Cerato..

getting a cerato KX with rubbish spec is disrespecting the car itself. Get a proper spec Cerato if you are keen on Cerato. If stupid ppl keep supporting KX, then Naza will become another UMW coming out with stripped down spec cars since its selling over here. By then dont complaint why less airbags or safety features or so.

If I were TS. City would be a preferred choice compare to Cerato.. But if Cerato 2.0 then I would go for that.. 1.6 or KX or stripped down version Cerato is a no no..
