hi guys.. i'm helping my friend who is planning to buy her first car. she will use it almost everyday.. weekdays (going to work) while on the weekends going for a long (highway) drive with her family or friends (not all the time naman ). her budget is between 800K-900K. based on this, these are the 3 cars that she's now considering.

1) Hyundai Accent Hatch E A/T (mid trim) - she likes this car because aside from being a dsl engine (low FC) and the engine power it brings, according to her, she always wanted to have a hatch for a car and its exterior is maporma din naman. but we notice that for its price, may lack of features sya specifically sa safety, which is important to her kasi she's not an experience driver pa plus her family will use this car din.

2) Honda City VX - among the 3 choices, the city's interior is her favorite plus ok din ang engine power and the rear seat is very spacious which is great for long drives with her family or friends this is almost a perfect car for her BUT its not a hatch. that's why she's having a second thoughts. i've already suggested her to check the Jazz since its the hatch version of the City but unfortunately she doesn't like the exterior of jazz. hehehe

3) Toyota Yaris 1.5 - she likes the exterior (hatch kasi siguro.. haha) interior is ok lang. its safety features are better than the accent. this is the only car na di pa namin na test drive so we don't have any idea how it rides. kamusta pala ang FC nito, di pa ako nakakabasa ng review kaya no idea.


i know we all have different preferences but since all of you here in tsikot are more knowledgeable about cars, i would like to ask your opinions and suggestions about the 3 choices based on the information i shared.

thank you in advance for the help.
