Need advice: All Base AT Model VIOS VS KIA STONIC VS ACCENT VS MG5

[Sportyboy27]

Hi guys, I need help it's my first time to buy a bnew car from my own pocket. So for daily drive lang siya around the metro. Maybe some province driving like Batangas or somewhere North for vacation. Mostly me or 2 people lang. Max is 4. I'm not a tall person around 5'6 former runner (varsity player) but I'm big on the upper body so Icoconsider ko din yung space sa driving position. So those 4 are on my list but I'm open for suggestion. Hopefully you can share some insight on this one guys. Thank you so much.

diesel accent would be on top of my list, if I didn't have a car now hehe
gas variant? *thumbs down*

sabi nung friend ko medyo bitin daw yung MG5 sa overtake. Kinocompare niya kasi dun sa FD2 ko haha. Seems sufficient naman for City driving. Ganda pa ng interior/exterior tsaka electronics.

I'm not a fan po of diesel accent. MG5 is really good looking. I guess because of the 1.5 engine kaya medyo bitin. Coming from a FD2 medyo malaki nga diff nun. Well should I just play safe sa Vios?

any particular reason why youre not considering the diesel accent? nagtaka lang ako since kinoconsider mo yung gas na accent. The crdi is torquey, masaya yung hatak niya. Tipid pa sa krudo.

Although I am wary of PMS so if ako, mas kunin ko Vios wala pa ako tiwala sa Hyundai Philippines at Kia haha

I know multiple owners of Hyundai Diesel na may bad experiences and mahirap daw I maintain compared sa gas.

agree, maganda yung all-new honda city..

pero sa choices, i will go kia stonic.. ang isang maganda sa kia eh kahit iba ibang models, usually isang platform lang yan, so parts are almost the same.. tapos may hyundai pa na same parts din..

Hindi po practical for me yung Honda parang ang expensive nya masyado.

If you’re coming from a Civic FD, you’ll be disappointed with most of the subcompact cars in terms of performance.
