2021 Toyota Vios G Review - Behind the Wheel

On this episode of Behind the Wheel, we take a look at the 2021 Toyota Vios 1.5 G CVT. Equipped to the teeth and coming in at P1,056,000 for the top of the line G variant, expect a great package from the number one brand in the Philippines, however, just how good is it and will its 7-digit price tag justify its worth? Locally assembled well-equipped, here's a review to one of the most anticipated subcompact sedans in the Philippines today.

i love plain, simple cars. they're less overwhelming to use and you're free from a lot of distractions from those extra techy features in the dashboard

[@brightdaysaheadofUs]

Same

[@Choose1only]

I think there will be a 2021 Honda City RS vs 2021 Toyota Vios G - Comparo video. Right Autodeal? Looking forward to that! That would be another great content!

Proud vios owner here ! 😊

[@venchitobullecer8560]

I own a 2010 Toyota vios 1.5G MT. Last dec. 2017 it registered 21.1kms/liter in one of my travel. I have it recorded in my blackberry. I still use it. Mileage to date is still 105k.

[@jesselogan92]

Malaysian's Vios G and Thailand's Yaris Ativ Sports Premium are the most completed specs Vios in the ASEAN market rn... They got Head Unit with Android Auto and Appe Carplay, Optitron instrument cluster, 360 degrees camera, Toyota Safety Sense (Pre-Collision Warning, Lane Departure Alert), BSM + RCTA, Leatherette seats, rear charging port, front parking sensor.. For Malaysia, they got extra front dashcam on-board..

[@jamiekatesalcedo6301]

I wonder why? Is it because Malaysians have more money to spend than they think Filipinos have?

[@nysmindnancs6899]

Coming from the US on vacation,l borrowed my sisters VIOS and l fell in love with,it’s the right car for the right reason,small,easy to handle,saves on gas too! It’s reliable and won’t leave you hanging!

is it automatic?

The Vios in red color really looks good! Both the Vios and the City are great cars :)

[@spectre4627]

I own the 4th gen aka "Joker". Only changes are the front grill, drl light (now integrated with the headlight and the size of the fog lamps. Everything else is literally the same lol.

[@eg3360]

It may not look much on paper, but I like the higher ground clearance compared to sedans in its category. Well done Toyota.

[@charlesg.8615]

If you want tech and performance tpos hindi nmn masyado gagamitin go for other brands, But if you want a car that will last and sure na di ka padin mapapagasto after 10 years. Eto ang para sayo. Maniwala ka kasi subok ko na. From gen 2, gen 3 and now gen 4. All almost 300,000km each dahil sa type ng trabaho ko. Yung underpower? Yes at low speed gapang tlaga ampanget ng tuning nya halos walang torque. Pro masasanay ka. So pili ka A good car or durable car.

[@christiancalatrava2821]

Sulit. Proven talaga.

[@paull5421]

Yes yan din nasa isip ko noon bat wala siya gaanong tech features sa car. Pero di ako nagsisi na nag vios.. kasi yan mga tech di mo talaga mapapansin if you are driving na. Napajasmoth i drive nya.. Sa akin kasi music sa spotify sa phone ko ok na. Hehe.

[@kenpogi5747]

best comment so far

[@bryant2806]

Na try mo ibang brands? Baka same lang din but a more comfortable ride 😉

[@kobayashiharuno]

on point tong comment na to hehe. yung 2014 Vios 1.3J MT ko nasa 198k kilometers na sa odometer, parang kalabaw e. only minimal maintenance and repairs, not the most comfortable but as long as it drives without any problems, what could go wrong?

@Jebus foxe what do u suggest for a first-time driver? ok ba hyundai tucson diesel AT

[@eduardsondeguzman9421]

IMHO, there's so many lacking here to the point of questioning how this passed as a G variant.

[@anonymousgazelle]

Sounds like an E variant to me.

[@eduardsondeguzman9421]

@@anonymousgazelle Yes. It will pass as an E variant but not G. Definitely not worth 1M.

[@walbertsamuelgo76]

IMO If they at least added Air Vents and center arm rest at the back It would be a solid competitor to RS or even destroy it.

[@ArcherArios22]

@@walbertsamuelgo76 Not even close even if they add that. Look at the headunit, it is the same with the XE variant. Compare the engine of the city and vios. Make vios G for around 800K, then there is a competition.

[@walbertsamuelgo76]

@@ArcherArios22 Well.. I can't say that you're wrong because I totally agree with you. It's just that I based my opinion on Toyota's reliability specially Vios. But if you wanna go technical and not care about future repair/replacements of course I'd pick RS all day.

Honda City RS is 10k cheaper but has more tech such as Apple CarPlay and air vents on the second row. I find it more stylish too than the 2021 Vios. Comparo between the two naman dyan pls hehe

[@johnwick860]

the price of the new 1.5 Honda City is very competitive... though there are feedbacks of bad gas mileage

[@navyblu79]

Selling point? It's a Toyota. Yes other cars have better this and that. But for the long haul, nothing beats Toyota at least here in Ph. Cheaper parts which are almost always available, can be repaired just about anywhere and not to mention, the resale value is always good. I don't own one but if I'll ever buy a new sedan, this will always be in my list.

[@corolla9545]

I would choose Vios XLE CVT it is very good.

[@owenchuarbx]

As of writing this, I'm currently how to drive this car in a driving school. This XP150 is a good first car and a good learner car that's both forgiving and understanding. The pickup can be a bit slow because of below-average torque but still, it's perfect for essential commuting and weekend outings for the young and lower class.

[@lloydkevindeguzman1987]

For others vios is generic; for me, who is strapped for cash, this is the dream car.

[@janreymaligro3507]

Please also do make a review for Corolla Altis the MT variant

[@melvicespolon88]

honest opinion. this new Vios pales in comparison with the Honda City RS when it comes to features and tech inside. But I will praise Toyota by including Disc Brakes at the rear and minimizing NVH inside the cabin, which the GM6 City lacks, and i guess remains on the GN City. Honda, baka naman. 🙏🏼🤷🏻‍♂️

[@PinoyGuitarTutorials]

yeah still drum brakes on rear tires on the city

[@4g63_Everything]

2021 Facelift front bumper looks much better.. Sana may 1.5 na base model.. The 1.3 base variant is enough for me, i don't need that much modern driving assist technology and infotainments.. Mga after 4-6 years madami na much better aftermarket parts for it. Now i appreciate base models kase wala masyado nakakahaniyang baguhin at alisin na pyesa unlike sa Mid/ top off the line variants.

[@markjavier2295]

My family owns a Vios. The Vios is just like the Ginebra team in the PBA: there are many limitations, but many Filipinos still support it (based on Vios sales for many years now) :) Question: I watched several reviews comparing the Vios with Honda City (AutoDeal's Comparo, Top Gear Ph, among others). The reviewers always favor the City, but how come significantly more Filipinos buy the Vios? Another comparison: Caco Tirona and Vince Pornelos favors the Nissan Navara over the Toyota Hilux, but more Filipinos buy the latter over the former. Just wondering...

[@karlangeloarcenas7626]

Because of its engine and popularity I thinkg🙂

[@lancecorgos683]

It can be described for three reasons: 1. Reliablity 2. Durability 3. Available parts everywhere (even online) Also the perfect choice for every rookie drivers who are still learning how to drive. 😎👍 Its very basic, it won't let you down no matter where you go. 🚗

[@pinayinfrance2642]

The reason id simple bro, the vios starting price is 600+k, while the Honda city has a 900+k starting price (almost 1M in fact). So yeah logically more people can afford the vios more easily, with monthly under 20k, while the City is asking more on every financial aspects. It's just a story of affordability, value for the money.

Taxes

[@niwdemodacrem9570]

This is what Toyota brings, higher price but less to offer. Filipinos still patronize Toyota due to the mindset of realibility and easy to maintain.

[@yobskie7752]

its not a mindset, proofs are everywhere (longest mileage before breaking down, low cost on service and parts, resale value is still good you don't feel "luge" ika nga ni caco) you just have to open your eyes and accept the facts LOL And the fact that almost if not all Taxi companies use it says a lot there's your ultimate proof about reliability and durability. A lot of "pa conyo / pa sosyal" na pinoys choose different brands without using there brains but the TRUE billionaires, companies and rich people uses Land Cruisers and Lexus which is a TOYOTA. LMFAO!
