With so many cars that offer automated-this and power-operated-that, screens and sensors aplenty, and knobs and buttons galore, we often overlook the simple, adequately-equipped vehicles.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
In the local market, what are some of the cars that go below P700,000?
Among the cars that retail below P700,000 are the Toyota Wigo and Vios, Suzuki S-Presso and APV, Honda Brio, Chery Tiggo 2, and MG 5.What do these cars offer?
Most of these models offer equipment like smartphone-mirroring-compatible infotainment, and safety kit such as reversing sensors.After all, at their very essence, a car's purpose is to bring us from point A to point B — and vehicles that retail for below P700,000, in particular, are very much fit for that purpose.
If you're shopping at this price range, we think the choices in this selection are worth every peso, as they offer all the performance and features you'll ever need.
So with that said, below are the cars we deem as the best sub-P700,000 cars on sale today.
Toyota Wigo (from P568,000) and Vios (from P681,000)
No surprises here, that a carmaker as big as Toyota has covered almost all segments and consumer budgets. What comes as a pleasant surprise, however, is how many features you get with the baby Toyota, the Wigo.
The mid-range Wigo G variant comes with push-button start and aircon controls, Android Auto-compatible infotainment, and a reversing camera and parking sensors. The base Wigo E — which even retails for just above P500,000 — is equipped with touchscreen infotainment and parking sensors.
Meanwhile, the Vios in entry-level Base trim matches the Wigo in price. Keep in mind, though, that while the subcompact sedan offers more trunk space over the mini hatchback, the former offers less equipment.
Suzuki S-Presso (from P523,000) and APV (from P651,000)
Thanks to those angular, SUV-inspired looks, the Suzuki S-Presso brings a cheeky character to the mini hatchback class.
But this Suzuki offers more than personality, as it also brings to the table tech such as keyless entry, power front windows, and a touchscreen infotainment with Bluetooth connectivity. The reversing sensors and Isofix child seat mounts make the S-Presso a small yet safe car.
On the other hand, those seeking a larger family car can take a look at the APV. The APV in entry-level GA spec can seat eight, thanks to its third row. If you don't mind having a rather aging model, this "All-Purpose Vehicle" seems well worth considering.
Honda Brio (from P601,000)
Honda is famous for making excellent hatchbacks, so the carmaker is proud to have the Civic Type R, City Hatchback, and the Brio in its lineup.
The Brio aims to offer Honda quality in a mini hatchback package. In mid-spec V form, the Brio also brings touchscreen infotainment and push-button aircon controls.
All Brio variants share a 1.2-liter i-VTEC engine that generates 89hp and 110Nm of torque, which is mated to a continuously variable transmission. A five-speed manual is exclusive to the entry-level Brio S.
Chery Tiggo 2 (from P695,000)
As the Chinese Chery brand covers every consumer budget and taste, it offers crossovers in various sizes. The Tiggo 2 is the brand's subcompact crossover.
The Tiggo 2 is equipped with a touchscreen infotainment with video player and smartphone mirroring. Other comfort and convenience features include an intelligent remote key, tailgate remote function, and multi-function steering wheel controls.
Under the Tiggo 2’s hood is a 1.5-liter engine, which delivers 106hp and 135Nm of torque and can be mated to a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission.
MG 5 (from P659,000)
The 5 subcompact sedan isn't to be outdone by MG's popular crossovers.
Even in its MT Core variant, the 5 offers the usual touchscreen infotainment and reversing sensors, as well as a trunk that's said to measure unusually more spacious than the subcompact standard.
All versions of the 5 are powered by a 1.5-liter engine, with the 5 Core mating to this mill a five-speed manual transmission.
