Hunting high and low: Comparing the top and base variants of the Toyota Vios

With its undeniable popular appeal, the Toyota Vios continues to be Toyota Motor Philippines’ top-selling sedan while staying true to its commitment to "level up every drive."

Ever since it debuted in the country in 2003 via Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP), the model has sold close to 300,000 units to date. Just last year, it represented 25% of all passenger cars sold in the country. All told, the Toyota Vios owns more than 43% of the segment, making it the undisputed king of sedans.

Whether you're planning a family vacation or going on a spontaneous (and safe) road trip with COVID-19-tested friends, there will surely be enough room for all. This five-seater sedan possesses an upgraded polished exterior look that will allow you to travel in style. It comes with multi-information display for an easier and more convenient drive. All Vios models are installed with state-of-the-art safety technology including vehicle stability and hill-start assist control while the latest variants are equipped with seven airbags which guarantee superior safety.

The Vios has been consistently popular and in-demand in the Philippine market with its convenient features, most especially its fuel efficiency and high performance. With its wide range of variants, there is certainly a perfect Vios for every budget. Let’s take a look at what these best-selling variants have to offer by comparing the most expensive and most affordable variants. Where is your budget closer to? Do you think the premium is worth it?
