It was pretty easy to drive and maneuver in small roads and parking lots. Gas consumption is reasonable, 12-14 kms to a gallon. Plus the new Vios does really look like its bigger brother, the Altis but much economical to maintain. I've got the newer version right after it was launch that is why I'm really proud of having it. I'm pretty sure that this car would be with me for a long time.
Though this car is generally ok as what it was intended to be, an economy sedan, people who are used to high-end shouldn't expect BMW or Mercedes quality in such a car. The Vios serves its purpose well. There maybe a few bugs such as grating transmission, the big blind spots in the A pillars, the bumpy ride and the overeacting rev limiter but it is economical getting me a max of 18 km/liter of gas and is fast and nimble on the road. I would consider buying another one or maybe its mechanical twin, the 2007 Yaris sedan
Most of the problems of the Vios seem to be the electrical components which were supplied locally in Thailand.... Go figure....
