looks like i go for the city...:mrgreen:, para sa akin, mas durable parts ng honda...and painless ownership, best of all, sobrang futuristic ang design unlike vios.:mrgreen:
City is said to be more spacious and on paper, it seems better because of the 7-speed transmission. It's quite odd why it has 7 ratios; perhaps the first production vehicle to have such number of gears.
Vios 1.5 will come with a 16-valve VVTi engine, as compared to the City with only 8-valves. The Honda has a DSi engine instead of the usual VTEC. It is also used in the Fit/Jazz hatchback, with a promise of good fuel economy.
Which one is better overall? The test drive should decide that! :wink:
the new City has a continuously variable transmission (CVT), effectively an infinite-speed transmission. it actually uses much more than just 7 ratios.
korek!!!! CVTs are infinitely variable.... hence, these "gear ratios" are just settings. I think a 6peed (like the Lancer MX) would suffice. Parang overkill na yung 7speed.
siguro kaya nilagyan ng 7 speed selections ang cvt is to compensate for the weak engine. kasi kung 4 or 5 gears lang ang selections na nilagay nila, siguradong hirap ang engine pag ginamit ng driver ang manual mode (82 hp lang ang 1.3)
di daw lalabas ang 1.5 dito ng city e. ok lang kasi 6 hp lang at parang 10 Nm of torque lang ang difference ng 1.5 sa 1.3. dun na ako sa 1.3
maganda parin kaya pag sangkatutak na ang city sa daan? :?:
assuming 1.5 city will be available here to match engine displacement of toyota vios, which one will you choose...and why?
on the 1.3L segment of both the Vios and City, IMHO the City is the clear winner, more amenities and a new technology on the engine and transmission. now comparing the 1.3L City vs the 1.5 Vios, IMHO the engine of the Vios is its leading edge over the City (obviously), however if Honda brings in the 1.5L variant with a VTEC3 engine now which 1.5L would be best in terms of engine and an overall package? take note that the previous City with a VTEC engine squeezes 115hp. on the competetive side and brand loyalty i guess its up to the consumer to decide. peace
hindi kaya marketing strategy lang ng honda yan?
1.3 lang muna then after a year or two ilabas din nila yung 1.5?
ganyan kasi yung nangyari nung 1997 na ilabas nila
yung city 1.3 lang both LXi and EXi pa yun..pero after a year or two nag
labas sila ng 1.5 EXi din...madalas nga mapagkamalan na
1.5 yung city ko kasi may EXi na badge..

hayy sana ilabas yung 1.5......
market strategy and even "market intelligence".........the analogy is either to keep up with your competitor or be one step ahead of it.
