CAR COMPARISON: 2019 Toyota Vios vs. 2018 Honda City
The Toyota Vios and Honda City are two of the most popular compact sedans in the country today. Mention one in a discussion and the name of the other is inevitably dropped in the conversation–that’s how much people love to compare these two cars. Of course, every car enthusiast worth his/her salt knows that the Vios has been the country’s best selling car for 15 years in a row, but massive sales numbers doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best option for everybody. Thus, we finally arrive at the heart of the matter: choosing the right subcompact car that suits your personal considerations, needs, and budget. With the release of the all-new Vios recently, it’s worth revisiting how the two cars compare.
