A few days ago, there were fans in the background private message me, budget more than 80,000, want to buy a fuel-saving and worry-free car to travel, what suggestions? I recommend him to take a look at Toyota Vios. The reason why I recommend this car is because the first car in my own life is Toyota Vios, which was started in September 2015 in the 2014 1.5L auto-perfect version, when it landed less than 90,000, that car I drove for 7 years, until March this year to change the car to sell, sold 48,500, the retention rate is really quite high.
The reason why I want to sell the car, not because there is anything wrong with the car, on the contrary, its quality is too skinny, 7 years in addition to normal maintenance, I myself have only changed four tires, the original Bridgestone tire cracked in the third year, I changed four horse brands, in addition to no problems, as a less than 100,000 scooters, such a quality can be said to be very qualified.
And let me talk about my use of it, in addition to the leather resistance, this car also has the following advantages, one is that the space is not small, its wheelbase is only 2550mm, belongs to the A0 class small car, but the rear space can be comparable to some compact cars, and the middle floor is almost flat, so there is no pressure to ride, the trunk width, depth is enough. The second is fuel saving, my car is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, matching the 4AT gearbox, the fuel consumption of 100 kilometers in the summer is more than 6L, and in the winter, due to being in the northern city, the temperature is cold, and the fuel consumption will increase to more than 7L. The third is that the maintenance is cheap, buy your own oil three filters outside maintenance, once it is more than 300, the cost of the car is very low.
After talking about the advantages and then talk about the disadvantages, first of all, the sound insulation is poor, the tire noise is obvious after the speed exceeds 30km/h, and then a little faster wind noise will follow, followed by the chassis filter effect is not good, encounter potholes or speed belts inside the car will be very bumpy, there is no sense of high-grade, and then there is a low configuration, my car In addition to the basic functions of air conditioning, radio, other configurations are not, including ESP body stability system, completely a simple means of transportation, and finally the power is relatively weak, The initial acceleration is good, the first foot of the throttle feels very strong, the traffic lights can basically be the first to rush out, but the middle and rear sections are really collapsed, after all, the engine displacement and horsepower are placed there, no matter how to step on it, it is just a dry roar.
In fact, for these shortcomings of Vios I can accept, after all, its level and price is like this, it is impossible to ask for too much, the reason for my change of car is that there is a baby at home, The loading capacity of Vios is difficult to be competent, like a stroller, it is difficult to put into the trunk, so I changed an SUV, but if it is just for commuting, I still recommend this car, the current model uses a CVT gearbox, acceleration is more smooth, before the 4AT gearbox will have a running phenomenon when collecting oil at low speed, And CVT also has a certain improvement in fuel economy, but the acceleration ability may be weaker, of course, this is just my personal guess, because there is no test drive of the new model.
In addition, in terms of configuration, the new Vios has also improved a lot more than before, such as tire pressure monitoring, ESP, engine start and stop, multi-function steering wheel, which have been, the car machine also supports CarLife mobile phone interconnection, in addition to the engine start and stop is more chicken ribs Other configurations are very useful, the new car landing is also 70,000, 80,000. In fact, if on the cost performance, this price point to choose domestic cars will be better, such as Geely Emgrand, Changan Yidong, MG5, etc., but Toyota is Toyota, may be in the first three years of just buying a car everyone can not distinguish between high and low, but if you want to open a decade and eight years, then Toyota's stability is absolutely unquestionable, even if you want to sell the car in the later stage, it will be easy to sell, this point of domestic cars is indeed not comparable, support domestic goods is not wrong, but also to face the gap, so as to really make progress.
