This is what you think and unfortunately is not what other think....
Toyota has been known for its reliabililty and this has been built up over the years, so not easy to tarnish this reputation even if they shift their production to thailand. Simply said, Vios is more like riding on the benefits on a proven product.
Madza and Suzuki is capitalising on that their cars are made in Japan as a selling point to command a higher price (to match toyota) than thai-made vios but one should not generalise that made in japan cars are better, i mean car made in thailand can be just as good.
Apart from the equipments list (Alloys rims, all round disc brakes, fog lights as standard), the VVT-i technology also plays an important part in engine refinement, responsiveness and fuel consumption.
Talk to a Vios owner / driver, you know what I mean
