Chevrolet Aveo vs Toyota Vios
1: Price
Aveo 1.4 Manual roughly 42900-43900, Toyota Vios 1.5E manual
is 45900 now.
Aveo is 2k-3K lower than Vios 1.5E Manual.
But from the OMV, Aveo is 2K less, so the total price
should be 5K less than Vios, now only 2K different, Aveo
dealers markup looks too high.
In my personal feeling, Aveo's list prices are negotiable,
and Vios sounds not negotiable, can only get some useless
freebies, am I right? If negotiable, how much can I cut, my budget is
very tight, that's why I consider Aveo too, but now look at
Aveo list price, not attractive compare with Vios
Toyota Vios cost

Aveo 1.4L MT cost

2: Fuel consumption.
If 50% city, 50% highway, I expect Aveo to be 11Km/L,
and Toyota maybe 13.5KM/L? so the gap is 2.5L, in my usage
pattern, it will be 1200KM/mth, so every month is
12X2.5X1.8=54 10 years would be S$6480, wah!
3: Interior
Aveo looks spacious, better than Toyota.
4: External, Vios looks better. my personal feeling.
5: Delivery. Aveo sounds can deliver it in 2-3 weeks,
Toyota always no stock, need to wait 2 months? I just visit
their showroom.
6: Safety
Vios all wheels are disk brake, Aveo's rear wheel is
drum brake.
Aveo has anti theft alarm system, remote boot control,
vios don't have.
This is quite useful if frequently travel to other countries,
but in Singapore, maybe not bee too useful.
7: Engine quality, sounds like Vios is better than Aveo?
I learn from forums that some Aveo sedan engine got problem in the
first 1000km, any such sad stories about Vios?
8: Parts
Aveo parts are not easy to source, Toyota Vios parts is quite
easy to find a cheap deal, am I right? I just guess, also heard
there is a shop called Song Yi selling Aveo parts quite cheap?
9: Others, Aveo made in Korean, Vios made in Thai, not much different...
Please correct me if anything wrong, I need to make a final decision in this 1-2 weeks. -

If u previously driving conti car i think avoe is suitable for u, cos aveo's body and layout all are all continental style meaning signal on the left wiper on the right. But only engine is from korean.
If u want less fuel economy get VIOS, but VIOS inside not very spacious. behind dont try 3 adults, sure feel the cramp but overall a good car la. japan car is always good. -
ONLY engine is from korea?? where did u hear that piece of info which deluded u???Originally posted by kardealer:If u previously driving conti car i think avoe is suitable for u, cos aveo's body and layout all are all continental style meaning signal on the left wiper on the right.

Take vios but do note that its rear seats are pretty cramp.
6: Safety
Vios all wheels are disk brake, Aveo's rear wheel is
drum brake.
Btw, 4 disk brake is nice to have for normal 1.5L and 1.6L cars. 2 disk and 2 drum brake is good enough to do the job. -
Just booked my ride in last Sat afternoon, at BM ubi showroom.
The showroom is very crowd, because all the SEs calling their perspective customers, telling them the BM prices will go up by Monday.
When I come there at midnoon, my SE is handling another client, I had to wait half an hour until she complete that deal, then when I'm filling the form, she's dispeared! Maybe go to meet another customer, secure another deal in that 20 mins.
I guess she earn more than $1500 in 2 hours, happy and busy, did not see she eat lunch!
I booked a 1.5E AT, $45988, Min 25,000 loan for 2 years.
She give me $300 cash rebate, But I want V-cool, She told me in the market V-cool is S$500-600, so I had to topup $100 for V-cool.
is it a fair deal? -

Ask her to give you free lah. Heard BM hardly give freebies. May be their business too good already. So you want come, don't want don't come.

But then, the amount of freebies are usually linked to the amount of loan and the loan period.
Mine was given free but not v-cool though.
