Verdict

The Toyota Vios NGC102 is the more complete new-generation buy: its 2,620 mm wheelbase is 70 mm longer, it uses 5.2 L/100 km against 5.8, and it brings pre-collision braking, steering correction and a 3D panoramic monitor. The RM15,977 gap over the Toyota Vios NSP151 Facelift 2 is substantial, though. The older car still has 105 hp and 140 Nm, a larger 506-litre boot, automatic climate control and a seventh airbag. For a Malaysian buyer watching the cheque, the NSP151 remains the sharper used-car case; the NGC102 earns its money through safety tech and day-to-day equipment.

NGC102
