I feel colt plus with mivec engine will give u better driving pleasure and enjoyment. FC shld be abt the same for the 2 models

[Deathsythe]

Well u r not comparing apple to apple.

One is a H/b and the other is a compact sedan.

CC also different. Not to say abt the pricing too.

[Dafansu]

you need a spacious car with foldable seats? if so get colt plus

[Sylvestjane]

i m driving a colt plus

fuel comsumption is about 13.5km/l

ODO abt 900km

due for my first servicing soon

[Ice34_y2k]

they'r so different...hw can u compare them? one is so big...the other is so small... price is not big diff la... but i'm beri sure u can get mor freebies from C&C but none fr BM... wan mi 2 recommend sm1 fr C&C Leng Kee.. can giv u quite good deal...

 

FC - Colt Plus definite lose out... Vios VVti is designed for dat... i read/heard abt 18km/l but consider Colt Plus size n powerful MIVEC engine...hitting 11-13 km/l is good liao.

 

drive/feeling - u gotta try it out urself, diff plp diff feel...some tall drivers will "feel" Vios is crampy. it's not suitable for max capacity of 5 persons... some feel Cold Plus is too long... in fact, no one can answer u on tis point... go test drive.

 

Technical support - both C&C n BM onli give 1st 2 servicing labour free, gotta pay 4 everything starting fr the 3rd servicing... standard 4 most Jap cars. If u wan real good service support... go Fiat.

I am driving a Colt Plus(CP) and my uncles own Vios which I use during weekend before buying my car, honestly up to your liking.

 

Vios FC 15km/l, CP FC 13.5km/l (heavier cos using Merc A class chasis and the electronics)

Vios quiet, CP noisy compare to Vios

Vios made in Thailand, CP made in Japan

CP more powerful car compare to Vios (Mivec has tune towards VVTI concept, not like last time Civic SIR days).

CP has more space than Vios.

Vios has heavier steering wheels and CP has very light steering wheels (like the old Honda Accord)

 

You got to test drive both cars to feel the difference before buying it.

Thanks.. Colt plus has a higher engine capacity and higher CG. If FC are abt the same, that mean Colt plus is more fuel saving??

[Wakk0]

i agreed.. However, if i place durian in the boot, Colt has became Chock.

[Wakk0]

Is the engine the same as the Colt?? How much boot space is added to the PLUS series?

thanks

The new face lift vios looks not bad althou specs remains the same. I am not sure abt colt plus since nvr drove b4. I can say vios is not bad for a compact sedan. The boot is quite spacious, and I still can ferry 4 ppl comfortably. It is a light car, good power to weight ratio with 109bhp. Pick up is pretty quick, especially the MT version. Best of all it is a very moddable car too with alot of aftermarket parts available to play with.

[Familymanz]

CC also different.

 

I thought Cc is the same???

[So_nice]

how u wanna compare? one is like an mini mpv while the other is a compact sedan. colt plus comes wif turbo while vios is NA.

[Atlantis_boi]

Colt Plus has no turbo. It's CPT aKa Colt Plus Turbo tat has got turbo. Colt Plus onli got MIVEC.

CC or engine capacity is generally the same, falls in the 1.5L category.

[Familymanz]

I agree with ur other aspect...but cannot agree with Cc leh.... sama sama mah....

 

2 yrs ago.... Im eyeing the Vios.... now...Im eyeing the Colt Plus..... tats why Im darn sure abt the cc

 

Colt Plus Turbo.... I also dream of owning... but with my budget.... I can only afford a 60K+ Colt Plus lor.... Yes, other than the Colt Plus Turbo, there is a humble Colt Plus running on Mivec CVT

Both cars same capacity. FC are typical jap cars unless the engine is iDSI from honda jazz
