Toyota Vios: NSP151 vs NGC102
Verdict
The Toyota Vios NGC102 is the safer, more modern buy: RM90,600 versus RM74,154 buys six airbags instead of two, AEB, a 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating and a 70 mm longer wheelbase. It is also wider and slightly taller. The Toyota Vios NSP151 fights back with a manual gearbox, a bigger 503-litre boot and marginally stronger 106 hp/140 Nm outputs. For most Malaysian buyers, the newer car’s safety kit matters more than the old car’s small mechanical and luggage-space wins.
Pick the Toyota Vios NSP151 if you want the cheaper Vios, prefer a manual gearbox and need the larger 503-litre boot.
Pick the Toyota Vios NGC102 if you want the newer-generation Vios with CVT, six airbags, AEB and a 5-star ASEAN NCAP rating.
