Yes, the car is built to a price, but by no means it is an inferior product. Same engine, good build quality and same reliability.<br /><br />The 2015 JD Power survey rated Brio as most reliable car among all.<br /><br />Infact, the Honda S660 is even smaller than Brio, yet it is not sold anywhere except Japan. Certain cars are designed for certain markets - its a business decision.<br /><br />If your commute involves lot of city driving then its pretty good car. Cars of the future will become smaller and smaller, including land cruiser, deal with it. And get over the hangover please.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-50713504961926017792016-03-14T21:17:58.654+08:002016-03-14T21:17:58.654+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11819726144946660333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-84485279397158079712016-03-14T21:16:40.123+08:002016-03-14T21:16:40.123+08:00since swift 1.2 is better than the brio, then whic...since swift 1.2 is better than the brio, then which is better?the swift 1.2 or the yaris 1.3?just askinganonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11819726144946660333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-44014717298224222582015-12-26T17:58:59.739+08:002015-12-26T17:58:59.739+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16699806629153537436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-87511683515539188922015-12-26T17:58:27.724+08:002015-12-26T17:58:27.724+08:00i want to hear commenta about brio please... i want to hear commenta about brio please...

If there were no intent to build a smaller engine swift for developing countries, I doubt the 1.2L Swift would even materialize.<br /><br />Also, the 1.2L Swift being sold in Europe doesn't mean that its a 1st world car. The MU-X, which is a 3rd world vehicle, is being sold in Australia. So following your dumbass flawed logic, it can be presumed that the MU-X is not a 3rd world vehicle right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-8715016149414724172015-07-20T20:58:28.665+08:002015-07-20T20:58:28.665+08:00Intent is irrelevant.

Both came from the exact same platform as the original Swift with a 1.5L engine released in 2004. So differences in engine size and trim/equipment-levels are irrelevant, they all share the same platform & chassis developed in Japan to conform with 1st-world safety & emissions standards.<br /><br />Your argument is as silly as saying that the Civic & CR-V are 3rd-world vehicles just because they happened to be assembled in Thailand.

The Jazz still remains as Honda's supermini offering in first world countries. <br /><br />It sounds like discrimination but aside from the difference in standards, one should look at the kind of people buying from different markets. Buyers from third world countries are more price sensitive, for instance. And SUVs like the Fortuner and Montero are selling like hotcakes because they're big, seat seven people and are relatively cheap. Nevermind if their ride quality and handling sucks balls because they're much cheaper than comparable (but more upscale) models like the Ford Explorer and Hyundai Santa Fe. Imagine if they brought first world models like the Toyota Highlander here. It'd probably cost nearly 2M pesos. Big difference in price.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521223446245210239.post-38823932601958957742015-07-18T19:58:15.592+08:002015-07-18T19:58:15.592+08:00Stop feeding the troll who is obviously a Brio own...Stop feeding the troll who is obviously a Brio owner.

Yes, the 1.2L Swift is being sold in countries like the UK, Germany, the Netherlands -- the one with the same 1.2L engine you'd find in the Indian market. The smaller 1.2L engine was offered in lieu of ever tightening taxes on emissions. And FYI, the current Swift was designed in Japan for global consumption. The Brio on the other hand is exclusively for sale in emerging markets aka 'third world countries'. Make a coherent reply once the Brio is sold in first world countries.
