Review: 2014 Toyota Wigo 1.0G M/T

Photos by Ulysses Ang
Owning a brand-new car should be stress-free. No anxiety attacks when thinking about payments. No worries about reliability. No agonizing over fuel and maintenance costs. Toyota’s latest addition to their line-up, the Wigo, is promising just that: it’s all about easy-to-own, easy-to-drive, and easy-to-enjoy. But can it live up to the promise? I spent an entire week with the Wigo 1.0G M/T—the full-loaded model that doesn’t break the psychological P 500,000-mark (P 499,000 to be exact). Just how well does it perform? Read on.

First and foremost, if you’re expecting the Wigo to perform like a Camry or 86, you better realign your thinking. It’s a city car and it comes with all the pros and cons commonly associated with such. Measuring at just 3,600-mm in length, it can squeeze through the tightest of spots, be it on the road or in the parking lot. More than once, people back into the space occupied by the Wigo only to realize that there’s a car parked there. It’s that tiny. Thankfully, tiny doesn’t mean the lack of character.



On the contrary, the Wigo looks sharp and snazzy. It doesn’t have the same futuristic anime vibe as the Corolla Altis or Vios, but it’s a design that will wear very well. The angular headlights with carbon fiber-esque inserts and the triangular front fog light surrounds give the front fascia some character. The rear is somewhat more generic, but the rear spoiler does cut a nice rear profile. Plus, the six-spoke 14-inch alloys and 175/65R14 fill the wheel wells very well. If there’s one criticism I’d level against the Wigo is the abundance of chrome. I’m sure Toyota has determined that the city car crowd loves the shiny stuff, but it’s a bit of an overkill on the Wigo. It’s everywhere—the upper and lower grille, the door handles, and even the door moldings. It looks more aftermarket than factory stock, and even then, it’s not something pretty.

For its size, the Wigo’s cabin is surprisingly roomy. The interior echoes the exterior’s design theme with a pleasantly modern feel. As expected for a sub-half-a-million-peso car, the interior materials are hard and plasticky. However, the fit and finish are surprisingly consistent—a testament to Toyota’s build quality whether you’re talking about a luxury sedan or an entry-level city car. Instead of going all black, the Wigo uses shades of gray. Together with the expansive windshield, thin pillars, light metal applique, and extensive patterning on the seats, it gives an airy feel especially from the driver’s seat. Surprisingly, the front seats don’t offer headrest adjustment while the rears do. Although this is to pinch every penny possible, it certainly is a recipe of possible whiplash injury (it’s that low). The rest of the seats though are largely okay for spending traffic in except for those with sensitive back or bums. In terms of luggage space, the Wigo has enough for a weekend out-of-town trip. The rear bench can be folded as a single piece to increase loading space even more, but it won’t result in a completely flat loading space and will reduce the maximum occupant count to two.



Despite being priced so aggressively, the Wigo is excellently equipped. Aside from the prerequisite power windows, door locks, and mirrors, the center console contains a 2-DIN touchscreen audio system with USB, Apple iPod, and Bluetooth capability; perfect to keep the driver and passengers entertained. It’s also GPS navigation ready if you wish to shell for the additional cash for the receiver and SD card. The instrument cluster also has a multi-information display that shows range and mileage. Dual SRS airbags and anti-lock brakes are standard equipment as well.

With a week planned out for the Wigo, it’s great to test it in various road conditions to simulate typical scenarios that an owner would encounter. Like most three-cylinder engine, the Wigo doesn’t have the smoothest idling—it sounds rickety, uneven, and just plain unbalanced. As you give it enough gas though, the engine starts to smoothen out. The 1.0-liter engine tops out at just 65 horsepower and 85 Nm of torque, but considering the Wigo’s bantam weight, it’s spritely through city traffic as long as the roads are flat enough. Its behavior changes rapidly depending on the grade of road. On steep inclines (or when fully-loaded), the Wigo will struggle. One time, I tried “hanging” it in the middle of a steep incline only to have it stall. Even by dumping the clutch and giving full throttle, it barely made it through. The five-speed manual has long but precise throws, reminiscent of the Corolla AE92. The light clutch pedal is also very easy to modulate, though the engagement is on the high side.



Driven purely in the city, the Wigo is a perfectly great commuter car. The electric power steering is light and quick, resulting in a tight 4.7-meter turning radius. The suspension is well-balanced between comfort and responsiveness, and reacts the same way whether fully-loaded with passengers or not. The sightlines also make it easy to slot into the tightest of spaces, sometimes to the chagrin of jeepney drivers and motorcycle riders alike. As a long-distance tourer though, the Wigo’s weaknesses start to emerge. NVH is almost non-existent with all sorts of noises permeating the cabin at high speeds. The steering also starts to lighten up at around 80 km/h as if the Gajah Tunngal tires aren’t contacting the road anymore.

With a gearing designed more for city driving than highway driving, the Wigo’s fuel economy is largely dependent on the speed you’re traveling on. In city traffic, it manages 12.7 km/L if you follow the Eco light religiously. On the highway, if you keep your speed at a constant 80 km/h, it returns 23.1 km/L. However, add just 20 km/h more (100 km/h) and this efficiency drops to 18.5 km/L.



For all its misses, you can’t deny that the Toyota Wigo is priced affordably. And because of that, it begins to look like a bargain. Designed as your first brand-new car, the Wigo provides excellent fuel economy and packaging together with Toyota’s penchant for making nearly indestructible cars. It may still be some ways away from the Corolla Altis or even the Vios in terms of driving performance; but for what it is, which is an entry-level city car, it’s a perfectly great choice.

    4. Hi Ulysses, Is Wigo a good car for out of town trips, like Baguio?

      Delete
    5. You can bring it, but I won't really recommend it if you do it regularly. With a small engine and a small fuel tank, the Wigo might struggle going up to Baguio without refueling. It's really a city car more than anything else. But if you push it, it can go up.

      Delete

      Delete
    2. It's not built for highway driving, but kaya niya. It's not really planted and you'll feel the difference between going 80 and 100 km/h. By 100 km/h, you feel like the front tires already losing grip. Also, fuel economy isn't too good when you're doing high speed...the gearing is designed more for city use.

    13. Define "poor" muna.. Everyone may have a different perspective as to the extent of poorness.. I'm earning more than enough for myself and I can definitely get a loan for a brand new Wigo but not maybe for my own house or cars worth a million. A lot more out there can't afford as much. But am I still a poor man? -Kalbo!!

    14. Kung maka-pagpost at comment parang alam nila meaning nung idiom ah. Hahaha!

      Delete
    15. Poor can be defined by your lifestyle. I guess it's more of being practical kung bumili ka ng wigo, that you can spend your money to other finances or investments like condo or any property that will increase it's value after few years. Car is not an investment. Maybe to those guys that we call millionaires or billionaires, but for peeps likes me. I'd rather be practical and get the what you call "poor man's car"

    1. It depends on your definition of a poor man's car. The fact that it was engineered to fit a price (sub-500k) with very obvious compromises makes it a poor man's car. Though it comes with standard features found on more expensive cars (ABS, touch screen HU, etc), you cannot deny the basic feel of the car - from its trim to its engine.

      Personally though, anyone with money to buy a car is not a poor man. Heck, only 10% of the country's households have cars.

    1. Klaro naman po. Pero, kung mahilig ka sa sounds you can upgrade it but you can still use the audio/video unit mo kasi maganda na ang settings. Ang mga speakers lang nang wigo medyo maliit medaling mag overload pag mag volume ka nang malakas. Pero, kung music at news lang gusto mo klarong klaro po.

  27. Hi guys. I'm a proud owner of toyota wigo 1.0 G

    I've bought this last June 2015
    The second day I tried to break-in the car with 4 people going south.
    going from full idle to 100kmph is a breeze. St most I stayed in for 100kmph to 140kmph
    No issues of whatever

    Top speed of 155kmph (Sagad na tapak) so far hahaha although it is still accelerating ayoko lang masyado mabilis kasi natatakot ako.

    And yes. Wigo is very light. I experienced a bus passed us by while I was running 120kmph na feel ko sa loob yung pag wiggle due to fast wind

    I tried to go to baguio with four people. Kennon Road daan. Ok naman no issues. I stayed on low gear. Didn't get the chance to make some overtakes kasi makitid daan plus di ko Ramdam hatak. Maybe if I'm alone kayang kaya. Full tank lang from fairview to baguio then back to slex

    I'm planning to go to Sagada this week with four people including me.
    What do you think? Should I push wigo more or I'm at my limit with it?

    1. Hello sir,

      Natry mo sya sa Sagada? If yes, kumusta naman performance nya? MT ba sayo or AT?

    1. Hindi nakakatakot idrive ang wigo sa Nlex, Slex, Sctex, Tplex, etc. as long as you maintain your car in good running condition. Being a small car with a 3 cylinder engine does not mean it can't be driven in highways or for long drives. Just drive defensively.
