Kaya nga po...gusto ko malaman kung gaano safe ang body. Lalo n masmaliit sya s mirage. Miski yung agya o ayla, wala din crash test. Gaano kaya k tibay ang body ng wigo s crash?

The Wigo is not sold anywhere where crash certification is mandatory. ASEAN NCAP has only just started up.

I don't feel na masmaliit wigo kesa mirage..sa totoo lang masmaluwag cabin space ng wigo kesa mirage..at masmaganda suspension. Lamang lng tlga ng onti mirage sa engine power..

The reason bkit malaki cabin ng wigo kesa mirage, kasi medyo boxy yung design ng wigo yung mirage rounded. Malaki naman kasi ang silbi ng design ng mirage, which is aerodynamic kesa wigo, ang downside is a little bit smaller in the inside. Also yung main structure ng chassis ng mirage makapal kaya din mataas ang safety rating ng car. Yung wigo wala talaga ako makita miski sa ibang forums about its crash proofing or details man lang ng structural integrity ng Wigo. Sana yung ASEAN NCAP gawin na yung test para sa wigo para makita kung gaanon k tibay ang body ng Wigo. Safety din kasi ang primary concern ko sa kotse, lalo supermini's toh, maliit lang yng space.

Obviously, gusto nya kuha ng Wigo and sabi ko na mukhang okay siya because Toyota siya and since pang city-driving lang naman sabi ko sa kanya eh makakatipid siya sa gas and di gaano malaki hindi mahirap i-maneuver.

Now, after going through some back-reading sa thread na to, and sa mga iba pang non-Tsikot reviews about the car, me mga nbabasa ako about sa nagiingay na engine, nanginginig pagka naka 60-80kph and I wanted to verify kung true ba ito? The reason natanong ko ito is ibbyahe din nya daw ito tuwing umuuwi siya sa Angeles, Pampanga and natural dadaan ng NLEX probably once a month.

Thanks!

1. Ingay sa engine. Sa tingin ko normal lang yung sounds emitted ng wigo engine. tahimik. masyado ngang tahimik para sa taste ko na hindi ko napapansin noong unang drayb ko na namatayan na pala ako e. (pero kase galing ako sa maingay na nissan sentra lec baka kaya ganon)

2. Nanginginig *60 to 80kph...not true. kasarapan pa lang ng feels sa pagdrive ang *60 to 80...max i've gone is 110 sa nlex. can't get any faster...not because of the limitations of the car, but of the driver.

Noong una, my choice was narrowed down between Wigo and Mirage. Pero, my heart almost instantly went to Wigo the moment I saw it. Not that the Mirage was bad, or had issues...mas naangasan lang talaga siguro ako dun sa non-aerodynamic face ng Wigo. mukhang nakangiting bullfrog. hehe.

My 2 cents. I think ultimately both are 3 cylinder cars. Mirage has advantage on engine power so mas able sya lalo na on steep climbs but it does not mean that wigo will not be able to climb on steep ascends. motorcycle nga na may sakay na pito kayang kaya umakyat (mabagal nga lang), wigo pa hehe. Between mirage and wigo it just has to boil down to the buyer's budget and preference. Kasi ang mirage naman maski sabihin natin na 1.2 liters e 3 cyclinders pa rin sya. Kung ico-compute naman natin ang cost of ownership including the fuel consumption comparing the 534K to 648K e break even lang din. What I don't like in mirage though is yung shock nya medyo malambot which is mostly common to mitsubishi cars. But I like it's power, fuel efficiency and technologies (GPS, climate control, EBD, ABS, etc). With Wigo naman I don't like the small engine but i like the spacious interior, its price affordability, and maintainability pagkatapos ng warranty kasi it's a toyota. If we are really budget conscious and still prefer the Mirage, why not buy a 2nd hand high-end mirage. Spot for a good buy at around 450-500K 2013 model up, chances are hindi naman siguro ganun kalaspag yung car given na 2 years pa lang sya nagamit.
