Verdict

The Toyota Vios NGC102 is the more complete new-car proposition despite costing RM19,508 more: its 2,620 mm wheelbase is 70 mm longer, it brings a CVT, six airbags, stability control and pre-collision braking, while its 5.2 L/100 km rating should matter at the pump. The Toyota Vios NCP150 counters with a 107 hp/141 Nm 1.5 litre, 503-litre boot and a five-speed manual, against 104 hp/138 Nm, 475 litres and a CVT for the NGC102. For a Malaysian buyer, the safety and cabin-tech gap is substantial; the NCP150 only makes sense when its lower entry price and manual gearbox are the priorities.

NCP150

Pick the Toyota Vios NCP150 if you want the RM71,092 entry price, a five-speed manual and 28 litres more boot space.

NGC102

Pick the Toyota Vios NGC102 if you will pay RM90,600 for six airbags, active safety systems, a CVT and the 70 mm longer wheelbase.
