Car Profiles - Toyota Wigo

TOYOTA WIGO
With the Vios going to P600 thousand territory, now Toyota needs something to attract newbies to the brand. Basically a Daihatsu from Indonesia, the Wigo has items that its Korean and Indian contemporaries lack such as a rear wiper and an automatic transmission.

The Good: Practical to own, Toyota badge is enough for some.
The Bad: Cheap interior materials. There's the Mitsubishi Mirage.

Price Range: P448,000-P534,000
