TATA VISTA
A Yaris sized hatchback that rivals the likes of the Picanto from India has arrived. While it is cheaper than the Manza, it has less power (they have the same engine) and less amenities but the price says it. At least you get more space for the buck.
The Good: Affordable price
The Bad: Lacks safety features
Price Range: P565,000
