Different body dimensions: Yaris has a length, width, and height of 3915mm, 1695mm, and 1545mm respectively; Zhi Xuan has a length, width, and height of 4160mm, 1700mm, and 1495mm respectively.
I've driven both the Yaris and the Vios, and my personal feeling is that the Yaris is really compact. It's super easy to turn and park in city traffic jams. The trunk can barely fit a backpack, and the rear seats are cramped, making it suitable for singles or young couples. The Vios is a size larger overall, with a length exceeding 4.4 meters. The rear seats can comfortably accommodate three adults or a baby seat, and the trunk has no problem fitting a large suitcase. It feels more stable at high speeds and less floaty. Both cars use a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, but the Vios has slightly higher horsepower and accelerates faster. The Yaris is slower off the mark but is quiet and fuel-efficient enough for city commuting. In terms of price, the Yaris starts at around 80,000 RMB, which is more affordable, while the Vios starts at 100,000 RMB. Whether spending an extra 20,000 RMB for more space is worth it depends on your needs. Both Toyota models are reliable with few issues over time, but the Vios has a more stylish dashboard design with a bit of a tech feel.
