Toyota Vios is a ladies' car, confirmed

Whichever way you look at it, the Vios is a car made for women.

You must have seen the TV commercial where a guy bangs into a glass door, has himself accidentally splashed with water and experiences other unfortunate events and when he finally reaches his car (a Toyota Vios), a group of girls enviously comment, “Ooh, he is so lucky” (referring to him owning the car). Now, what can we say about the commercial?

1. Evidently displayed by a series of unfortunate events, the guy is portrayed as being unlucky. Unlucky. Period. And that would include owning the Vios. Lucky for a girl to own, but unlucky for a man!

2. The people who think that the guy owning the Vios is a lucky man are girls. So only female drivers should find the Vios appealing.

Like the Honda City and Hyundai Accent, the Vios is targeted to women drivers. Doesn’t matter if the City receives the Mugen treatment, or the Accent is the RS version, or the Vios fitted with TRD kit that includes lowered suspension, loud exhaust and high rise spoilers. If you are a real man, stay away from these models.

Need more proof that the Vios is not a man’s car? Try to locate where the vanity mirror is. No, you won’t find it at the back of the sunvisor on the passenger’s side. You’ll find it on the driver’s side! Bingo!
