- Price range
- P75 → P25 of asking — the middle half of listings at that age sits inside this band. Outliers above and below excluded.
- Down payment
- MAS Notice 642 LTV cap applied to the age's median asking: 30% when OMV is up to S$20k, 40% above. Max loan tenure 7 years. Rows marked * mix both OMV buckets — we display the conservative 40% figure so the quote never under-states what a luxury-OMV listing at that age would actually require.
- Availability
- High when this age's listing share is ≥1.5× the model's uniform expectation, low when ≤0.6×, medium otherwise. Model-relative, so an evenly-spread model lands all-medium.

BARGAIN BUYSWell-built but depreciates fast — buy cheap, drive long.
- Brand reliability
- Consumer-survey composite — JD Power · WhatCar · Consumer Reports. Same score for every variant of a given make.
- Resale strength
- 100 − 3× annualised tangible-decay (COE-stripped). Fitted from each variant's asking-price-by-age regression then averaged at model level.
- Peer set
- Every same-segment model with ≥5 active PARF listings whose variants fit a depreciation curve. Practicality isn't plotted — it's a body-shape constant within the segment, so it would be the same for every dot.
- Quadrants
- The crosshair marks the segment median on each axis. Top-right (Safe Bets) is strong on both; top-left (Hidden Gems) holds value above what the brand reputation suggests; bottom-right (Bargain Buys) is well-built but depreciates fast — buy cheap; bottom-left (High Risk) is soft on both.

Verdict
Asian-market econobox built for taxi-grade durability — 1NR-FE 1.3L + 2NR-FE 1.5L dual-VVT-i engines are widely regarded as bulletproof, taxi fleets routinely cross 400k km. Post-2013 Super CVT-i is robust under normal driving; failure cluster surfaces 60-80k km when fluid was never changed. SG market sees both the 4-speed auto (pre-facelift) and the CVT (post-facelift) — both are well-understood. The dominant negative signal is heavy PHV / taxi history; private-use Vios is the cleaner buy.

What's good
- Private-history Vios with CVT fluid service in the receipts — the platform is built for the taxi grind so private-use cars with proper service are extremely high-confidence buys. CVT fluid change at 60k km is the single best durability signal.
- Pre-facelift XP150 with 4-speed auto — sidesteps the CVT story entirely; the 4-speed Aisin auto is mechanically simple and durable. Lower fuel economy is the trade-off; the gearbox itself is essentially failure-free.
What to watch
- Ex-taxi / heavy-PHV Vios at high mileage — the dominant negative signal on this gen. CVT, suspension, interior + bodyshell wear far outpace the odometer; treat as commercial-grade depreciation. Many SG used Vios are ex-taxi — verify the previous use.
- Pre-2019 CVT showing jerky engagement or hesitation — the pre-facelift CVT carries known shifting-smoothness issues; the 2019 update optimised it. Persistent symptoms past warm-up = price in S$3-5k CVT service or walk.

Verdict
Predecessor to the curated Vios XP150 — 1.5L 1NZ-FE petrol + 4-speed automatic. Bulletproof Toyota engine family (same as Yaris / Probox / Sienta XP80 of era). Cars 12-18 years old; aged-Toyota items dominate. Heavy SG PHV / taxi exposure same as XP150. Private-history examples are the cleaner buys.

What's good
- Private-history Vios XP90 with full Toyota service — boring durable Toyota; same engine family as Yaris / Probox / Sienta XP80.
- 1NZ-FE with no PHV history + full service — bulletproof engine + sidesteps PHV wear.
What to watch
- Heavy-PHV / ex-taxi XP90 at high mileage — dominant SG used pattern.
- Tired AC and worn suspension at 12+ years — universal aging items.

2 trimsCommon questions about the Toyota Vios
- How much does a used Toyota Vios cost in Singapore?
- Most used Toyota Vios on the market are around 7 years old, asking roughly S$50k–S$60k (typically about S$55k). That's the age with the widest choice — and the most sellers competing, so it's where you'll have the most room to bargain.
- How much does a used Toyota Vios depreciate per year?
- A used Toyota Vios loses value at a fairly steady pace — around 24% a year — with no real plateau. An older one costs less but keeps falling at much the same rate, so there's no single 'bargain age': buy on price and condition, not on timing.
- Is the Toyota Vios reliable?
- In our read, the Toyota Vios scores 90 out of 100 on brand reliability. That still varies by generation and how the individual car was looked after, so always check the service history before you commit.
- What should I expect to pay for a used Toyota Vios with a given mileage?
- It depends on the exact variant, age and mileage — a higher-mileage car should ask less. Use the price modeller on this page to get a fair-price range for a specific age and mileage, so you know what to offer.
- Where do these Toyota Vios figures come from?
- They're worked out from current used-Toyota Vios listings in Singapore — asking prices, mileage and registration years — not past transaction prices. We refresh them regularly, and we flag thin data rather than guess.
