OP considering cost was a factor in your decision to go with the 1.6 engine would you have gone for the Fiesta instead if it had been available then? It's around 180,000 Baht cheaper.

Probably not only because my gf (now wife) strongly prefered Toyota or Honda over anything else. If I had to make a different choice due to price I would have bought the Vios. Even though I seriously dislike the instrument cluster being in the center, I probably would have gotten used to it. A dressed up Vios in black or white looks pretty good. We wanted an Altis size car for more driving comfort.

Bigger is always better, You never need the power more than when you don't have it available. In most cases, if you're driving alone or with little in the way of extra baggage, the 1.6 Lt engine is good. If you take fairly regular trips loaded up, you'll wish you had the bigger engine.
