If you want to purchase a used car in Kenya, it is advisable to get a good mechanic who will choose you over the seller. This is because several people have been heard complaining about social media about how their mechanic decided to collude with the car seller so that they can get a bad deal.
Currently, several Kenyans are going for SUVs instead of the normal sedans. This means that the price of sedans may drop. However, this might take a while because the demand for sedans in Kenya is still high.
When purchasing a sedan in Kenya, several people always have a hard time when choosing between the Toyota Premio and Axio.
1. Toyota Premio.
The Toyota Premio is a popular sedan in Kenya that was produced from December 2001 to March 2021. It is quite similar to the Toyota Allion and is available in two generations with three engine options 1.5L, 1.8L and 2.0L. It is good on fuel with a stylish and comfortable interior that can accommodate five occupants with enough legroom and headroom. It has a good fuel economy of about 18 km/L.
2. Toyota Axio.
Unlike the Premio, the Toyota Axio has not been in the market for long since its production started in 2012. It is believed to be the sedan version of the Toyota Corolla Fielder since they share the same design and interior. Its interior is stylish and spacious with a lot of headroom and legroom for the passengers. It is also available in a hybrid option with three engine options 1.3L, 1.5L and 1.8L.
When you compare the two vehicles, you might choose the Toyota Axio. This is because of the price and the fuel economy. The price of the Toyota Axio is about 1.5 million Kenyan shillings while that of the Premio is 2 million Kenyan shillings. In terms of fuel efficiency, the hybrid version of the Axio consumes about 33.3 km/L of fuel while the Toyota Premio has no hybrid option. This means that the Axio is better since you get value for money.
