1. Hyundai Grand i10 – 1,436 units

As urban areas become increasingly congested and stressful, compact A-segment cars are gaining popularity due to their size and practicality. The smaller dimensions that were once considered a disadvantage now serve as a competitive advantage in this market segment. In Vietnam, this category includes small family cars like the Kia Morning, Hyundai Grand i10, Chevrolet Spark, and Mitsubishi Mirage. The sedan version of the i10 features dimensions of 3,995 x 1,660 x 1,505 mm, a wheelbase of 2,454 mm, and a ground clearance of 152 mm. While the Grand i10 hatchback can be seen as a slight facelift with minor updates, the sedan version offers a modern and more distinct design, based on the Hyundai Xcent from India. The sedan's front end features horizontal chrome bars in its grille, giving it a more sophisticated look, unlike the sportier, darker honeycomb grille of the hatchback. Despite its attractive price, the Grand i10 offers a simple but functional cabin with a youthful two-tone design and smart layout that maximizes space for five passengers. Thanks to its competitive wheelbase, both the hatchback and sedan versions offer spacious seating. The higher-spec automatic models come with leather and fabric seat covers, while the manual versions feature fabric-only seats. Under the hood, the Grand i10 sedan is equipped with a 1.2L Kappa 4-cylinder engine with Dual VTVT variable valve timing, providing 87 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 120 Nm of torque at 4,000 rpm. The sedan offers both a 5-speed manual and a 4-speed automatic transmission, with an emphasis on fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, and reliable performance due to the new engine's low-friction camshaft chain, carbon-coated valve lifters, and aluminum structure. Hyundai offers the Grand i10 sedan at the following prices in Hanoi: Grand i10 1.2 AT Sedan: 415,000,000 VND, Grand i10 1.2 AT: 405,000,000 VND, Grand i10 1.2 MT Sedan: 390,000,000 VND, Grand i10 1.2 MT Sedan Base: 350,000,000 VND.

2. Toyota Fortuner – 1,346 units

The mid-size 7-seat SUV segment is a fiercely competitive battleground, with many manufacturers vying for a place. This vehicle type is not only spacious, capable of carrying more passengers, but also suitable for commercial transport services. The Toyota Fortuner faces competition from models like the Nissan Terra, Ford Everest, Hyundai Santa Fe, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, Isuzu mu-X, and Chevrolet Trailblazer. The Fortuner's sleek, aggressive lighting design extends across the sides, offering a much more rugged look compared to its predecessor's boxy design. The 4x2 version comes equipped with halogen lamps combined with Projector bulbs, while the 4x4 version features premium Bi-LED lamps with integrated modern LED daytime running lights. The signature trapezoidal grille, framed with shiny chrome and connected by robust horizontal bars, merges seamlessly with the headlights, providing a refined look. The front bumper has an angular design, characteristic of a true SUV, while the large fog light housing, trimmed with chrome, is aesthetically pleasing and features LED fog lamps for enhanced nighttime visibility. The 2019 Toyota Fortuner has dimensions of 4,795 x 1,855 x 1,835 mm, with a wheelbase of 2,745 mm. Compared to the previous generation, the Fortuner is now 90 mm longer, 15 mm wider, and 15 mm lower, with a 5 mm shorter wheelbase. When compared to larger competitors such as the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, Hyundai Santa Fe, or Ford Everest, the Fortuner is only outdone by the Ford model with its measurements of 4,892 x 1,860 x 1,837 mm and a 100 mm shorter wheelbase than the Chevrolet Trailblazer. Customers can choose from a variety of options, including gasoline or diesel engines, 4x2 or 4x4 drivetrains, and either manual or automatic transmissions. The gasoline 2TR-FE engine comes with advanced Dual VVT-i technology, while the diesel engine, now 2.4L (down from 2.5L), is paired with either a 6-speed automatic or newly developed 6-speed manual gearbox. Pricing for the Toyota Fortuner in Hanoi is as follows: Fortuner 2.8V 4x4: 1,354,000,000 VND, Fortuner 2.7V 4x2: 1,150,000,000 VND, Fortuner 2.4 4x2 AT: 1,094,000,000 VND, Fortuner 2.4G 4x2 MT: 1,026,000,000 VND.

3. Kia Morning – 1,282 units

In recent years, with increasingly congested and stressful urban traffic, compact and convenient A-segment cars have become the new trend. What was once seen as a disadvantage due to their small size is now an advantage in the competitive automotive market. In Vietnam, this segment is best represented by the compact, affordable, and easy-to-repair Kia Morning.

Compared to its predecessor, the 2019 Kia Morning maintains the same design with front fog lamps and rear reflectors, along with two air vents that enhance the car's sporty and robust appearance. Additionally, the halogen projector headlights, LED daytime running lights, and the signature tiger-nose grille continue to serve as iconic design elements, leaving a strong impression on many Vietnamese car buyers.

Despite its compact size, the 2019 Morning offers a surprisingly comfortable ride, with a well-designed interior that provides sufficient legroom and headspace for passengers up to 1.7 meters tall.

The 1.25L Kappa 4-cylinder DOHC engine remains the same for the 1.25 variant, delivering 86 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and a peak torque of 120 Nm at 4,000 rpm. The car is available with two transmission options: a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic.

In terms of safety, the 2019 Morning comes equipped with ABS (anti-lock braking system) and EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution), but both the Morning Si variants only have a single airbag for the driver. This shortcoming is addressed in the higher-end S variant, which comes with two front airbags and an added reverse camera. Given its price and the general standards of the segment, the safety features on the 2019 Morning are acceptable.

Overall, the 2019 Kia Morning remains a compelling choice in the small urban car segment, with its youthful design, well-equipped interior, fuel-efficient performance, low maintenance costs, and good maneuverability in dense urban areas. It is an ideal vehicle for daily commuting, family transport, or occasional weekend trips.

Morning SI AT: 379,000,000

4. Toyota Innova – 1136 units

The Toyota Innova is one of the most popular MPV models in Vietnam, known for its spaciousness, durability, and high brand reputation. The 2019 Toyota Innova features dimensions of 4,735 mm in length, 1,830 mm in width, and 1,795 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,750 mm. Its ground clearance is 178 mm, and the minimum turning radius is 5.4 meters, making it highly maneuverable even on crowded streets or rough roads.

The standard version of the Innova has a neutral and simple design, with straight lines and a boxy shape that appeals to customers aged 35 and above. For those with higher aesthetic preferences, the Venturer variant offers additional exterior upgrades.

The three variants of the 2019 Innova (E, G, and V) each feature different seat materials: regular fabric for the E, premium fabric for the G, and leather for the V. The seating arrangement varies, with the V having a 2-2-3 configuration and the G and E offering a 2-3-3 configuration.

The 2019 Innova is powered by a 1.998L 4-cylinder engine (1TR-FE) producing 136 horsepower at 5,600 rpm and a maximum torque of 183 Nm at 4,000 rpm. The G and V variants come with a 6-speed automatic transmission, while the E variant is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. The car features two driving modes: ECO for fuel efficiency and POWER for high performance. The main difference between the two modes is the engine's rpm range, throttle sensitivity, and exhaust sound. ECO mode is smoother and quieter, keeping the rpm under 2,000, while POWER mode delivers a more aggressive performance with higher revs, reaching over 3,000 rpm.

In the Vietnamese market, the 2.0 E and G variants are a great choice for those who run businesses such as passenger transport or car rentals, offering a good balance of space, durability, and essential features. The premium 2.0 V variant, on the other hand, is aimed at families, corporate clients, or businesses with a higher budget.

This 5-seater CUV is priced between 898 and 1,009 million VND, offering two engine options: 2.0L and 2.5L.

The new 2019 Mazda CX-5 offers a new diesel engine option, the SkyActiv-D 2.2L turbocharged engine, producing 172 horsepower and 420 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. This new version also includes both front-wheel drive (FWD) and all-wheel drive (AWD) configurations.

In addition, the updated CX-5 is equipped with Mazda's new G-Vectoring Control Plus, which uses braking to enhance vehicle stability when accelerating or cornering, providing a more refined driving experience. This technology is now standard across all variants of the 2019 Mazda CX-5.

With its youthful and sporty design, the Mazda CX-5 is a top choice for many Vietnamese consumers. Coupled with its standout interior and exterior features, the famous SkyActiv engine, and a 6-speed transmission, the CX-5 promises a fun and exciting driving experience. It is an excellent option for those seeking an SUV that delivers a more thrilling drive rather than a purely comfortable family vehicle.

6. Honda City – 1096 units

The Honda City has become one of the top choices in the B-segment sedan market in Vietnam. It offers a competitive price, sporty design, excellent driving experience, and full safety features. The 2019 Honda City is a facelift version, so its overall design is quite similar to the previous model, with only minor updates to enhance its appeal and masculinity.

At the front, the grille adopts the 'Solid Wing' design with a sleek chrome strip extending to both sides, connecting with the headlights. This distinctive feature is now a hallmark of Honda’s current design language. The front and rear bumpers have been subtly refined to blend more harmoniously with the car’s overall look. Other details remain unchanged from the previous version.

Inside, Honda has addressed the shortcomings of the previous model to improve comfort and user experience. The cabin is spacious, with ample legroom and headroom for people up to 1.7m tall.

The vehicle’s features and safety systems are well-matched to its price point, making it ideal for work, family trips, or long-distance travel. However, the B-segment sedan does have a few drawbacks, such as fabric seats and manual air conditioning controls (on the 1.5 version), and average cooling performance.

7. Kia Cerato – 1056 units

The 2019 Kia Cerato embraces the popular 'coupe-like' styling trend, inspired by the new Honda Civic. The longer front end and sloping roofline give the sedan a more coupe-like appearance, deviating from the traditional sedan design. The front retains Kia's iconic tiger-nose grille, now with a more three-dimensional look. The fog lamps have been moved lower and feature lenses, while the front bumper air intakes resemble the design style of the new Honda Civic, giving the Cerato a more aggressive and stylish appearance.

The interior of the 2019 Cerato maintains Kia’s signature design but introduces a few new features, including uniquely shaped round air conditioning vents and an 8-inch touch screen infotainment system that supports both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A wireless phone charging tray adds a modern touch to the cabin. Among its standout features is the Harman Kardon 320W audio system, strategically placed on the doors.

With overall dimensions of 5,362 mm in length, 1,860 mm in width, and 1,830 mm in height, plus a wheelbase of 3,220 mm, it stands out in its class.

The front features a wide, horizontal grille and robust, angular bumpers that emphasize strength.

The 2019 Accent follows Hyundai's 'Fluidic Sculpture 2.0' design language, similar to other models from the brand. Compared to its predecessor, the new model has a more refined and sporty appearance. The front grille is designed with a waterfall shape, finished in chrome, giving the car an upscale feel. However, the headlights appear a bit oversized relative to the rest of the car's proportions, lacking some horizontal balance.

Aside from the base 1.4 MT variant with standard halogen lights, the other three versions come with projector lamps that feature automatic on/off, adaptive beam adjustment, and integrated daytime LED lights. In the current B-segment, only the Honda City and Mazda 2 also offer LED headlights.

Measuring 4,440 mm in length, 1,729 mm in width, and 1,460 mm in height, the 2019 Accent is slightly larger than the previous model, with an increase of 70 mm in length and 29 mm in width.
