Daihatsu Mira is million time better than Suzuki Wagon R.
Mira is an imported refurbished japanese car. So it has all japanese safety standards like air bags for example.
We are getting imported Wagon R as well in Pakistan.
Toyota Prius and aqua is best option. However Prius and aqua are expensive as compared to Mira and Wagon R.
WagonR is better than Mira in price. Cheaper spare parts, cheaper maintenance and best of all it comes with a 1000cc engine so better performance and greater AC cooling even travelling on longer routes too.
Mira on the other hand is slightly efficient in fuel consumption but it comes as a second hand car and also it’s lower in height which is problematic in city driving. Also Mira is slightly expensive than Wagon R.
MIRA big time. 660cc, very economic, 20-21 km per liter, fully automatic, power windows, power steering, parts easily available. Better in shape compared to Wagon R.
I have had the experience of both and kept Mira as my primary ride. There is no comparison of a JDM with PKDM. Built quality, ride comfort, safety features, fuel efficiency and everything else is a lot better in Mira.
Japanese is better built and has more options but its underpowered. Ac is not efficient in hot summer afternoons and traffic jams. While Pakistani WagonR is 1000cc and very powerful in its class. Parts availability is no problem for Wagon R while finding spares for Japanese is a hassle.
