Both are true and people say lots of things on all cars. It all depends on what is your requirement. Brio cost you less, latest design in hatchbacks, Liva has Toyota reliability and wonderful to drive

Liva is very roomy and spacy.. The rear seat can seat 3 big adults comfortably, I doubt the Brio would be as big

Brio is the better car without doubt.

the people who adviced you are really misinformed.

Liva doesn't need much maintenance, its a Toyota, what else do you want ?

Brio is a city car and its safety is not underrated..Its a Honda, they make cars after hours of designing, research and thought, well which company doesn't..

If a car sells in India in fair numbers its good enough to warrant that its a good car..

Brio, has a good engine package, handles well, quite light on steering, good mileage, VTEC , fresh design, made by the gods of Petrol engine (Honda).

Liva on the other hand has a better space and creature comfort package, similar steering, similar mileage, design chopped of a full size etios sedan, made by Gods of indestructable engines.. (Watch Toyota Hillux Torture on TopGearBBC)..

Like I always suggest, rather than only looking at the specs online, do a actual test drive, If you like it, buy it..

Just wanted to clarify, brio is the better car to drive.

I think we are splitting hair. Both the cars are excellent, with a low cost of ownership (yes service costs are lower than Hyundai, for sure). The exact selection depends on your preference, usage, quality of A$$, etc. I expect the Brio to be somewhat more frugal - all Honda's have class leading fuel economy. The Toyota may have better grunt at lower revs.
