Toyota Kirloskar Motors launched the Etios (read road test) in December 2010 and at the same time unveiled the Liva, its hatchback. The Etios which was priced at 4.96 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) certainly got its fair share of attention and now the company plans to bring the its Liva into the Indian market in April.
The Liva will get the 1.2-litre petrol engine which will help Toyota to get the duty cut. The Liva has been developed on a new platform and has a completely new engine which is not present in any Toyota car so far. The wait for the sedan in the diesel avataar will also be something to look forward to this year.
