Proud owner of Toyota Etios VX.Driven 6000km

 

Exterior Exteriors looks very good.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I am driving VX model and bought it from Esprit toyota Mathura road ,Delhi.Primarly Iam extending my thanks to Mr.Shaji[ Manager -Office] and Mr.Umair [executive]for helping me to uderstand about Etios. My mechine is from the very first lot dispatched from the toyota factory.Im 6  feet 2 inches tall and a man with my height can be comfortably sit behind me without knee touching to the drivers seat.Space  is enough and drive is very comfortable.Interiors are above average.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox It gives an ultimate comfort and pleasure  in driving for both  city and heighway.my daily driving is 120 to 140 km, this includes both city and heighway. Iam getting 14.5 to 15.5km per litre.[more in city.using only normal petrol]. Average/litre can be improved in careful driving.Manza,Dezire does not deserve any comparison with this mechine.this is a 1496cc engine and one should compare the same with like mechine only. Gear shifting is very smooth and pickup is excellent. Thanks for Toyota for the excellent ride quality and smooth handling.Diesel car is more economical for me but No diesel car  can match  the performance ,comfort and quality of toyota.

Final Words If the budget is below 10lakh, Etios is the best option.

 

Areas of improvement Should have electronic OVRM. Hand rest for driver and back seat passenger.
