டொயோட்டா எட்டியோஸ் [2014-2016] யூசர் ரிவ்யுஸ்

While buying car from any brand is obviously always good but Driving is comfortable even for long journey. No other car of this segment gives so much head room leg room & thigh support & comfortable specially at back seat. It remind the back seat comfort of Ambassador car. Servicing & Maintenance has no issue. Look wise it's good specially from back side look is excellent. 3 issues It lags till 1,500-1,700 rpm after that it shoots like bullet Steering & Gear nob gets faded Headlights after sometime gets foggy & has to clean occasionally

Exterior Nice outlook with just two body arches, smiling grill and hexagonal boot(which is quiet big too).

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Seats are pretty comfortable, good space, quiet powerful AC, good music sound and nice chubby holes all around making a family trip comfortable. Morehow should give arches in back seat(which is quiet flat) and the armrest.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is the great plus point. Even the noise it produces makes energetic.. As you push hard you feel car running forward ahead preety fast. Pickup is plus point 0 to 100 in 12-14sec. And when you give a down shift it gives a power punch.. And all power comes in early 3800rpm. And the sound when you push hard is pleasent. Fuel efficiency is 15-17kmpl in city and easy 20+kmpl on highway on AC.

Ride Quality & Handling Great ride quality. Car is pretty stable. No feel of body roll. Sterring is awesome. Better than hyundai suzuki honda any and so is gear box.

Final Words Great car. Both for family and for personal drive. Dont go paper written 68ps 

Areas of improvement Interior and body build.

Great space, comfortable seats, good leg roomPlastic quality, body could be strong and heavy

Exterior Rid height is too high. Paint easily gets chipped-off and too thin, Some of the styling looks like the Honda Civic (ES).

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is spacious, Seats are not comfortable should have followed the design of Vios, Cluster gauge have recalls.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is not that bad a little bit higher fuel consumption compared to Vios. Etios = 12-2km/l, Vios = 15-16km/l. this was tested on the same driving condition and highway.

Gearbox is terrible even if it is brand new. 1st to 5th gear it can shift smoothly but when it comes to reverse there is a crunching/grinding noise of the gears. Even if you double clutch which is stated in the owner's manual or shifting it to 1st gear then reverse gear still have the same crunching/grinding noise of the gears. I brought this up to the service centre and adjusted the clutch twice and the problem does still exists. The Foreman, Technical Personnel and Service Manager just scratched their heads and told us that they can't do anything about it.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality & handling is good.

Final Words Overall the car is BAD. There are other low cost car that is far more better than Toyota Etios.

Areas of improvement   Gearbox (reverse gear to be specific) they could have design it in such a way it can be shifted smoothly. Give it a more comfortable seats Toyota.

Not bad for a low cost car.Crunching Noise of the reverse gear

Exterior Good 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Not upto the expectations

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good.

Ride Quality & Handling Good.

Final Words If improves the after sales service then can think of buying a toyota for second time if not will not buy or recommend any one.

Areas of improvement I have purchased etios gd from harsha toyota hyd in march 2014. they dont deliver your vehicle on your convinent time or the time which they have promised. it can be delayed for a day to but not surprise in it.when you want to buy accessories then they will recommend or take you to the d-graded accessories. and they will give dupilicate accessories as complimenrty which they have promised at the time of delivery that to after a long follow up after months. the sales gm is very worst who makes false promises. now coming to service the customer care manager at kondapur and service manager at lb nagar gouda are the worst people who says please dont buy toyota and bother us. if u give ur car for interior cleaning then they will deliver your car with water in it and then they will blame the delivery driver for that. they could rectify the seat hight adjustment issue since an year. there are some people who helped me in some instances. But most of the harsha toyota is worst in customer services and some thmes they say it is not BMW to give you high class service for the money. They make you to buy a package called usmile but the exact meaning behind it is ucry wesmile. at the end they will appolizise you and they wiil say this will not repeat again and will give discounts and extra benifits in your next purchse. but the time comes to new purchase they will say this the best we can do and ntg els we can do. but the prices are abit high with them when compaerd to other delars.they will not give u any thg. finaly they are the big cheaters in the market.

space and comfort and durabilitybad interiors, makes noise, mud flaps touches the ground and quality of products need to be improved

loved one to loved this.... stylish and smoothiee cool on drive perfect space for people comfortable.... when its drive easily and nicely.... i want to secure and goodness on buying...

Exterior

The car has elegant looks specially when seen sideways. One turn off is the empty space between the tyres and body of the car whcih looks a bit awkward but over all the car is capable of commanding a presence and bolstering the owner's self esteem! The grill could have been better as it gives the car a docile look!

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Space is excellent...leg room / space...shoulder room / space...everything. The boot space is huge and makes the owner proud as we hardly see this capacity in competitor's products.

The car ranks well on comfort though nothing exceptional. With the adjustable steering, the driver can change his stance / posture. It offers the very basic features with the exception of glove box cooling which can be helpful at times. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Engine is powerful, pickup is good. I drove in Shimla region as well as the hilly areas of Uttarakhand but never found the car short of power. In Petrol, the avergae is city was close to 17 a litre which is decent. 

Gear box is smooth but when you get the car to movein 1st gear, it can be jerky at times

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride quality is good. I can assess that with the comfort level of my family: parents, wife and kids...they are a satisfied lot! I feel like riding a horse that is very much in control and in sync with the jockey so handling has not been a problem. 

Final Words

I would say a must have in your stable...qualifies well for a city as well as a long distance car...makes the owner proud. If I have to reconsider this decision that I took in 2011, I will go for it again. i am saying this after clocking almost 26500 km and 4 services later. A low maintenance and zero tantrums vehicle!

 

Areas of improvement  

Paint and rubber quality is one and the body should have been sturdier even if it meant compromising a bit on the fuel efficiency...

 

Price, Space, LooksStrength, Finishing

Exterior

 Good but very Light body

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Good.Space and comfort are real assets of this car. You wont believe the boot space and driving comfort. Take this on long drive and you wont feel tired.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Worst Mileage no Consisitancy. Engine quality is superb as compared to its compititors and can even give higher end 10Lac cars a run for their money.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Good.

Final Words

 Good vehicle but very poor mileage of 12-16 Kmpl on Highways and 10 Kmpl inside city. Whenever approached Servive Centre first they said I will get 25Kmpl and later they said after 2000 Kms I can get But even after 5000 kms I am still getting 12-16 Kmpl only. The fuel meter(Digital) has 10 divisions but there again it is not propperly designed How do I get to reach Toyota Technical executives. I would be very happy if a Toyota person meets me in this regard.

Areas of improvement  

 Mileage commitment by company is not on Road only on paper.

 

Good Style and very spacious for FiveWorst Mileage no consisitancy varying between 12 to 16 Kmpl on Highways

Exterior LOOKS FINE.THE FRONT GRILL HAS SLIGHTLY COPIED FROM ELDER BROTHER COROLLA ALTIS.IT COMES WITH CLEAR LENS HEADLAMPS.TOP END VARIANT ONLY CONTAINS CHROME GARNISH AND ALLOY WHEELS.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) ONLY TOP END VARIANT CONTAINS STEERING MOUNTED AUDIO CONTROLS AND MUSIC PLAYER, NO REAR ARM REST,ELECTRICALLY ADJUSTABLE BUT NOT RETRACTABLE.SPACE AND WIDTH WAS AWESOME IM 6FOOT TALL BUT KNEE ROOM WAS STILL GOOD AFTER I RESTED IN A GOOD POSITION.A/C WAS FINE BUT LACK IN AUTOMATIC CLIMATE CONTROL.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox ENGINE PERFORMANCE IS NOT UPTO THE MARK BUT STILL CAN BE QUOTED AS OPTIMAL.GEARBOX WAS BUTTERY SMOOTH.FUEL ECONOMY WAS NOT TESTED BECAUSE I TOOK A TEST DRIVE.SUSPENSION AND GROUND CLEARANCE WAS GOOD FOR INDIAN ROADS.

 

Ride Quality & Handling RIDE QUALITY WAS OK THE CAR IS STICKING TO THE TARMAC.IT HAS A GOOD BODY STRUCTURE FOR SAFTEY PURPOSE.HANDLING WAS GOOD.

 

Final Words SAFTEY UPLIFTED.ENGINE POWER AND INTERIOR FEATURES WAS COMPROMISED.

 

Areas of improvement  TOYOTA MUST IMPROVE INTERIOR FEATURES TOO SUCH AS AUTO A/C, REAR CAMERA,REAR CENTRE ARM REST,REAR A/C VENTS ETC,.

 

 

GOOD ENGINE,GOOD BOOT SPACE,GOOD KNEE ROOM FOR 6 FOOT + PEOPLE,AIRBAGS FROM ENTRY LEVEL VARIANTENGINE LACKS THE PUNCH,NILL FEATURES FOR TOP END VARIANT TOO

Good Exterior.

Good Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I have a Toyota Etios 2017 model which has done 12000 KMS, All service and minor repairs done at GLobe services only.

Worst  Gearbox, Ran down after 12k Km, toyota is having car from 16/07/2017 and they are just forwading dates and issue not resolved yet. Bought car from Globe Toyota, Mohali. Whenever we are going there they are just forwarding thye dates and nothing is being resolved. Only 3 months have passed till car has been bought such bad experience from Toyota will not recomend it to anyone. This car is being used for corporate use and these faults are leading to losses for person is earning on its behalf. Recommend not to buy etios fro Toyota as it is worst vehicle to buy and to spend money on it.

Bad Ride Quality & Handling Service is worst. Service associates do not have manners to talk and they are treating as if car has been bought free from them.
