టయోటా ఇతియోస్ [2013-2014] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

 

Exterior - awesome,it looks to be avery high class luxary sedan.which actually it is not

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good only. space and comfort are  very good-praiseworthy

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox   engine is powerfull but fuel economy is average.i booked the car not yet driven. I am making these observations only by inspecting the car thoroughly as I have sufficient knowledge about the cars.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Very good and enjoyable.i can recommend to other persons for this car as it is good value for money.moreover it is a toyota product so reliability ,performance and quality can be expected

 

Final Words It is very much superior than other cars of its class. no other car of this class has such a powerfull engine with 1500cc engine,its bhp should have been more than 100.

 

Areas of improvement Interior requires improvement. black colour does not impress.front seats head rest is continuos part of the sets which do not give good look

 

good style ,comfort space, great out look outshinning many other cars priced higherfront seats design and dash board

Exterior: A really good looking sedan .Serene bluish silver colour is the best.Bumper protection units enhance the look.Alloy wheel looks better than the toyota corolla.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Great space .Infact more spacious than Toyota corolla.Boot space is much more than that of Corolla.Very comfortable seat and lot of leg space.Spedo meter location at the centre looks great.AC is simle but really efficient

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Engine design ia also great.Lean construction,light weight and most fuel efficient in that class.It develops peak power and torque at relatively lower rpm.Gear transmission is very smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling: Low turning circle, good power steering and high driving position makes Etios very efficient in Ride and handling.

Final Words: At Rs.7.38 lakh the V model of Toyota Etios has the best possible features.

Areas of improvement: It is already a well thought off and meticulously designed car.No more improvement is needed.Only the price line be held.

It is a dream car for the middle class.It has best possible features for the priceNothing negative worth mentioning

 

I had booked the car on the second day of launch, without even having a look of it. For me it was the brand TOYOTA which gave that confidence. Today I went to the showroom to have a first look at the car.

I am not an expert in writing reviews. I have just given my first impressions about the car and it is my personal opinion. Just have a look  at the car to approve or disapprove my views.

 

Exterior Very good. Spend another 40-50 K and can make it completely stunning.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) On expected lines.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Did not test drive.

 

Ride Quality & Handling No Idea!

 

Final Words Etios is surely the car is real paisa vasool, family car. One can blindly go for it considering TOYOTA brand and the price tag. Fuel economy what Toyota claims if is true would be a boon for money minded people like me. Service, availability of spares etc should not be a problem .For me though it was love at first sight.

 

Areas of improvement Interiors, rear seat space comfort, seat Height adjustability, colours.

 

Decent style, Features which are adequate and used in normal day to day conditions, Value for moneyLess spacious (especially for rear passengers) interiors could have been even more flashy

 

Exterior Extriors of this car are very good except from the back. The front and side look are be very delightful. My first view over the catlog met my heart. When I saw thw the front grill I thought its Inova. The only thing which I didnt like was the rear lights.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) When I sat inside the car I got the feeling that I was sitting in a car worth 8 lk. At this rate better features than this cant be availed. All the people who say that it ha nano type looks are definately blind. It is equally spacious as Linea or Honda City.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The performance of the car is so smooth that can be felt even while sitting on the passener seat. With great fuel capicity no & and such a smooth engine it is lovely to drive.

 

 

Final Words Such a spacious sedan is not available at 6 lk. All those who dont like it dont have a good taste or are idiots.

 

Areas of improvement The rear head lights can be furthur improved.

 

Spacious, Stylish ,Inova type look from front & best featuresLogan type rear look , papery speedometer

 

 

Exterior FRONTAL VIEW RESEMBLES INNOVA,WHICH DOESN'T MAKE HEADS TURN(INNOVA IMAGE AS PRIVATE CAB). BUT BODY LINE IS VERY SMOOTH(UNLIKE SWIFT D'ZIRE) AND ONE CANNOT IGNORE THE PRESENCE. TAIL LAMPS CLUSTER IS PLEASING.EXTRA BREAK LIGHT BEHIND REAR SEATS AS STD. FEATURE IS GOOD IDEA. NO. PLATE LOCATION AT THE BOTTOM OF BOOT LOOKS A BIT ODD.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) BOOT SPACE IS THE BEST AMONG ST COMPETING SEDANS(US BOUND TRAVELER CAN COMFORTABLY PUT ALL HIS/HER BAGGAGE & STILL HAVE SOME SPACE LEFT).ONE OF THE REVIEWER HAD COMPLAINED ABOUT LEG ROOM FOR REAR SEATS, PARTICULARLY WHEN FRONT SEAT IS PUSHED BACK TO EXTREME.WHILE THIS MAY LOOK LIKE A REASONABLE REVIEW BUT FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT EVEN 6'ER DOESN'T NEED TO PUSH HIS SEAT BACK THAT MUCH SINCE HE ALREADY HAS MORE THAN ADEQUATE LEG ROOM IN FRONT IT-SELF.REAR SEATS CAN COMFORTABLY SEAT 3 LARGE ADULTS.MIDDLE IS COZY DUE TO  NEAR FLAT BOTTOM.

EXTRA COOLED GLOVE COMPARTMENT IS VERY THOUGHTFUL IDEA AND SO IS THE CONVENIENT LOCATION OF 7 BIG BOTTLE/CUP HOLDERS.

LOCATION OF ALL 4 SPEAKERS IN FRONT IS NOT ALL THAT GREAT. SIMILARLY LOCATION OF INSTRUMENT PANEL @ CENTRE IS NOT CONVENTIONAL. PERHAPS THIS AFFORDS A GOOD ROAD VISION. TILTING STEERING WHEEL IS USEFUL SINCE AT ITS LOWER POSITION IT BECOMES VERY INCONVENIENT FOR THE DRIVER TO GET IN.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox VERY POWERFUL ENGINE.THOUGH I DIDN'T TAKE 0-100 TEST, I COULD EASILY SHIFT TO HIGHER SPEEDS IN BUSY CITY TRAFFIC.GEAR SHIFT IS SMOOTH AND SHIFT TO LOWER GEARS IS ALSO EASY. ENGINE APPEARS NOISY AT HIGHER RPM AND ONE COULD FEEL & HEAR THE NOISE INSIDE THE CABIN.SALES PERSON INFORMED THAT AFTER RUNNING IN THE ENGINE WILL BECOME SMOOTH. IF NOT TOYOTA WILL HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT INSULATING THE CABIN BETTER. TOO EARLY TO JUDGE FUEL ECONOMY BUT PROMISE OF 17 KM/L FOR A SEDAN IS ASSURING. SINGLE VIPER APPEARS ODD FOR LARGE SEDAN BUT IT WOKS EFFICIENTLY.   

 

Ride Quality & Handling RIDING WAS VERY SMOOTH. COULD NEGOTIATE SPEED BREAKERS WITHOUT DISCOMFORT IN THE CABIN.STEERING IS RESPONSIVE AND COULD EXECUTE SHARP TURNS WITH EASE. WOULD LOOK FORWARD TO DRIVING ON EXPRESS-WAY.

 

Final Words AFTER COMPARING WITH TATA MANZA & SWIFT D'ZIRE, AND TEST DRIVING ETIOS, I HAVE ALREADY BOOKED ETIOS-G. LONG WAIT LIST IS BIT OF DAMPENER THOUGH, BUT I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO DRIVING MY OWN ETIOS. VERY GOOD FAMILY SEDAN AND WITH TOYOTA'S INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED QUALITY STANDARD IT IS BEST VALUE FOR YOUR MONEY.

 

Areas of improvement SOMETHING MUST BE DONE TO ENGINE NOISE AT HIGHER RPM IN CABIN. INSIDE PLASTIC FINISH & TONE CAN BRIGHTEN UP THE INTERIOR.SHIFTING 2 SPEAKERS TO BACK SPACE WILL IMPROVE AUDIO EXPERIENC.

 

 

value for moneyinteriors should be more sporty

 

Exterior Good looking exterior, though with not a next generation car looks. But defintely I feel 100% better than the DZire and Manza. A change from existing looks of feista and SX4 (boring for 5 years).

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Quite spacious width, leg rooms & boot. Interior quality can be improved a bit, ergonimcally desgined interiors and quite comfortable. Very powerful AC.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent pickup, plesant city driving with smooth steering, FE yet to measure. Power is good. Gearshift is very smooth.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Smooth handling and excellent quality of ride. Not taken for a longdrive yet, but city driving and handling is very comfortable.

 

Final Words Excellent value for money car. Toyota did the right way to compromise little on interiors rather than engine and safety. Best in the segement. If you are looking for great interiors and more power, then go for something else and spend 2 Lakhs more.

 

Areas of improvement Interior material (especially dashboard) quality.

 

Smooth steering, spacious, pickupInterior material quality

 

Exterior I have taken the delivery of the car car on gudi padwa day the exteriors as such is pretty good the only change i made to my exteriors is the front bumper grill as i have taken black colour car the front grill with full steel metal is really giving the car look like a corolla altis.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors were pretty ordinary so what i did is changed the interiors completely giving it a very much luxorious look from within i.e a dual tone body interiors ,leather seats,dual tone steering having leather cover & a few more things which made the car look very luxurios from inside.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very good.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent.

 

Final Words I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND BUY THIS CAR WITH A FEW CHANGES TO BE DONE IN THE INTERIORS FOR SURE AS I MYSELF HAVE DONE & YOU WILL BE DEFINITELY GETTING A CAR AS LUXORIOUS AS HONDA CITY, VENTO, LINEA & THAT TO CHEAPER THAN THESE MENTIONED CARS. GO AHEAD BUT CHANGE THE INTERIORS EVEN AFTER SPENDING ON INTERIORS YOUR CAR PRICE WILL BE MUCH LESS THAN THE CARS MENTIONED.

 

Areas of improvement NA.

 

good exteriors,good style ,very excellent boot space,good fuel economyinteriors pretty ordinary

 

Exterior The Toyota Etios is Very well propotioned  & looks like a proper Big Sedan,  The Build Quality is like Every Japanese manufacturer ( Toyota, Honda , Suzuki ) & is Light but extremely well built. The paint quality is Excellent & shines very well. The Front view is very friendly & smiling , the rear view is good with beautiful tail lamps & a nice chrome strip. even the side view is very well propotioned. The Boot space is very huge & can take suitcases of entire Army !!  Overall the Car has excellent exteriors.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort The Etios Has Excellent cabin Space with huge Legroom for Passengers , The Seats are very Comfortable & offer good support.  The AC is very powerful & cooled the cabin fast even in Hot Mumbai Summer !!  All controls are ergonomically placed & are within drivers reach , The music system is above average, The cabin feels good even during long drives & The Car feels like a True Big Car !!

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Japanese Cars always have superb Engines & the Toyota Etios too has a smooth 1500cc unit that produces 89-90Bhp with 132Nm Torque, The car weighs about 900kgs & hence the Power to weight Ratio is Excellent & the Car has damn good Pick up & top speeds !!  The Engine is tuned for good Safe & stable family driving with priority being Good Fuel economy. The car si good fun to drive with good acceleration & pick up.  I am currenty getting overall Fuel economy of 16kmpl which the company says after 1st service will be 17.5kmpl.  The Gearbox is smooth & easy to use, The clutch is Light & is joy to use. Overall Full marks for engine , economy & gearbox.

 

Ride Quality & Handling The Ride Quality of The Car is excellent & is much better than Manza , dzire & Logan !!  I drive the car on pot-holed roads of Mumbai as well as smooth expressway & the Car rides well on both surfaces at all speeds. The passengers get full comfort on all roads. The handling is like it is on all family sedans which is stable & safe. Overall the car gives good Ride & handling & passengers feel fresh even after long drives.

 

Final Words The Etios is an Excellent car from Toyota & is ideal sedan for Indian families. I was very surprised to see some people critisizing the car on this website but then I realised that its because they have high expectations from toyota , they are complaining about lack of climate control , music system quality & all but tell me honestly how many people have climate control or music player in car as priority ?? The normal Family man expects well Bulit Car with good reliable Engine , good Economy & good service which Toyota provides.  if some other car had some minor flaws then no one would would complain but from toyota they expect 100% perfection ! its like if normal batsman scores 40 runs then we are happy but from Sachin Tendulkar we expect century everytime he bats !, similarly The Toyota Etios is the Sachin Tendulkar of Cars & is way superior too all other cars in this segment.  If you are getting a Toyota in 6 Lakhs then why the hell would anyone put Money in a Maruti or Tata car ??.   I Own a Golden Toyota Etios & am very happy with it, I fully & honestly recommend the Car too everyone, The Joy of owning a Toyota is truly Magical !!

 

Areas of improvement Excellent Car in all Respects... maybe Plastic quality can be Improved a bit... but overall a superb car !!

 

Good Engine , Superb economy , Huge Space , Big Boot , Toyota ReliabilityCabin plastics

 

Toyota have their winner here. I have been owning and driving the Etios for more than 500 kms now and it seems to fly. Superb comfort and handling, smooth engine - I had read some reviews in the past that there is excessive engine noise, but after using it myself, I see that is not true in my case, or I have been an exception and have been  lucky to have a great engine. I once tried switching on the engine in a signal light when the engine was still on, that can give you an idea of how noiseless it is. The steering controls are cool too, apart from the fact that it is a great steering. Driving is very confortable as well. Easily fits in 5 adults. When I test drove the Etios, I thought the doors needed to close more elegantly than it did, but Toyota has fixed that issue by introducing a rubber beading, perhaps that's another reason why the insulation has gotten better.

I would definitely recommend this car, it's inexpensve (relatively to Hoinda City) - however giving the same/better ride quality. Any comparisons to the down and out Tata Manza, etc will only be done by folks that are unfortunate to have already bought and are stuck with Manza.

For about 8.1 lakhs on road, I feel like I have got all that I ever wanted in a car. (Just wast to let you all know  that i cancelled my Honda City booking once I test drove the Etios - saved 3 lakhs :)) --- Thanks Toyota.

 

Conmfort, easy to drive, great power steering, features, value for moneyInteriors could be better - the speedometer display to be specific
