టయోటా ఇతియోస్ [2014-2016] వినియోగదారుల రివ్యూలు

Well I bought Etios G petrol car on 1st May 2015. Now crossed 2000 km and writing the review. Etios is well balanced perfect family sedan car. If you does not worry about mileage and fancy items better consider Etios in your new car list. Its a best car from trusted & world toppest car maker.

Exterior

• Outside body doesn't have any stylish curve but have a decent & elegant look. front grille with crome insert and rear crome insert looks awesome. 
• Door handle looks odd & small children can easily open the door if unlocked.
• 15" wheel makes good performance on patholes
• Foldable antenna, rear defrogger does their good job
• Fog lamp & electric ORVM not included in G version.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

• Decent, Neat, simple look. not having any fancy items.
• Beige interior color makes more space and elegant look
• Dual tone dashboard are good, the plastics are sold & better life
• Seat comforts are best. You will not get tired on longer trips
• Steering wheel is well balanced design provies good grip on driving.
• Central console initialy does not look good but used to live with it.
• Speedometer with blue background looks elegant.
• Does not have miles to empty & fuel efficiency indicator.
• Digital fuel level indicator not proportionated properly.
• Digital meters looks like a school childern digital watch.
• Music system not included but 2 front ,2 rear speakers & 2 tweeters installed. its a welcome addition (older models doesn't have rear speakers). Speakers are OK . Can not provide rocking sound from pioneer player. But more than enough for normal use.
• Boot space & bottle holders are remarkable. can not beat by any competitor.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

• Engine is best in class. Pulled my engine upto 140 kmph on Highway after 1500km odo. Good performance. Solid engine from toyota.
• Mileage is not upto the competitor. i'm getting avg 15 kmpl on highway (avg 80 - 90 km speed)
• superb gearbox ratio. In 3rd gear provdes very good speed range.

Ride Quality & Handling

• Steering is very light you will not get tired on long drive, best design from toyota. 
• Clutch & brakes are very smooth (tried in diesel variant they are hard).
• Upto 100 kmph easiliy can drive the car, good stability even from light weight car.
• At 140 kmph loaded with 4 person, stability is ok but under control.
• Tyre & engine noise inside cabin is greatly reduced from older versions. but not upto other competitors. 
• Suspension is great. for ground clearance i will say till now didn't hit on any speed breaker even at 10kmph.
• ABS - EBS not included in G version. But toyota must install in all varient.

Final Words As said before, Etios is sold true sedan car with some minor disadvantages.

Areas of improvement Toyota must improve the engine to get better mileage. Cabin noise should be reduced to zero level. Digital meters & indicators must be fully replaced by high quality elegant look digital meters with more funtion. Door handles should be repalced with pull type handles.

Exterior Looks are subjective, but I adore the Etios' business looks. It will age well with time, not like Hyundai cars that don't age well. Make sure you get the double chrome front grill as it looks majestic. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) They are simple and functional. Nothing is designed to break after few years of operation. The car is not brimming with useless features like Verna and XUV where things break apart after few months of use. I love the cool glovebox that keeps my drinks cool. I love how spacious the interior is - step in Dzire, Honda City, Verna and then into Etios to know what I am talking about - it has great leg room which makes it great for people travelling in the back. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is makkhan and so is the gearbox. Toyota knows how to make great and long lasting engines. I have seen many Etios with 6 lakh kilometers on the ODO and more with no problem at all. Have you ever seen a Hyundai or even a Honda doing that? 

Make sure you go for 'Q' service for getting the service done. These guys will do the service in mere 1-1.5 hour. You can chill in the AC room, watching everything from top. 

Ride Quality & Handling Suspension is excellent and so is the handling. The steering is very responsive. You will never feel tired after hours and hours of journey. I wish they gave armrest in driver seat as Etios is now an expensive car.

Business looks, Dependable Engine and Great ServiceNo armrest

I was purchased this in may2011 till date I have no problem. I am very happy with the performance of this product . Engine performance , boot space , internal cabin and ac cooling too good.
