A fantastic car

I HAVE PURCHASE ETIOS LIVA PETROL 'V' VARIENT IN DECEMBER 2016, HAS DRIVEN IT FOR 2500 KMS.

Exterior MY RED COLOUR LIVA LOOKS SPORTY,ATTRACTIVE. I M SATISFIED WITH ITS LOOK.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) SPACE & COMFORT IS PROBABLY BEST IN CLASS. 3 PEOPLE CAN BE EASILY ACCOMODATED IN BACK SEAT WHICH HAS 3 ADJUSTABLE HEADRESTS & TRANSMISION TUNNEL HUMP IS  KEPT VERY MINIMUM FOR BETTER COMFORT. DASH BOARD IS SIMPLE YET SOLID & FUNCTIONAL. LOTS OF STORAGE SPACE ARE PROVIDED ALL AROUND THE CABIN & 1 LTR BOTTLE HOLDER IN ALL DOOR WILL ENHANCES THE COMFORT LEVEL. BOOT SPACE IS VERY GOOD CONSIDERING ITS A HATCHBACK.

ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES COVERED IN BASE VARIENT ITSELF. INSTRUMENTATION IS MINIMUM AS COMPARED TO HUNDAI & OTHER CARS, BUT IT IS OPTIMUM. MUSIC SYSTEM IS ORDINARY.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox PETROL ENGINE IS VERY PEPPY & RESPONSIVE. ITS SPORTY EXHAUST WILL MAKE ENJOY DRIVING. FUEL ECONOMY IN CITY-12 KM/LTR, HIGHWAY-17 KM/LTR OVERALL IT IS -15 KM/LTR. GEAR BOX IS VERY SMOOTH PROVIDES SHORT & ACCURATE GEAR SHIFTS.

Ride Quality & Handling RIDE QUALITY IS SURELY BEST IN CLASS. STEERING IS SUPER SMOOTH AT LOW SPEEDS & ITS QUITE ACCURATE AT HIGH SPEEDS. IT HAS CONSIDERABLE BODYROLL SO FAST CORNERING AT CURVES IS NOT COMFOTABLE.

Final Words ITS A FANTASTIC CAR.

Areas of improvement MUSIC SYSTEM SHOLD BE REPLCED WITH A TOUCH SCREEN SYSTEM HAVING OPTION OF CONNECTING REVERSE CAMERA. OTHERWISE PLEASE PROVIDE OPTION OF PLACING A REVERSE CAMERA, DISPLAY SYSTEM IN INSIDE REAR VIEW MIRROR POSITION & TO BE COVERED IN TOYOTA GENUINE ACCESERIES PACKAGE. PRESENTLY NO SUCH OPTION EXISTS, IF WE INSTALL IT FROM OUTSIDE SHOP THEN THEY TELL WARRANTY WILL BE HAMPERED.
