TOYOTA ETIOS

 

Exterior Exterior is very good.  Looks are very attractive.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior are not matching with brand name 'TOYOTA'  Seats are thin and looks very bad.  More worst is the combined head-rest.  Q-Class of the seats have been ignored.  Head Rest should be separate abd breadth/size of the seats should be as in other sedan cars. Speedometer is in the centre.  Indians are not used to this type of speedometer.  This feature may dent re-sale value of the car. Paper sheet pasted inside the Car and in the luggage box is of very inferior quality. In totality there is nothing like Q-Class in interiors of the Car.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine perofrmance is good. Driveability of the Car is very good. Shock absorver are just satisfactory. Gearbok is Very good. Fuel Economy claimed by the Co. is 17.6 but could not be tested.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Very Goot, Very Good.

 

Final Words THE TOYOTA COMPANY SHOULD MATCH THE INTERIORS OF ETIOS WITH ITS 'ALTIS-COROLLA'. WITH THE IMPROVED INTERIORS, THE 'ETIOS' CAN GIVE A BIG DENT TO OTHER CARS IN THIS SEGMENT.  IT CAN EVEN GIVE A BIG JOLT TO HONDA-CITY. EARNESTLY THE TOYOTA SHOULD RE-VISIT INTERIORS OF 'ETIOS' THE COMPANY SHOULD SPEND A LITTLE LESS ON ADVERTISEMENT AND LITTLE MORE ON INTERIORS.
