Toyota’s new entry level Etios has arrived in South Africa
from India and will be available in May 2012. The Toyota Etios will be sold
alongside the Toyota Aygo and Toyota Yaris and will bolster Toyota’s grip in
the entry level market and will go head to head with the Volkswagen Polo Vivo.
Toyota Kirloskar Motors (TKM), the Indian affiliate of the
global Toyota Motor Corporation, is set to become a major exporter of Etios
vehicles with export volumes expected to exceed 20 000 units per year. The
Etios will be available as a hatchback or sedan and will be fitted with a
powerful 1.5 litre petrol engine. The interior is surprisingly spacious and ABS
Brakes and airbags will come standard with all models.
Value for money is the name of the game and the new Toyota
Etios is ready to play, with rumors floating around that the Etios will go for
around R120 000, what a bargain, let the games begin.
