Toyota Etios V Updates

Wednesday, 01 April 2020 08:17 PM Toyota has discontinued the Etios range in India, including the sedan, hatchback, and cross-hatch, as they will not be updated to meet the BS6 emission norms. This decision marks the end of an era for a model that was launched in 2011 and had seen several updates over the years. I believe this move is a strategic one, as Toyota focuses on more compliant and modern models.

Tuesday, 07 August 2018 07:44 PM Toyota introduced a limited edition of the Etios Liva hatchback with red accents, available in a white and black two-tone paint job. The petrol variant is priced at Rs. 6.50 lakh, while the diesel variant is priced at Rs. 7.65 lakh. I think these visual updates helped in giving the model a sportier look.

Friday, 06 July 2018 04:25 PM The Toyota Etios Liva Dual Tone variant received a new Inferno Orange color option, available in both petrol and diesel trim options. The prices for these variants range from Rs. 5.85 lakh to Rs. 7.44 lakh. I believe this color addition was a nice touch to keep the model appealing to younger buyers.

Thursday, 01 March 2018 06:14 AM Toyota launched the Etios Platinum Limited Edition in India, priced starting at Rs. 7.84 lakh for the petrol variant and Rs. 8.94 lakh for the diesel variant. This limited edition features a new paint scheme, dual-tone upholstery, and additional infotainment features. I think these updates were a good attempt to keep the model fresh before its eventual discontinuation.

Tuesday, 02 February 2016 10:10 AM The Toyota Etios hatchback achieved a 4-star frontal adult passenger safety rating in the Global NCAP crash test. This is a significant milestone for the model, highlighting its safety features. I believe this rating would have boosted consumer confidence in the vehicles safety.
