The Toyota Vitz has a reputation for being extremely fuel efficient, and as such is a favourite among budget conscious drivers and those concerned about their carbon footprint. But typically, this efficiency comes with a price of power and performance, particularly in smaller engine versions. For some drivers, the Vitz is underpowered for highway driving or when loaded. Is the trade-off worth it? But does the money saved on fuel make up for the lack of oomph? Or do the Vitz limitations really become a problem sometimes? We will see the pros and cons of what must be considered a compromise between fuel efficiency and performance in this popular hatchback.
