Launch of the new 2023 Toyota Vios or Yaris Ativ in the Philippines

-
Image
The new-generation Vios is the one automobile that the market is unquestionably yearning for. Although the current style initially appeared in 2018, it was actually an improvement of the generation that made its debut in 2013. 9 years may not seem like a long time for frame-based cars (such as SUVs and pickup trucks), but in the context of passenger cars, that's a lifetime. Now that Toyota has released the first official preview for the next-generation Vios, we could have an answer. Toyota Motor Thailand is the company we're referring to, not Toyota Motor Philippines. Yes, they are allowing us to see the brand-new Vios for the first time.  Because of this, what is known as the Vios in the country is known as the Yaris Ativ there. The preview itself is really short—like a TikTok video of only 15 seconds. It shows a few glimpses of the new generation of cars with their market endorsers. And yeah, for a tiny car, it does look very hot. We can make out a grille that appears to be...

Toyota could be bringing the Toyota Yaris Cross to the Philippine market by 2021. These photos were taken in India.  It will be one of the last to arrive, in the summer of next year, in the fast growing segment of small SUVs from the city, but it has all the cards to become a top.  It is the Yaris Cross, a B-Suv, which inherits almost everything from the noble sister but is an entirely new product with greater ground clearance, intelligent front or all-wheel drive and the latest Toyota hybrid system.  Made in France, in Valenciennes, the Cross has more muscular and modern lines and keeps the same pace as the Yaris, but grows a little: more 240 mm in length (4,180 mm in total), plus 30 mm from the ground and 90 mm wide. It also improves accessibility to the load compartment, thanks to the rear split seats 40/20/40 and the possibility of adopting an automatic opening tailgate. Yaris Cross benefits from Toyota's fourth generation Full Hybrid Electric technology derived directly from t...
