Reviewer's opinion
"With low running costs, solid underpinnings and a badge worth its weight in gold, we suspect that Toyota will find more sales success with the Vitz and that its 800 units-per-month goal is entirely possible."

What does it look like?
Exterior
Interior
What is the Toyota Vitz like inside?
The Toyota Vitz for a compact hatchback, has ample space inside to keep occupants in comfort even in the rear. There's a host of storage pockets and the necessary cupholders for everyone. The seats are finished in patterned fabric, there's gloss silver trim around the cabin and to top it all off an Infotainment centre at least in XR trim. The interior has enough buttons and features that wouldn't intimidate a new driver or someone renting this vehicle for just a weekend.
Style
The Toyota Vitz embraces the enterprising compact hatchback for the city and open road. The design is gentle and welcoming with its rain droplet style head and taillights and curvaceous lines. The front fascia is bright and neatly designed. The side profile is broad and in the XR trim at least, you get multi-spoke alloy wheels finished in gloss black. The rear tapers off a bit with gentle curves. The Toyota Vitz design is youthful and welcoming.
