Toyota Vietnam imports 3 new car models

Wigo is the “youngest” model, which debuted globally in 2013, developed primarily for emerging countries such as the Philippines and Indonesia. Despite being a newcomer to the compact-car segment, Wigo has gained success, achieving the No. 1 position in its class in major markets such as the Philippines and Indonesia. With its unique design, top of the line roomy interior, easy steering and fuel economy, Wigo is typically chosen by young customers for their daily urban commutes.

Two models of the Toyota Wigo 2018 were introduced: the 1.2AT and the 1.2MT with a 3NR-VE engine, four cylinders and 1.2 liter displacement. This engine delivers 86 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and reaches a maximum torque of 107 Nm at 4,200 rpm, delivering both powerful performance and optimal fuel economy. The MT model has a retail price of VND345 million, while the AT model has a retail price of VND405 million (VAT included).

Meanwhile, Avanza, a compact MPV, has sufficient space for 7 persons. Since its global launch in 2003, Toyota Avanza has become a best-selling car in the mid-size segment in Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand.

Avanza 2018 has two versions, the 1.5AT and 1.3MT. The 1.5AT grade offers a 4-speed automatic transmission and 1.5-liter four-cylinder 2NR-VE engine that produces 102 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 136 torque Nm at 4200 rpm. The 1.3MT version uses a five-speed manual transmission with a 1.3-liter 1NR-VE engine, providing 94 horsepower at 6000 rpm and a maximum torque of 121 Nm at 4200 rpm. It has a retail price ranging from VND537 million to VND593 million (VAT included).

Finally, Rush – the “eldest brother” – was first introduced in 1997. Along with Wigo and Avanza, Rush was developed mainly for emerging countries and holds a leading position in its segment in the Philippines, Indonesia, and Thailand. In the more than 20 years since it was introduced, Toyota Rush has released three generations and is now sold in more than 100 countries.

The highly efficient Toyota 2NR-VE engine, paired with Toyota’s latest technology VVT-i, optimized combustion chamber, lightweight moving parts and low friction piston, contributes to both excellent power and fuel efficiency. In addition, the aerodynamic design of the car’s exterior also provides smooth driving and contributes in reducing fuel consumption. The 1.5 AT Rush has a retail price of VND668 million (VAT included).
