All New Vios

The development of a new Toyota mid size sedan is not really unheard of, the Corolla Altis is a mega hit in India, the addition of Vios will build the diversity of the small yet premium mid size sedan segment in the country. The manufacturing process has started, and the arrival date is during the latter half of 2016. Vios is an exclusive launch, and there is so much excitement surrounding the vehicle. Representatives close to the company have said that the platform of Vios is inspired from Etios and is christened Etios Core or Etios C.

Etios C will be slated between Etios entry level sedan and the magnificent worldly fortune Corolla Altis. Toyota analyzed the feasibility outcome of the car in many sectors, and was firm with the decision to launch a mid size sedan few years ago itself. At the moment the known details are the construction of Etios C and its launch period. The company is working on the production of the car, and many more interesting details will surface later.

Toyota is the number one brand in the globe; the Indian unit does not have a strong sedan structure. Corolla is a best seller in the country and is in the most wanted luxury sedan list. The Indian subsidiary Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM), banked on Etios sedan to drive sales, although a fashionable sedan, the buying power with the car is not too significant. The hatchback variant of Etios, Liva is also not on the run. The company has made admirable fortunes in sport utility vehicle and multi-purpose vehicle market with Fortuner and Innova respectively.

The price range of mid-size sedan market is Rs 8 to 13 lakhs, it is not in the top selling segment range.

Over the past two to three years, there has been a voluminous demand for sport utility vehicles such as Mahindra XUV500, Ford EcoSport, Renault Duster and Nissan Terrano.

The mid size sedan in development is called Vios in markets of Southeast Asia, and is a blockbuster hit. The company never found a suitable medium to introduce the car in India. Vios is a high-tech luxury car and is among the most stylish in its segment and the interior fitments are first-rate. It is going to be a huge threat to Honda City.

New Toyota Vios

The higher C segment of India which houses many great mid-sized sedans such as the new Honda City and Hyundai Verna, is highly potential. A number of car makers are eyeing this very lucrative segment, including India’s leading car maker Maruti Suzuki which is planning to launch its Ciaz sedan very soon.

Looking at the scenario, the world’s largest car maker Toyota is also seriously considering this potential segment in India. Though Toyota is highly sought after in the global car markets, unfortunately in India it is not that popular. This Japanese car major’s Corolla mid-sized sedan is a tad too expensive and actually sits a segment higher that the C segment. Thus, it is known that Toyota is considering a new mid-sized sedan for India to sit just below the Corolla and fight with the likes of the new Honda City.

While some sources say that this new sedan from Toyota will be the Vios, while others say that it will be an entirely new sedan based on the Etios platform.

Now, According to a Japanese news journal, Toyota is contemplating to soon launch the Vios in India.

The company’s very capable and affordable Etios sedan has not been so popular owing to its plain design, and the rumor mills are churning that Toyota might phase out the Etios by 2020 to focus only on the Vios sedan, which is one of the primary rivals of the Honda City in other international markets.

As per the report, Toyota Motor plan to roll out about 50,000 Vios units per annum, at its twin production facilities in India.

However nothing has been officially confirmed by Toyota’s Indian counterpart, Toyota Kirloskar Motor. The company has already declared earlier this year that it is withdrawing its attention from the compact segments of India and will focus only on bigger cars in the country.

The current Toyota Vios is similar to the all new Corolla and new Camry in design terms. The Vious is powered by 1.5 liter petrol and a 1.4 liter diesel engine, both of which are mated to a 5 speed transmission gearbox.

If Toyota actually launches the Vios sedan in India, then it will be offered in both the petrol and diesel fuel options. The all new Honda City is the new leader of the Indian C segment overthrowing the Hyundai Verna from the top spot.

All New Vios

Etios is a popular sedan introduced four years ago, it is a sub compact sedan and the vision was to attract young and skilled working professionals. The car did not do too well and attracted only a section of buyers. It was overpowered by recent launches, Honda Amaze, Hyundai Xcent and Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire.

Vios is a luxurious sedan redefined and stellar global vehicle; it will surely stun the Indian crowd to the core. An Indian launch is definite, but Toyota has not yet formatted a strategy with regard to investment and production. The firm produces 50,000 vehicles on a yearly basis. Toyota will terminate the production of Etios by 2020 and it will be replaced by flourishing number of Vios cars.

A statement of Vios launch has not been exposed by Toyota Kirloskar Motor, what is known at the moment is the company’s goal to focus on bigger cars. It is not keen to push mass market vehicles, since the success output from Etios twins comprising of Etios sedan and Etios liva hatch is not too fruitful. Even today there are only a handful of buyers for the two cars.

The new Vios is a bang launch; it is in tune with Toyota’s fantastic luxury statement. The front fascia draws design inspiration from Camry and Corolla, and the engine fitments are pretty robust as well and the options are 1.4 litre diesel and 1.5 litre petrol. The two vehicles will be coupled with five speed manual gearbox.

Toyota has made spectacular profits with Vios in South East Asian segments; it will have elevated levels of lavishness and sit beneath Corolla. The company has been pondering about introducing the car to India for quite a while. Its most spoken about arch rival is the all new Honda City.

A Vios launch is not going to happen anytime soon, the expected arrival period is 2017. Toyota might formulate ways to throw away the Etios sedan by 2017, Etios has not gather sufficient consumer attention, Vios is expected to have a greater shine and will be more dazzling to the eye. The vehicle is covered with Toyota’s all new fashion statement observed on Camry and Corolla.

The thrilling luxury defining features to look forward to are imaginatively styled grille with solid chrome treatment, huge air dam, new nose and creative profile. The artistic LED daytime running lights is positioned below fog lights, the insides too are packed with vibrancy and grandeur in the form of beige and black colour theme, sporty dials arrangement and world class touchscreen. The interiors will have plenty of chrome treatment.

The forthcoming Vios is certainly a huge threat to Honda City; it will nevertheless be a close raging battle. We will have to wait to find out.

Toyota Motor, being the global car leader and a celebrated premium sedan maker is eager to take a piece of this profitable C-segment of India. Unfortunately, though Toyota is a super seller in the global car markets, in India it is not that a phenomenal success. Even the world’s most favorite sedan, the Toyota Corolla sells less in India. However, Toyota Kirloskar Motors, the Indian representative of the Japanese auto major is recently very pleased with the great response that the recently launched all new 2014 Corolla sedan is getting in India.

However, now recently as per a report it is known that Toyota is working on a new mid-size sedan in order to fight it out with the likes of the extremely popular Honda City and the Hyundai Verna. The speculations also suggest that Toyota may bring the popular Vios sedan to India, while it may also consider developing an entirely new sedan based on its versatile Etios platform. If a new sedan is really based on the Etios platform, then Toyota will have a total 4 vehicles in the Etios family, as it already has the Etios sedan, Liva hatchback and the Etios Cross based on the same platform.

However, some sources argue that Toyota will just bring the Vios to the Indian C-segment and not a new car. The Vios will be placed below the Corolla in India as in the international markets and will become a capable competitor to the C-segment of India. Nevertheless, the report also says that the Toyota Vios will launch sometime around in 2017 which is far away.

The Toyota Vios can give a good fight to the City and the Verna in terms of looks, as it will be the most aggressive looking car in Toyota India’s line-up. The new Vios has its design cues borrowed from the all new Corolla and the new Camry.

The Vios will get an aggressive front face with huge air vents, LED DRLs and great styling features that make it a stunning looker. The Honda City is also a very stylish new sedan, while the Hyundai Verna has always been superbly stunning while preparing to be more stunning.

In terms of interiors, the Vios will be pretty premium and lavishly comfortable again as per the competition with the City and Verna. The Vios will also be a feature-rich sedan to be equal with its rivals.

Thus, if the Toyota Vios really lands up in the Indian car market, then we will have yet another great sedan from Toyota just below the superb Corolla.

Toyota Vios is already being sold in the international markets. It is amongst the best selling sedans in Thailand. Toyota Vios could be a strategy from the Japs to tackle the hurdles set up by the South Koreas and their colleagues at Japan. Toyota is planning to launch the Vios in the Indian car market and we are expecting it to hit our shores by the second quarter of 2015. In order to attract customers Toyota has followed a new design philosophy for the Vios. It is elegant, it had to be as it’s a Toyota. But there is much more. It looks fantastic! It is certainly capable of turning more heads than you’d expect. The Toyota Vios has got very aggressive looking projector headlamps and the front chrome grille whose horizontal lines merge into the top of the headlamps makes the Vios one of the stylish looking cars. The rear end of the Vios features a well sculpted out boot lid and a set of impressive LED tail lights. Toyota Vios is a car which could be a fun car when you want it to be and at the same time it could be an elegant means of transportation which is Toyota’s expertise.

Toyota Vios would be coming to India in two engine options to choose from: a 1.8 litre Dual VVT-i petrol engine which will produces a max power of around 140 PS and a peak torque of 173 Nm. The other option would be a 1.4 litre turbocharged diesel engine which churns out 88.4 PS of max power and much greater amount of torque than the petrol variant. Toyota would also make available an option of choosing between a 7 speed CVT or a 6 speed manual transmission with the petrol variant. While the diesel engine will be mated to a 6 speed manual transmission only.

Toyota Vios might be the car which would help the company to jump over all the hurdles and give a good tough competition to the other sedans, especially, the Honda City and the Hyundai Verna. Toyota has done a good job with the Vios but it’s not over yet. Toyota knows our domestic car market and in order to win here Toyota has to put on a very aggressive price tag to the Vios which would then make the others tremble!

All New Vios

The Indian market will get even more mid ranged quality sedans, but the cool and very popular Vios will definitely have its advantages in India, given Toyota brand power and its global leadership in producing the best of reliable sedans.

As per the market experts, the Toyota Vios should have a price range of around Rs. 7 lakh to Rs. 11 lakh. The Vios thus, will be a direct competitor of the Honda City, Hyundai Verna Fluidic, Volkswagen Vento and the Skoda Rapid. Toyota Vios could prove to be the company’s next game changer in India.
