    Exterior Though every car is good and appreciation based on the induvidual perceptions and needs, It is not so easy that this design got japan's 2010 best design award.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) 5 passengers comfortable seating arrangements taking into consideration of long drives, the legroom of a sedan, the wheel base of 2550 mm for excellent stability and safety, the psycological approach to Airvents providing AC, less than 10 degree cool glove box for indians ,mostly driving in summer, Flat rear floor with excellent knee comfort ,shoulder comfort ,headroom optimum best,595 free spaced boot, blue ambience with centrally located meters assuring more safe driving control, accessories affordable at indian price with toyota quality, 36 accesories for desires fulfilment, the new steering wheel design with comfortable and sport handling, 7 cup holders for 5 passengers, the toyota standard seat with integrated headrest with totally new approach,the noiceless ambience inside that of a premium sedan, the driver area floor mat with clips for better safety, the latest Etios Zone at each dealership to appreciate all that best visually ,the self design making accesories fitment system of induviduals choice, shows that Toyota is one class above.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Smooth transistion with low and mid range torque , easy to manuover in city's bumber to bumber drive even at lowest speed without lag, the availability of 132PS @ 3000 RPM, 90PS@5600 RPM,of this india's first world's first etios engine sounds more interesting at this affordable price,the best warranty of 3 years or lakh kilometer,almost the optimum best in industry, the functions of cyliner head exhaust manifest for warming the engine, the resin developed intake for free flow of air for execellent breathing are the best of ETIOS to be proved during test drives.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling The McPhereson strut in front and Torson beam suspension in the rear really contribute the best for ride comfort known to car lovers, the best suitable for all indian roads,as claimed by toyota this premium version available for indians at their affordable best, the power steering effect at corners and slopes with turning radius of 4.9, make us feel that Toyota's claim for a Quality Ride of good worth. More so, almost 101 improvement points are taken care as per Chief engineer NoriTake with Etios, may not go wrong we believe.

     

    Final Words This Etios is going to be car for all need to upgrade to better sedan with Toyota association at this mid range price affordable to many indians to enjoy better ride comfort, travelling comfort and suitable for long term post purchase maintenance , thing toyota is known for in india from the days of Qualis.Infact i am very happy about the care taken to explain the vehicle with human touch by the sales team of dobro toyota, hyderabad who made me to write my review being enjoyed the full attention of sales team with whom i took almost 2 hours with various questions to help all others belonging to my society status, who are keen on value for money on each thing we buy. Thanks to Dobro toyota dealership for their best cooperation to educate me with ETIOS.

     

    Areas of improvement Disappointment on the non provision of vehicle for feel & touch once launched though compensated by the E-broacher toyota standard expalnation by sales officers when i visited the ETIOS ZONE being a middle class upgarding buyer , believes ever car is best of its own.   They should be more clear in delivery schedules ,may be the dealerships may not able to commit right now in this regard.   One thing i dont like is the rear tail lamp design which could be improved and instead if they come with some more commonly available extra features ,at this price, currently avilable with other car manufacturers in this touch competition. This is what my experience when approached for ETIOS ZONE and love to receive your valuable comments.

    I sincerely believe that Etios will not disappoint further on its value ,once we experience test drive.The rating given is based on the mental satisfaction i have received when visited ETIOS ZONE.Always hoping for the best for my society.
