Toyota AYGO 2012 (62) 1.0 VVTi Fire 3dr

Insurance Group 2, The Toyota Aygo is the smallest car in the Japanese manufacturers range, sitting below the Yaris supermini. It shares its mechanical underpinnings with the Citroen C1 and Peugeot 108, but comes with a far more distinctive look on the outside, with dramatic Xthemed design and plenty of colour options. The Aygo city car is available as fivedoor body style and has some stiff competition in the form of the Volkswagen Up, not to mention the Kia Picanto and Hyundai i10. The Aygo appeals with its bold exterior styling and suprisingly roomy interior (for such a small car), as well as a nippy drive and scope for personalisation. Dominating the look of the Toyota Aygo is the contrasting coloured X across the nose of the car, leading up towards the side windows. This is part of Toyotas aim to make the Aygo appeal to a younger clientele as the X and various other elements of the cars exterior and interior design can be customised.The interior is shared with the Aygos sister cars and is quite basic, though the standard 7.0inch colour XTouch infotainment screen does lift it a little. All the plastics are firm and resilient, but they feel wellassembled and are interestinglystyled.That Xtheme continues with the three Aygo specification grades available: XPlay, XTrend and XClusiv. Standard equipment includes LED daytime running lights, electric front windows, USB and auxin connections, aircon, Bluetooth, a reversing camera and a heightadjustable drivers seat. Under the Toyota Aygos bonnet is a modest 1.0litre, threecylinder petrol engine. Producing 72hp and 93Nm of torque, performance is adequate, and fine for city use. Beware, though, that itll quickly feel out of depth on motorways especially when heavily loaded. Sure, no city car is designed for highspeed cruising, but rivals such as the Volkswagen Up are more capable. Combined with the light subone tonne body, Toyota claims it will average between 53.357.6mpg with the manual gearbox, emitting 111120g/km of CO2 in the process. An automatic gearbox, known as XShift, is also available. Over the next few pages well be thoroughly reviewing all aspects of the Toyota Aygo and rating them in our verdict.
