About the Toyota Vitz

If you are thinking about importing a small hatchback to Kenya, you have probably considered the Toyota Vitz. The Vitz is probably the most popular subcompact hatchback in the country and has existed for three generations or two decades. It is not surprising as the Toyota Vitz is comfortable, affordable, and fuel-efficient. It has also evolved over the years in terms of aesthetics and performance to beat the competition. The Vitz has attained significant racing pedigree following partnerships with Toyota Gazoo Racing for the World Rally Championship. This and other enhancements have made the Vitz what it is today. Read on to learn more about the Toyota Vitz.

What are the main features of the Toyota Vitz?

The modern version of the Vitz has a more angular setting than the previous versions. It is also longer and wider, making it appear to be sporty. Standard attributes include alloy rims, a two-fold glove compartment, a cassette player, airbags, and smart stop controls. When it comes to safety, the Toyota Vitz does not disappoint as well as customers are treated to ABS, TRC, curtain airbags, and SRS airbags.

How spacious is the Toyota Vitz?

The Toyota Vitz is comparatively spacious and similar to other subcompact hatchbacks within the same class. There are two rows, and it can comfortably fit four tall adult passengers with a maximum of five. For example, within the first row, the legroom is enough for those in front. In the second row, the head and legroom is practical as well, but it would be best for short commutes in urban centers and suburbia. At the back, the models made after 2010 offer at least 325 liters of boot space, and over 1400 liters of space when the rear seats are folded down.

Is the Toyota Vitz fuel efficient?

Depending on its model year or trim level, the Toyota Vitz may be had with any of three engine options: a 1.0 liter 4-cylinder petrol, a 1.3-liter 4-cylinder petrol, or a 1.5-liter 4-cylinder petrol producing 70, 89, and 108 horsepower, respectively. Both the regular 1.0 liter and 1.3 liter models may deliver up to 21 km/liter, but the 1.3 liter models which feature start-stop technology may deliver even up to 25.0 kilometers per liter. The higher capacity 1.5 liter engine may offer 18-19 km/ liter. Worth noting is that the AWD models are a bit less fuel efficient than the FWD models.

What is the ground clearance of the Toyota Vitz?

The ground clearance of the Vitz is 145 mm, which is quite low compared to sedans and coupes, though the competitors like the Mazda Demio and the Suzuki Swift have a higher number. That means it may be hard to drive the Vitz on less than stellar roads and several in the country have many potholes. The Vitz is definitely not the best option to go upcountry and should be relegated to inner-city travel.
