Etios sedan and hatchback diesel variants slated to launch on September 9

The Toyota Motor Corp, the Japanese car monster had launched its Toyota Etios diesel hatchback in a petrol variant on June 27th, 2011. Though the news is floating around that the hatchback was incapable to be a magnet for the consumers, the approach the company had visualized, which could be because of the absence of the diesel variation in the Indian car market. Toyota is functioning forcefully to turn over the diesel variants of the Etios twins. According to the grapevine, it has been suggested that Toyota Etios diesel, and Toyota Etios diesel will commence in India on September 9, 2011.

The company has sky-scraping expectations from the diesel variants of the Etios twins. With the unstable petrol prices, the customers are picking up for the diesel variants of the car, for this reason the petrol variant single-handedly of the Toyota Etios Liva hatchback could not become the traffic dragger in the car market. To make the matter more difficult, Maruti India and Honda India had launched their individual hatchbacks, new Maruti Swift and the new Honda Jazz hatchback respectively to struggle against the Toyota Etios Liva. With the hang around time period for the Maruti Swift release of over four months and Honda Motor’s shortage of diesel vehicle line-up, Toyota Motor Corporation has scheduled it in such a way to make an deep impression in the Indian car market with the launch of Toyota Etios twins in the diesel variants.

The sedan and the hatchback models of the Toyota Etios brand are likely to house the same 1.4 liter 75 bhp fixed turbo geometry engine and a promising fuel economy of 21 kmpl is expected from both. Specifications for Toyota Etios twin diesel variants will most probably come with a five speed manual transmission gearbox. The Toyota Etios diesel weighs merely 930 Kgs and is light-weighted in the segment when evaluated to the Tata Indigo Manza, the Swift Dzire and the Mahindra Logan. The sedan will get a 5-speed manual transmission and the engine is so built, that it suits the Indian Road condition. Toyota Etios has been projected on a new path and has a entirely new engine which is not present in any Toyota car till date. This new engine, will give out a mileage of 17.6 kpl.

The other models bring forward by the Toyota India in the country are like Toyota Altis, Toyota Etios Liva ,Toyota Etios sedan , Toyota Land Cruiser and Toyota Pirus, Toyota Camry, Toyota Fortuner, Toyota Land Cruiser Prado and Toyota Innova. We wish that Toyota Etios diesel will spell its charm on the car lovers for sure.
