When we say “modified”, thoughts like changing the front bumper or adding a rear spoiler would come to mind. And then, occasionally, you will come across modifications that transform a car to look like something else like this Toyota Alphard with a Rolls Royce face. This Toyota Cullinan/ Rolls Royce Alphard (depending on how you look at it), appeared at the famous Daikoku parking lot – Fast and Furious fans would know this place – to deceive the eye of all visitors. Though no changes were made t

One of the cars that stole last week's thunder was the 2020 Toyota Vios GR Sport. Since we first broke news of the car a couple of months ago and all the way up to our Closer Look post, one thing has got one trump card that people have been talking about - its '10-speed' gearbox. Pretty much for good reason too. Name us a few other cars that come with 10-speed gearboxes. There's the 2020 Ford Ranger Wildtrak, its beefier Ranger Raptor sibling and the way more expensive 2020 Lexus LC500 Convertib

Toyota Vios Beberapa minggu lepas, kami menjangkakan bahawa Toyota Vios facelift 2021 akan hadir ke Malaysia sebelum 2020 menutup tirai. Nampaknya, ramalanku benar belaka. Selain daripada Toyota Vios, Toyota Yaris facelift juga sah bakal hadir sebelum 2021. Menurut laman Facebook rasmi Toyota, bukan 1 tetapi 2 model akan dilancarkan oleh UMW Toyota Malaysia hujung tahun ini. Toyota Vios dan Toyota Yaris, kedua-duanya merupakan model terlaris Toyota di samping Toyota Hilux. Dengan kehadiran Honda

Toyota Vios Sebelum ini, terdapat khabar angin yang mengatakan bahawa Toyota Vios bakal menerima facelift ringkas pada hujung tahun 2020. Tidak mahu diketepikan dari saingan Honda City 2020 serba baru dan Nissan Almera Turbo 2020 serba baru, Toyota Vios dikatakan bakal mengenakan facelift berdasarkan Toyota Yaris Ativ di Thailand. Sehubungan dengan itu, Toyota Vios 2020 facelift tersebut turut dilaporkan bakal menerima varian GR (Gazoo Racing). Gazoo Racing adalah lencana prestasi Toyota yang me

UMW Toyota akan melancarkan satu model baru pada 17 Disember. Sudah menjadi kebiasaan promo acah pada fasa awalnya, maklumat terperinci belum didedahkan. Tapi, cara dan intonasi iklannya berbunyi agak ‘hip’, ditujukan kepada orang muda dengan gaya. Oleh itu, kita dah boleh jangkakan yang ia barangkali bukannya Toyota Fortuner mahupun Toyota Innova, walaupun kedua-dua model ini sudah patut menerima kemaskini, meniru penambahbaikan yang baru seperti Toyota Hilux yang berkongsi platform IMV. Mungki

Typical of such pre-launch teasers, details are intentionally held back but the tone and manner of the communication suggests something youthful, emotional and sporty. So we can safely rule out cars like the Toyota Fortuner and Toyota Innova, both of which are also due for an update, following a similar refresh for the shared IMV-platform Toyota Hilux. Could it be the new updated Toyota Vios and Toyota Yaris then? Bookings are opened for both models, both are yet to be launched. The Vios-Yaris t

Sekiranya anda mengikut kami, anda mungkin tahu bahawa Toyota Vios facelift 2021 bakal hadir dengan varian GR Sport yang lebih ‘panas’! Bagi kami, sebuah Vios dengan sentuhan Gazoo Racing agak memeranjatkan. Walau apapun, ia tetap akan dilancarkan. Maka itu, kita boleh menjangkakan bahawa Toyota Corolla Atlis GR Sport 2021 akan turut hadir di Malaysia memandangkan Thailand sudah mula menjual model ini.

Hot on the heels of the 2021 Toyota Vios facelift is this - the Vios GR Sport. Heavily touted to be what's launching in Malaysia tonight, here's your first look at it courtesy of this leaked photo found on Facebook. It's a real, printed poster so the car is not something we made up: that's a real Vios wearing a GR Sport badge, folks. First impressions are it looks great - the squared-off front bumper, bespoke bodykit and wheel combo makes it look a bit like the 2021 Toyota GR Yaris. Much of the

Well, this is rather surprising, as a recent news report from Vietnam has mentioned that Toyota will be introducing the souped-up Toyota Vios GR Sport in the country soon. The left-hand drive Vios GR Sport was earlier previewed to dealers, in which Toyota Vietnam said that the model will be launched some time in February. Like the Malaysian-spec car, the Vios GR Sport that’s set to go on sale in Vietnam appears to don the exact kit, encompassing a unique front bumper, body kit, and spoiler. Howe

If you've been following our website, you'll know that the 2021 Toyota Vios facelift will bring with it a new variant - the Vios GR Sport. To most of us, a Vios with Gazoo Racing touches is a bit of a surprise. But that's happening, so it isn't too far-fetched to expect the 2021 Toyota Corolla Altis GR Sport in Malaysia too, since Thailand already has that model on sale. Drawing inspiration from Toyota's performance-oriented GR models, the Thai-spec Corolla Altis GR Sport gets significant aesthe

Seen here are three variants of the updated Toyota Vios, which have been leaked ahead of its 25-July debut in the Philippines.

After much teasing, the 2020 Toyota Vios facelift has just been launched in the Philippines. The launch was done virtually over Toyota Motor Philippines' official Facebook page. The facelifted Toyota Vios receives a cleaner, sleeker new front face, that is reminiscent of its bigger siblings, the Corolla Altis and Camry. The new foglamp design also gets tucked neatly down at the front bumper. All else about the Vios' exterior remains the same, even the wheel design. For the first time in a Vios,

Ever since its world debut in Malaysia, the 2021 Toyota Vios GR-S has been making waves around South East Asia. Following the Malaysian and Vietnamese launch, the next stop for the sportier variant of the B-segment sedan is the Philippines.

The Toyota Vios has its ups and downs but there is no denying that it is still a hugely popular car. You can’t walk 10 steps without stumbling over one in a parking lot. The Vios seems like it’s been around for years, 18 years to be exact. Wait what? But it feels longer! It’s true that the Vios started life only in 2002. It was a car created specifically to be sold in the Asia-Pacific market taking over the small sedan segment baton from what ASEAN regions know as the Toyota Soluna. Never heard

(2019 Toyota Vios prices and specs | Gallery) To begin with, a full disclosure – my daily is a 2014 (third generation pre-facelift) Toyota Vios and some bias may be involved in this review, but not in the way that you think, it's actually against the Toyota Vios. Personally, the Toyota Vios has never been appealing because to me, it is merely a means to avoid our national brands. And when my family decided to get one back in 2014, needless to say I wasn't particularly thrilled by the news. But p
