This is the next step in the worldwide co-operation between Toyota and Suzuki where they share platforms and drivetrains. In SA we already have the Starlet/Baleno, the Urban Cruiser/Grand Vitara and the Rumion/Ertiga. It's become common practice in many cases in the industry. SA buyers are very brand conscious and loyal
Seems like Toyota ditched their alliance with Daihatsu ? They had the ideal small bakkie opportunity with the Gran Max that they just looked past. Sometimes marketing departments just don’t make sense.
Does this spec not come with a rev counter? My first car was a Tazz and that had no rev counter either. Only the higher spec Toyota Conquests had that.
Were you not allowed to say that its a rebadged Suzuki Celerio, lol? (Say it how it is...) Anyway, if you want to buy a Vitz, just go to Suzuki and buy a Celerio. The Celerio is cheaper, and you get a longer warranty!
