The Toyota Vios is a 4-door subcompact sedan developed for the South East Asia, China, and Taiwan markets.
Introduced in 2003, the Vios serves as a replacement of the Toyota Tercel (called the Toyota Soluna in Thailand and Indonesia), which filled the Asian subcompact market for a 1.5 litre, below the Toyota Corolla and Toyota Camry, both of which are also marketed in the region. The Vios is marketed alongside the Toyota Yaris in most countries in South East Asia, which offered another option for a hatchback, when it officially entered the region's market in 2005. In the United States, the second generation Vios is known as the Toyota Yaris sedan.
The second generation Vios was first unveiled in Malaysia on October 5, 2007 in Kuala Lumpur, two weeks ahead of its official launch on October 19, 2007.
The car, like its predecessors, is powered by a 1NZ-FE 1.5 litre four-pot engine with VVT-i but includes a redesigned air intake and exhaust system to improve low to mid-range torque. While the gear ratios of Vios is unchanged, its transmission is now a Super ECT four-speed automatic and improved programming for the transmission control unit. Electric power steering was also included on the new Vios.
