2013 Vios - Let's hope Toyota brings it to N. America

[Kal-El]

I know leaked images were posted someone on here a little while back, can't find where. But here are nice official photos.

Officially launched a few weeks ago at the Bangkok auto show (apparently the biggest market for the Vios).

Looks really good. Toyota NEEDS to bring this over as the new Yaris sedan (2014?). Nearly everyone offers a subcompact sedan, it makes no sense that Toyota, the world's largest automaker, would ignore the segment in America after they have sold well here in the past. They shouldn't leave Corolla as the only sedan choice at the small end as it continues to get bigger.

And clearly the Yaris Liftback has had very mediocre sales in it's first year and a half. Americans buy more sedans.







Interior is a huge upgrade.



Notice that unlike the 2nd gen Vios/Vitz/Yaris duo, the sedan and hatch share nothing except some mechanicals. Totally different interiors.
