Toyota Etios hatchback will replace Toyota Tazz hatchback in South Africa. In India, the Toyota Etios twins have proved to be decent sellers for the company, but sadly wasn’t able to bring in any massive figures to the firm in spite of the fact that these cars are offered in both diesel and petrol versions in India. The major reason behind the not so impressive success in India for Toyota Etios twins is the not-so-unique looks. However, when looked upon the technical specifications, Etios is powered by 1.5 litre of petrol engine and 1.4 litre of turbo diesel motor.
