The car has been showcased to the Indian audiences at the 2010 Auto Expo held in Delhi.<br /><br />An online news portal - www.zigwheels.com about auto industry, writes about Toyota Etios Liva, “The Etios LIVA is essentially the hatchback version of its sedan sibling, namely the Etios. Both share a similar design, albeit with the LIVA having a hatch instead of a boot. Having said that, the LIVA actually looks more complete and the treatment to the rear is commendable. Interior trim levels are shared between the hatch and the sedan; however the real difference lies under the hood.<br /><br />So, Toyota Etios Liva is not very different from Etios. There is a little difference with the boot and hood in the both versions.<br /><br />Further the news portal adds about the power of Toyota Etios Liva, “Powering the Etios LIVA is a 1197cc petrol unit that delivers 80 PS at 5600 rpm and generates a decent 104Nm of torque at 3100 rpm. Mated to a five speed gearbox, the engine has been tuned to offer exceptional mileage with an ARAI claimed of 18.31 kilometers to the litre. In real world conditions expect this number to drop, however the car should still offer a rather frugal figure.<br /><br />So, Toyota Etios Liva has been designed to produce more power to the engine. The car offers more mileage than others.<br /><br />About the price range of Toyota Etios Liva, the news portal writes, “The new Toyota Etios Liva has been priced between Rs 3.99 - 5.99 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi), and will be available to customers in 5 trim variants including an optional package for the G variant.”<br /><br />Toyota Etios Liva offers the best looks and dashing design.
