While the European Toyota Yaris TS uses a 1.8 litre Dual VVT-i engine producing 130 horsepower at 6,000rpm and 173Nm of torque at 4,400rpm, its Japanese twin with a different name the Toyota Vitz has gone down the forced induction route with the Toyota Vitz TRD Turbo M. Sporting a similiar engine to the Toyota Vios Turbo sold in Thailand some time ago, the 1.5 litre DOHC VVT-i engine 1NZ-FE in the Toyota Vitz gets a bolt-on turbocharger with intercooler and now produces 150 horsepower at 6,000rpm and 195Nm of torque at 4,800rpm, far more powerful than the Yaris TS.
Nearly 200Nm of torque should prove pretty fun for a car that weighs only 1,060kg, but its a shame that peak torque kicks in at such a high RPM, something unseen of with modern turbocharged engines. We’re used to peak torque kicking in under 2,500rpm in small displacement engines these days, but then again we have to remember that unlike the BMW Price, Fiat T-JET or the Volkswagen TSI engine, this wasn’t designed to be a turbocharged engine to begin with, and is a bolt-on. So the numbers are pretty decent. The Vitz TRD Turbo M rides on a stiffer suspension that also lowers the car by 15mm.
When I was browsing through the Vitz’s microsite, I also found a more powerful normally aspirated variant of the 1NZ-FE that makes 119 PS at 6,000rpm and 147Nm of torque between 4,400rpm and 5,200rpm, compared to the 1NZ-FE in our Toyota Vios which makes the usual 109 PS and 142Nm of torque. We could possibly see this state of tune being made the standard 1NZ-FE tune in the future to counter Honda’s latest series of 1.5 litre engines found in the 2nd generation Fit which already produces 120 PS.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Maybe toyota does not want the car to be used in drag races, but speeding on the road at high speeds. LOL
why the logo different ar??
At first glance, I nearly thought this is a Perodua-badged Yaris. Look at the badge. Color the badge red and green, and its a perodua. LOL!
ughhh not this design again…. So ugly
achoom!!!
I really love the Yaris… it’s so cute but yet cool enuff for the guys~
Wish they’d have the more powerful version here too, but I guess the market here doesn’t allow for good sales…
its the tanaka logo
of all the ugly cars i have seen, this one takes the cake.
wow ~ it will fly ~ will turbo mode vios avaiable in malaysia ?? thailand got manual with turbo vios …
its a Toyota Modellista badge… just like the one on my bro’s wish. people thought its a new Perodua wish.
1.6 campro cps = 125hp
this toyota… 1.8 ONLY ONLY ONLY 130 hp? what the f?
campro cps is ps lah pls
not hp
and peak hp you won’t use it every day
but maximum torque u use it every day
so torque is much more real compare to hp
cps 1.6 150nm is kind of low
even g.livina do not have any vvt have higher torque then cps
Does this mean if you bolt on a turbine booster on Campro CPS, we can beat a world class engine?
The 1.5 Vios Turbo produces 150hp. Just maybe, what if 1.6 Campro CPS Turbo can pull 175 horsies…hmm…
Can the Campro CPS engine internal parts can the force of a turbo add no?? BTW, why P1 didnt make a turbo GTI?
is this coming? is this coming?
Hell no, we’ll never see the light of day on a CPS Turbo. Rest assured they’ll keep on makin’ it tourqier by the month (spelling right or not?)

Or just too obsess with Toyota?
Even the Campro IAFM 1.3 had 110hp lah!..
The Torque is another story.. :P
Hell no, we’ll never see the light of day on a Campro CPS Turbo. Rest assured there will be more torque..
