Sawadee krub from Bangkok! Here’s the car of the moment – the 2013 Toyota Vios on the stand at the ongoing Bangkok International Motor Show. J, E, G and S grade variants are on display.
One of the E grade variants in the pictures (in white) is kitted out with Toyota accessories which include fog lamps, a chrome surround lower front grille, chrome body mouldings and various other chrome bits here and there.

Automatic air-con and chrome-trimmed interior door handles are amongst the offerings on G and S grades, and electrically-adjustable wing mirrors from E grade on up. Keyless start and entry is offered on the top S grade.
As a recap, the new Toyota Vios has a new exterior and interior as well as projector headlamps (G and S grade only). At 4.41 metres long, 1.7 metres wide (including wing mirrors) and 1.475 metres tall, it’s slightly bigger than the outgoing car as well. The familiar 109 PS/141 Nm 1.5 litre 1NZ-FE soldiers on, as does the four-speed auto ‘box. Click here for the full information and Thai pricing and specs.
