Overview

The vehicle was previewed by the "Aygo X prologue" concept car, which was presented on 17 March 2021. [5] The concept car was designed by Toyota Motor Europe ED² design center in Sophia-Antipolis, France, while the production version was designed by Toyota Motor Europe design center of Zaventem, Belgium. [6] The latter was presented on 5 November. [7] The "X" is pronounced "Cross" to define the vehicle as a crossover, [8] similar to the Yaris Cross and the Corolla Cross. The Aygo X is marketed as a higher-end vehicle in the A-segment class. [9]

Aygo X Air Edition

The Toyota Aygo X Air Edition is a special edition available in the UK, offering more options along with a canvas roof. [10] It will be available exclusively online via the Toyota UK website. [10]

Concept

The Toyota Aygo X was prefigured by the Aygo X Prologue concept car presented on March 17, 2021. [11]

Specifications

The Aygo X is built on the shortened version of the GA-B platform. [12] The platform therefore differs from the first two generations of the Aygo, which were produced at the TMMCZ plant in Kolín, Czech Republic, where the Aygo X is also produced. [13] The 1.0-litre 1KR-B52 engine is retained from the previous Aygo models. [14]
