The first generation of Aygo was unveiled at the Salon de L’Automobile in Geneva, 2005.
With the great success achieved over the years, Toyota decided it was time for a redesigned Aygo. Whoever thinks that a small city car should be only practical and economical should see the Aygo.
While matching the characteristics of a great city car, the Aygo had a very interesting design that appealed to the users.
From the front, the Aygo looked a little sporty with its fun aspect.
The Aygo came with a redesigned front grille and bumper. The front was extended by 10mm.
Inside, the Aygo offered great comfort and high quality materials were used throughout.
The Aygo was fitted with A 1.0-liter 3-cylinder engine, a gasoline powerplant that was developed to achieve great power, with great fuel consumption and reduced CO2 emissions.
The engine featured an all-aluminum construction which made it the lightest one available on the car market by that time - it weighed only 67 kg.
All Aygos came with a standard ESP.
Safety wise, the Aygo was equipped with the Toyota’s MICS (Minimal Intrusion Cabin System), a structure meant to reduce the risk on injuries if involved in an accident. Front airbags were standard and side and entry curtains were optional for every trim model.
