TOYOTA GIVES VERSO A NEW LOOK






The new Toyota Verso is on its way to Mzansi! New is probably stretching it a little bit; it’s only a facelift. Except it isn’t really “only” a facelift. Toyota says the revamped Verso features up to 470 new parts over the outgoing model.


First obvious changes are on the exterior where we can see those swag LED daytime running lights for the first time on a Verso. The face is completely new and features Toyota brand’s new family grille and bumper. Integrated indicators on the side mirrors add to the higher-end aura, and the rear is fitted with a new bumper too.

The Verso is so named because of its versatility and 7-seat layout. Apparently there are 32 different seating configurations, which means one can have a different one everyday, every month.

Defiant as ever, Toyota is still not buying the turbocharged petrol engine argument and is therefore only installing blowers in its diesel units. Europe engines include a 1.6-litre making 97kW and a 108kW 1.8-litre.
