Toyota UMW Malaysia seems to facelifted the vios and it is coming to your showroom near you real soon. The above image which is from Toyota website give us a little tease about the up coming Toyota Vios 2010 Malaysia version. There are not much changes externally – just the usual suspects of changed parts such as the front bumper design, grille, rear tail lamp, and a chrome strip on the boot lid. The engine remains unchanged – it is still the 1NZ-FE DOHC putting out 109 PS and 141Nm of torque.
8 models are available in Thailand. It’s what looks like an aftermarket-ish Heads-Up Display module that displays the car’s current speed on your windscreen. A new AUX input for the radio so you can connect your external MP3 players. Would be better if there was a USB port instead for the audio data to be sent to the stereo digitally. And of course finally, there’s an engine start/stop button which hints at keyless entry and go.
On the back side, the tail lights is redesigned and also a chrome bar is added right above the car license plate (somehow I recall seeing this on the road). I like the chrome added design making it more elegant and it looks wider.
The most significant change as we will notice is the front grille, a different style of rear lamp and possible a new design of rims.UMW Toyota Malaysia will make some adjustment to the price of the new facelift vios.
