Pure excitement with the Toyota Aygo

  • by Mike Torpey
  • June 14, 2015

Toyota has lifted the wraps from a dynamic duo to excite the motoring fashion gurus in the shape of new versions of its Aygo city car.

The models, called x-cite and x-pure, will cost from £11,295 when they arrive in August and each makes an individual style statement.

So the updated x-cite follows the theme set by the original x-cite model, replacing that car’s Orange Twist paintwork with a bright Cyan Splash.

And the blue metallic bodywork contrasts with gloss black custom features like 15-inch twin-spoke alloy wheels, door mirror casings, front pillar extensions and rear bumper inserts.

That theme continues to the cabin where the Cyan Blue shade is featured on the air vent surrounds and carpet mat edging.

The seats are finished in dark grey with blue and light grey bolsters while the centre console and gearshift surround are in a gloss black.

There’s also a bi-tone version of x-cite, which adds metallic black painted roof and front and rear pillars, plus rear privacy glass for an extra £395.

Kit includes the Japanese brand’s x-touch multimedia system with Bluetooth and DAB plus a reversing camera, along with the likes of air-con, leather steering wheel and LED daytime running lights.

Three and five door versions are up for grabs, powered by a 1.0-litre engine with manual or automatic transmission, CO2 emisions from 95g/km and the potential for an average fuel return of 68.9mpg.

Meanwhile, the Aygo x-pure has White Flash paintwork on the outside along with rear privacy glass, white-painted alloys and silver-finished bodywork elements.

Inside, the standard grey seat fabric is accompanied by white and light grey bolsters and the centre console and gearshift surround follow the trend with a silver-white finish.
