New Toyota Aygo X-clusiv and Toyota X-play Concept

Following the special editions x-cite and x-pure, the new Aygo x-clusiv is in the pipeline, featuring a more sophisticated dimension to the line-up. The model comes with x-wave electrically retracting canvas roof and is finished in Electro Grey paint. The wheels are 15-inch alloys with a machined finish, silver centre cap and piano black centre ring.

The theme continues in the cabin with Electro Grey air vent surrounds, centre cluster and gear lever surround. The instrument panel insert and floor mat inserts are silver and the internal door handles are finished in chrome.

Aygo adopts the Toyota Safety Sense package of active technologies to help prevent or reduce a collision in different traffic situations. It includes a laser-controlled Pre-Collision System that warns the driver of an imminent collision with a vehicle ahead (Forward Collision Warning) and readies Pre-Crash Brake Assist to deliver emergency braking as soon as the brake pedal is pressed. If the driver fails to take action, the system will initiate Autonomous Emergency Braking to reduce speed by about 19mph, potentially bringing the car to a stop, to prevent a collision or reduce the force of impact.

A Lane Departure Alert function is also included. This monitors lane markings on the road and helps prevent accidents and head-on collisions caused by a vehicle moving out of its lane.

AYGO X-PLAY CONCEPT

Toyota is exploring Aygo’s clever customisation possibilities in the new x-play Concept, showcasing some of the striking contrasts that can be created between the bodywork and the different colours and finishes of up to 10 changeable parts.

The model has Cyan Splash exterior paintwork with White Flash for the roof, front ‘X’, front pillars, front bumper trim, rear bumper insert and door mirrors. The 15-inch alloys are finished in white, with Cyan Splash centre caps. The theme is carried through to the cabin with a Cyan Splash dashboard and White Flash trim details.
