The bold new Toyota Aygo city car arrives on British shores in a matter of weeks. It offers low running costs, big-car spec, almost endless scope for personalisation, and boasts that front end. Here’s 10, sorry, ‘X’, things you need to know about the car.
I. The Aygo goes on sale on July 1 and is available to order now from your local Toyota dealer.
II. Prices start at £7,995.
III. It’s available as a three or five-door.
IV. There are five grades from launch: x, x-play and x-pression, plus x-cite and x-clusiv special editions, finished in orange and black and black and silver, respectively.
V. Projector headlights with LED tracer light, LED daytime running lights, electric front windows and a tyre pressure monitor feature as standard across the range.
VI. All variants are exempt from VED (road) tax
VII. Combined cycle economy figures for the Aygo range from 64.2 and 68.8mpg*
VIII. A five-speed manual transmission and ‘x-shift’ automated manual transmission will be offered. X-shift can be used in fully automatic mode, or with manual gear selection using paddle shifts or the shift lever itself.
IX. There are theoretically over half a million potential trim combinations with 10 interchangeable exterior and cabin features and four option packs.
X. A multimedia system, called ‘x-touch’ is standard on x-pression models and features a seven-inch touch screen, DAB audio and bluetooth, and a ‘mirrorlink’ function that replicates a connected smart phone’s screen and compatible applications on the x-screen. Sat nav is a £395** option.

Could maybe tempted by one of these……but I only purchased my Yaris Trend just 12 months ago
Thanks for your post Martin.
Decisions, decisions . . . hard for us to know what to say here Martin. The Yaris Trend is proving extremely popular among our customers. Perhaps you should just pop along and test drive an Aygo? No obligation and after driving it might help make the decision for you!
Hope we have helped.
It’s Steve Martin btw
I will contact Paul in sales as he has always looked after myself and my son when we buy our Toyotas 🙂
Bought mine
Thanks for letting us know Ben. Feel free to post a pic on our Toyota UK Facebook page.
I got my Aygo X-Cite last Thursday. I was coming from an older Aygo. It feels like such an upgrade. I’m loving it.
I also had great service from Peterat East Kilbride Toyota!
Great to hear about your new Aygo Stephen. Thanks for your feedback. Feel free to post a pic on our Facebook page.
Bought my aygo on may2nd still trying to connect my bluetooth. Salesman tried but unable to do it. Explanation in book not very helpful
Hi Reg, sorry to hear you’re having bluetooth troubles. What phone are you trying to connect? If you could talk us through the steps you’re taking, we’ll talk to our tech team and see if we can find a solution!
What does shift mean on the dashboard
Hi Jeff,
The ‘SHIFT’ light usually means you need to increase your gear. Many thanks.
How do I change the irritating woman’s voice on the Sat Nav. Otherwise I love my new Aygo X play. (Took delivery on 22nd March 2018.)
Hi Michele,
Thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, the voice cannot be changed on the sat nav.
Thanks.
