The newly launched 2005 Toyota Vitz is equipped with generous cabin space and large luggage capacity achieved inside compact exterior dimensions through a superior package made possible by a newly developed platform. Versatile seat arrangements and ample storage space deliver a high level of utility. A newly designed suspension and brakes make for brisk yet stable driving performance and a comfortable ride. The Vitz uses Toyota's VVT-i technology which brings substantial advantages in 3 main areas: It allows sporty performance, reduces your petrol costs, and in addition, more complete fuel burn at higher temperatures leads to fewer harmful emissions. Linear acceleration and a smooth driving feel have also been achieved through the use of the new Super CVT-i (Continuously Variable Transmission-intelligent). A newly developed ultra-compact torque converter realizes a smooth drive and high fuel efficiency.
