According to some sources, Toyota and Daihatsu are researching and developing new engines for the Vios and its derivatives to serve the Southeast Asian market.

Providing power for the Toyota Vios for many years has been the naturally aspirated 1.3L and 1.5L engines. However, now that the car has been shifted to the new DNGA platform, upgrading the engine is necessary.

It is likely that this B-segment sedan will be equipped with a turbocharged direct injection 1.0L engine.

Speculations about the new engine suggest a power output of 110 horsepower and 200 Nm, a significant increase compared to the previous 1.5L engine’s figures of 106/138 units. This engine’s power even surpasses that of the “rival” Hyundai Accent (100 horsepower) and Nissan Almera (98 horsepower).

Currently, the Japanese automaker has not yet confirmed this information.

The latest generation of Toyota Vios was launched in 2022. Therefore, users may have to wait at least 1 – 2 years for an upgraded version. Only then can the information be verified.
