Its production started in the end of 2005 with the high spirit of Toyota coming by default. It is called Toyota Yaris in North America and Australia while the South Asia knows it as Toyota Vios.
The Toyota Belta has the unique position of being the subcompact sedan that is designed, assembled and sold in Japan with no direct competition in domestic market. The review highlights the following points:

The Toyota Belta had 3 different power trains and it was exported with 1.5 liter engine due to which the smaller engines were not available in many countries.

  • 1.0 liter (3 cylinder 996 cc)
  • 1.3 liter (4 cylinder 1296 cc)
  • 1.5 liter (4 cylinder 1497 cc)

The car was available with a 4 speed automatic or Super CVT-i automatic transmission. A Super ECT transmission (Electronic control transmission) was also offered in better trims. In many other countries the Toyota Belta / Yaris sedan / Vios was also available with a 5 speed manual transmission.
