Toyota Vitz Hatchback was unveiled and is said to run for 26.5km/lit. Toyota Vitz Hatchback is a defiant competitor for Honda"s Fit and Nissan"s March as already it has reached the sale volume of 1,25,000 units in its local market during the last FY.

Toyota Vitz Hatchback has the challenging fuel efficiency - 26.5km/lit against March"s 26.0km/lit and Fit"s 24.5km/lit. Being priced at 1.06 million yen in Japan, Toyota claims that it is selling 10,000 units every month. Toyota is facing a grim future for its sale in this FY- fall by 17% with sale of 1.3 million units - an all time low- in the midst of forecasted 9.9% fall in the Japan"s automobile manufacturers association. Till September this year, Toyota survived such a fall due to the unprecedented sale of its hybrid Prius.

Toyota Vitz Hatchback was on the big run after the government announced subsidies for electric and hybrid versions. Toyota had to face its sale fall by35% in November alone even after undergoing tax exemptions for its hybrid cars. Toyota"s Vitz Hatchback (Yaris in other markets) has been in the run since 1999 and the net sale as of now is 3.5 million spread to 70+ countries.
