Toyota Aygo X
The Toyota Aygo X — a mini-crossover built on the TNGA-B platform, designed from 2021 for European urban environments, featuring dual-tone color options and rugged styling.
Overview
The Toyota Aygo X was introduced in 2021 as the successor to the Aygo. Built on the same GA-B (TNGA-B) platform as the Yaris, this model combines subcompact class with mini-SUV styling. The 1.0L 1KR-FE three-cylinder engine (72 hp) is paired with a 5-speed manual or CVT. Designed for European cities, the Aygo X remains very compact at 3,700 mm in length.
The Aygo X's most eye-catching feature is its design: elevated body, X-shaped front grille, and dual-tone color options. Since the GA-B platform comes from the Yaris, driving dynamics are significantly improved compared to the previous Aygo. Optimal dimensions for Europe's narrow streets.
The Aygo X is rarely found in Azerbaijan, but its popularity in the European market has begun to bring it through parallel import channels. The 1.0L 1KR engine is sufficiently powerful for city use; low fuel consumption (4.5-5.5 L/100km) is one of its main advantages.

Aygo X FAQ — Azerbaijan Buyers
Is the Aygo X sold outside the European market?
The Aygo X is primarily intended for Europe. It is also available in some Middle Eastern markets. Parallel import of European market examples to Azerbaijan is possible.
How does the Aygo X differ from the Yaris?
The Aygo X is smaller (3,700 mm vs 3,940 mm) and has a weaker engine (72 vs 92+ hp). However, both share the GA-B platform. The Yaris has a hybrid option; the Aygo X is at a more affordable price point.
Is 72 hp sufficient?
For city driving, 72 hp is sufficient. The car moves comfortably in fast-moving traffic. However, on motorways under load, performance is limited. It is primarily designed for city use.
Toyota Aygo X ?
The Aygo X is perfectly suited for European city driving, but is power-limited for Azerbaijan's mountain roads and long distances. If primarily used within Baku city, the Aygo X combines economical fuel consumption, attractive design, and TNGA-B reliability.
