Overview

The Toyota Roomy was introduced to the market in 2016. This model is a rebadged version of the Daihatsu Thor marketed under the Toyota brand name. It was also sold under the Subaru Justy name. Built on the M900A/M910A platform. It belongs to the "tall MPV" — high minivan category. Although its external dimensions don't look large for Japanese standards, the high cabin design significantly increases interior volume.

The 1KR-FE 1.0L 3-cylinder engine produces 69 hp. The turbo version features the 1KR-VET engine producing 98 hp. City driving is comfortable with the CVT transmission. Dual sliding rear doors on both sides are one of the model's biggest advantages — the entry/exit problem in city parking spaces is completely resolved.

In Azerbaijan, the Toyota Roomy attracts interest but is a rare find. Sliding doors, high ceiling, comfortable CVT, reliable engine from the Daihatsu/Toyota heritage — all of these are ideal parameters for urban families. Parts sourcing can utilize the Daihatsu Thor network.

Roomy FAQ — Azerbaijan Buyers

What is the difference between the Toyota Roomy and Toyota Tank?

The Toyota Roomy and Toyota Tank are built on the same Daihatsu Thor platform. The Roomy was sold from Toyota Netz Store, while the Tank was sold from Toyota Toyopet Store. The exterior appearance is different — the Tank has a more powerful, more aggressive exterior design. They are mechanically identical.

Are dual sliding doors really useful in daily city life?

Yes, especially for families with children, dual sliding doors are a great advantage. You can comfortably enter and exit from narrow parking spaces, and children won't hit the car next to them with the door open. Also very convenient during pregnancy and for elderly parents.

Is the 1.0L engine sufficient for Azerbaijani roads?

The 1KR-FE 1.0L 69 hp is sufficient for inner-city driving. It is perfectly suitable for places like Baku city and Sumqayit. However, for mountainous highways like Quba-Baku, Sheki-Baku, the turbo version (98 hp) provides more comfortable driving. If you plan long intercity trips — choose the turbo.
