Arriving: Q1 2017
The facelifted Toyota Previa Aeras is heading our way, the brand's seven-seater SUV offering. The lavishly furnished model, with two plush Captain & Ottoman seats, is powered by a 167bhp 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine, matched to a CVT transmission. Additional highlights include LED headlamps and daytime running lights, as well as twin moonroofs.
Vios
Arriving: Q1 2017
Arguably the most common car on our roads, the Toyota Vios receives a facelift for 2017. While the exterior looks the same (with the addition of LED lights), expect upgrades to the interior, including updated technologies and a revised interior design. Little else in information is available, but we should expect to see the same powertrain options.
