Toyota Etios Liva, the much awaited compact hatchback in the Indian market, is all set to mark its debut in the country today. The car will be launched in the price segment of Rs 4 to 5 lakh where it will be taking on the likes of Maruti Swift and Ritz, Ford Figo, Volkswagen Polo and Nissan Micra. The car was previously scheduled to be launched in April 2011, but due to a massive earthquake in March, the launch of the car was postponed to June this year.
Earlier on Sunday, a local media group managed to obtain a brochure of the Liva hatchback. As per the news reports, the Liva hatchback will be launched in four variants in the Indian market including Liva J, Liva G, Liva V and Liva VX. The other attractions of the car include a standard cooled 13 liter glove box, 2-DIN stereo with volume controls on steering, and new age safety features such as airbags, ABS and EBD.
