Toyota has launched its new Agya hatchback in South Africa starting at a price of R178,600 for the cheapest model.<\/p>\n

It boasts a three-cylinder, fuel-injected petrol engine which produces a maximum power of 49kW at 6,000 rpm, and peak torque of 89Nm at 4,400 rpm.<\/p>\n

The automatic variant consumes 4.9 l\/100 km with an emissions figure of 115g CO2\/km, and accelerates from standstill to 100km\/h in 16.3 seconds. It has a top speed of 145km\/h.<\/p>\n

Other features include power steering and automatic air conditioning, while key trip information is conveyed to the driver via a multi-information display.<\/p>\n

Despite the impressive feature set, the Agya will face stiff competition in South Africa’s budget hatchback market, which features popular models from brands including Renault and Suzuki.<\/p>\n
