Toyota Limo
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Toyota Limo is an automobile nameplate used by the Japanese automaker Toyota for two different fleet-themed vehicles, primarily for the Southeast Asian markets: a Vios-derived subcompact car (2003–2016, primarily offered in Indonesia and Vietnam), and a Corolla-derived compact car (2003–present, primarily offered in Thailand).
Both cars are essentially scaled-down variants of its respective base models designed specifically for taxi fleet, retaining the same engine options from either the two, but with a specially tuned ECU for more fuel efficient and economical use and softer suspension for comfort, while lacking any extra equipment. The result of which was a robust low maintenance cost, with longer service intervals that may be yearly or every 100,000 kilometres (62,000 miles).
The Vios-based Limo is primarily offered and commonly used as taxicabs by various taxi firms in Indonesia and Vietnam.
In Indonesia, the Vios-based Limo replaces the XLi trim of the Soluna, the Southeast Asian variant of the Tercel, and is only powered by the 1.5-litre 1NZ-FE petrol engine. Orders were stopped in 2016, when Toyota started offering the Transmover, a fleet variant of the Avanza MPV.[1][2]
