Toyota Aygo Platinum Luxury Edition

The new Platinum version of Toyota’s city car will go on sale in the UK from January. According to the Japanese carmaker, while the Aygo Platinum benefits from £1,555-worth of additional equipment beyond the range-topping Aygo+, the price premium is just an extra £550. Luxury features provided as standard in the Platinum include Alcantara and leather upholstery, leather trim for the steering wheel and gear knob and 14-inch Turbine alloy wheels with locking nuts. There is also Crystal Silver metallic paint which is exclusive to the Platinum model. -Continued

These items are in addition to the regular Aygo+ specification, which includes six airbags, electric front windows, tilt-adjusting steering column, remote central locking, removable rear parcels shelf, six-speaker sound system with CD player and AUX-in socket for connecting portable audio equipment, 50:50 split-folding rear seats and body colour-matched door handles.

The Aygo Platinum is available in both three and five-door body styles, powered by Toyota’s 1.0 VVT-i petrol engine. On-the-road prices in the UK are £7,995 for the three-door model and £8,245 for the five-door.
