The Aygo X launched as Toyota's replacement for the conventional Aygo, moving the city car into crossover territory with a higher ride height and more rugged styling. It quickly became one of the most reliable new cars in the UK, often scoring 99%+ in reliability surveys. The 1.0 engine is carried over from the Mk2, keeping running costs minimal while the crossover format appeals to modern buyers.
