#21 of 2694 Scion vs. Echo by a_l_hubcaps Dec 01, 2004 (1:52 pm)
carlismo-   Yeah, I think the reason they are not dropping the Echo is that they don't want dealerships selling Scion xAs to little old ladies. So we will probably see a fairly plain version of the new Vitz/Yaris as an Echo replacement, to keep it distinct from the Scions.   -Andrew L Replies to this message: faravision (Aug 22, 2006 1:10 pm)

Replying to: wheelz4 (Dec 02, 2004 6:24 am) Interior shot of what? We don't know if that is even supposed to be an Echo since it is simply a direct link to a photo of some Toyota that could be another model for another market.

It's Europe (and probably Japan's) sporty version of the Echo hatch. At least supposedly. I didn't know either, when I saw and posted the pictures. Man, it puts the Echo in a different light for me. The interior too.

Since this is the 2006 Toyota Echo forum, the interior shot is, you guessed it, of the 2006 Toyota Echo (shown in the Japanese "Vitz" version, as are the exterior photos)...sorry for the sarcasm! It's interesting to note that US sales of the Echo are almost non-existant, and yet it was the #5 best selling car in Canada in October (and probably will be for the whole year as well). Of course, we have the Echo hatch to choose from, as well as the sedan. It's good, reliable transportation....comfortable, roomy for it's size and gets the best gas mileage of anything, save for a diesel or hybrid. The tweeks they made to the styling of the sedan in 2003 make it look a little more attractive and, based on the "2006" photos, I think it's popularity will only increase, at least here in Canada anyway.
#26 of 2694 ECHO hatch in U.S. by carglow Dec 03, 2004 (5:54 pm)
If they offer an ECHO hatchback in the U.S. I'll be trading in the 05 Corolla LE. Guess I'm still striving to return to the old Tercel hatchback days. Don't know why the xA didn't do it for me.

So if I understand well, the next Echo comes out in October 2005! That's a long wait! I thought we might be able to see it in the showrooms in spring 2005!

In Andrew's post the Yaris is listed twice -- once as H/B (hatchback) and once as S/D. What does the S/D designation mean? Sedan and ???   Also, this was on Detroit News today -- it also confirms the Echo will be replaced by "two European styled small cars in 2006."   http://www.detnews.com/2005/autosinsider/0501/13/B02-58761.htm   Could the second model be the odd looking Yaris Verso? (the plain Verso looks very hot too) http://www.toyota.co.uk/cgi-bin/toyota/bv/generic_editorial.jsp?B- V_SessionID=@@@@0553460308.1105621859@@@@&BV_EngineID=ccceadd- diilifhlcfngcfkmdfkidffi.0&navRoot=toyota_root&portal=nul- l&edname=YarisVerso+Intro&catname=%2ftoyota_root%2fTopNav- %2fNew+Cars&zone=Zone+YARISVERSO&menuid=112347

Well, the Echo is gonna be replaced by an European car, but only in the United States since Canada already has the rebadged Toyota Yaris (as Echo Hatchback). This car will probably continue being ''worldwide'' since the american Echo is simply the sedan version of the Japanese Vitz, European Yaris and Canadian Echo Hatchback (which are the same cars with different equipement, engine choices and bumpers depending in what country the cars are sold) Replies to this message: polkadot1 (Mar 20, 2006 9:21 am)
