Ngemuva kwamahlebezi amaningi, iToyota ikuqinisekisile ngokusemthethweni ukuthi izosala esigabeni sika-A, kanti ozongena esikhundleni sikaToyota Aygo usebenzisa inkundla yeYaris, i- GA-B.
Isimemezelo esiphikisana nomjikelezo wabanye abakhiqizi, abanjengoRenault, osekuqinisekisile ukuthi ngeke abe khona ozongena esikhundleni seTwingo encane.
Iqiniso lithi, isinqumo seToyota sokuhlala esigabeni sika-A akusona isimangaliso esikhulu. Phela, zonke "izibonakaliso" zabonisa ukuthi uhlobo lwaseJapane lwaluzokwenza. Eminyakeni emibili edlule, wathenga ifekthri e-Kolin, eCzech Republic, lapho kukhiqizwa khona abantu basedolobheni lokuhlanganyela phakathi kweToyota ne-PSA (manje eyiStellantis), okungukuthi, iToyota Aygo, Citroën C1 kanye nePeugeot 108.
