Toyota Aygo

The Toyota Aygo is a city car (A-segment) marketed by Toyota mainly in the European market between 2005 and 2022 across two generations. The Aygo was first displayed at the 2005 Geneva International Motor Show. It was built alongside the related Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107/108 at the Toyota Peugeot Citroën Automobile Czech (TPCA) joint venture in Kolín, Czech Republic. The Aygo's production ended in 2021 and the model was replaced by the crossover-styled Aygo X. The name "Aygo" comes from "i-go", symbolising freedom and mobility.

First generation (AB10/AB20/AB30; 2005)

The decision to produce the cars was made on 12 July 2001 when the presidents of Toyota and PSA Peugeot Citroën, Fujio Cho and Jean-Martin Folz respectively, decided to produce a small car to share development costs. This project was called B-Zero. The Peugeot 107 and Citroën C1 are rebadged versions of the same car. The main difference between the Aygo and its French siblings are badging, rear side windows, steering wheel, and the easily recognizable front and rear treatments. The planned production was 300,000 cars annually – 100,000 cars per brand. Sales began in July 2005, and the car was available as a three- or five-door hatchback. There were two engines available, a 1.0-litre, three-cylinder engine rated at 68 PS (50 kW), and a 1.4 L turbo-diesel I4 engine rated at 54 PS (40 kW). The Aygo was used on BBC's Top Gear in a giant match of football, showcasing its maneuverability. The Top Gear presenters deemed the Aygo and its Peugeot and Citroën counterparts to be competent town cars. A modified Aygo was also used on Fifth Gear to perform a twelve metre high loop the loop on a specially designed track to determine if a stunt that can be done using Hot Wheels toys can be replicated in real life. The stunt was driven by stuntman Steve Truglia in May 2009. In January 2010, the Aygo was part of a worldwide recall by Toyota for a faulty sticking accelerator pedal. It was found that under some circumstances, the pedal could stick in a partially depressed position, or return slowly to the off position. The recall affected the Aygo, Peugeot 107 and Citroën C1 models built between February 2005 and August 2009. Information from Toyota later suggested, however, that only Aygos with automatic gearboxes were affected, and that those with manual gearboxes were not. First generat

Second generation (AB40; 2014)

Toyota revealed a completely redesigned Aygo at the March 2014 Geneva International Motor Show with the slogan 'go fun yourself'. The design was attributed to Japanese youth culture, inspired by Japanese manga robot Astro Boy and an egg in a box and has aims to make the Aygo more accessible to younger drivers, and allow for a greater level of customisability. It began rolling off the production line on 27 May 2014.

Third generation (AB70; 2022)

The third-generation Aygo was produced since March 2022 as the Toyota Aygo X, which adopts a more crossover-oriented styling. Previously, the model was previewed by the "Aygo X prologue" concept car in March 2021. It is built on the shortened version of the GA-B platform, and no longer has a Peugeot or Citroën counterpart as PSA Group (current Stellantis) pulled out of the joint project.
