In your particular case; I would suggest 5w-30, with API rating API SN / SN plus, or even SP and provided engine health is excellent (if slight compromise, then 10w-30. These all grades are mentioned in the manuals)

Official Aqua manual from 2011: https://toyota.jp/pages/contents/ownersmanual/pdf/aqua/aqua_201112.pdf

0w-20, 5w-20, 5w-30 and 10w-30 have been mentioned. Pages 406 and 407 are worth reading.

Latest Aqua manual from September 2020: https://toyota.jp/pages/contents/ownersmanual/pdf/aqua/aqua_202009.pdf

0w-16, 0w-20 and 5w-30 have been mentioned. Pages 473 and 474 are worth reading.

Engine seems the same in both cases; 1NZ-FXE.

Else if, your engine is working absolutely fine on the oil which you are currently using, stick with it.

If not satisfied, then just change brand, and not the grade.

OW 20 isn't for brand new vehicles?

You can ask the previous owner about it.

Nope. Not necessarily.
