Toyota Yaris XP150 2020 Dedicated Discussion, Owners / Fans Club Thread

I agree with you here. Typical Darzion walay tactics hain. Like how they let the clothes hang there after completing them so other 'bajis' can notice the karegari and order the same design.

What's worrisome is that if they put the car on display people from all walks of life come to inspect the car. Not everyone is delicate with them. Koi darwazay maarta hai to check how heavy it feels. Some drop the bonnet and what not.

yep... that's why I warned them that I won't take delivery and will make random visits every day ... lol

[alphab]

Yes off course every yaris model is equipped with immobilizer

[alphab]

What ? no immobilizer ?
Every Yaris has immobilizer

Alhamdollilah,
Have received the 100K return pay-order from Indus today.

[aziz.rehan]

I don't know for sure.I was watching a review where the guy said it doesn't have one.

[kmq007]

ATIV X 1.5

In ECO Mode, If driven with a light foot between 60-80 kmph... it gives approx 18KM/L.

I today even saw it cross 20 km/l.

Normally I am around 10-12 km/l .. as I drive with a slightly heavy foot and the commute has a 5km bumper to bumper traffic patch.

The best I was able to achieve previously was 14.1 on Motorway.

On 1000km inspection, the technician took a test drive and took the car to 100 kmph and Avg was 17.1 km/l... and I was like how come I can't achieve anything like that...

I repeated the test but got 14.5 km/l max. Then I learnt the trick and if you do that you can persistently get 16 km/l +.

The trick is to keep the RPM below 2K... if you accelerate gradually to even above 100 kmph maintaining RPM below 2K ... it easily goes beyond 17 km/l

Laikin such driving is sabr ka imtehaan..

Now this is distressing....how did you even identify your car? Where'd you get the engine number, etc. to confirm that it's your car? Did you literally check every car there which was the same model & colour as what you booked? I too am concerned about a delay in delivery of my car.

[saad.ikram.5688]

Reviewers are idiots.

[Saqlain969]

What about U?

[kmq007]

Apologies for the lengthy post..

Here is what happened..

I was calling the dealership daily to inquire about the status.. one such day the sales rep unintentionally said Sir apki gari to taqreeban aai howi hai...invoice ka wait hai.. that was the tell..

I am doctor and we are trained to extract info out of patients as many a times patients don't know how to explain their symptoms.

I asked him a leading question (just like we do in medical history taking)...

Aap ki baat theek hai, laikin yeh to batain abhi gari kahan khari ki howi hai aap nay.. kahin showroom may to khari nahin kar di meri gari?

Now he was trapped... he said nahin Sir... showroom main nahin hai... I immediately said main gari dekhnay aa raha hon and I reached the dealership .. and took pics of the car which was supposed to be mine- parked in their shed with many others.

They had a sheet - it was a print out - Toyota Indus Logo was there on every paper- which had the engine/chassis number listed against customer names & PBO numbers.

After 2 days the website status changed to invoiced and I received the same car after 7 working days as Toyota withheld invoices due to the price decrease thing.The invoice had the same chassis number & engine number as the earlier pics.

The dealership said kay normally cars 7-10 din pehlay aati hai... invoice kay. Is dafa 2 weeks say garian khari hain as Toyota withheld invoices despite dispatching the cars as prices were expected to decrease and Toypta thought it was an excellent PR moment.

So as per my understanding this is how it works. You book the car; Toyota dispatches it 7 - 10 days ahead of tentative delivery date.

Invoice is only generated once the dealerships confirms receipts of each vehicle in perfect condition ( I think this is a good thing as customers would be protected if any thing happens during transportation).

Once Indus receives confirmation from dealership; invoice is generated.

In my case and many others who booked around the same period, cars remained parked for more than 2 weeks as Toyota told dealership not to inform customers due to expected price decrease as people pressurize dealership for delivery once the cars are received.

[kmq007]

I think Toyota sends the sheet through email/fax to dealerships wherein all the details like engine number chassis numbers etc are mentioned against each customer.

The sheet also had the dispatch date details etc..

The car reached the dealership about 6 days before I accidentally learnt that its there. Then it remained there for another 9 days as they refused delivery saying Toyota has strictly instructed not to deliver any car before they give a go ahead.

And they told me that there is a chance that prices might decrease.. that's why Toyota has stopped deliveries.

[kmq007]

too am concerned about a delay in delivery of my car.

Brother, no way to know.. like I said it was totally accidental that I learnt about my car. Had I never had that call with the sales rep and his slip of tongue, I would never have learnt that my car is parked at the dealership.

Only if you have a deep contact at Indus or the dealership.

[kmq007]

What was your delivery month & when did you make the balance payment?

[Saqlain969]

5w50 would kill the new engine, nothing above w30..

[kmq007]

So, I went to the dealership today to get the cheque and also to get the FOB key checked.

They said isko kisi ghari walay ko check karwain .. wo cell change kar day ga..

I asked them are you for real... FOB Key ghari walay ko check karwaoon.. isn't it your job to get it fixed.. what if the ghari wala messes up my key.. then they said Sir humaray pass iskay cell nahin hain..apko market say karwana paray ga...

Disappointing...

Will check the manual how to change batteries.. I mean its a brand new car and one FOB key has weak batteries.

I will purchase the cell and then visit the dealership again to get it changed.... don't want to mess up my key..

Anyone knows if it's OK if I change the cell myself.. Wouldn't it need re-pairing once the battery has been removed and replaced or is it plug and play and the RFID chip automatically picks up and pairs the key with the MCU.

[saad.ikram.5688]

No need of any re pairing or re programming. Changing the cell is a pretty easy task. Just read the owners manual and do it at home.

[kmq007]

JazzakAllah khair, brother.

[hassamullahusmani]

I booked it on 10th July with full payment and delivery month was August and it's the ATIV X CVT variant in graphite gray colour so I did expect the delivery time to be more than the manual variants in white colour (people have been getting them earlier than the rest). The salesman says there's a shortage of parts due to shipping delays and bla bla bla so I don't know what to expect now.

[zubair.ah]

My prediction is you will get the car at the very end of August. Mine was same color and variant and got invoiced on 30th so expect your invoicing at end of month too
