Toyota Belta

The XP90 series Vitz and Belta share underpinnings with each other including the powertrain and platform. However, while the Vitz was designed at Toyota's French design studio (Toyota ED²), the Belta was designed at Toyota's Japanese design studio (TMC Design Division){{cite web|url=https://www.maplewoodtoyota.com/toyota-yaris-chronology.htm|title=Toyota Yaris Chronology|publisher=Maplewood Toyota|access-date=23 October 2024}}

— design projects for similar cars marketed toward different demographics. While the outgoing XP10 series Vitz and Platz models look and feel very much alike, the newer Vitz hatchback and Belta sedan are more subtly related. No sheetmetal is shared between the two, and although both have a similar centralized dashboard design (Toyota's efforts to standardize the design for all markets, left or right hand drive at the time), there are some cosmetic differences. It has a {{Cd|0.29|link=car|long=yes}}, marginally more aerodynamic than its hatchback counterpart.{{cite web|url=https://www.motordays.com/newcar/articles/belta20060114/|title=トヨタ ベルタ 1.0X 新車試乗記（第398回)|language=Japanese|date=14 January 2006|publisher=Motor Days}}

The Belta and global market Yaris sedan were manufactured in Japan, while the Vios nameplate was manufactured in either China, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand or Vietnam.

For the Chinese and Southeast Asian markets, the Belta was sold as the second generation Vios. However, the sedan was sold as the Yaris sedan in the Middle East and several countries in South Asia.{{cite web|url=http://www.toyota.com.kw/english/toyota_models.asp|title=Passenger Vehicle|publisher=Toyota Kuwait|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080703133114/http://www.toyota.com.kw/english/toyota_models.asp|archive-date=3 July 2008}}{{cite web|url=http://www.amartoyota.com/yaris.php|title=Yaris|publisher=Amar Toyota Bangladesh|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080226020329/http://www.amartoyota.com/yaris.php|archive-date=26 February 2008}}

Debuted in November 2005, the Japanese market Belta had three engine variants available, namely the {{convert|71|PS|kW hp|abbr=on}} 1.0 L 1KR-FE straight-three engine (KSP92) and two variants of the 1.3 L inline-four engines, 2NZ-FE (NCP96) or 2SZ-FE (SCP92), both rated at {{convert|87|PS|kW hp|abbr=on}}. The 1KR-FE and 2SZ-FE engines comes with Super CVT-i transmission and not available elsewhere, while the 2NZ-FE engine has a 4-speed Super ECT transmission and only available with AWD system as standard. The sedan was offered with two trim levels; X (available with sporty "S Package" option) and G. The 1.0 L engine is not available for the G trim and the AWD system is available for both trims with the 1.3 L 2NZ-FE engine. In October 2006, the cheaper model called "Business Package" was introduced, aimed for the company fleet market. It is basically X trim with less equipments.{{cite web |url=https://toyota.jp/ucar/catalog/brand-TOYOTA/car-BELTA/ |title=ベルタ |trans-title=Belta |language=Japanese |publisher=Toyota |location=Japan |access-date=2022-12-29}}

The Belta received a facelift in August 2008, the exterior was updated with new honeycomb grille, new mirror wings with blinker and redesign hubcaps. For the interior, the instrument cluster and seat upholstery were redesigned, the driver's seat was also equipped with heater for the G trim. The sporty "S Package" was also abolished (although it was still available as dealer optional accessories for every trim) and being replaced by luxury "L Package" (added some equipment from G trim such as driver's heated seat, automatic climate control etc.). The sedan was discontinued for the Japanese market in 2012 and succeeded by the Corolla Axio, although it was still produced for the export market until 2016.

The second generation Vios was unveiled in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on 5 October 2007, two weeks ahead of its official launch on 19 October 2007.{{cite web|author=Paul Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2007/10/05/2007-toyota-vios-details-and-photos/ |title=2007 Toyota Vios details and photos |publisher=paultan.org |date=2007-10-05 |access-date=2007-10-06}} The Vios is powered exclusively by the same 1NZ-FE 1.5 L four-cylinder engine with VVT-i used in the old Vios, but included a redesigned air intake and exhaust system to improve low to mid-range torque. It was also fitted with the Super ECT four-speed automatic with the same gear ratios as its predecessor, but with improved programming for the transmission control unit. Electric power steering was offered in place of the hydraulic system in its predecessor.

The second generation Vios was made available in four trim levels for the Malaysian market: J, E, G and S.

The J is the base version. It was initially unavailable at the Malaysian Vios launch in October 2007, but was introduced on 1 July 2008, offering a choice of either 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmissions.{{cite web|author=Paul Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2008/07/01/new-toyota-vios-j-spec-manual-and-auto/ |title=New 2009 Toyota Vios J Spec Manual and Auto |publisher=paultan.org |date=2008-07-01 |access-date=2013-11-17}}

The E and G differ mostly in terms of equipment levels and are mechanically identical, both sharing the 4-speed Super ECT transmission.{{cite web|author=Paul Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2007/09/12/new-toyota-vios-line-up-teaser-with-prices/ |title=New Toyota Vios line-up teaser with prices |publisher=paultan.org |date=2007-09-12 |access-date=2013-11-17}}

The S is an addition featuring cosmetic enhancements, including a front bumper spoiler, side skirts, rear skirt and a bootlid spoiler. The interior received a dark grey/black trim treatment and an Optitron meter with a multi-information display, as opposed to the E and G trims' conventional backlit display. The S trim was the most expensive Vios variant. On 17 June 2009, UMW Toyota launched the Vios 1.5 TRD Sportivo which effectively replaced the S trim.{{cite web|author=Paul Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2009/06/17/toyota-vios-1-5-trd-sportivo-arrives-in-malaysia-replaces-the-vios-1-5s/ |title=Toyota VIOS 1.5 TRD Sportivo arrives in Malaysia, replaces the Vios 1.5S! |publisher=paultan.org |date=2009-06-17 |access-date=2013-11-17}} It featured a body kit, Enkei wheels, various interior trim improvements and an optional sports suspension kit.

On 15 April 2010, the Vios received a facelift in Malaysia, offering mostly cosmetic improvements.{{cite web|author=Danny Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2010/04/15/facelifted-toyota-vios-launched-rm72k-to-rm92k/ |title=Toyota Vios Facelift for M'sia launched: RM72K-RM92K! |publisher=paultan.org |date=2010-04-15 |access-date=2013-11-17}} The Vios TRD Sportivo was updated on 29 June 2011, featuring a redesigned grille, unique alloy wheels and leather seats. Another new grade positioned between G and TRD Sportivo called the G Limited was also introduced offering a body kit, 15-inch alloy wheels and leather seats.{{cite web|author=Danny Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2011/06/29/toyota-vios-1-5g-limited-launched-trd-sportivo-updated/ |title=Toyota Vios 1.5G Limited launched, TRD Sportivo updated |publisher=paultan.org |date=2011-06-29 |access-date=2013-11-17}} The Vios was updated on 21 June 2012 in response to Honda Malaysia's facelift of the fifth generation City, with appearance changes without significant mechanical improvements.{{cite web|author=Anthony Lim |url=http://paultan.org/2012/06/21/toyota-vios-enhanced-for-2012-rm73k-to-rm92k/ |title=Toyota Vios enhanced for 2012 – RM73k to RM92k |publisher=paultan.org |date=2012-06-21 |access-date=2013-11-17}}

All model grades included ABS with EBD and BA at the October 2007 launch, but the E trim was only offered with a single driver's airbag, whereas the G and S trims had an additional passenger airbag. The J trim had no airbags at all upon its July 2008 launch, but was nonetheless offered with ABS + EBD and BA. The J trim later received a driver's airbag in its 2010 facelift and a front passenger airbag in its 2012 update.

The Malaysian Vios was assembled locally by ASSB, a subsidiary of UMW Toyota, in Shah Alam, Selangor. The Vios has since become the best selling non-national badged vehicle in Malaysia, achieving record sales in 2012.{{cite web|author=Danny Tan |url=http://paultan.org/2013/01/21/umw-toyota-achieves-all-time-record-sales-in-2012/ |title=UMW Toyota achieves all-time record sales in 2012 |publisher=paultan.org |date=2013-01-21 |access-date=2013-11-17}}

The second generation Vios was launched in August 2007 and assembled locally by Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) at their production plant in Santa Rosa, Laguna. Toyota spent PHP 1 billion to retool the plant in preparation for the assembly of the sedan in the Philippines.{{cite web|url=https://www.gmanetwork.com/news/money/companies/50728/toyota-to-start-local-production-of-vios-this-month/story/|title=Toyota to start local production of Vios this month|date=12 July 2007|website=www.gmanetwork.com}} As before, it was available in three trim levels: 1.3 J, 1.3 E and 1.5 G.

To commemorate TMP's 20th anniversary, the 1.5 G XX Limited was introduced in August 2008, with a total production of only 800 units. This is the same as the G trim, but came with HID headlights, 17-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels and a small spoiler.{{cite web|url=https://www.autoindustriya.com/auto-industry-news/toyota-launches-vios-xx-limited-edition.html|title=Toyota launches Vios XX Limited Edition|date=10 August 2008|website=www.autoindustriya.com}} In July 2009, another limited edition called 1.5 S was added to the line up.

The facelifted model was launched in April 2010 with the same appearance as other market Vios. For 2012, the 1.3 L 2NZ-FE engine for the G trim was released, and it was mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission, then later a 5-speed manual transmission, equipped with fog lights and 15-inch alloy wheels. Three new trims were also available from 2012, new cheapest trim called 1.3 Base, a trim slotted between the J and E trims called the 1.3 J Limited which added fog lights, 15-inch alloy wheels, front passenger airbag and more colors option from the E trim, and a limited edition based on 1.5 G trim called the SE Limited, distinguished by its Belta/Yaris sedan-style black grille. The 1.5 TRD Sportivo trim was released in 2013, replacing the SE Limited. However, it did not come with a body kit like in neighboring countries.

The second generation Vios (and Limo) was officially launched to the Indonesian market in April 2007, imported from Thailand.{{cite web|url=https://www.suarasurabaya.net/ekonomibisnis/2007/Toyota-Andalkan-VIOS-Generasi-Baru/|title=Toyota Andalkan VIOS Generasi Baru|first=Noer|last=Soetantini|date=13 April 2007|language=Indonesian|publisher=Suara Surabaya}} The sedan was marketed with backronym "Very Intelligent, Outstanding Sedan!".{{cite web |url=https://www.veikl.com/d/Toyota-Vios-Brochure-2007-EN-12203/3|title=Toyota Vios Brochure 2007 (Indonesia)|website=www.veikl.com|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220912114412/https://www.veikl.com/d/Toyota-Vios-Brochure-2007-EN-12203/3|archive-date=12 September 2022}} Like the outgoing NCP42, the NCP93 Vios was offered in Limo (exclusively for taxi fleet), E and G trim levels and powered by the same 1.5 L 1NZ-FE engine. The Indonesian market Vios (excluding Limo) can be distinguished from other markets Vios with its V-shaped grille ornament.

The E and G trims come equipped with ABS with EBD and BA (2007–2008 model only for Limo),{{cite web|url=https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/toyota-general/vios/NCP93R/14393/electric/8414|title=ABS & VSC for Toyota Vios (NCP93R-BEMDKD)|website=www.amayama.com}} driver's side airbag, 2-DIN audio system, power window, window and power door lock and wing mirrors with electric adjuster and retract as standard. The highest grade G trim received more safety and convenience features such as passenger's side airbag, immobilizer, rear disc brake, rear parking sensor and keyless entry for the automatic transmission model. For the interior, both the Limo and E trims has full black interior color and additional power windows, power door and windows lock, fabric seat upholstery and door trim as standard for the latter. Meanwhile, the G trim has two tone black and beige colors combination plus additional leather wrapped steering wheel, audio control on the steering wheel, start/stop button for automatic transmission model, blue-colored optitron instrument cluster with multi-information display and 60:40 split back seat. For the exterior, the Limo can be distinguished by the use of 14-inch steel wheels, blinkers on the front fender, the lack of third stop light and unpainted door handles and trunk ornament. The middle E trim received V-shaped ornament on the front grille, side body moulding, blinkers on wing mirrors, body colored trunk ornament and 14-inch alloy wheels. The top of the line G trim added the front and rear fog lamps, auto-leveling HID headlamps, 15-inch alloy wheels, keyless entry button for the automatic transmission model and chrome ornament on the trunk.

The facelifted model was introduced in April 2010 and followed the same exterior appearance as the Southeast Asian and Chinese market.{{cite web|url=https://nasional.kompas.com/read/2010/04/06/10221684/news|title=Toyota Luncurkan Vios Baru "Facelift" dengan Harga Lama|date=6 April 2010|publisher=Kompas}} The interior is also slightly changed with the silver ornaments and new flat-bottom style steering wheel, chrome gate shift for G automatic trim and back seat with armrest. The safety is also enhanced with automatic door lock for both trims and standard rear parking sensors for the E trim. In addition to the regular trim levels, there was also a TRD Sportivo model based on the G trim which adds an all-round body kit to the exterior and comes fitted with an AV DVD player and navigational capabilities. Meanwhile, the Limo did not receive any improvement.

In Singapore, the Vios was sold in the base model J, the mid-level E and the top-of-the-line G trim levels, and later the TRD Sportivo model.

All models have ABS with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist (BA). As before, the sedan was sourced from Thailand.

Initially available with either manual or automatic gearbox, the J trim is the lowest version and comes standard with a CD/MP3/WMA player with 4 speakers, keyless entry, driver-only SRS airbag and interior fabric with dark grey colour seats.

The E trim is the only manual variant after the local dealer discontinued the manual J variant in Singapore. The E Classic includes an additional SRS airbag for the front passenger and side moulding. There is another variant of the E trim known as the Elegance that includes leather seats and fog lights.

The G trim is the top-of-the-line version available in Singapore and only came with an automatic transmission. The G has standard Optitron meters with multi-information display, steering wheel with audio switches, leather-wrapped steering wheel and gear knob, four-wheel disc brakes, and 60:40 split foldable rear seats.{{citation |type=brochure|title=All New Vios My Design, My Pride|publisher=Borneo Motors|location=Singapore|date=2008}}

Optional "Sport" and “Racing” bodykit were offered in late 2008 featuring aftermarket alloy wheels, red stitching on the leather seats and floor mats, gear knob, brushed studded pedals and badging to denote these models in its special run. These were available as optional extras by the Toyota dealership in Singapore (Borneo Motors). With the facelift in 2011, three colours were added – Grey Metallic (1G3), Attitude Black Mica (211) and Blackish Red Mica (3R0) – to make 7 colours in total. In December 2012, Borneo Motors (Singapore) introduced a "Sportivo" variant based on the E grade, consisting of a TRD sports kit and 15-inch TRD multi-spoke alloy wheels. Trims were also split into LX Classic and LX Elegance for the J and E variants. These were offered as a cost effective measure for customers who wanted the variant in base form or with extras such as leather seats, piano black interior trims and solar film. In 2013, only the E grade remained in the lineup for the Vios.

In Thailand, the second generation Vios was offered in three trim levels; J, E and G, as well as two limited edition trim levels; G Limited and S Limited. Thailand was the only country that offers all existing grades of the Vios, while export markets are only given a fraction of the Thai range in varying combinations. In addition, certainly the range of equipment in Thai Vios' differs from those in export versions.

The J is the basic trim level of the second generation Vios, offering a CD/MP3/WMA player with four speakers, an optional keyless entry with TVSS, ABS/EBD/BA, 15-inch steel wheels with hubcaps, rear fog lamps and interior fabric with dark grey colour seat.

The limited edition S Limited trim features a "Wrap-Around Aeropart" body kit, an orange "Optitron" panel with a multi-information display, HID headlamps with automatic height adjustment and all-wheel disc brakes.

Audio systems in all second generation Vios trim levels are equipped with ASL (Auto-Speed Sound Levelizer), which detects and compensates for changes in external noise levels, adjusting volume and tone controls automatically based on the car's speed.

In 2008, some of J and E trims features were downgraded. The J trim now comes with 14-inch steel wheels without hubcaps, the rear fog lights and driver's seat back pockets were also deleted. For the E trim, the driver's seat back pocket was also deleted, along with the deletion of dual SRS airbag option and turn signals on wing mirrors.

In March 2009, a limited edition called GT Street Version was introduced. The new model was based on the J trim with additional all-around body kits, trunk spoiler, 15-inch alloy wheels from XP90 Yaris, automatic transmission, exhaust pipe with stainless steel cover, body stickers, leather-wrapped steering wheel, sport seat and red-black dual tone interior. It was only available for 1,000 units.{{cite web|url=https://www.autospinn.com/2009/03/toyota-vios-gt-street-%E0%B8%A3%E0%B8%96%E0%B8%AA%E0%B9%84%E0%B8%95%E0%B8%A5%E0%B9%8C%E0%B8%AA%E0%B8%9B%E0%B8%AD%E0%B8%A3%E0%B9%8C%E0%B8%95%E0%B9%83%E0%B8%AB%E0%B8%A1%E0%B9%88-%E0%B9%80%E0%B8%9B|title=Toyota Vios GT Street รถสไตล์สปอร์ตใหม่ เปิดตัวที่ 5.79 แสนบาท เพียง 1,000 คันเท่านั้น|date=3 March 2009|language=Thai|website=www.autospinn.com}}

In 2010 facelift, the J trim received immobilizer system, new steering wheel design for trims above J and the introduction of ES trim based on the E trim but equipped with dual airbags and automatic only. TRD Sportivo model was later released as the successor of GT Street edition. Still based on the J trim, it was limited to 3,000 units.{{cite web|url=https://www.headlightmag.com/Toyota-VIOS-TRD1786/|title=Toyota VIOS TRD Sportivo : รุ่นพิเศษ 3,000 คัน เท่านั้น|date=9 September 2010|language=Thai|website=www.headlightmag.com}} Another 4,200 units of TRD Sportivo model was released in October 2011, the new version received new 15-inch alloy wheels.{{cite web|url=https://www.headlightmag.com/Toyota-Vios-TRD3140/|title=Toyota Vios TRD Sportivo II : เวอร์ชันเอาใจคนชอบรถแต่งสวย เสร็จจากโรงงาน|date=3 October 2011|language=Thai|website=www.headlightmag.com}}

Lifan made a copy of Vios with different front and rear fascia and marketed as the 530. It was also rebadged and sold in Ghana as Kantanka Amoanimaa.

The Belta went on sale in North America in March 2006 for the 2007 model year, being badged as the Yaris sedan, since these markets use the Yaris nameplate for the 3-door (last model year of availability there was 2008) and 5-door Vitz hatchbacks (marketed as Yaris "liftback"), respectively.

In the United States, the Yaris sedan is available with modular convenience, power, and all-weather guard packages, contrasting with the global Belta's conventional trim levels. However, the Yaris sedan was also available as the Yaris S, which has standard convenience package and all-around body kit. The power package on the Yaris sedan offers alloy wheels, power windows, power door locks, power mirrors, ABS with EBD, cruise control and several convenience features as option.

The Canadian version is being based on the US-market Yaris S with power and all-weather guard packages, but with standard {{convert|14|in|mm|adj=on}} wheels. The regular CE, LE and RS trims used in the Canadian Yaris hatchback are replaced in the Yaris sedan by option packages of B, C, D or Aero types. The B adds 15-inch all-season tires, chrome trim on the decklid, front and rear splash guards, colour-keyed door handles, blacked-out side window frames, keyless entry and power door locks; the C adds ABS, air conditioning, power windows, colour-keyed mirrors and power mirrors; the D adds both side and side-curtain airbags; the Aero adds alloy wheels, wheel locks, a rear spoiler and a body kit. The Aero, however, has neither air conditioning nor side airbags. The Canadian model lacks the two-tone interior, pseudo-metallic trim on the door panels and the new audio system controls (instead it uses an old design) found on the Japanese and American models.

The 2007 Yaris sedan received EPA fuel economy ratings of {{convert|40|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} on the highway and {{convert|34|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} in the city, with a fuel capacity of {{convert|42|L|gal|1|abbr=on}}. However, because the EPA changed the way they calculate fuel economy, ratings were revised for the 2008 model year and the Yaris was rated at {{convert|29|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} city/{{convert|36|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} mpg highway for the manual transmission, and {{convert|29|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} mpg city/{{convert|35|mpgus|km/L|1|abbr=on}} mpg highway for the automatic version.{{cite web |url=http://www.jbcarpages.com/toyota/yaris/2008/ |title=2008 Toyota Yaris Review and Specs |publisher=JB car pages |access-date=2008-08-13}}

The Japanese market Belta retains the 1.3 L 2NZ-FE engine for its all-wheel drive model, similar to the Platz. However, the 1.5 L 1NZ-FE engine is not available for the Belta. Instead, two new engines are offered exclusively for this market: the straight-three 1.0 L 1KR-FE engine, which replaces the older inline-four 1.0 L 1SZ-FE engine, and the additional 1.3 L 2SZ-FE engine. These new engines were co-developed with Daihatsu and are only available with a CVT and front-wheel drive.

As for the Yaris sedan and Vios, it retained the same 1.3 L 2NZ-FE and 1.5 L 1NZ-FE engines from their predecessors. A non-VVTi version of the smaller engine is also available for markets that still use leaded petrol.{{cite web|url=http://www.toyotanigeria.com/Yaris.html|title=Products|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121017110232/http://www.toyotanigeria.com/Yaris.html|archive-date=17 October 2012|publisher=Toyota Nigeria Limited}}

The 5-speed C-series manual transmissions were also changed from C150/154 to the newer C50/54. However, the U441E and U340E 4-speed automatic transmissions were also retained, with the latter now requiring low-viscosity ATF-WS automatic transmission fluid type instead of ATF-IV.{{cite web|url=https://www.scribd.com/doc/70635712/U340-441E-Description|title=U340E and U441E Automatic Transaxles: Jdescription|website=www.scribd.com}}

In China, the base model Vios is powered by a 1.3 L 2NZ-FE engine just like the international model, which uniquely replaced the 2SZ-FE engine. The higher model, however, boasts a bigger 1.6 L 1ZR-FE Dual VVT-i engine from Corolla, rather than the 1.5 L 1NZ-FE engine used in the previous Vios.
