The Toyota Verso is a compact MPV produced by the Japanese carmaker Toyota between 2009 and 2018 as the direct successor to the Corolla Verso and was available in five- or seven-seat configurations. It was positioned above the Verso-S/Space Verso in Toyota's European catalogue.
The "Verso" name is taken from the English word "versatility".
Overview
The Verso was revealed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show in March 2009. The Verso was marketed in Europe, Morocco, South Africa, China and Israel. It was not marketed in Japan, and not marketed in North America where the similar Matrix was offered instead. In South Africa, the only available diesel engine for the Verso range in South Africa is the 2.0L D-4D.{{cite web| url=http://www.iol.co.za/motoring/motorsport/miss-versotility-seven-seat-verso-goes-it-alone-1.840566 |title=Miss Versotility - seven-seat Verso goes it alone |work=IOL Motoring|access-date=2011-08-13 |date=2009-08-30}}
