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.[1]

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 Template:Cvt, and a 1.4 L turbo-diesel I4 engine rated at Template:Cvt.

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.[2] Information from Toyota later suggested, however, that only Aygos with automatic gearboxes were affected, and that those with manual gearboxes were not.[3]

The Aygo received its first facelift, replacing the front bumper shape from the original, and changing the rear lights to a transparent appearance, from their original red tinted cluster. A revised clutch was fitted from this model onwards.[16]

2012–2014 (AB30)

The Aygo received its second facelift, this time incorporating a more angular bumper with the inclusion of daytime running lights (DRL).[17]

Reliability

Breakdown statistics reported by the German Automobile Club in May 2010 placed the Aygo (which the data grouped with the Citroën C1 and Peugeot 107) at the top of the sub small car class, in respect of the low breakdown rates achieved for cars aged between one and four years.[18][19]

Toyota Aygo Crazy rear

In 2008, Toyota created a driveable one off concept car based on the Toyota Aygo with a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout. Named the Aygo Crazy, it was unveiled to the public at the July 2008 British International Motor Show in London, before appearing at other motor shows that year based in the United Kingdom.[21]

The Aygo Crazy has a Japanese-built 1ZZ-FE 1.8 litre VVT-i engine, mated to a five speed manual gearbox, both from the Toyota MR2, fitted with a Toyota Motorsport turbocharger conversion. The manufacturer claims the engine produces Template:Convert at 6,700 rpm and Template:Convert torque at 3,400 rpm.

Weighing just Template:Convert, this gives it a Template:Convert sprint time of 5.75 seconds and a theoretical top speed of Template:Convert, though the latter has not been tested. Unlike the standard Aygo, it has no driver aids, power steering or anti-lock brakes.

Exterior modifications include wider arches to accommodate the one inch of extra track, 17 inch alloy wheels with Goodyear tyres and a carbon fibre rear spoiler designed for the Template:Convert American Champ Car series.

Suspension is from the MR2, with adjustable Tein shock absorbers and MacPherson struts front and rear. To cope with the extra power, Toyota upgraded the standard Template:Convert front brake discs to a Template:Convert Brembo conversion, with Template:Convert ventilated rear discs replacing the Template:Convert drums normally found on the Aygo. An uprated Helix clutch is also used.

The interior features a partial roll cage for extra chassis rigidity and driver protection. Two specially designed sports seats, trimmed in red and black, and a suede rimmed Sparco steering wheel complete the race-inspired look.

Toyota claims the Aygo Crazy cost Template:GBP to build.[22]

BYD F0

From 2008 to 2015, and again from 2019 to 2020, the Chinese car manufacturer BYD Auto has produced the BYD F0, an unlicensed clone of the Toyota Aygo.[23]

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.[33][34][35]
