2025 Toyota Aqua Released, Fuel Efficiency 35.4km/L, More Worth Buying Than Corolla

[PCauto] Against the backdrop of the global automotive market's continuous transition toward electrification, the Toyota Aqua, as a compact hybrid model from the brand, has always been renowned for its high efficiency and practicality.

The 2025 Toyota Aqua has been officially unveiled recently, drawing market attention once again with multiple technological upgrades and high fuel efficiency.

This model is built on the TNGA-B platform, achieving a new breakthrough in fuel consumption performance while introducing advanced technological features and safety systems, aiming to meet the diverse needs of urban commuting and short-distance travel.

2025 Toyota Aqua Achieves Remarkable Fuel Efficiency Performance

The 2025 Toyota Aqua is equipped with a 1.5-liter M15A-FXE three-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor hybrid system, delivering a total system output of 116 horsepower and paired with an E-CVT transmission.

The most striking feature is its ultra-low fuel consumption performance. Under the WLTC test standard, the 2025 Toyota Aqua achieves a combined fuel consumption of 34.3 km/L, with city driving fuel consumption rated at 35.4 km/L and highway fuel consumption rated at 32.2 km/L, meaning it can travel approximately 34.3 kilometers per liter of fuel.

The new car adopts a bi-polar nickel-hydrogen battery for the first time, reducing volume compared to traditional batteries but doubling the power, supporting more efficient energy recovery and acceleration performance.

In addition, the introduction of a single-pedal mode achieves an operation experience similar to that of a pure electric vehicle through the kinetic energy recovery system, reducing the use of the brake pedal and enhancing driving convenience and energy efficiency.

Technology and Safety Features are Another Highlight of the 2025 Toyota Aqua

The Smooth Stop braking system is applied to compact models for the first time, effectively suppressing body forward tilt and jerking during braking through precise control of front and rear braking forces, enhancing ride comfort.

The Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 safety package includes a new PDA (Proactive Driving Assist) function, which can identify pedestrians, bicycles, and parked vehicles, actively intervening in steering and braking to reduce collision risks.

Standard features also include full-speed adaptive cruise control (ACC), lane tracing assist (LTA), and an automatic parking function.

In terms of intelligent connectivity, the 2025 Toyota Aqua is equipped with a 10.5-inch floating central control screen, an electronic gear lever, and a panoramic camera, supporting Android Auto and other smartphone connectivity features.

Higher-end trims feature premium amenities​​ such as front seat massagers, headrest-mounted speakers, and ambient lighting, ​​enhancing both driver and passenger comfort.​

2025 Toyota Aqua Upgraded Interior Space

The 2025 Toyota Aqua has been upgraded based on the TNGA-B platform, with the wheelbase extended by 50mm to 2600mm. The body dimensions are 4080×1695×1485mm (1505mm for the roof rack version), with interior space comparable to the Corolla, offering passengers more spacious legroom and headroom.

The trunk design supports a lower floor extension, enhancing load capacity and practicality.

In addition, the sporty GR Sport version features exclusive front bumpers, 17-inch cut wheels, red calipers, and an upgraded suspension system, improving the vehicle's handling stability and visual appeal.

Toyota Aqua Offers Better Value for Money Than the Corolla

The 2025 Toyota Aqua is priced between 2,824,800-3,022,800 yen in Japan, equivalent to approximately 81,000 MYR - 86,000 MYR. This price range positions it as a more cost-effective option compared to the Toyota Corolla.

The 2025 Toyota Aqua achieves a balance of energy efficiency, technology, and practicality through technology sharing and platform upgrades.

Its low fuel consumption, advanced safety features, and space optimization make it particularly suitable for urban commuting and short-distance travel scenarios, continuing Toyota's traditional advantages in the hybrid field.
