Toyota Aygo X (2022-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Lots of standard equipment	A little short of power
Impressive fuel economy	Quite pricey
Decent space given its compact dimensions	Not that much fun to drive

Quick Summary

The Toyota Aygo X (pronounced 'Cross') is the third generation of Toyota's city car, but this time it has been reimagined as a small crossover SUV. Developed independently from its former partners Peugeot and Citroen, the Aygo X features distinctive, rugged styling but remains a front-wheel-drive car built for the city. It is powered by a single engine choice: a 72hp 1.0-litre petrol. Despite its compact dimensions, it offers a 231-litre boot and seating for four, making it surprisingly practical, though rear door access is somewhat narrow.

The Aygo X’s major selling point is its generous level of standard technology, including adaptive cruise control and a large touchscreen with smartphone integration on all models. It also delivers impressive fuel economy, consistently achieving over 50mpg. However, the engine feels underpowered and can be noisy when worked hard, making motorway journeys less relaxing. While its lightweight design makes it feel agile in town, the firm ride and lack of outright driver engagement mean rivals like the Hyundai i10 are more refined and fun to drive.

Best for: City drivers who value high levels of standard tech, excellent fuel economy, and distinctive crossover styling in a compact package.

Not ideal for: Buyers who frequently drive on motorways, need maximum practicality, or prioritise a fun and engaging driving experience.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Aygo X if: You’re a city driver who values high levels of standard technology, excellent fuel economy, and distinctive crossover styling.

Consider alternatives if: You need stronger performance for motorway driving, more interior space, or a more engaging driving experience.

Competitive Position: The Toyota Aygo X carves out a unique niche in the city car class with its SUV styling and outstanding level of standard equipment. It excels on fuel economy and comes with the reassurance of Toyota's potential 10-year warranty. However, it is more expensive and less powerful than accomplished rivals like the Hyundai i10 and Kia Picanto, while the Suzuki Ignis offers more practicality. It’s a compelling choice if style and technology are your top priorities.
