The compactment Verso of the 3rd generation, which appeared before the general public in 2009 at the Geneva Motor Show, became the debut of the European Unit Toyota. Specialists from France worked on the design of the model, but they worked under the leadership of their colleagues from Japan. As for restyling 2013, it is about the first truly independent project of the European branch. In this project, the staff of the Toyota ED2 Design Bureau in Nice and the TME Technical Center in Belgium were involved. All the details about what they did - read in our review!
Design
In the process of updating the compacttvan acquired a new general corporate "face" and grew by 20 mm in length (up to 4.46 m): 15 mm fell on the front bumper, and 5 mm - to the rear bumper. Despite this, on the fact Verso remains the most compact model from those that can be bought with a 7-seater salon. 2nd compactness occupies Opel Zafira Family. - The difference in length is only 7 mm.
The new corporate style touched an exceptionally facial part of the body, and the back everything left unchanged. On the "stern" just slightly sharpened the bumper and the black diffuser appeared. Lanterns and other details of the rear restyling did not affect, because of which it is extremely difficult to find out the updated version of the "stern". True, LEDs are now used in the lanterns as emitters. The grave-chopped front of Verso contrasts slightly with a practically unchanged "feed". The predatory look of headlights with spectacular LED garlands is striking, between which the elegant radiator grille with chrome trim is located. We will meet such a car on the road - involuntarily concern. In general, the restyling Ven looks like a cute solid car for every day.
Design
Despite the fact that in the 1-generation Verso was called Corolla Verso, his own platform is unique and has nothing to do with the Corolla chassis. The suspension scheme is as follows: the front is McPherson, and the back is a curly beam. During the upgrades, the shock absorbers on both axes changed the settings, the rigidity of the parts of the front suspension increased and new struts were applied. The rigidity of the back of the body increased due to 34 additional points Welding, and in addition, the programs were rewritten responsible for the work of Eura, which, according to Toyota engineers, led to a slight improvement in manageability.
Adaptation to Russian conditions
For ride on Russian roads, Verso is not more adapted than the overwhelming number of other urban cars, since at its disposal only front-wheel drive And modest clearance - 145 mm in the 5-seater version and 155 mm in the 7-seater option. In the trunk, depending on the configuration, the full-size spare or dance is stored; In the "base" there is a regular air conditioner, in the "Top" - separate climate control; Heated with heated seats of the 1st row and side mirrors, and the affordable gasoline engines prefer fuel with octane number not lower than 95.
Comfort
Thanks to restyling inside the companktva, it became noticeably quiet - due to soundproofing mats between the interior and motor compartment. Architectural or layout innovations in the cabin is not observed - only a slightly changed the style of finishing and the finishing materials were significantly improved. For interior design, soft plastic is mainly used, and the steering wheel is covered with high-end skin Nappa (in all configurations, except for the initial). The central armrest is also closed in excellent skin. Matte decorative inserts of silver color are appropriate and look good on the background of dark details. The quality of the assembly does not cause complaints. White color backlighting in the new dashboard is much more pleasant for the eyes, compared with the former amber backlight, and for readability it is an unconditional plus. The devices are located like in Toyota Prius. - In the very center of Torpedo, which is unusual for many drivers.
Places for storing things in the cabin, as before, abound, and the upper part of the dummy mustache has a cooling property. Folding tables in the backs of the chairs of the 1st row are very comfortable, with cup holders. In the form of the option, a glass panoramic roof is available, which in the summer increases the level of comfort at times. Front seats are distinguished by a properly selected profile and not too pronounced lateral support. The presence of full-fledged individual chairs on the 2nd row (modifications are offered and from the 3rd nearby, where, by tradition, it is necessary to keep up with difficulty) and even the floor say that all rear seats will be comfortable in the same extent. Those who sits on the "gallery" are deprived by side glazing and excessive space for the legs - for the sake of unnecessary expanses they will have to be asked to be sitting in front. As you should expect from a compact machine, the trunk of Verso is medium-specific - it is placed from 484 to 1026 liters. boosted (with folded rear seats). With the full load of the passengers for luggage, the 7-seater version is enough at best for a pair of small suitcases.
To assess the level of security Verso, you need to look at the results of the crash tests of the European independent Organization EURO NCAP. In the tests carried out in 2010, the compacttwan earned 5 stars out of 5 possible, demonstrating the following results: Protecting the driver or adult passenger - 89%, child protection - 75%, pedestrian protection - 69%, electronic assistants - 86%. Achieve such results allowed a rich equipment that already in the basic performance includes frontal and side airbags, "curtains", anti-lock and anti-test system, as well as systems stabilization and distribution of brake forces. For extra charge, parking sensors are offered ("in a circle"), light and rain sensors, cruise control and rear view camera with dynamic markings.
All verso cars, except the most inexpensive versions, are equipped with a multimedia Toyota Touch 2 complex with a 6.1-inch color touchscreen, 6-channel acoustics and navigation. AUX / USB connectors and Bluetooth wireless protocol are responsible for connecting gadgets. The location of the AUX and USB inputs is not too successful - on the sidewall of the central tunnel from the passenger side, where flash drives and wires will constantly be at risk of damage from the feet of the saddles. Navigation works clearly, only with the rusification of the problem - which is one of the spaticrous words "eaten" and "sway", which are the rules of the Russian language. With graphics and speed of the media system, everything is in order, the sound is acceptable.

It is not difficult to distinguish the novelty from the predecessor. Stylish elongated headlight headlamps with linase optics are thrown into the eyes. The grill of the radiator adjoins the lighting and consists of two slots with chrome plated overlays. Under it, on the front bumper, there is a massive air intake, which gives the front of the car a rather aggressive look. On the sides of him, in special recesses, you can see a couple round fog lights. In general, the car received a completely new, rapid and memorable design. If the model seemed quite boring and faceless to restyling, then the novelty is on the contrary, it looks even too dynamic for its destination.
