Toyota’s Aygo X city car has been released at a time when many brands are leaving the segment. So with more opportunity to steal a significant slice of the market, what does Toyota’s latest model offer to tempt you from the likes of the Volkswagen up! or Hyundai i10?

Unlike its predecessor, which shared tech with the mechanically identical Citroen C1 and Peugeot 108, this time the Japanese giant’s city car has gone it alone. To make the most of the brand’s in-house know-how, the Aygo is based on a shortened version of the platform used by the Yaris. The Aygo X is quite a bit longer than its predecessor, however, but at 3.7 metres, it’s still a compact city-focused machine - albeit one with an SUV inspired twist. A jacked-up body and plastic body protection give it a more serious look, but despite the new underpinnings, the Aygo X uses a 1.0-litre three-cylinder motor that traces its roots all the way back to the original, 2005 Aygo. Will this be its undoing? Nicola Hume finds out in this full review.
