00:00Hi guys and welcome to DriveSpark, I'm Pramit and today what we are driving is the Toyota

00:12Dizer.

00:13Basically, you might have seen this car because this is the rebadged version of the Maruti

00:18Suzuki Fronz, but today we are not going to talk about what is different and what has

00:24changed from the Maruti Suzuki Fronz, I'll just tell you briefly, so let's quickly start

00:28this video and I'll tell you everything you need to know about this car.

00:43So let's start off with the things that have changed from the Maruti Suzuki Fronz over

00:47here, so at the front you see the grille is different, the DRL is different, when you

00:51go to the back you can see that the tail lamp, the housing is the same but the elements inside

00:56are slightly different and obviously it's a corrected tail lamp, so that is the majority

01:02difference and obviously you get a different set of alloy wheels on this and obviously

01:06a Toyota badge everywhere here and there, so that is the major difference, on the inside

01:11nothing has changed except Toyota badging over here, so apart from that, the car remains

01:17identical to the Maruti Suzuki Fronz.

01:19So now let's focus on this car, so starting off with the front end, you can see you get

01:23the LED DRL, it's pretty bright, the lower part of the bumper houses the headlamp unit,

01:29the obviously full LED cluster, you have a 360-degree camera, that means there's a camera

01:33on the front, two cameras on the ORVM, then one camera at the back and obviously the clarity

01:38is good, it is very precise, clarity could have been slightly better but I mean, it,

01:44you can do with it, that there's nothing, I mean, I'll just be nitpicking on the camera

01:49if I say that, so now moving on to the side, you can see you get a different design for

01:53the alloy wheels, alloy wheel looks good, you get body cladding, apart from that, you

01:57get body coloured ORVMs and you get roof rails, a shark fin antenna and if you see on the

02:02glass now, these are the UV cut glass, so they are slightly on the greener side, like

02:06in the greenish, looks good, absorbs mostly, like not all, but most of the UV glasses because

02:14UV cut glass, hence the name, so apart from that, if you move to the back, you will see

02:20that, again I mentioned that this gets LED tail lamp, so it gets a connected tail lamp

02:25and that connected tail lamp actually looks good, it's a full connected tail lamp and

02:30you also get a wiper with a washer, you get a small spoiler that makes the car look really

02:34nice, apart from that, if you open the boot, so there, you can open the boot via just one

02:42place and that is the request sensor, there is no boot opening over here, yeah, so after

02:46you open the boot, you will see that there is enough place for you to keep luggage for

02:524-5 people, I mean not fill it up completely, but yeah, 4 people easily, 5 people, a little

02:58tight squeeze, but you also get a parcel tray and basically this sums up the exterior.

03:05Now, if you talk about the pricing of this car, so this remains almost identical as the

03:09Maruti Suzuki Fronz, so why should you buy the Toyota Tizer and not the Fronz is, first

03:14of all, there are a couple of reasons, first is the Toyota badging, second is the service

03:18that Toyota offers is obviously, there is a one year additional service that you get

03:22along with the Tizer, so a couple of things here and there, you should, if you want to

03:25consider really and some people do consider the badge value or the brand value over here,

03:31so obviously, if they see a Toyota, it means more reliable.

03:35So, now let's move on to the interior, interior remains the same, you get the same 9-inch touch

03:47screen infotainment system, you get an MID screen, displays a lot of information about

03:52the car, two analogue, one is the speedometer and one is the tachometer and again, you have

03:57the fuel gauge and the temperature gauge that is again analogue, looks good, you get a heads-up

04:01display, now the heads-up display has a like a screen kind of a thing that pops up, obviously,

04:06it reflects from down, but it does not reflect on the windscreen like other cars, like other

04:10high-end cars, so they have a separate kind of a heads-up display, but I mean, it is pretty,

04:16I mean, you can read it good, it is readable, very crisp, you can adjust it here and there,

04:21so yeah, I mean, all of those things can be done, again, you can see that there's a,

04:25not triple, there is a four kind of a four colour finish on the dashboard,

04:30looks good, there is no soft-touch material, but it looks everywhere that it is kind of soft-touch

04:34material, though these are hard plastic, good quality plastics and these plastics are obviously

04:40painted to give the interior a much more aesthetic and a good appeal when you see it, so obviously,

04:46you can see this brown colour finish over here on the dashboard, on the door, nothing is soft-touch

04:51except this part of the door where you keep your elbow while you're driving, yes, everything you

04:57can see over here is hard plastic, but good quality plastic, I must say, you can see over

05:03here, right below the AC vents, you have your climate zone, obviously, single zone climate

05:07control, it's an automatic climate control, you also get a 12V charging socket, two cup holders

05:12and this is an automatic gearbox, so obviously, you get an automatic shifter, there is a manual

05:18also in this, so you have your wireless charging over there, some storage space over here and arm

05:24rest that you can adjust, seats are pretty comfortable, they are kind of bucket seats,

05:28hold you in place, apart from that, steering wheel is good, it's a flat one steering wheel,

05:32you have paddle shifters over here, you have a manual mode and you can take full control of the

05:36car, six-speed gearbox, steering motor controls remain the same, nothing has changed, again,

05:41you have three buttons over here that obviously help you in your voice command and taking and

05:46dropping calls from here as well, apart from that, if you notice, the AC vents are finished in brushed

05:53aluminium, gives an overall good aesthetic, there is no sunroof in this, obviously, the rear seat

05:58lacks one thing and that is, you get three adjustable headrests, but it lacks an arm rest,

06:03so I think arm rest should have been provided if two people are going, arm rest is definitely

06:09a good thing, you have rear AC vents, that is a good thing, you also have some place to keep your

06:14phone, some storage at the back of the seats, apart from that, the car is nice, let's talk about

06:21the engine, so this version is powered by the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine, so obviously,

06:33it's a 998cc turbo petrol engine and this pumps out around 100PS of power and 148Nm of peak torque,

06:40now the power and the torque on paper might not sound very good, but if you just floor it,

06:47this thing goes, I think, yeah, definitely, we'll be doing a 0-100 on the Toyota Tizer and

06:55please stay tuned to our YouTube shorts or Instagram, we'll be posting it on that,

06:59we can't post it over here, so we will be posting the 0-100 timing over there and this thing is

07:07decent, I mean, it is pretty quick, it is not slow, but it takes some time before the turbo

07:12spools in and after the turbo spools in, you can see, now, post 3000 RPM is where the power kicks

07:21in and it all, and it redlines all the way up to the 6200 or 6300 mark, apart from that, it also

07:28has a mild hybrid system, I mean, you can, there is a battery, there is a motor, you can see it

07:33over here, so the battery and the motor, basically, battery, the motor will assist you while you're

07:37cruising or while you need some extra amount of power just to assist that, it will not purely drive

07:43on the electric motor, once you are braking or once you are going a little fast, the battery will

07:50charge, the engine will charge the battery and again, the battery will be used for the automatic

07:54start-stop and giving you a little bit of assistance. So, suspension quality is good,

08:00car is pretty stable, you can take high speeds corner as well, not extremely high speed, but you

08:05can go pretty, I mean, you can literally speed up and take a corner, apart from that, steering is

08:12very, very sharp, like, just, I mean, shifting lanes is so easy in this, that, I mean, you just

08:18flick the steering wheel and the car moves the lane, very sharp steering wheel, also the gear

08:23shifts are smooth, they do not lag so much, it's a 6-speed torque converter gearbox, so yeah, I mean,

08:29it is nice. Overall, power delivery is linear at the start, it's got a good mid-range and a good

08:35top-end, triple-digit speeds come within no time and as we said, we will be posting a 0 to 100

08:40timing of this in, on our Instagram reels and our YouTube shorts, so you can go check that out,

08:46car is pretty good, apart from that, guys, if you talk about the pricing of this vehicle,

08:51so the Toyota Tizer is priced at Rs 7.8 lakh ex-showroom, it starts at that and it goes all

08:57the way up to the Rs 13.5 lakh mark, that's the ex-showroom price, this is the top-end variant,

09:03so obviously, this is the Rs 13.5 lakh, this carries the Rs 13.5 lakh, so you get all of this

09:08in that price range and, I mean, it is a pretty sorted car at the end of the day,

09:15if you talk about mileage, the company claims around 20 kilometres to a litre, right now we

09:19are doing city speeds and we are getting between, I mean, there is a lot of traffic on the road,

09:24but we are getting between, somewhere between 14 to 16 kilometres to a litre, that is pretty

09:30impressive, if you're cruising at around 80 to 100, I think this will push more than 20,

09:36for sure, there is no sport mode, there is no modes, driving modes for this, but this car

09:41definitely can pull off very good mileage. So yeah, guys, this was the Toyota Tizer and I hope

09:48you like this video, if you have anything to ask about this vehicle, please run down the comment

09:52section, we will get back to you on that, until then, I'm Promit signing out, see you next time,

09:56thanks so much for watching, take care, be safe and drive safe.
