Catch the Toyota Ativ public experience at the BGC Amphitheater this October 24 to 26

The days are counting down to the much-anticipated public launch of the Toyota Ativ this coming October 24. If you want to catch the public launch and get up close and personal with the car, Toyota Motor Philippines will be putting up the Ativ Public Experience at the Bonifacio High Street Amphitheater.

From October 24 to 26, the guests can visit the area to check out all the different variants of the Toyota Ativ, and also test-drive them in person. There will be different activities, win prizes, and also talk with dealer marketing professionals for potential inquiries and reservations of the vehicle.

To reiterate, the Toyota Ativ comes in three different variants: the 1.3 E, the 1.5 G, and the 1.5 HEV. Here are their prices:

  • Ativ 1.3 E M/T – Php 916,000
  • Ativ 1.3 E CVT – Php 980,000
  • Ativ 1.5 G CVT – Php 1,069,000
  • Ativ 1.5 HEV CVT – Php 1,198,000

The main differences between the three variants are that the 1.3 E will be powered by a naturally aspirated 1.3-liter, four-cylinder gas engine (1NR-VE) that pushes out 98 horsepower and 122Nm of torque, mated either to a five-speed manual or a CVT.

Stepping up to the G trim gives you a more powerful naturally aspirated 1.5-liter, four-cylinder gas engine (2NR-VE) with 106 horsepower and 138Nm of torque, only available with a CVT.

Finally, the highly anticipated 1.5 HEV has a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine (2NR-VEX), an electric motor, and a lithium-ion battery. The engine alone produces 91 horsepower and 121Nm, with a total system output of 111 horsepower, also mated to a CVT.

With the vehicle’s launch imminent, are you looking to upgrade to the HEV variant, or will you be eyeing the gasoline variants?
