Today, Toyota Ireland, revealed the all-new Aygo X Hybrid. The Aygo X compact crossover takes fun-to-drive and efficiency to the next level by introducing full hybrid technology to its segment for the first time. The Aygo X Hybrid is expected to land on Irish roads in 2026.
Designed and produced in Europe to bring a stylish solution to the demands of everyday life, the Toyota Aygo X is a unique and stylish crossover in the A-segment. With the arrival of the Aygo X Hybrid, Toyota Ireland completes its shift to a fully electrified passenger car range, reinforcing its commitment to carbon reductions and sustainable mobility.
Fun & Fuel Efficient
Toyota’s latest hybrid technology means the new Aygo X Hybrid has more power and sharper acceleration for a more engaging, and more efficient driving experience.
The Aygo X Hybrid also boasts an 18%* carbon footprint reduction over the entire vehicle life cycle compared to its predecessor, thanks to its efficient powertrain and improvements in production and logistics. The benefits of full hybrid make the new Aygo X an ideal partner for modern driving, with class-leading CO2 emissions of 86 g CO2/km* resulting in a low VRT.
The overall system power output is increased by 44 DIN hp compared to the previous non-hybrid version, reaching a maximum of 116 DIN hp* and giving the Aygo X Hybrid the agility desired for dynamic driving, with zero to 100 km/h acceleration in under 10 seconds.
Peace of mind
The Aygo X Hybrid is now quieter and smoother to drive for all passengers thanks to new noise damping components. Dash silencers, bonnet insulation and engine underbody cover combined with an updated exhaust system and silencer to create a peaceful journey. On higher grades, an even more serene drive comes via other noise reduction measures, including thicker window glass and additional sound proofing throughout the body.
Safety is a priority for all Toyotas, large and small, so the new Aygo X Hybrid also benefits from comprehensive safety and driver assistance package, as a result of Toyota Safety Sense technology. This includes enhanced Pre-Collision System, Lane Trace Assist and Road Sign Assist features, as well as new Emergency Driving Stop System and Proactive Driving Assist. For the first time on an Aygo X, Toyota Safety Sense benefits from over the air updates to ensure the latest protection.
For the first time, Aygo fans looking to make the move to electrified driving will be able to avail of Toyota’s Hybrid Battery Extended Care Programme with the Aygo X Hybrid. The programme was carefully developed to provide hybrid drivers with reassuring protection in the unlikely event of the hybrid battery failing. It offers a 15 year or unlimited mileage warranty once the car is serviced with a Toyota Dealership.
An instinct driven journey
The Aygo X’s impulsive, “ready to go” attitude is updated for the latest version with a stylish all-new front design that displays an advanced, high-tech approach whilst emphasising its compact SUV identity.
A new hood, new headlamps and new front grille create a stronger stance and the impression of a low centre of gravity. That stance is enhanced by 17- or 18-inch alloy wheels, depending on the grade, and black flared wheel arches.
The optional bi-tone colour scheme boldly adds to the car’s dynamic presence, with black extending seamlessly from the roof across the rear and down to the side sills while refined exterior colour options draw inspiration from a ‘mellow spice’ concept, expressed through the distinctive Cinnamon, Jasmin, Tarragon, and Lavandula palettes. An exclusive canvas roof style, which incorporates front grille-inspired elements in a unique gradation pattern, is also introduced as an option on higher grades.
Despite its compact external dimensions, the new Aygo X Hybrid maximises interior space with a high driving position for superior visibility. Four passengers can sit in comfort, and there is space to carry anything from everyday essentials to larger luggage, thanks to the 231-litre boot capacity.
A renewed, clean interior design elevates experience which is more enjoyable, convenient and connected. A new 7-inch digital combi-meter and heater control panel create a more sophisticated, modern look, while an electronic parking brake comes as standard on all grades, as do two USB-C charging ports. A new wireless smartphone charger, a digital key, powered folding mirrors, and nanoeX™ technology for improved air quality are also available on higher grades.
Commenting on the unveiling, Zoë Bradley, Head of Marketing Communications and Corporate Affairs in Toyota Ireland said, “We are thrilled to unveil the all-new Aygo X Hybrid to Irish customers. For two decades, the Aygo has been a much-loved part of the Irish motoring landscape, thanks to its ready-for-action design and agility. The new Aygo X builds on that legacy, introducing full hybrid technology to its segment for the first time, delivering not just greater efficiency but also enhanced power and a more dynamic driving experience.
“With the introduction of this model, Toyota will no longer offer pure petrol passenger cars in Ireland, marking a significant milestone in our journey toward a more sustainable future. This transition reflects our commitment to reducing carbon emissions and offering customers practical, low-emission options to suit their lifestyle. We are confident that this next-generation Aygo X will continue to capture the imagination of Irish drivers, especially those seeking an exciting and environmentally conscious entry into sustainable motoring.”
