Toyota Verso-S: 2010–2015 compact MPV, engines and trims
Toyota Verso-S – a compact MPV produced from 2010–2015 and built on the Yaris platform. Here, we look at the engines, trims, and what to check when buying a used Verso-S.
Verso-S in brief
Verso-S – a compact, practical, and tall MPV that stands out with its spacious interior and comfortable seating position. It's short, making it easy to park, but spacious inside.
This is a practical family car for the city. It's not common in the used market, so choices are limited.
Which version to choose
The Verso-S was produced in one generation, so the main differences are the engine, gearbox, and trim. Later models received some improvements.
When choosing, consider the service history and engine: petrol is suitable for the city, diesel – for frequent drivers.
Engines and gearboxes
The offered engines are the 1.33-litre petrol and the 1.4 D-4D diesel. Exact power output varies by version.
Gearboxes – manual or Multidrive S stepless (CVT) automatic.
What to check when buying a used Verso-S
Check if the engine runs smoothly and if there are no oil or coolant leaks. Ask for the service history.
Test the gearbox – especially the stepless, which should operate smoothly. In the diesel variant, check the particulate filter.
Inspect the body and suspension, check the seat mechanisms and electronic functions.
