The 2008 Toyota Echo boasts a truly energetic 16-valve VVT-i
engine and is available with either two or four doors. The
restyled and new 2008 Toyota Echo can help you get everywhere
you need to go in style. Perhaps most importantly, the Echo
features a sticker price that can really help you pursue your
dreams - in many cases, the car retails for less than $20,000.

2006 Toyota Echo performance is second to none. The Echo
comes standard with a 16-valve, Variable Valve Timing with
intelligence engine that's remarkably fuel-efficient, achieving
35 miles-per-gallon in the city and 43 miles per gallon on
the highway. The Echo also features:
- Independent MacPherson strut front suspension
- Aluminum alloy cylinder block and engine head
- Variable muffler valve
- Toyota Direct Ignition system
If these aren't sophisticated enough for you, the car also
comes available with a host of Echo accessories to enhance
performance, such as alloy wheels and more. Review the Echo,
review a winner.
The Echo looks great, too. On the outside, a tall roof and
raised rear deck set the Echo apart, but they also maximize
cabin and trunk space. Redesigned headlamps and tail lamps,
a chrome grille and available P185/60R15 tires on 15-inch
steel wheels with full wheel covers are new, as is the available
Appearance Package. On the inside, the car boats:
- Seating for five
- Available 60/40 split fold-down rear seat
- Available Deluxe 3-in-1 AM/FM ETR/Cassette/CD audio system
- Center-mounted instrument panel
- Dual glove compartments
- Under-seat storage tray
Beyond this, of course, there are the Echo accessories, all
of which give your Echo a personal touch.
A number of Echo reviews also tout the car's safety features,
and ours will, too. Some of these more sophisticated safety
features consist of bonuses such as:
- Elevated seating
- Anti-lock Brake System
- Front and rear energy-absorbing crumple zones
- Side-impact door beams
- Driver and front passenger air bags
- Available driver and front passenger seat-mounted side-impact
air bags
Finally, the car offers front seatbelt pretensioners with
force limiters, an energy-absorbing steering column, and hood
hold-down hooks. Not too shabby for such a little car, now
is it?
