CEBU CITY, Philippines—Toyota Motor Philippines Inc. (TMPI) launched the premium subcompact SUV/MPV Toyota Veloz in an event dubbed the Veloz Day Out Tour Cebu leg at the Robinsons Galleria Cebu in Cebu City on Friday, June 3, 2022.

The Veloz was once the top-of-the-line variant of the Avanza model until Toyota decided to make it a separate, stand-alone model.

But both the Veloz and the Avanza share a lot of things in common, particularly its platform and its engine. Both are powered by a 1.5-liter 2NR-VE four-cylinder gasoline engine capable of 105hp and 138Nm of torque.

But the Veloz gets a more premium treatment inside and out to help it stand out from the Avanza.

The front fascia design is more aggressive and is highlighted by prominent hexagonal grille with a more aggressive bumper design.

At its rear end, the Veloz is differentiated by its full-length LED taillights that gives it a unique look at night.

A 7-inch TFT color LCD screen and a digital speedometer combined in a single cluster highlights the interior that also boasts of soft-padded inserts on the dashboard with ambient lighting.
