Used Toyota Aygo X 2022-present reliability
Category: City car
The Aygo X almost grasps a fourth star, largely due to its good driving experience and very low running costs.
What should I look for in a used Toyota AYGO X hatchback?
As with all cars, check for bodywork damage and kerbing on the wheels, and inspect the interior for signs of wear and tear. All new Aygo Xs come with a 10-year/100,000 warranty – you do have to service your car at a franchised dealer each year to maintain that cover – so you'll have whatever is left of this with a used example.
In terms of safety equipment, the Aygo X is generously kitted out. All versions come with automatic emergency braking (AEB), lane-keeping assist, six airbags, traffic sign assist, tyre-pressure monitoring and Isofix child seat mounts in the back.
During safety testing, conducted by Euro NCAP, the Toyota Aygo X was awarded four out of a possible five stars.
What are the most common problems with a used Toyota AYGO X hatchback?
Currently, the Aygo X has four recalls to its name. One relates to the front suspension and battery fixings, while another the curtain shield airbag.
One cites the wrong brake pedal being installed and the final recall an issue that could impact a valve in the brakes.
If you believe your car to be involved in one (or more) of these recalls, contact your local Toyota dealer and they should be able to sort it for you at no cost.
