At the top of the core range, the Exclusive model starts from £17,715 and comes with combination cloth and synthetic leather upholstery, a wireless phone charger, LED headlights, smart entry and start and the intelligent clearance sonars with auto brake.

It also adopts the new Toyota Smart Connect multimedia system with nine-inch High Definition display, giving access to cloud-based navigation, latest road information, connected services and over-the-air updates for updates and fixes. Options for the Aygo X Exclusive are the canvas roof and a five-speaker JBL sound system with 300W amplifier.

The Limited Edition model is priced from £19,640 and features 18-inch matt black alloys, Mandarina orange highlights on the wheels, sills and front and rear bumpers, special interior design features and the retracting canvas roof. The front seats are heated and have part-leather upholstery. The bi-tone finish will feature Aygo X’s new Cardamom Green metallic paint.

All grades are powered by a 71bhp three-cylinder non mild hybrid petrol engine, with the option of five-speed manual or CVT automatic transmission. Performance data and other technical information will be published nearer the model’s launch date.
