Toyota will officially join the Indian B-car segment with this, the 2011 Etios sedan. A hatchback version, Etios Liva, will follow in April. While the styling is decidedly sedate, Toyota hopes to attract shoppers with the Etios' low price point – 496,000 Rupees, or just under $11,000 USD based on current exchange rates.
