Toyota Rebadge Maruti Celerio As Vitz For South Africa | V3Cars
Toyota revealed a new range of cars for the South African market recently. The latest range of cars include the Vitz hatchback, which is a rebadged Suzuki Celerio. The new Vitz will go on sale in South Africa later this year and replace the entry-level Agya hatchback.
Toyota Vitz Revealed In South Africa
South Africa will become the first market to get a rebadged version of the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. The new Toyota Vitz doesn’t offer any cosmetic or mechanical changes over the Celerio, save for the Toyota badges. The Vitz is a long running nameplate in the global market, which was later replaced by the Yaris. However, Toyota have decided to resurrect the Vitz name in the South African market with the rebadged Celerio.

Vitz To Be 4th Rebadged Toyota
In South Africa, the new Vitz joins other products that spawned out of the Toyota-Suzuki alliance. These include the Starlet, which is a rebadged Baleno, the Rumion (rebadged Ertiga) and the Urban Cruiser (rebadged Vitara Brezza). The Vitz will replace the Agya hatchback in South Africa to become the most affordable offering in the brand’s lineup.
Will Toyota Launch Vitz In India?
Toyota are unlikely to launch the Vitz in India and are likely to keep the Glanza as their entry-level offering. Toyota have a premium image in the eyes of Indian car buyers and the brand is likely to continue with that image with more premium launches.
