Toyota has introduced a Dual Tone Limited Edition of the already popular Etios Liva. The new model is based on the top variant, the Liva VX, and comes in two engine versions. The limited Dual Tone car will only be available in select cities in India.
In terms of design upgrades, the Liva Dual Tone variant features the standard white tone body of the Liva with slight red accents on the front grille and headlights. The top including the roof of the car is completely black.
The Etios Liva is already available in regular dual-tone variants of orange, white and red exteriors accompanied with the black color roof, however, the limited edition is launched in the white exterior only along with appealing red inserts all over the car which are not present in the standard dual-tone variant.

As for the interior, red accents are given around the gear knob and AC vents. The car also gets a new 6.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that also works as the display for the back reversing camera, as opposed to the standard Liva which has a double din audio system and no reversing camera.
