<p>&nbsp; The most reliable aspect of this sedan from Toyota remains its potent engines on offer. Packed with both petrol and a diesel unit, Etios manifests Toyota’s reliability in the best possible way. Equipped with a 1.5 litre petrol unit, it manages to deliver 90 PS of peak power at 5600 rpm along with 132 Nm of impressive torque available at 3000 rpm. The petrol engine offers a very peppy drive with linear power delivery that does creates that fun aspect whenever you are behind the wheel. On the other side, its diesel avatar makes use of a 1.4 litre D-4D setup which churns out only 68 PS of peak power at 3800 rpm along with a decent torque of 170 Nm available at 1800 rpm. Both these engines are mated to a standard 5 speed manual gearbox which offers good shift response. The diesel unit however, lacks on power especially when overtaking other vehicles for which you do require a downshift. But cruising in the city and even on the highways is not at all difficult for this sedan with a softer suspension setup that soaks in bumps and potholes easily.
