End Of An Era: Farewell To 4 Beloved Cars From Toyota In Brazil, Discontinuation In Factories And Lamentation From Drivers
Toyota is one of the most beloved automakers in Brazil, as evidenced by the numerous cars it offers in the Brazilian market. For example, the Hilux is the dream of many drivers. Another example is the Corolla Cross and Yaris Cross, one of the most popular cars from the automaker, which has a legion of admirers in Brazil. Throughout its journey in the country, Toyota has launched and discontinued several models.
Today, we will talk about the end of three popular cars loved by Brazilians that, after a decision by Toyota, were discontinued. Currently, these models can only be found second-hand. The information comes from the Karvi website.
Etios And Etios Sedan
Beloved by Brazilians for a long time, unfortunately, they lost space with the arrival of the Yaris and Yaris Sedan. Gradually, the new models captured the public’s attention, and as a result, the Etios and Etios Sedan were discontinued in 2021. They were produced at the Sorocaba factory, and with the end of their production, the Corolla Cross took their place.

Peugeot publicly acknowledged the errors of the PureTech engine, which caused serious failures in hundreds of thousands of cars, and introduced the new Turbo 100 as a definitive solution, a 1.2 turbo tested for over 3 million kilometers that replaces the faulty belt with a more durable chain.

Automatic cars become ‘cheap’ in Brazil, and models from Toyota, Hyundai, Nissan, and Honda appear for R$ 65,000 with up to 120 hp, CVT transmission, 482 liters of trunk space, keyless entry, and six airbags to tackle traffic without a clutch.

Without relying on an outlet, without a cable, and without the gasoline engine driving the wheels: Nissan created the Note e-POWER, a hatchback that always runs on an electric motor while a combustion engine works only as a generator, delivering to Japan a type of “electric without recharging” that Brazil is almost unfamiliar with.
Prius
It may not be as well-known here, but it’s worth mentioning that it was once the best-selling hybrid car worldwide. In Brazil, it did not achieve as much success, but it was a favorite abroad. Due to this, production in Brazil was halted in August 2021.
Camry
We conclude our list with a sleek sedan design but with an discouraging price. The Camry cost up to R$ 320,000, and the cheaper Toyota models were always chosen instead. With insufficient market demand, the Japanese automaker decided to cease production in August 2021.
