2000 Toyota ECHO review from North America
"Efficient and economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The computer in charge of electronics had a minor glitch. It was covered by the warranty.
One of the plastic gaskets on the outside of the car fit too loosely. The repair cost $50.
General comments?
This car has terrific gas mileage (38-40 mpg), with a tank of only 11 gallons.
The interior is surprisingly roomy, even for four people.
The trunk space is ample.
So far, not one mechanical problems with the engine. It runs very smoothly.
