	2005 Toyota ECHO - Detailed Pricing and Specifications - MSN Autos
		The ECHO is Toyota’s entry-level car that is one of the highest fuel-mileage passenger cars sold in the U.S. market.
		The ECHO was introduced for the 2000 model year and features a higher roof and higher seating positions than what was traditionally found in the entry-level segment.
		The Echo is a surprisingly roomy small runabout.

	cars.com:
		The ECHO arrived last year to replace the Tercel and give Toyota a new low-priced, youth-oriented small car.
		The ECHO’s most unusual interior feature is the gauge cluster, which is mounted on top of the dashboard in the middle and angled toward the driver.
		Toyota says this location makes the gauges easier to read, though it takes some getting used to because they are farther away than usual.

	2000 Toyota Echo review
		But if Toyota was hoping to just jump in and be cool with the Echo, they've got another thing coming -- regardless of how many swank details they add.
		Sure the Echo gets good gas mileage, is easy to use, and doesn't pack an engine that could send their kids to the moon.
		Rear legroom was impressive, considering the overall tiny-ness of the Echo, and trunk space was aplenty.

	Toyota Echo NRMA car review - Motoring - MyNRMA
		The base Echo is the three-door hatchback powered by a 1.3 litre engine, followed by the five-door hatch (also with the 1.3 litre engine) and the four-door sedan with a 1.5 litre engine.
		Underlining Toyota's global plans for the Echo, is the fact that the hatchback was styled in Europe by a Greek-born stylist.
		The Echo hatch is designed to appeal to younger buyers and as such its styling was never going to be bland.

	CanadianDriver: Test Drive - 2004 Toyota Echo Hatchback
		Echo LE is available in both three- and five-door configurations ($13,965 and $14,600, respectively), and adds a 4-speaker stereo, rear wiper and power steering to the CE, plus power locks and rear floor mats on 5-door versions.
		Toyota is offering a slew of factory-backed performance and appearance accessories to appeal to the tuner crowd.
		All Echo models are powered by a double overhead cam four-banger that displaces 1.5 litres, producing 108 hp at 6,000 rpm and 105 lb-ft of torque at 4,200 revs.

	Toyota Echo Parts - Partstrain.com
		The Toyota Echo is a subcompact car, which is unusually tall, setting it apart from other cars of its class.
		Toyota Echo’s body has side-door impact beams and other beams framing the dash with a trapezoid.
		The echo is also equipped with wipers with long and broad strokes that efficiently keep the windshield clean and clear.

	Toyota ECHO Press Kit
		The Toyota Echo in its three body styles is likely to bridge the gap between the light and small car segments of the market which combined make up 41 percent of all new vehicle sales.
		Toyota has maximised body rigidity while maintaining weight targets, by placing reinforcements in key locations, adopting straight sections for the main underbody framework and optimising the strength of the joints in the body shell and underbody.
		Echo has also met the European dynamic side impact test (where a 950 kilogram moving deformable barrier is slammed into the side of the test vehicle at 55 km/h).

	2000 Toyota Echo - The Car Connection
		To be sure, the Echo strays far from the status quo in the subcompact segment in the U.S. Technology and Genesis influence aside, the real question is whether it's a car worthy of your consideration.
		Styllng is the Achilles heel of the Echo.
		Toyota tells us that for the first six weeks the Echo was on sale, the average transaction price of the car was nearly $14,000, the hairy outer edge of economy as we see it.

	Test Drive Notes: Toyota Echo 2000
		The Echo has a little, 1.5 liter, four-cylinder engine, which is perfectly adequate, given that the whole car weighs barely 2,000 pounds.
		Otherwise, the fit and finish of the Echo were up to Toyota's usual high standards, meaning the only use for the warranty booklet will be as a shim for your dining room table.
		Toyota has made 1.5 liter engines for years, and there's no reason why this one shouldn't be as reliable as all of Toyota's engines.

	CanadianDriver: Test Drive - 2003 Toyota Echo sedan
		When the Toyota Echo went on sale in 2000, it was a common joke that anyone who sat inside the sub-compact would love it, but the only way they would ever get inside an Echo was if they were led blindfolded to the car.
		But Toyota was sensitive to feedback from the buying public about the Echo's looks and, for the 2003 model year, revised the front and rear of the car.
		I had a chance to place the new Echo sedan beside a 2000 model for a close up comparison and, while the differences are obvious, I can't say that the new look makes the Echo that much more appealing, although it is an improvement.

	2001 Toyota Echo Sportivo - Road tests - CARSguide
		Toyota says the cars are the start of a new sub-brand in its mainstream family, aimed at younger buyers who want more from their compact cars without the premium price tags of the Celica and the MR2.
		The recipe for Echo Sportivo is simple: Toyota Australia took the 1.5-litre engine from the Echo sedan and dropped it into the hatches, then added plenty of dress-up gear to give it the essential street cred.
		Toyota emphasises the basic $19,990 price for a three-door manual Echo Sportivo, but there is also a five-door model and an optional safety pack at $1220 for anti-skid brakes, a passenger-side airbag and seat belt pre-tensioners.

	2005 Toyota ECHO - Edmunds.com (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Built on the same platform as the Echo and sold by Toyota dealers, the xA is a better handler and its somewhat higher base price is offset by the fact that it comes fully equipped -- rather than stripped bare like the Toyota Echo.
		Meanwhile, the Echo can easily accommodate a pair of adults in the rear seat, though parents may find it difficult to install bulky child safety seats.
		The Toyota Echo does have a couple of advantages in cramped urban settings, as its small size makes it easy to park in tight spaces, while its soft suspension does a fair job of filtering out bumps and ruts.

	Toyota Echo fills tall order (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Second, Ford and Toyota have done generally terrific jobs on packaging and handling, making their little/tall cars marvelous to drive.
		Echo's electronic controls are Toyota's first in a subcompact and are rare on cheap, little cars, in which corners are cut to keep prices low.
		Meanwhile, Echo is ugly: stubby, appearing to be perpetually running downhill, resembling an ill-proportioned minivan from the front.

	CarReview.com - Toyota ECHO Reviews
		After driving the Yaris as a brand new rental which is essentially an Echo here in Canada for 50km, I releazed that this is not a good car and I wouldn't recommend it to other people.
		The interior room is good as is the fuel economy but the handling is terrible even compared to my 1987 Buick Park Avenue, the brakes are horrible very little feedback, the ABS doesn't seem to be of the proper caliber and the accelleration is terrible.
		My wife just bought a RAV4 last year at a different Toyota dealer and wasn't offered this deal, So I don't know if this is new or only offered at my dealership..The warranty is suppose to be good at any Toyota dealer nationwide, We'll see if I ever have to use it.

	The Toyota Echo(2000)
		Toyota may be the company of "no limits" (sorry Sector Watch) considering their new product coming to market.
		You think the Celica was all washed up, guess again as Toyota redesigns the model into the new razor sharp, hard edged Celica GT-S, with six speeds and a 180 hp at 7,600 rpm.
		Echo is powered by a very sophisticated inline DOHC, 16 valve four cylinder engine with VVT-i (Toyota's brand of variable valve timing).

		Echo also gets these first-time options: 15-inch wheels to replace 14s, power windows packaged with power door locks, an interior Chrome Package with bright silver-colored accents, and a tachometer.
		Clearly, Echo has failed to attract the young, trendy, price-conscious buyers it was supposed to.

	Toyota Echo
		I was pleased that Toyota was finally designing a more affordable car, but like many, I have been disappointed in the past with cars fitting the mold of the Echo, so my expectations for this car were low.
		Toyota believes this location will reduce eye fatigue and reduce the amount of time needed to switch from watching the road to monitoring your speed.
		Toyota brags it will achieve an estimated 34/41 mpg with the manual transmission, which is not far off from the average we clocked during our week of driving.

		If the 2003 Toyota Echo was properly maintained, you also have a good chance of steering clear of problems that would have developed when the car was new.
		Another factor that may affect price on a 2003 Toyota Echo is whether it's "certified" by the manufacturer.

		The Yaris is due to replace Echo early in 2006 as an update of this basic design.
		We'll take their word for it, but we can't fathom why Toyota would bother with a new small car when its youth-oriented Scion models are already successful and a weakening dollar is squeezing entry-level profits to near zero.

	IGN: 2004 Toyota Echo
		The purpose of the Echo was to bring Toyota quality in an affordable entry-level vehicle to young first-time car buyers.
		The first generation of the Echo sold relatively well, as we see them all the time on the roads here in L.A. To increase its appeal to the young buyers, especially the ladies, a Roxy-edition Echo (Roxy is a women's surfwear line) was introduced in 2001.
		But since the Echo is Toyota's budget model, don't expect to find any navigation systems or heated leather seats here.

	2004 Toyota Echo Hatchback Review \| silverorange stuff
		The hatchback model of the Echo is not available in the US, and was only made available in Canada last summer (having been available as the Yaris in Europe for a while).
		I'm interested in the Echo HB but I have heard that they are very expensive to insure (ie: $1,800.00 for an average male driver in Toronto).
		I've had my red Echo hatchback for just over a year, and after 26,000km I can't begin to describe what a GREAT little car it is! I commute 130 km a day, and it averages 750-800km per tank of gas.

		It will also be very distinguishable in a cookie cutter field of low-priced sedans, but perhaps not in a good way, and, if the Ford Focus is an indicator, soon these cars will be the uniform of the day as well.
		Toyota's reputation for reliability must be a strong factor in any purchase decision, and the Echo's mechanical appeal is significant.
		But Toyota's expensive options, the Echo's dearth of standard equipment, and the dashboard alone might be deterrents enough to push buyers slightly upscale.
