2019 Toyota Vitz: Review, Prices & Specs
2019 Toyota Vitz: A Carimports.co.ke Review
The Big Picture
The Toyota Vitz (XP130 Generation) has defined the Kenyan compact hatchback segment since the model line originally launched in 1999. The 2019 model represents the final production year of the third generation before the model was retired and globally unified as the "Yaris." As the final iteration, the 2019 Vitz benefits from a decade of incremental refinements.
Quick Specs

The chassis code identifies the specific engine. Verify this on the auction sheet.
-
1.0L Petrol (Code: KSP130)
Features the 1KR-FE 3-cylinder engine (69 HP). Best for city use only. -
1.3L Petrol (Code: NSP130) RECOMMENDED
Features the 1NR-FKE 4-cylinder engine (99 HP). The best balance of power and economy. -
1.5L Hybrid (Code: NHP130)
Features the 1NZ-FXE hybrid powertrain. Best for maximum fuel savings.
Interior & Practicality
- Cabin Quality: Durable hard plastics designed to last. Controls are simple and intuitive.
- Cargo: At 268 Litres, the boot fits weekly groceries. Rear seats split 60:40 but do not fold completely flat.
Infotainment & Technology
- Audio: JDM units need an FM Band Expander to work in Kenya.
- Connectivity: Bluetooth is common on 'U' and 'Jewela' trims but basic on 'F' trim.
Fuel Efficiency & Ownership Costs
- 1.3L Consumption: 16–18 km/l
- Minor Service: KSh 5,000 – 8,000
- Resale Liquidity: Very High (Sells in days)
Suitability for Kenyan Roads
- Clearance: Low at 140mm. We advise upgrading tires to 185/70/R14 to avoid scraping speed bumps.
- Theft Risk: High. Side mirrors and wheel caps are frequent targets. Install mirror guards (riveting) immediately.
- Spare Parts: Excellent. Parts are available everywhere, from dealer showrooms to local shops in Kirinyaga Road.
Safety & Reliability
Most 2019 models include Toyota Safety Sense C (collision avoidance) as standard. The engine uses a timing chain (not a belt), reducing long-term maintenance costs.
