NOISE from front struts/ Poor suspension

Look and Style conservative style as usual ans normal with any Toyota product Comfort comfortable for the price paid, Spacious interior, can easily fit 3 adults in the rear seat Pickup adeuquate for day to day use Mileage once got 24 kmpl when I maintained 80 km/hr for 500 kms Best Features None. barebone. you have to equip it, Spend money and get whatever feature you want Needs to improve Suspension Overall Experience Looks like Toyota compromised suspension quality in cutting cost by installing cheap Chinese suspension parts. I am hearing thud noise from front when i drive over imperfect rough roads and speed bumps. Car nose dives and hits every single bump when more than two adults travel in the car. very poor dampening. The car literally sits on the road and the road clearance decreases when loaded with passengers and moderately heavy things in the boot. This is quite apparent when we look behind the car with stuff loaded. Toyota ruined a otherwise amazingly wonderful car that is more spacious than any other car in this class by having cheap parts, I really wonder if Toyota tested this car thoroughly in Rural areas with lot of speed bumps and rough roads, its a shame Toyota I never expected a semi finished product like this. I have had Corolla/Camry in the past and a long time Toyota fan and admire their cars for rock solid reliability . Toyota please issue a major recall of Etios and install a stiff suspension(Springs/front Struts/Rear Shocks) like how Fiat (installs suspension upgrade kit to increase the road clearance even for old fiat puntos) does.

    Amazing car.

    This car is amazing and the trust of this brand is great. Maybe the exterior and the interior could be a little better.
