@AyAn, I think it was launched in June/July 09.But I searched in the forum and didn't get any threads(may be my searching was wrong IFF it is already in the forum).So thought of sharing the info.

I thought Altis sport was sold only in Sep & Oct of 09 with a limited run of 600 cars.

Has this been relaunched? Can someone confirm this?

abhibh · 10th February 2010, 03:22

They actually made more than 600 cars. A friend of mine owns Altis and was told that he wont get the number badge which stated "xxx/600" cars as Toyota decided to make more than 600 cars.

This car has already been launched in 2009. I have seen it and remember test driving it.

Its very similar to the normal Altis. It only has exterior upgrades.

Basically, it was launched to compete with Honda Civic sport edition.

Haha! good one.

Scary thought though as I plan on buying an Altis in the next month or two. The toyota dealership in pune told me that the issue only affects US models. The terrible GC of the civic makes the ride just way to harsh on pune roads.

This was already launched during mid last year and have seen a couple of them on the roads. Nothing great to boast about, its just some fancy body work and that too not upto the mark. I remember this being discussed in this forum at the time of the launch but cant seem to find the thread on that though.

Toyota's style of calling it sport is just add the body kit and wood grain interiors and call it a sport model, way to go Toyota..

tanwaramit · 10th February 2010, 16:08

This was launched last year, and harishv had bought this as his car while he is still fighting with Skoda over his car.

Search the forum and you will get pictures of his car.

What is different now than last year ? Also, is this an unlimited limited edition ?

For that matter, any of the Indian car manufacturers follow the suit.

fx45 · 10th February 2010, 20:45

I agree to that, but dont expect such stuff from players like Toyota and HOnda

carfreak77 · 10th February 2010, 21:03

The Altis sport has been launched in 2009. To be frank, I do not find anything special in this model that makes it "sporty". After Toyota's recent record of recalling cars such as the Prius I would really be weary about buying a toyota.
Also, I fail to understand why all the toyota's have the same boring interior.
