The new Vios is covered by a 5-year/unlimited mileage warranty. "The new and highly anticipated model boasts improved performance, quicker acceleration, and new technology, making it an even more compelling choice for customers looking for a reliable, efficient and affordable car," it said.
Datuk Ravindran K, president of UMW Toyota, stated that the all-new Vios represented the company's commitment to providing the best vehicles and ownership experience to its customers. 
"The all-new Toyota Vios is definitely a model that we are proud to put on the road and we hope many Malaysians will be able to enjoy driving the Vios," he said.
UMW Toyota also announced a Ramadan promotion on selected models worth up to RM 8,000, 100% loan financing, and a Toyota service savers promotion with monthly instalments as low as RM22.
Toyota owners can also expect a smooth car ownership journey with after-sales services that go above and beyond to provide Malaysians with an exceptional car ownership experience.
