As Honda has proved with its remarkably successful Jazz, there’s a healthy market for an MPV-style vehicle that promises to marry a roomy, versatile interior with compact dimensions and a trouble free ownership experience with tiny ongoing running costs. For Toyota it’s this, the all-new Verso-S.

Background
Supermini-MPVs – Fiesta-sized runabouts with taller, more practical bodies - are a Very Good Idea. The kind of thing you’d have expected a brand like Citroen, Ford or Peugeot to come up with. But no, it was Toyota who developed the idea first with their van-ish Yaris Verso model way back in 2000. This was a car unashamedly aimed at older folk – who unashamedly loved it, but there weren’t enough silver surfing customers and the car was quietly deleted in 2006. Other brands though, were watching. The same concept, they decided, could have a broader appeal to families as well as frailer folk. And so arrived a whole generation of supermini-MPVs, Nissan’s Note, Vauxhall’s Meriva, Citroen’s C3 Picasso, Kia’s Venga and more recently Hyundai’s ix20 and Ford’s B-MAX. Infuriated at having missed a trick, Toyota sent its engineers quickly back to the drawing board to produce a product that would directly compete – and this is it, the Verso-S.
It follows the usual blueprint for a car of this kind, based on the floorplan of its brand’s mainstream supermini, in this case Toyota’s Yaris, but using a longer wheelbase and a tall body to maximise interior space. Gone is the quirky styling of the Yaris Verso, replaced by smart conventionally modern looks that should appeal both to young families and the older ‘empty nesters’ that the Japanese brand still thinks will make up the majority of buyers. Almost everything Toyota knows about small car packaging and versatility has been condensed into a design less than four metres long. Which ought to make this car very clever indeed. Let’s check it out.
