Chronology
Predecessor

The Luxio is offered in D, M and X trim levels. The M trim was discontinued with the launch of the facelifted Luxio.

Exterior

The facelift model differs from the pre-facelift one with different front bumper, front grille, rear spoiler and alloy wheel designs.

For both the pre-facelift and facelift models, Icy White, Midnight Black Metallic, Sonic Blue Metallic and Classic Silver Metallic are the colour options available. Noble Grey Metallic and Sand Gold Metallic were only available for the pre-facelift models. Rock Grey Metallic is only available for the facelift models.

Interior

The Luxio has a dual-tone dashboard and seats 8 people. For the pre-facelift model, it uses a 1 DIN head unit with CD player and auxiliary cable slot from Pioneer (DEH-3087ZY model, for D and M trims) or 2 DIN head unit with CD and cassette player from Panasonic (for X trim), both with AM/FM radio. For the facelifted model, the head unit was changed to 1 DIN head unit with CD player, USB and auxiliary cable slots (for D trim) or 2 DIN touchscreen monitor head unit with DVD and CD player, USB and auxiliary cable slots from Kenwood (DDX3035 or DDX4033 model, for X trim, later changed to DDX3015 model, and then DDX4019BT model with Bluetooth connectivity and Spotify), both with AM/FM radio. The pre-facelift model has a four-spoke steering wheel design, while the facelifted model has a three-spoke steering wheel design.

Powertrain

The Luxio is powered by a 1.5 L 3SZ-VE four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 71 kW (95 hp; 97 PS) at 6,000 rpm and 134 N⋅m (99 lbf⋅ft) of torque at 4,400 rpm. The engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.

Safety

The two front passengers and outer two passengers for both middle and third row seats have a 3-point seatbelt while the centre passengers for both middle and third row seats have a 2-point seatbelt. The Luxio lacks airbags.[1][4] The optional anti-lock braking system was offered for the pre-facelift model (in M and X trims), but later abolished in the facelift model due to lack of demand.
