Corolla cheaper than Echo Hatchback... funny.

I just done a surprising observation while surfing on Toyota Canada website in the "shop online" section and I wanna share it with you!

When you check the price of the Echo Hatchback 4 doors "RS" you get a non-equipped car (no power windows, no A/C, no remote lock, no cruise) and if you add the optionnal cruise control and the optionnal A/C, the price is HIGHER than a fully equipped Corolla CE (w/ C package) who have A/C, pwr windows, pwr lock, remote, cruise, etc...

The Echo hatchback is supposed to be the entry-level car and for cheaper you can get a fully equipped Corolla... amazing... :?

i don"t think production cost is more expensive for the echo hb . toyota canada just took advantage of its popularity .

hey what do i know anyway ! :?

SimmZ essais de conduire en ville 2 minutes , pis c imposible de pas en voir une ! serieux c une invasion .

yeah once you add options to the echo hatch that thing gets really expensive. I'd rather buy a corolla

I alway wondered why Toyota offers and HID option for the Echo and not the Corolla (and Camery??). I wish they would offer HID on the Corolla.

That's exactly my point of view... :roll:

Effectivement il en pleut des foutues Echo H/B pi on peut pas nier le fait qu'ils savent très bien ce qu'ils font. :x

i want a vitz or echo or what ever its call in canada. and they have them?!?!? dang. i've seen it in that best motoring dvd where they were testing them at the touge. its fast.

Pfff... I test drive one and it's not fast as you think. It came only with a 1.6L VVT-i engine with around 100 HP and this engine have NO torque at all. It run ok for a small sub-sub-sub-compact car and for a VERY gas economic car, but don't think about doing a race car with that cheap entry-level car.. hehe

But this cheap entry-level and non-equipped car is more expensive than Corolla who are a more spacious, more powerfull and more equiped car! :?
