AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

The Toyota Vios is an entry-level sedan that has been sold in Taiwan for many years and shares a platform with the hatchback version of the Yaris. Yaris has withdrawn from the Taiwan market first, and the current Vios model has not undergone a major facelift for many years. There are already new-generation models based on the DNGA platform and 1.2-liter gasoline-electric power in overseas markets, but Taiwan has no plans to introduce them.

Taiwan's affordable national car market has one less choice. Toyota's general agent Hetai confirmed that the Vios will complete the last batch of production by the end of this year. After the existing inventory quota is sold out, it will officially bid farewell to the Taiwan car market. Recently, some dealers have launched promotions, with discounts and trade-in subsidies, and the minimum entry threshold has been lowered to about 460,000 yuan.

Toyota Vios will be discontinued at the end of this year.

At present, domestic Toyota Vios offers two models, the classic model is priced at 609,000 yuan and the luxury model is priced at 675,000 yuan. It comes standard with 14-inch wheels, a 7-inch touch screen, automatic opening and closing of head and tail lights, etc. The top model has smart constant temperature air conditioning, LED tail lights, leather seats, cruise control, keyless start and TSS system.

This time, some dealers are conducting final promotions. If the old-to-new model meets the trade-in conditions and combined with the discounts offered by the dealers, the entry-level classic model’s empty price will be as low as about 460,000 yuan, which is 150,000 yuan lower than the official selling price. It is now the most affordable transportation option in the domestic car industry. However, these are only the transaction conditions of specific dealers, and the actual price still depends on each dealer's promotion plan, vehicle year, equipment, and inventory location.

The picture shows the interior of the current Vios.

Looking back at the development of the car series, the hatchback car Yaris, which shares a technical basis with the Vios, has been withdrawn from the market. The current Vios has been sold in Taiwan for many years without a major facelift. Faced with the wave of upgrades in space performance, power and safety equipment of new-generation small cars in recent years, product generations have gradually shown signs of fatigue. Although overseas markets such as Southeast Asia have already announced new-generation models that use the DNGA platform and 1.2-liter gasoline-electric power, Taiwan has never had a generation change plan, and the current model has finally come to an end.

Experts advise parents not to rush to interfere with their children's job hunting: Times have changed, and old experience may be useless

Experts point out that it is understandable for parents to be anxious about the employment of their children of recent graduates, but excessive involvement is detrimental to their children's development. The current unemployment rate for college graduates aged 22 to 27 in the United States is 5.7%, and the underemployment rate is 42%. The job search environment has become digital and impersonal, and traditional career advice may be outdated. Parents should use an inquiring attitude to understand their children's experiences, rather than rushing to give outdated advice. They can help their children write cold emails or write thank-you letters and other concrete actions to establish real interpersonal relationships as a job-hunting differentiator.
