On June 15, 2020, Toyota Motor Philippines released the facelifted version of the Toyota Wigo, including the sporty looking Wigo TRD S. By now, those of you who are thinking of getting a small, city car like the Wigo might be gravitating towards it due to its new sporty looking design.
But what if we told you that you can actually dress up the lower trim levels like the entry level Wigo E and Wigo G to make it look like the TRD S?
The Wigo TRD S
That’s right, Toyota is offering individual genuine TRD parts for your Toyota Wigo. You can get the TRD alloy wheels, a rear roof spoiler, a side skirt, the angular looking front and rear bumper set, as well as the dashboard mounted camera. So yes, if you wanted a manual Wigo with all the TRD parts that is indeed possible.
If you want to go ham, and make your Wigo E or Wigo G really look like the Wigo TRD S, then you’ll have to fork out a total of P118,768. If you wanted to add the digital video recorder, that brings it up to P128,648.
Toyota Wigo with all the TRD parts... except for the TRD wheels
So for example, you’re looking to buy the entry-level Wigo E MT, which is priced at Php 568,000, with all the TRD parts, that’s more or less P696,448. Which is pretty close to what the TRD S AT is worth.
That total amount however doesn’t include the price for the installation costs. But if you’re down to install them yourself, you might save more money.
The single largest advantage of these TRD parts, however, is that you can buy these individually after you bought your new 2020 Toyota Wigo allowing you to save up for the said parts.
Note also that the TRD wheels look very different from the factory ones fitted on the Wigo TRD S. As to whether it looks better or not, that’s on you. For us, though it looks beefier.
