1st gen (2006-2011)[]
The VT3 was a car based on the JDM Toyota Corolla Axio (Sedan) and Fielder (Wagon). The VT3 was a Toyota-VIVA project to bring out JDM models to the worldwide market, by working to adapt it to the other markets in terms of mechanics and design. The VT3 had one of the most modern designs on that time. It continued VIVA's "Flame Burst" design language that involved large headlights with a 12-sided lower grille; first seen on the RV300. The VT3 was one of the many Toyota-based VIVA vehicles, being the first one the SJ Sedan, a mid-size car based on the Toyota Progrès. The VT3 in 2007 and 2008 was one of the most popular VIVA cars, because of it's affordability, it's good handling, and customization options. In 2011, the VT3 was discontinued in favor of the VR33. The VT3 was also the first VIVA to introduce a fully digitally illuminated dashboard. It's eternal rival is the Chevrolet Optra, because both were similarly priced, and also had many options to choose. It's price in 2006 was 22,520,000 BS.
