The powerful and dynamic JBL premium sound system in Toyota’s unique A-segment crossover Aygo X is celebrated with a distinctive new special edition, the Aygo X JBL.

The Aygo X has attracted new style-conscious buyers to Toyota since first hitting Europe’s roads in 2022, building on the youthful and fun character which has already excited Aygo drivers for almost two decades whilst introducing a more confident driving position and spacious interior.

By moving from a hatchback to a crossover body type, Toyota’s stylists in Europe created a unique sense of emotion in the Aygo X. This was mirrored by JBL’s audio experts, who crafted a premium sound system specifically for the car, optionally available on all models and now standard on the new Aygo X JBL special edition.

Definition of the sound system specifications began whilst the Aygo X was still in development, via virtual models to help determine the most suitable equipment. As well as sound quality, JBL engineers also prioritised a lightweight system to contribute towards lower vehicle weight, which benefits fuel efficiency and tailpipe emissions.

Hundreds of hours of dedicated work and precision adjustments went into designing a dynamic sound system tailored to the vehicle’s exact interior characteristics. The location of speakers plays a significant role in creating a wide sound stage, achieved by two full-range speakers in the front doors in combination with 25-millimetre tweeters on the A pillars.

At the rear, a 200mm subwoofer – large for a compact car like the Aygo X – generates powerful bass and dynamic speaker response as well as clear, dynamic sound. A 300W amplifier under the passenger seat has six channels, which JBL engineers used to fine-tune frequencies for a concert-style sound, ideally suited to rock and pop music.

Thanks to Toyota Smart Connect, a driver can select the music of their choice easily as well, through wired and wireless smartphone connectivity via Android Auto® and Apple CarPlay®, all controlled on a large 10.5-inch high-definition touchscreen display unit.

While the sound system stimulates the ears, the exterior of the bold new Aygo X JBL catches the eye in new Jasmine Silver and bi-tone black paint, designed to create a stark and aesthetic contrast, accentuated by black decorative elements on the front, rear and side underruns. The bi-tone colouring extends to the rear and merges with the side rockers and front wheel arches to create a truly unique character, accentuated by distinctive 18-inch black and Dark Jasmine alloy wheels.

To emphasise its premium JBL sound system, the Aygo X JBL features unique branding and visual signatures inside and out. A JBL logo adorns the car’s rear, while elements are reproduced on the rear window panel. Inside the compact yet spacious interior, premium colour matched seat trim includes the JBL logo so customers can ride in style as well as comfort.

The Aygo X JBL will be sold in selected European markets from October 11 and is launched with an innovative playlist “The Sound of Noise”, which celebrates the creation of the Aygo X JBL with stimulation, relaxation and information to emphasise the vehicle’s unique character and its premium JBL sound system.
