The Toyota Raize launched in Sri Lanka as a turbocharged 1.0L subcompact SUV (A200A), but its market profile has shifted dramatically. The A200A (1.0L Turbo 2WD) now has just 47 total listings averaging Rs. 10.77M–12.00M. The A202A (e-Smart Hybrid 2WD) has become the dominant Raize in Sri Lanka — the 2025 model year alone has 396 listings at Rs. 14.13M average. Understanding this shift is critical before purchasing any Raize.
Total Raize market: 2,855 listings, median Rs. 13.65M, average Rs. 13.36M — positioning it as a premium subcompact SUV rather than an entry-level crossover.
Twin model: The Toyota Raize is manufactured by Daihatsu and is mechanically identical to the Daihatsu Rocky — different badge, same chassis codes. Rocky listings in Sri Lanka are very rare.
Chassis Overview
| Chassis | Phase | Years | Engine | Drive | Output |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A200A | Phase 1 (all) / Phase 2 (2WD only rare) | 2019–2021 main | 1KR-VET 998cc Turbo | 2WD | 98 PS / 140 Nm |
| A202A | Phase 2 | Nov 2021–present | WA-VEX 1,196cc + e-Smart Hybrid | 2WD | 82 PS gen + 106 PS motor |
| A210A | Phase 1 + 2 | 2019–present | 1KR-VET 998cc Turbo | 4WD | 98 PS / 140 Nm |
| A201A | Phase 2 | Nov 2021–present | WA-VE 1,196cc NA | 2WD | 87 PS / 113 Nm |
Critical engine change (November 2021): From Phase 2 onwards, 2WD standard grades (X, G, Z) switched from the 1.0L turbo to a 1.2L naturally-aspirated WA-VE engine. The 1.0L turbo was retained only for 4WD (A210A). Hybrid grades (G and Z) use the 1.2L WA-VEX with the e-Smart series hybrid system. A listing claiming "Raize Turbo" on a 2022+ 2WD unit is likely either a mis-listing or a 4WD (A210A).
e-Smart Hybrid is a series hybrid: The WA-VEX engine acts as a generator — the electric motor drives the wheels 100% of the time at normal speeds. This is fundamentally different from the parallel hybrid in a Toyota Prius or Suzuki Wagon R. In city driving it functions like an EV; on highways the engine contributes to propulsion. This architecture is the primary reason Sri Lankan buyers favour the A202A — real-world urban fuel economy of 20–25 km/L is significantly better than any conventional petrol Raize.
A200A (Phase 1 Turbo 2WD) — Price by Year of Manufacture
The A200A uses the 1KR-VET 998cc 3-cylinder turbocharged engine producing 98 PS at 6,000 rpm and 140 Nm at 2,400–4,000 rpm. The turbo delivers a strong mid-range pull that belies its sub-1L displacement — 0–100 km/h in approximately 10 seconds. The 2019–2021 A200A was the only 2WD Raize available, with grades X (base), G (mid), Z (top).
| YOM | Listings | Avg Price | Min | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019 | 3 | Rs. 10.77M | Rs. 10.65M | Rs. 10.95M |
| 2020 | 12 | Rs. 10.81M | Rs. 10.30M | Rs. 11.25M |
| 2023* | 25 | Rs. 12.00M | Rs. 9.89M | Rs. 13.40M |
| 2024* | 4 | Rs. 12.90M | Rs. 11.45M | Rs. 14.20M |
*2023/2024 A200A listings are likely re-listed older units or late-registered Phase 1 stock, not new production.
The A200A supply has nearly dried up — just 47 total listings across all years. The 2019–2020 units (15 listings combined) average Rs. 10.77M–10.81M, which is Rs. 3.3M below the equivalent 2025 A202A. This makes the A200A the value entry for buyers who want a Raize without paying A202A prices — provided they accept the Phase 1 turbo engine and the now-discontinued powertrain variant.

A202A (e-Smart Hybrid 2WD) — Price by Year of Manufacture
The A202A is the dominant Raize in Sri Lanka and uses Toyota's e-Smart Hybrid system — a 1,196cc WA-VEX inline-3 engine (82 PS as a generator) paired with a 106 PS electric motor driving the front wheels. The system is a series hybrid: the petrol engine rarely drives the wheels directly. Battery capacity is modest (lithium-ion), designed for urban cycle assist rather than long-range EV driving. Grades: Hybrid G and Hybrid Z only. "Hybrid X" does not exist — any such listing is incorrect.
Toyota's official name is "e-Smart Hybrid" but in Sri Lanka listings it appears as simply "Hybrid" or sometimes "e Smart Hybrid". The canonical grade names are Raize Hybrid G and Raize Hybrid Z — always with "Hybrid" before the grade letter. "Raize Z Hybrid" is a naming error.
| YOM | Listings | Avg Price | Min | Max |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 3 | Rs. 13.20M | Rs. 12.20M | Rs. 13.95M |
| 2024 | 26 | Rs. 13.58M | Rs. 12.50M | Rs. 14.65M |
| 2025 | 396 | Rs. 14.13M | Rs. 11.00M | Rs. 16.00M |
| 2026 | 249 | Rs. 14.46M | Rs. 12.60M | Rs. 16.00M |
The 2025 A202A has 396 listings at Rs. 14.13M average — this is the Raize market anchor. The Rs. 11.00M minimum in 2025 is an outlier; the realistic floor for a verified 2025 unit is Rs. 12.50M+. The Rs. 16M maximum represents top-spec Hybrid Z units in near-new condition. The 2024 A202A (26 listings, Rs. 13.58M) offers approximately Rs. 550K savings over 2025 with only one year of age difference.
Grade within A202A: Hybrid Z includes Toyota Safety Sense (pre-collision system, lane departure alert), 360-degree parking sensors, and premium audio. Hybrid G is the mid-grade. Verify which grade you are buying — the Rs. 1M–1.5M gap between G and Z is often invisible in listings that simply say "Hybrid."
A210A (4WD Turbo) — Market Presence
The A210A retains the 1.0L turbo engine but adds four-wheel drive — available across all phases. In Sri Lanka, only approximately 20 total listings exist across 2023–2025, averaging Rs. 11.75M–13.15M. The 4WD premium over equivalent 2WD is approximately Rs. 1.0M–1.5M — modest given the capability added. Suitable for buyers in areas with challenging road conditions (hill country, unpaved access roads).
Which Chassis Should You Buy?
- Budget Rs. 10.5M–11.5M: 2019–2020 A200A (Rs. 10.77M–10.81M). Only 15 listings — you have minimal choice and limited room to negotiate. Confirm Phase 1 turbo engine condition carefully; these units are 5–7 years old.
- Budget Rs. 13M–14M: 2024 A202A (26 listings, Rs. 13.58M). Best value within Hybrid — one year newer than peak listing year, Rs. 550K below 2025 average, and enough supply for comparison shopping.
- Budget Rs. 14M–15M: 2025 A202A (396 listings, Rs. 14.13M). Maximum choice and the most current batch. Verify Hybrid G vs Hybrid Z grade before purchase — the difference is material.
