The Toyota Raize is a "sub-4-meter" compact SUV, co-developed with Daihatsu (using the DNGA platform). It is designed to bridge the gap between a hatchback and a full-sized SUV. The 1.0L Turbo variant is typically the higher-tier option (such as the Z Grade or Limited trim) compared to the naturally aspirated 1.2L version
