Engine in a Toyota Echo
The Toyota Echo is equipped with a 1.5-liter inline-four engine. This engine boasts variable valve timing and produces 108 horsepower. It has a compression ratio of 10.5:1 and requires regular 87-octane fuel. The car’s power-to-weight ratio is on par with cars one step up, such as the Dodge/Plymouth Neon or the Echo’s big brother, the Corolla. The 2000 Toyota Echo, for example, accelerates from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.6 seconds.
Additionally, there have been instances where the original engine in a Toyota Echo has been replaced with a different one. For example, there is a case where a Toyota Echo was fitted with a 1NZFXE engine from a 2016 Toyota Prius instead of its stock 1.3-liter engine.
In summary, the Toyota Echo comes with a 1.5-liter inline-four engine as its standard powerplant.

The front-wheel-drive Echo, even with its 108-horsepower, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine and itty-bitty 14-inch-diameter wheels, held its own.
What is the common problem with Toyota Echo?
Toyotas are renowned for their reliability and owners have few troubles with their Echo. Some report a few squeaks and rattles that seem to come from the body. They’re not necessarily a big deal, but can be annoying. Check for clicking sounds while making turns.

Despite rocketing to the sales charts in 2000 (mainly due to the success of its predecessor, the Toyota Tercel), Echo sales fell through the roof in 2004, with only 4,000 units sold to American buyers. Toyota pulled the plug in 2005, but the Echo remained in production worldwide as the Yaris.

Is Toyota Echo a safe car?
The Toyota Echo was introduced in 1999. The previous ANCAP assessment (a four star result) was based on a Euro NCAP test of a vehicle fitted with driver and passenger airbags. A passenger airbag was optional (as part of a safety pack) in Australia at the time but is no longer available.
How long does a Toyota Echo last?
200,000 miles
I’ve got almost 200,000 miles on my Echo and I’ve had to do nothing beyond expected repairs and maintenance. It’s a small car, but that is part of what I love about it — so easy to maneuver, and has the best turning radius of any car I’ve driven. It doesn’t have the power of a larger car, but that’s fine for me.
