Toyota debuts modestly refreshed 2011 Matrix in Chicago
Toyota is not a formal press conference this week at the Chicago Auto Show, but the automaker still a bit chilly on the stand. The 2011 Matrix hatchback bowed formally, with a slightly touched up the outside (new wheels, paint various decisions, etc.), a touch-up interior with new steering wheel and seat fabric, and a new standard braking system called Smart override stop.
The 2011 Matrix is available only in two trim levels - base and S - and is driven either by a 132-hp 1.8-liter or 158-hp 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. Transmission choices include a four-or five-speed automatic and a five-speed manual and four-wheel drive is available on the S matrix, when coupled with the 2.4-liter engine.
New sports packages are available for both matrix strips, assembled with the S sports package including things such as 17-inch alloy wheels, front and rear underbody spoiler, roof spoiler and of course, 'S' badging. Pricing is not available for the 2011 Matrix has been released as of this writing, but we're expecting to just under $ 17,000 MSRP to be. Follow the jump for the official information.
