The 2019 Toyota Esquire makes its entrance with quiet sophistication. Draped in a deep gloss black finish, it carries a graceful, almost limousine-like stance that commands attention without shouting for it. Its tall, sculpted grille and clean body lines give it an air of executive class, setting the tone for an MPV built to move people in comfort and style.

Inside the Esquire the atmosphere is one of calm, deliberate luxury. The cabin feels more like a private lounge than a family mover, with a sense of space that lets everyone settle in rather than simply take a seat. The black and grey colour palette gives a quiet richness, helped by the natural light that filters through the wide glass area. Heated front seats take the edge off a cold morning and invite you to relax into long journeys. Overhead, the roof mounted infotainment screen glides down to turn the rear compartment into an impromptu theatre, keeping passengers entertained as the kilometres pass. The suspension is tuned for a smooth, unhurried ride that absorbs rough patches and city bumps without fuss, so conversation remains easy and the cabin stays hushed even at highway speed. It is an environment that encourages unhurried travel, where comfort is not an extra but the very character of the vehicle.

The 1.8 litre petrol engine gives the Esquire a smooth, easygoing character that suits its role as a premium people mover. Power delivery is gentle yet steady, with enough pull to keep the MPV confident when merging onto highways or carrying a full load of passengers. The engine works in quiet partnership with its transmission, keeping revs low and progress calm whether you are weaving through city streets or cruising on the open road. Its efficiency is just as impressive, returning an everyday average of about 14 to 16 km per litre depending on traffic and driving style, which makes long journeys and daily errands equally economical. This balance of quiet strength and sensible consumption defines the Esquire’s performance, giving you the reassurance of Toyota reliability while keeping running costs pleasantly modest.
