The base model Active is fairly sparsely equipped, with 50:50 folding rear seats and a CD player the only notable standard equipment. The new Active plus model gets electric front windows, higher-quality fabric for the seats, four-speaker audio and a remote keyfob. Air-conditioning is optional on the Active plus model.

Go up the Toyota Aygo range and there is more equipment included as standard, with the new Mode spec getting 14-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, tinted windows, LED daytime running lights and body-coloured door mirrors and handles. The top-spec Move model includes a portable TomTom sat-nav, air-conditioning, Bluetooth, USB and a leather steering wheel as standard.

Rear parking sensors, mud flaps, carpet mats and extra scratch protection for the sides of the car can be bought for the Aygo Mode and Move as part of the Protection Pack, while the Design Pack adds extra chrome trim to the exterior and exhaust pipe. Buyers can also get the Move with Style spec, which adds tinted windows, alloy wheels and daytime running lights to the Move version.
