Toyota holds line on Matrix price for '07 model, trims lineup - - Dale Jewett | | Automotive News / August 1, 2006 - 11:33 am - - Source: Autonews.com
Toyota Motor Sales U.S.A. Inc. is pruning the Matrix wagon lineup for the 2007 model year by dropping the XRS trim level and all-wheel-drive powertrain. Toyota also is not raising prices for the remainder of the Matrix lineup.
The base Matrix with a manual transmission has a sticker price of $15,840, including $580 shipping, for the 2007 model. The Matrix XR, with a manual transmission, has a sticker price of $17,320 including shipping.
Toyota's two independent distributors, Gulf States Toyota Inc. and Southeast Toyota Distributors LLC, set their own shipping charges for vehicles they sell.
The Matrix is being carried over for the 2007 model year with no major changes, Toyota said.
Also, Toyota is adding an M-Theory trim package for the Matrix. The package, which has a sticker price of $1,500, includes a sport suspension, 17-inch wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, body-color rear spoiler and chrome exhaust tip.
M-Theory production will be limited to 2,500 units, Toyota said. The M-Theory package can be added only to the XR trim level Matrix.
Through the first six months of this year, Matrix sales in the United States totaled 65,121 units, up 27.7 percent from the same period last year.

Toyota will roll out Tundra and Corolla redesigns next year and will revise the RAV4, Avalon and Highlander, but there are some things the division probably won't do.
For example, there is a strong possibility that the Corolla-based Matrix hatchback will not be renewed for the United States when the Corolla redesign comes next fall.
"If we don't have the Matrix, it won't be the end of the world," said Toyota Division boss Bill Fay at the press introduction of the RAV4 in Phoenix.
Canada will continue to get the Matrix, he said.
And while Honda has decided to build a subcompact crossover based on the Fit platform, Fay said Toyota has no plans to add a crossover below the RAV4.
"The RAV is as small as we want to get," he said. "I am confident with where Toyota is with that. It meets all or most of our customer needs in that segment. We're fine."

I could've sworn they stopped making it in a press release years ago.

I thought it was dead, too but apparently not. Shows you how much that car is setting the automotive world alight.
