Vitz, Probox, Fielder, Prius and Aqua parts from Dubai for export

These five names cover a family of Japan-market Toyotas that share engines more than bodies. Wikipedia dates the Vitz from January 1999, with its third generation, the XP130, built in Japan from December 2010 to December 2019, after which Japan used the Yaris name. The Probox and Succeed vans run in two generations, 2002 to 2014 and from 2014. The Corolla Axio and Fielder, the E160 cars, were on normal sale in Japan from May 2012 to June 2019, and fleet sales continued until October 2025.

The Prius and the Aqua carry the hybrid side. The first Prius, the NHW10, was built from December 1997, and the NHW20 followed in August 2003. The Aqua, sold overseas as the Prius c, was released in Japan on 26 December 2011 and was redesigned on 19 July 2021 with a new three-cylinder engine. Because the 2021 car changed engine, a list for an Aqua means little until we know which generation: the chassis code NHP10 and the codes MXPK10 and MXPK11 are different cars.

The small petrol engines are the other split. The 1KR-FE, a 998 cc three-cylinder that Wikipedia lists for the XP90 and XP130 Vitz, is not the 1NZ-FE of the Probox and Fielder, nor the 1.3 litre 1NR-FE found in the later Probox. Our separate page on the NZ engines covers plugs, coils, gasket sets and timing chains; this page covers everything around them.

Kenya is the clearest case. Business Daily reported on 15 August 2023 that Japan supplied 58,972 of the 62,495 used vehicles Kenya received in the twelve months to June 2023, that Probox sales had surged and that small cars used for taxi-hailing were driving demand for Japanese models. A Standard headline of 29 January 2026 says Suzuki is winning Kenya's taxi market; we could not read its body, so we do not claim the taxis are all Toyota.

Rules shape the Probox's work. Wikipedia says Kenya banned the Probox and the Toyota Sienta from minibus use in 2019 because they carried up to 14 passengers instead of the five they are designed for. On the parts side, Kenyan press reports in 2019 named 17 kinds of used wear part, among them brake pads, spark plugs, bearings, clutch plates and ball joints, that must be new, and KEBS said it was banning nothing beyond those categories. For a Kenyan operator the wear parts on a Probox or Fielder are a new-parts purchase.

Zimbabwe's hybrids bring a different problem. The Herald reported on 25 August 2024 that the Aqua, Axio and Prius are among the Toyota hybrids arriving there, that their nickel-metal-hydride packs come in already depleted and that local technicians are often not versed in high-voltage systems. In April 2022 the same paper had dealers saying they did not service hybrids, in a report about the Honda Fit. Parts for the rest of the car are what we can quote.

One rule matters for any Zimbabwean list. Under Statutory Instrument 35 of 2024 a certificate of conformity is required on listed goods above US$1,000 FOB, vehicle parts under heading 87.08 included, whether new or used, and the fee, 0.5% of FOB with a minimum of US$240, falls on the exporter. When a list crosses the threshold, a person flags it on the quote so that you and your agent settle the certificate before collection.

Ethiopia's Toyota fleet is Vitz-heavy among the small cars. Addis Fortune reported in January 2022 that an importer at Qera brought mainly Vitz suspension and that his latest shipment cost 30% more than before, and that a buyer who paid about 1,500 birr for a Vitz side mirror a little over a year earlier paid close to 9,000 at the Toyota distributor. We quote suspension arms, links and bushes by number, and a mirror only against the number on the old one. A person screens every Ethiopian buyer before we quote.

UAE yards rarely hold these cars, because most were built for Japan. The East Africa notes say the Probox, Fielder, Vitz and other Japan-only models are rare in the Gulf parc, and mark any overlap of the 1NZ and 2NZ engine families with the Gulf Yaris and Echo as unverified at part-number level. We therefore claim no cross-fit by model. The honest offer is new aftermarket, OE-brand and genuine lines quoted against the Toyota number on your old part.

The number on the old part is the key because aftermarket lines are catalogued against the OE number each one replaces. A person looks your number up, reads your chassis code and year against it, and tells you which line matches, which is a near match to be refused and which is dealer-only. Where a Gulf Yaris or Corolla number turns out identical to yours, the quote says so. Where it does not, we say that too, and nothing is swapped by model.

A trade list for these cars is built from the parts that wear: brake pads and discs, suspension arms, links and bushes, ignition parts and filters, cooling parts and belts. Counted per car it is a manageable basket, and an operator running ten Probox vans orders it ten times over. A single pad set is not an order we quote. The table shows what a list can carry and what decides each line.

Two exclusions come from carriers and not from us. Gas-charged shock absorbers stay off export quotes because carriers can treat them as dangerous goods, so a Vitz suspension list carries springs, bushes, links, arms, ball joints and rack ends but not the dampers. Batteries, fluids and aerosols are left off too. Side-specific parts such as mirrors, headlamps and steering racks are quoted only against the number on the old part.

One engine ties the hybrids together. Wikipedia lists the 1NZ-FXE, a 1,497 cc Atkinson-cycle four, in the Prius from 1997, the Aqua from 2011, the Axio and Fielder Hybrid from 2013, the Probox Hybrid and, in Japan, the Vitz Hybrid. It says the engine was discontinued for international markets in 2020 but remains in the Probox. A hybrid-fleet list is therefore quoted by chassis code, since the same engine code sits in several different cars.

What we quote and what we do not is plain. We quote the service parts of a hybrid fleet, and non-battery hybrid components such as inverter assemblies, by Toyota number and chassis code. We do not quote hybrid traction batteries or twelve volt batteries, because carriers can treat batteries as dangerous goods. That is a real gap for Zimbabwe, where the Herald says packs often arrive depleted, and a buyer there needs a battery specialist for the pack itself.

We measured no price for these cars on 3 November 2026. The only Toyota ladder we hold is for a Land Cruiser pad set, number 04465-60380: genuine at AED 322 to 399, a Japanese brake brand, MK Kashiyama, at AED 216, and budget brands at AED 58 to 73, all with 5% VAT. Use it as a shape and not a price, because a Vitz pad is a different part. The gap matters most to operators who buy in counts: ten vans means ten pad sets a service, and a difference per set becomes a difference per fleet.

On a quote, Genuine means Toyota-branded stock from a UAE distributor, OE-brand means a maker that also supplies Toyota, with Denso and Aisin the examples where a source says so, and Quality aftermarket means a named independent brand made to the Toyota pattern. Zimbabwe's CMED warning of August 2025 about fake parts and the 21% counterfeit prevalence the Anti-Counterfeit Authority found in Kenya both point to the same habit: ask for the brand, the number and a photograph before paying.

Send the chassis code from the plate, such as NCP91, NHP10, NKE165 or NCP160V, the engine code, the month and year of build, and whether the car is petrol or hybrid. Add a photograph of the number on each old part. Then write the list per car with counts, so that a fleet of Probox vans or Aqua taxis is one list. A person replies on WhatsApp with each line's grade and brand, and flags any line checked only by chassis code.

Before paying, compare the chassis code on the quote with your plate, and check that an Aqua line names its generation, because the 2021 car has a different engine. Ask for the brand and number against every line, and a photograph of each box. Check that no battery or damper appears on the list, since neither is quoted. A person confirms how to pay in the chat, and your agent collects in Dubai.
