Design

The Mark X ZiO was based on the FSC concept car.

The "4+Free" vehicle has four independent seats plus free space in the rear. The ZiO's "three mode" cabin can accommodate from four to seven passengers. The six-seat models have two rows of independent seats and a console box with arm rest. In "personal sedan mode," a tonneau board is used to create a sedan-like vehicle. Stow the tonneau board and covers, and the "active wagon mode" creates a large cargo space in the rear. The "friendly minivan mode" includes a third row of seating that can be dropped down to create cargo space. It is similar in concept to but does not share a platform with the Venza. It was considered a luxury car in Japan under Japanese Government dimension regulations and the engine displacement incurred an expensive annual road tax obligation.

The Mark X ZiO shares few features with the Mark X besides the name. The ZiO chassis is derived from the Toyota New MC platform which is the basis of the Auris, RAV4, Avensis and Prius. The front suspension is MacPherson strut, with Double wishbone suspension in the rear.

It was the first Toyota using MOST Bus technology and offered the following advanced equipment options: Pre-crash Safety System using millimetre-wave radar, a Smart Key System (SKS) eliminating the traditional ignition key, Radar Cruise Control, Intelligent AFS (Adaptive Front-lighting System), Intelligent Parking Assist, HDD navigation system, wide-view front monitor with a 190-degree field of view.

For the first year of production, it won the Good Design Award given by the Japan Industrial Design Promotion Organization. According to Japanese vehicle regulations, the Mark X ZiO is classed as a normal-size vehicle.

Production to 2012 was 51,000 units. Production ended in Japan in November 2013.
