Its different with the previous gen. Prev gen avanza there is a 1.3 Base which comes in white only (for taxi purposes only), steel rims with no hubcaps. 1.3J comes in more colors (red, beige, silver) and has third row seats + steel rims w/ hubcaps. Then its straight to 1.5G

Starting with the 2012 new body. 1.3J takes the place of the prev gen 1.3 base but comes in more color choices. 1.3E takes the place of the prev gen 1.3J but with more power features, A/T option and mag wheels. 1.5G is still the same (features) as the prev gen 1.5G
