When Toyota Philippines launched the Toyota Raize, the Japanese automaker knew it had a hit on its hands.

The subcompact crossover ticks all the right boxes for an affordable yet frugal car with the right features.

Toyota was wise to bring in two engine options for the Raize as it is available with either a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated inline-3 motor or a turbocharged 1.0-liter inline-3 engine.

Now that the crossover has gotten some time to settle in, many buyers are curious to know how much it will cost to maintain the vehicle. We tapped into sources inside the Japanese automaker to give you a rough estimate of what you can expect regarding maintenance.

Disclaimer: These figures are the general cost you can expect to pay for maintenance for the Toyota Raize. Note that these figures may change over time depending on what kind of work will be done to your car. These figures apply to the 1.2 and 1.0 turbo versions of the Toyota Raize.
