The Porte was introduced in July 2004, but is only available in Japan, so it is only produced with right-hand drive. The Porte is based on the first generation Vitz subcompact car and is made in 4-seater and 5-seater versions.

It comes with either a 1.3-litre or 1.5-litre gasoline engine, with automatic transmission only, and with either front-wheel driveorfour-wheel drive. It is similar in concept to the 2002 Peugeot Sesame and the slightly smaller Peugeot 1007 which has an electric-powered sliding door on both sides. However the door only slides on the left.

Chronology
Predecessor	Toyota Raum (Spade)

In July 2012, the Porte was redesigned and for this generation, it introduced the Toyota Spade (Japanese: トヨタ・スペイド, Hepburn: Toyota Supeido) twin model, which sported a different front and rear design, as well as a slightly different interior colour. The second generation Porte is sold at Toyota Store and Toyopet Store dealerships while the Spade is sold at Corolla Store and Netz dealerships across Japan, as well as Hong Kong and Macau, starting in August 2015.

Although, it still comes with the 1.3-litre 1NR-FE engine or an improved 1.5-litre 1NZ-FE engine, mated with the Super CVT-i (Continuously Variable Transmission-intelligent) automatic transmission, an available Smart Stop feature for the 1.5-litre variants has a fuel efficiency of 20.6 km/L (58 mpg_‑imp; 48 mpg_‑US) under the JC08 test cycle (equivalent to 113 g/km (6.4 oz/mi) of CO₂ emissions) of the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT).^[5] The two different engine sizes gave Japanese drivers a choice as to which annual road tax obligation they were willing to pay; vehicles with the larger engine were equipped at a higher level than the lower trim level in compensation.

In July 2015, the 1.3-litre engine option was dropped and a newer 1.5-litre 2NR-FKE engine was used for front-wheel drive models. This version has a fuel efficiency of 22.2 km/L (63 mpg_‑imp; 52 mpg_‑US) under the JC08 test cycle.^[6]

Toyota stopped the production of the Porte and Spade in December 2020.^[1][2]
