Toyota Yaris from £11,170

Toyota reveals pricing for its new sportier, more efficient Yaris

Auto Express Car Reviews

19th July 2011

The all-new Toyota Yaris is on sale now from £11,170 – but buyers looking for tax-busting emissions will have to wait.

Sportier looks mark out the supermini, and as it’s 100mm longer than before, there’s more space inside. Spec is improved, too. Yet despite better efficiency across the range, none of the three engines dips below the 100g/km CO2 mark to give exemption from road tax.

From launch, there are two petrol units mated to manual gearboxes: a 1.0-litre offering 58.9mpg economy and 111g/km emissions, and a 1.33-litre with 52.3mpg and 123g/km. The latter can be specified with a CVT auto, to give 56.5mpg and 118g/km.

A 1.4-litre diesel model claims 72.4mpg economy and 104g/km emissions. It will be joined in the middle of next year by a hybrid. This mates a petrol 1.5-litre to an electric motor, for 90mpg and 80g/km, and should cost £1,500 more than the £14,760 diesel. Deliveries begin in September.

Back to the history

Not too bad looking on the outside (for a Toyota !) but once I saw the photograph of the inside I thought I was back in the eighties when I bought my first car. I thought it was not possible to make an inside even more dull than a Volkswagen.

And as both companies sell many, many cars worldwide I suppose than bland is the trend. And on that bomb shell...

Hot model needed....

This new Yaris looks good but I really feel a sports version is needed - as the prospect of a 1 litre or 1.3 litre petrol engine is not very exciting. Toyota should reintroduce a t-sport or 1.8 SR model like before. If they do this I would consider one..
