We bought one 18 months ago. It is an utter delight to drive, it’s fully
automatic and as smooth as silk. We are averaging 4.5 litres per 100km
[63mpg] in general motoring, and our best consumption was a trip of 3.5
litres/100km [80 mpg]. That 100hp electric motor plus engine gives a
fantastic overtaking boost and it will hit 100mph if you are that foolish.
Downside? The boot is rather small and the sat-nav is …well… crap. We
turned it off and stuck our TomTom on the screen!
cood review, but you did mot mention that it is quite zippy. and it almost
can compete with a polo gti when accelerating, and the polo hast 180 hp
compared to the 100 ot the yaris. search in youtube for “yaris hybrid polo”
Retired people?
Can’t imagine the reversing camera is much use pointing up at the sky like
that, lol.
in romania it cost 15.999 E the sol version
The hatch was prolly up lol
Hell yeah! Thta’s the defintive city car, way better than any diesel.
Dieselin the city mileage is totally useless and you have billions of
problems with the FAP filter.
in the US the interior is designed after the prius, like the center spedo
and the hybrid info system. in germany and europe ze customers might ze be
scared, so we get analoge dials…
Revolutionary car
Not sure if a joke or a serious review…
The WORST thing about a lot of cars is that it is almost impossible to get
in and out of the front and rear seats through the door apertures. Why do
they make using their doors feel like an episode of the krypton factor?!
Some countrys have this as standard. Sounds as if the UK doesn’t.
Why is the reversing camera is pointing to the sky 0:57 ?
400,000 miles in prius?? :O
Problem I have with this car is the price…. without any noticeable
standard equipment the cheapest model costs roughly 20000€ in my country…
VW Polo diesel with a bunch of extras costs less… And if we go to Skoda
Fabia things get even worse for the Yaris … I mean, it is a nice car, but
the price difference in my country would buy you fuel for a few years at
the very least. I know that countries are different, it is a pain to see
the prices around here…
Is the boot open?
Optional height adjustment for the seats ? :/
Er, reflection of the sky, Monkeyboy. Just a bad shot because of the light.
HJ should have re-shot, but looks like the whole thing was so rushed he
didn’t have time. You have obviously never ever been on a car launch.
in the US this is the Prius C
Worst test guy ever. Booooring
