Pros: Good gas mileage; Toyota reliability; surprisingly roomy; stylish
Cons: No frills; no telescoping wheel; average acoustics; misplaced instrument panel; over priced
The Bottom Line: If you don’t need a car with a lot pep and want good gas mileage the Yaris might be for you, just get the highest trim level possible.
When I purchased my 2006 Honda Civic I waited months to write a review of it, but this time around I’m writing a review of my new car before I’ve even had to re-fill the gas tank. I’m not too crazy about it and I’m actually having ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: gas mileage, cute and kinda sexy styling, peppier than Aveo
Cons: Space - or lack thereof.
The Bottom Line: If you must be frugal, mind as well look good doing it.
Those who have read my automotive reviews, they are normally the performance-oriented kind. Even when I was going for something more street-worthy, it had to be something that performed just as well on the autocross circuit as well as livable on a daily ...

Pros: cheap to buy, insure, fuel. easy to park, maneuver.
Cons: small may equal more injuries in collisions with almost any other car
The Bottom Line: great car for the money
The Toyota Yaris is the most affordable Toyota around, but it really doesn't feel entry level. Overall, the car's engine is surprisingly sufficient. On paper, numbers such as 106 hp at a high 6000 rpm and 103 lbs-ft torque at 4200 rpm would lead you to ...

Pros: wonderful car, low maintence cost, and great
Cons: Made for teens who probably won't appreciate it wanting "pimped cars"
The Bottom Line: very good car because it saves me money, I have room for friends and I get a comfortable good ride.
To best describe how I feel about this product I think its best I explain the history and a little bit about me. I was a senior in highschool and I drove a buick lesabre. As I was going to turn for my normal route to school a truck ran the red light ...

Pros: 35MP/40MPG
MP3 Player
30-35 dollars fills up the tank
Cons: Nervousness from getting crushed by a SUV.
Seats can be uncomfortable on long drives.
Noisy.
The Bottom Line: Great budget car with excellent gas mileage. However, increased vigilance necessary to avoid potential fatal accidents. Great for a commuter.
Overview I purchased this car after driving my father's Camry for most of my life. I got fed up with the poor gas mileage on the camry. I was deciding whether to buy a Corolla or the Yaris. Both cars are similarly equipped and have ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Fuel mileage, sporty appearance, easy parking, price
Cons: None yet
The Bottom Line: You can't go wrong if you're looking for a reliable car to get you from A to B cheaply while keeping a sporty appearance.
After driving a 1993 Toyota Corolla for 14 years it was time to get a new car. I thought I wanted to get another Corolla but could not justify the price they were asking. A salesman talked me into test driving the Yaris. I couldn't believe the room it ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Excellent gas mileage and range.
Good ride/seat
Very roomy
MP3 jack great
Cons: Road noise is loud
No cruise control
Speedometer hard to see w/trifocals
The Bottom Line: This is not a BMW but for what it is you can't beat it! I'd buy it again.
While the front of the car is somewhat short and stubby I'm really getting used to it already. The rear of the car is rather nice but the flat sides are rather hideous. The interior is very well laid out but focusing on the center mounted speedometer ...

Pros: Refined engine, room, boot, A/C, gearshift
Cons: No sense of power or urgency from engine, hard suspension
The Bottom Line: Great commuter car, good in city traffic, but built to proce, not a real sedan
I have driven the Yaris around for 3 months and found it to be a great little car wth all the typical Toyota traits: lots of car for a little money, great fuel efficiency, clean build and design and no quality problems. But here in the Middle East, the ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Great styling.
Gas mileage.
Cool AC.
Responsive tracking/good ride!
Cons: I have found nothing bad, about this car.
The Bottom Line: I see this car as the necessary answer to the rise in gas prices.
So much comfort and such good options, make this car, the wave of the future!
I bought the Yaris, sight unseen, I never took a test drive, I merely went to a local dealership, sat in the various models, looked in disgust at the add ons and mark-ups from the dealer, and then went to the credit union and had the car delivered to my ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Price $15,400 fully loaded, fuel economy, Toyota quality. 8 air bags.
Cons: Funny center dash, but it is easier to use.
The Bottom Line: Buy this car-still made in Japan, and if it is anything like our other Toyotas it will run 250K with minimal problems.
I needed to replace my wifes Toyota truck, and as she had been using it as a commuter (20MPG or less) we deceided that a car would be a better choice with fuel prices the way they are. We wanted to stay with Toyota, as we have owned 4 and they have ...

Pros: Great on gas, easy to find parking (small car),roomy, automatic engine is quick
Cons: Blind spots, high dashboard.
The Bottom Line: Great little car for space & fuel.
My fiance purchased a 2008 Yaris for "us", he said as he put his belongings in the trunk. The said trunk of this car has great depth & width. Forgive my lack of specs, but it easily fit a huge boxed-up Costo run. Moving onto the interior of the car, ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: No 
Pros: decent power, good mpg, tight suspension, good for city driving, comfortable seating
Cons: new car smell, claustrophobic interior, very noisy and harsh ride.
The Bottom Line: Best for city driving and not for extended highway driving
Cute looking little car, with very little wasted space. On the inside there are many storage areas in a car so small. There is even two glove boxes, one in the traditional location and one in front of the steering wheel. The hatchback is very ...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: MPG, storage bins, style, interior layout, hatchback utility, ease of maintenance, owners web forums
Cons: view through rear window, option pricing and availability, seat bottom comfort
The Bottom Line: The most enjoyable ride for the minimum amount of fuel of the few economy class cars on the road.
To be honest, I didn't want to give up the utility of my Suzuki XL-7 small SUV, but at $3.75/gallon, the fuel savings on the Yaris makes the loan payment, and at $4 I am saving money each month. If you liked the old Civic hatchback (CRX or ...
