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 ...

Pros: Probable good resale value
Cons: Sluggish performance with no significant gain in economy
The Bottom Line: Do not buy the overrated Yaris. There are much better vehicles available
I purchased a new Daihatsu Applause in 1993 and without a doubt it was the best car I've ever owned from the perspectives of comfort, reliability, practicality and performance. Nothing ever went wrong with it while I've driven 330,000 ...

Pros: Good value and reputation.
Cons: Possibly not comfortable on your legs.
The Bottom Line: If you can stand it, you'll probably love it.
I read a review from a fellow who was 6'4". I'm not quite that tall. I'm at least 6'2", I figure. I'd like the car if my legs felt comfortable. Lack of comfort was why I traded off the Echo. In that car, the window crank knob stuck into one knee. The ...

Author's Product Rating:  Recommended: Yes
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: AWESOME MPG, roomy interior for small car, big trunk, fits carseats
Cons: Seats not very comfortable, doesn't coast, light shine in eyes
The Bottom Line: Toyota gives you a tiny little vehicle, yet allows you plenty of interior space, adds a few little perks here and there, and blows you away with fabulous gas mileage.
We just bought a 2008 Toyota Yaris Sedan. Our entire reason for purchasing it was for the great gas mileage. We have a family friend who's driven a Yaris for a couple years now (purchased one shortly after they were introduced to the market), and he ...

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 ...

Pros: mpg, great value, safe, worth the money
Cons: speedometer in center of dashboard
The Bottom Line: Great new car to buy since gas is so high these days.
This is a nice cheap, safe reliable car to own.I bought one because of the 40mpg and it is much better than the ford explorer I used to own. If you want to save money at the gas pump then this is the car for you. When buying a car I also looked at ...

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: 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 ...

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: 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 ...

Pros: roomy, good on gas, quiet, comfortable seats
Cons: electric fuel tank reader, no engine temperature reader, lightweight on highways
The Bottom Line: Good for driving around town, not so fun for highways
I had recently turned in a lease on a Honda Civic. Reading the great reviews on the 2008 Yaris, I picked that car after a brief test drive. For one, the interior of the Yaris is incredibly different than the Civic; there are far less controls and more ...

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 ...
