The all-new Toyota Yaris is the Japanese maker's entrant into the higly-contested supermini segment. Aimed directly at the Ford Fiesta and Honda Jazz, the new Yaris represents a significant improvement over its predecessor, offering an impressive range of innovative equipment and more interior space. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Mt wife used to have one of this, it's been working for us like a gem.... bullit proof quality, easy on fuel and services, easy to park in narrow streets, and high resale value, yes it is a little boring to drive, for its price , what more do you want from it.....
I use to own a Yaris before i upgraded to the Avensis and although the interior materials aren't on the same level of a VW (plastic rather than rubberized surfaces), the fit and finish was second to none. It was incredibly reliable, economical and drove well and the customer service was spot on. If i ever went back to a smaller car the Yaris would definitely be one to look at.
Feel free to smash the wheel how many times you like, you'll not deploy the airbag doing that, in fact there are sensors on the front of the vehicle that trigger the airbag when there is a collision.
My Dad has a Toyota Yaris 1.33 TR 5dr in blue and I have to say it is excellent, although the door cards can scratch quite easily, the rest of the car is brilliant. The engine feels quite powerful on the flat and it is very reliable.It has never broken down other than the odd battery going flat. Fantastic car well done Toyota
My 2005 Yaris has comfortable suspension, it's why I bought it. Absorbs the lumps and bumps beautifully. I wouldn't try to throw it around a corner though.
Alot of videos lately LOVE THIS!!!!!
Hi Matt, when doing a turn in the road, try taking the turns off before you come to a stop. That way you wont need to force the wheels round when stationery, it will give you a tighter turning circle, its faster and it looks good.
Good review as always.
I bought a new shape yaris 3 days ago on a 61 plate, I looooove this car, its a cute metallic red and we named the car "Christmas", would recommend it to anyone
It's probably not a car I would buy for myself. But I have to admit it looked like a good solid practical car. What I found strange was that Matt said it handles big bumps well, but not so much small bumps.
Anyway, I'm glad you like your Yaris (or should I say Christmas) so much. Red probably is a good color for it.
thank you for the comment. Had the brum 3 months now, 1 accident later, not caused by me though, I was devastated when some idiot woman hit me from the back. Christmas is repaired but his Christmas magic has disappeared with the repair. Still love the Yaris or there is no way I would have kept hold of it after the knock.eternalhalloween1
Very good review. I was interested in comparisons between the Mazda2, and then he went and gave me one.
Awesome videos guys
Don't stop uploading them
i like to change cars often but i keep buying toyotas and cant bare to part with them so every 20 years i get a new one.
cave redecorator how long have you been living in this world?
LOL, sometimes it seems like forever.
I get my cars every 6 months
you are the type of customer that keeps repeat business alive
Covid19 Virus I have money that’s the reason
More than 1 new video a day! YAY! please continue doing this!:)
Hi Mat. I was so looking forward to this review! Have you tried the Multidrive version? If so, what did you think? Would you go for an automatic Polo or an automatic new Yaris?
What about the steering in twisty roads? Is it responsive?
Loved the chorizo comment, he he.
When will you do a review on the new spec Yaris?
i bought one today 2012 reg t spirit with panoramic roof i love it
I'm thinking of buying one. Do you still like yours?
As someone who owns a Mazda2 (which we bought to replace a previous generation Yaris), I would say the Yaris is overall the better buy. The Mazda2 is definitely more fun to drive, but taking everything into consideration (as this review has pointed out), this is the better car. The Yaris is definitely more economical on fuel. The Mazda2 also suffers the same negative points: blind spot at the A pillar and the ride in the Mazda2 is even worse (as a result of the 'sporty' handling)!
Keep the videos coming! Love it!
Owned this car for 2 years not a single problem and low running costs, bulletproof little thing it will be missed
The Australian version uses the much older 1.5VVTi which develops ~105bhp. The UK version has the newer and much cleaner 1.33VVTi which develops ~100bhp, so it is hardly "much more powerful" and certainly not quieter. The UK version is actually faster to 60mph because it's a manual 6 speed gearbox. Granted the auto box in the Aus version is a proper auto box and not a CVT. The 6.1"screen + 6 speakers is standard on all but the base model, although GPS is optional. Do you get the Hybrid version?
@carbuyer I tried to find Carbuyer page but there isn't any :(
I've had one of these for years now. It never goes wrong. It starts, it stops, it passes the annual mot test with flying colours. It's good on fuel and cheap for tax. I have the 1.3 and whilst no dragster it's quick enough and sounds surprisingly good accelerating. It's just an deal commuter car.
How is it on the motorway?
@@dablackangel surprisingly ok. Will happily wizz along at the legal limit. It's the 1.3 99bhp model, so not bad for a small car.
@@TheGramophoneGirl that's the one I'm looking at... I have a 1litre Yaris atm and it struggles on the motorway. So wanna get a bigger engine but wanna make sure it'll be alright on the motorway
@@dablackangel ah I understand. Yeah I got a 1 litre as a courtesy car when mine was in for service. It was too flat an slow for me. Gutless even. Now it's all subjective but for what it is the 1.3 vvti is quite nippy even on the motorway. The engine comes alive over 3500 revs and makes some fun noises for such a small car. I'd almost say it's rorty. Give one a test drive if you can.
But do give it a bit of welly as it really does come into it's own past the 3500 revs IF you want to make it shift. Before that it's a sensible city car. It's no GTI, but it can be fun. It still handles like a city car though.
My gf has the 07 1.8 yaris SR and swapped it out today for a top spec 2012 1.33 yaris. I have to say, with part leather, soft touch finishing, light steering, refinement and 6 gears to choose from, plus all the equipment. Its a fantastic little car overall. It's nimble In the corners too but frankly it's not as fun to drive as my fiesta.
It's better looking than the old car and as for a camera on a small car, have you seen the parking skills of some people? They need all the help they can get!
I have the Toyota Yaris 2012 red it’s very comfy and good I recommend
The Yaris for the US gets a false boot floor so the cargo area is completely flat when you fold down the seats. Maybe it's optional since I see the mounting points for it in the video. Also, the stereo featured in the review is much nicer than the ones we get in the states.
Is the 1.0 litre engine the same as the one found in the Aygo?
Does anyone have any good recommendations for a first car?? A smaller engine would be preferable as its cheaper for insurance, I was thinking about the Yaris but i'm not sure, any thoughts?
the 1.3l produce 100hp is amazing
I like the sense of humor in British people. This review and Top Gear show are the best
Yes, dry wheeling like that will get you a steering minor on your driving test.
I just bought a 2015 diesel model even though its the lowest trim in terms of options im quite impressed on how nimble and quick it is, its gotta be that hugh torque diesel engine doing that
Love this car
Comprehensive review, interesting accent, brilliant sense of humour. Good on the British, I enjoyed it.
wont fail for crossing your hands as he was still in control of the steering however there was lots of "dry steering" which would have a driving fault noted.
i love the fact that you make your vids longer:)keep up you are doing great!
Great review.
Does the Honda Fit have reversing camera and Bluetooth?
I don't think Mat can make the airbag deploy by beating the steering wheel. As far as I know, the explosive charge inside the airbag unit is only ignited by an electronic control unit, when it detects an impact on the vehicle... Any thoughts?
I'm about to buy this model, and I'm pretty sure that this review was very useful!
Did you buy it? How is it on the motorway?
How is it
By watching this video i am amazed how young was Sir Mat Watson .
He is so cute . Such an entertaining guy .Hats off sir ❤❤❤
Love from 🇵🇰
ur review is great
cant wait to see the sedan =)
test the yaris hybrid please!
can you review the Alpha romeo mito
I like this yaris tail lights better for the fact that the american version looks like a rio5, GREAT REVIEW
Will you test some bigger mid-size saloons that you havent done yet, and which are popular. Like Citroen C5, Renault Laguna, Alfa 159...
P.S. agreed it is a great car regardless and has truly excellent build quality!
um the air bag does not deploy when you hit the steering wheel
Yeah agreed even the 2017 model feels the same. Your hands needs to be constantly on the steering wheel & a bit jiggly too.
Keep going Matt. You're the best ;-)!
What do you consider illegal about the U turn? Seems really standard to me.
You must know what your priorities are when buying a car. For me the Yaris ticks all my boxes. Cheap. Reliable. Low maintenance costs. Great on gas. Easy and fun to drive. Always a parking space. Extremely practical. The perfect car does not exist but it’s hard to go wrong with a Yaris. The BEST car I ever owned!
cat theft?
Such a great car!
Auto and manual. Which is the best for durability?
I like the way the car looks, I must be the odd one. lol
I like the way it looks, but it sounds like a bummer of a car by this review.
@@codypolar6593 have you not heard his conclusion lol
No I love this car
It’s good for a first car
I got the 2007 model, this one has a bigger bum, and more boot space.But it's strange, the rear seats don't recline like the old one, there is less storage dash compartment.I think buyers should go with kia and hyundai.They are hitting the right notes with what buyers want.Except maybe the price tag it's getting up there.
the 2010-present Toyota Yaris/ Toyota Vitz is assembled in
China: Guangzhou
France: Valenciennes
Indonesia: Karawang
Japan: Kanegasaki, Iwate; Ōbu, Aichi
Taiwan: Zhongli
Thailand: Chachoengsao
yay for Yaris !
Dunno, I thought the drivers seat should be on the left side and the steering wheel on the right side 0_o
Fail for crossing your arms while turning?
Which year is it ?
Leg room in the rear is more than in many cars in the class above. Alfa Romeo Giulietta for instance
Which is better hyundai i20 2014 diesel or toyota yaris 2014 diesel what i buy car help me please
Damn, thank you. I became such an expert on where to place the pointer to close that damn google ad after 10 seconds of video playing that I already did it automatically, lol. Thank you for that reference.
The Air bag won't deploy. Except if the front makes some decent contact.
this car is running and it will take you from point A to point B anytime without any problem
Hi Mat, I was waiting your review for this car. It's too bad you still consider this interior as cheap (you didn't same comment for old version due to non-soft touch Interior Panel).
Theres a leaf on the front bumber at 1 48
Why road are not blamed for the ride quality. i live in midlands most of the road are patched repaired it not car fault. i own similar diesel and did 35k miles in 5 months. and i would say this is the best car in its class. and fast as well.
Bilal Ahmed you drove 233 miles every day in 5 months? Holy moly
Hey Can you give me some news when will the new yaris come out in the philippines?
i have the same car just in red i found
9 airbags?
@canlidinc sad to say but it's kinda true.... but when they say it's cheap it does not mean it's crap... cheers!
but the Aussie version has no camera or indicators on mirrors.
@carbuyer Please review the new Hyundai Volester :)
The big glass area is called a window, Mat.
I'm a fan of this car
Bought the Toyota Yaris since my last comment, great car, thanks alot :)
Still got it?
@@watvid1 Sold it this year! But it did me well haha
@@datproadm haha what you got now? Another Toyota?
@@watvid1 Got a nissan Qashqai now
@@datproadm You made your Yaris cry
My dad just bought one of these today.. He's 55
how is it holding up?
i only want this car because os rev camera any other cars out there cheap and has a rev camera?
For a first time car buyer would you guys recommend this or the polo?
Yaris
decided what you use your car for
You'll knacker the tyres and steering manoeuvring with the car stationary like that.
the 1.3 is perfect for city driving and parking but struggles on highways and uphills. the big plastic dash is terrible and retain heat even in winter, AC cannot cool the car as a result.
For a first car should I get this or the Mazda 2? I don't know too much about cars :/
Yaris has a slightly better crash test rating tho
Mazda 2
i mean as a yaris owner it does come with a reversing camera which is helpful ok it’s not fast but for driving in the city it’s nice! it’s easy to drive and park because it’s not to big and it’s a cheap good looking caf
Have to agree, mage, I'd in fact say that the Koreans (ie Kia and Hyundai) are rapidly catching up quality wise.
And that is assuming they haven't caught up completely, which one can make a case of them having done.
Love the video, as always, Matt, but I am not impressed by the new Yaris.
Good car
Why did they get rid of the practical dashboard and clever rear seats of the old model. Madness.
Please do the new Kia Rio!! :D
That was perfectly legal!
sound like great technology 1995 Honda Civic HB VX 50 Highway 39 City
I can see a lot of people buying this car but being disappointed.. The old one was beautiful! I took my driving lessons in it and passed first time! :)
Ahh.. The Spanish sausage shelf. You have to have one of those. That's a 3000$ option, if I'm not mistaken.
The 2012 Yaris comes with 9 airbags, 2 more than the 2011 making it all the more safer.
Yes, it does look much better, shame about the dash design, doesn't look well thought out :o(
I don't think it takes a genius to realise that the shelf could be used for pens, keys, change and so on.. Oo
2:37. Failed to indicate. Test failed
Didn’t check blind spot major fsil
johncitizen76 Innit!
nice car!
My wife just bought one today 1.0 xs I trust toyota reliability i don't care for anything more.
How is it
it won't deploy unless you hit the car on the outside, not from the inside. nobody will crash their cars directly into your steering wheel.
I would think that was for hanging an umbrella instead of the Spanish Sausage....
You could have done that turn in the road in a 3 point turn if you where clever with the steering 😂
Is it me or the back end profile look a bit like the Peugeot 207 ?
