    In MK4 model form, the Toyota Yaris has been further Europeanised with sharper styling, a better quality interior, improved media connectivity and significant changes to its segment-leading hybrid engine. What was already a class act has just become genuinely hard to overlook.
    Design and Build
    The Yaris takes its styling influence from the current Corolla family hatch, the panel work adopting various creases to give it some extra flair. Pronounced blister feature over the wheel arches, plus there's complex surfacing over the rear doors - and the car is both lower and wider than its predecessor. Unusually and against the current trend, this MK4 design is actually slightly smaller than the one it replaces, measuring in at 3,940mm - most supermini rivals are over 4 metres long. As usual, of more importance is the stuff you can't see - namely the new generation 'GA-B' platform this car sits upon.
    Inside, you'll notice features more commonly seen in larger cars, including a large 10-inch centre-dash infotainment touchscreen. 'Apple CarPlay'/'Android Auto' smartphone-mirroring is standard. There's also a further TFT information display between the two instrument binnacle gauges. The driver's seat positions you a little lower than before (36mm lower to be exact) and there are plenty of soft-touch materials around the cabin. The dashboard has been made slimmer and is set lower, with a wider and higher centre console. The driver's instrument binnacle has twin digital meters flanking the TFT multi-information display, and is presented with a shallow hood. Last, but not least, the steering wheel size has been reduced. The rear part of the cabin isn't especially spacious, but the boot area is of a versatile size and is enhanced by a variable-height boot floor.
    Market and Model
    Expect pricing to be much as before, which means you'll be looking at prices up towards £20,000. Most models will get features like dual-zone air conditioning, rear privacy glass, push-button start, automatic headlights and wipers, cruise control and auto-folding mirrors. Plus leather steering wheel trim, air conditioning and a smartphone-mirroring-compatible multimedia system.
    Safety was a design priority: Toyota says that this fourth generation Yaris was designed to be the world's safest compact car, featuring significant advances in both active and passive safety systems. Standard advanced driver assistance systems include full speed-range intelligent adaptive cruise control and lane trace assist. In addition to these systems, the new Yaris has been developed to provide the best possible occupant protection, in line with stricter testing standards that will be applied in 2020. For example, to provide protection in the event of a side impact, the Yaris is the first car in its segment to be fitted with a centre airbag.
    Cost of Ownership
    The Yaris' residual values have always held up better than a Fiesta and a lot better than a Corsa and will stack up even more competitively now that the efficiency of this latest model has been improved. It'll help that the new hybrid engine is 20% lighter this time round, contributing to an overall weight saving of around 20kgs. And that a lithium-ion battery pack replaces the old model nickel hydride cells, meaning that more zero-emission all-electric progress should be possible. Toyota is talking of a CO2 figure as low as 86g/km. And a WLTP combined cycle fuel reading of 76.3mpg.
    The Yaris is covered by a five-year, 100,000-mile warranty and buyers also get five years of pan-European roadside breakdown assistance, a three year paint warranty and twelve years of anti-perforation cover. And extended warranty can be bought at extra price as part of a package that includes free MOTs and extended roadside assistance cover. There's a dedicated 'MyT' app that allows you to book a service online using your 'phone. And Toyota has a 'Fixed Price Servicing' plan, so you'll know in advance exactly how much any work will cost before you check into a dealer.

      Valid comment.
      I'm probably looking to get the excel tech pack model which has the 17" wheels. Though I don't really want 17", would prefer 16" on this car for better ride comfort, but want the bigger tyre size of 205 instead of 195. This will give me better grip driving in the country lanes.
      So I will sacrifice some ride comfort for better grip.

    Well im genuinely surprised by this. Both me and the lady had the previous models but the biggest problem we found is the engines were hard work when trying to make progress. I had the 1.33 and it sounded very strained when accelerating, and even then it seemed as though the power was restricted somewhat. Terrible engine design. The 1.5 hybrid was not much better although the CVT was great, we liked that. Good to see a completely new engine in this model. Very overpriced though in my opinion but then again, all new cars these days seem to be ridiculous prices. Cars are simply not good value, but I think thats very deliberate so that most buyers will only be able to afford them on PCP deals.

    • @MattOn1010
      @MattOn1010 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Agreed. I currently have the MK3 hybrid and it doesn't provide enough power for me.
      This new mk4 in 2022 now has 116hp which is very good and 37% stiffer chassis and bigger tyres of 205/45/17, going in corners not longer has the body lean like the previous model.
      Try carwow, I'm looking at the excel tech pack which cost £22.5k. PCP 42 months interest free.
