Shame that the engine never got a little more power that would have made this sedan a lot more exciting. Good riddance as they no longer want to make this mediocre vehicle.
Matt, you are a saint. As a car guy, staying so professional and objective on a vehicle that just doesn't elicit much excitement can't be easy. Five minutes into my review and I would've gone full Clarkson and alienated every Yaris owner ever.
I love this car, it has a lightweight body and feels so nimble. I was gonna buy this one but I finally got a abarth 124, since mx5 feels cramp for me. Same interior reminds me how much l loved the Yaris
So not much ZOOM ZOOM in this Toyota? If I could only get a car and not a truck like I want (or a certain Korean Sportback) it would be a hatchback 🚗 style car. I like the versatility of the hatch and livability of them. Thanks for sharing a video of a subcompact that would be a perfect first car or city car to fit anywhere. I agree with you in getting the upgrade $1000 doesn’t add much to your monthly payment for what you get.
Hey Matt if one day you travel to Puerto Rico you probably see the new Mazda 2 2017-2019 but tbh the front end look like the Mazda 3 it doesn’t look like the Yaris at all my opinion For me the new Mazda 2 look like a mini Mazda 3 but it’s true the new Yaris was made based on the Mazda 2 chassis but if I have to pick between the the Yaris hatchback and the Mazda 2 I’ll pick the Mazda 2

The only reason I would buy a Yaris it’s because it’s a Mazda... but the Mazda2 looks so much better. We in Puerto Rico actually have Mazda 2 from that exact saMe generation... its so weird u guys don’t have it since its the same market.
Matt Maran Motoring we have both gen! It’s weird... when I see it I will send u a picture! But it is really weird because we supposedly get the exact same cars that the main land. The “Selluride” tho... I’ve seen around 50 Palisades and only 1 Telluride. Our market its weird. LoL
Nice review. I liked the looks of the previous gen Yaris better. MPG is pretty good, but not as good as my corolla hatch SE. It definitely fills a notch in the line up and I'd take it over the Spark any day.
Is there no manual trans available ? Useless without a manual for sure. The sedan version of this car costs less and has a lot more room ...a no brainer I'd say.
The Spark is much slower and smaller, the Fit is ugly and bad in snow and has a CVT...this little iA might be the ticket! It can get up to 49 mpg avg. according to owners in the reviews on KBB. The Mirage is slower yet...but it is a fun little car.
Not sure why anyone would buy this at all. Get a used elantra or forte backed by a better warranty. Drove this before its awful. Hell go buy a used coralla if you really want to stay with toyota.
Leatherette seats are not nicer! Somehow the auto manufacturers have figured out how to give us less and charge more for it. It's vinyl.Vinyl sucks and was put in all entry level trim cars in the 60s and 70s!
Leave the Supra out of this. The difference is that the Supra was jointly developed. Let alone that the Supra since GENERATION 1 has had a history of collaboration with other automakers, such as Lotus and Yamaha. A noteworthy point is that the Gen 1 Supra was in fact also jointly developed with the Lotus Excel. Acts like co-developing a car or platform-sharing doesn't define purchasing the rights of an existing car from another automaker without being involved to develop it as you pass it off entirely with your brand name, which is what this "Yaris" represents.
It’s a shame we don’t get the GR Yaris is love to get that
Because Toyota would also bring in the regular new Yaris as well, which is also revealed overseas.
6:11 it has 106hp... not sure why you came here for this, but here it is
Shame that the engine never got a little more power that would have made this sedan a lot more exciting. Good riddance as they no longer want to make this mediocre vehicle.
digitaldoc100 Because it’s not meant to be an exciting car? It’s a small affordable car that’s meant to get you from point A to B
I had a 2003 Toyota Echo. That car was bulletproof.
The Echo for that matter was the first generation Yaris.
IAmJustLordFarhan: The Normal Dude indeed. They’re really reliable and cheaper to buy used than a corolla.
@@thecriticalthinkeroutsidet4947 Exactly. Excellent automobile.
A bulletproof Echo would come in very handy driving through CHICANDO
@@Platos-Den Though as I implied, the Echo is actually the first generation Toyota Yaris.
This is a great car for an enthusiast who just doesn't give a shit anymore and just wants to save money.
The only reason I’m watching this is for you, Matt.
Haha well thank you, I really appreciate the support!
Matt this timeline that labels what is happing in the video is so cool👍🏻
I'm glad you like it!

Let's turn onto this back road here and see how.. Uh.. nevermind
Love the timestamps, super helpful. Definitely a feature that is appreciated, especially because I assume it's probably a pain for you to add.
This one is definitely going to go viral vroom vroom
I literally just came from your old CR-Z video and you were wearing the same shirt LMAO. Great review, Matt!

How is a miata crampy and the fiat 124 not?
Hey my first car was a 103 hp Celica and it was kinda fun cus it was so light weight. But I'm sure this thing gets wayyy better gas mileage
I read this morning Toyota is killing off this car at the end of this year. It's a shame. I love my Scion iA.
Hvv,bmn😔😊😊😊😊😊
My first thought this was a Mazda, before you said.
Because it is one.

What a shame this is being discontinued. If I was in the market I'd buy this over anything else in this segment
it isnt being discontinued...
buildmorefarms100 it is, after this model year the Yaris is gonna be no more in the US because of low sales
@@A_guan wheres the proof of that?

Mazda did sell the last generation Mazda2 here, but I believe it was gone by 2015.

good afternoon Matt. nice vid. liked b4 watching b/c I knew it was going to be good

1:02 looks like the car is floating!
It's just too small. I agree with Matt when he says this entire segment is hard to justify other than for cafe standards.
Its a great little car capable of getting 49mpg per owners. Perfect for a single person or couple...also it is good in snow.
@@buildmorefarms1007 AND for secondary or tertiary car!
Imagine this car as a convertible

The problem is that the Corolla exists. A much better car for similar price and mpg.
id go Rio or maybe Fit.
Front end looks like a giant grouper.
Not the GR version so calm down
honda fit/jazz without the utility...
6:41 Hit up south park mitsu for a Mirage. 78hp
Mazda 2 now is Yaris
Z4 now is Supra
Toyota should just do the right thing and rebadge AMG GTR as a Corolla so I can buy one.

Older Mazda 2 shared parts with Fiesta
Lol I just said it looks like my Mazda 2 😂 and mine is Manual!
Because this actually is a Mazda 2.
This car is being discontinued
That is why I’m going to buy one soon.
Then sell it to Jay Leno’s grandkid for $50,000 2020 dollars ($175,000 2070 dollars)
Wheres the proof of that?
review a Toyota Sienna
Nothing about that car is a toyota. It is literally the same as when your mate cheated off your math test
F for the Yaris
second
Firsttt
🍪
...and will be no longer be produced after 2020. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
This is an ugly car
