The original Toyota Yaris was distinctive and fun, with plenty of space inside for passengers. The latest model is a solid and dependable car with a lot going for it - including plenty of space and standard equipment, but does it have what it takes to stand up to the competition? The Yaris comes with a range of frugal petrol and diesel engines, as well as an efficient hybrid, and is available with a choice of three or five doors.

The second a car breaks down all the "fun" comes straight out of it. Reliability over anything. That's why I drive a Toyota
thanks for the advice
Reliable is all that matters to me
Boring life
Broken down cars are boring as well.
@@headcas620 continuously fixing ur mustang and Ferrari, and not getting over with ur loans is worse than boring life
Lol
@@adnanamin3068 amen brother amen
I have a yaris, best car ever! small yet so dependable and efficient
Is it still the case? I'm buying mine soon
@@hajeralanazi8379 I've given to my now teen driver and I still adore it because it's really low maintenance and has some more good years on it still.
@@amandas7455 thank you :)
I dont know what this video is on about...i own this car, 5 door with the 1.3L engine and man thats a little poky engine! I mean, you really dont expect the punch that it delivers for the power it has, its really good..the gearbox is an absolute joy! Its notchy in a good "mazda mx5" way, the chassi feels super planted and playfull, brakes are good, engine sounds amazing, and it IS quiet! I drive this car on fast german autobahns everyday (160kmh+) and it is not loud at all! Even at 180/190kmh it is still quiet enough that i dont feel i need to raise the radios volume..and by the way radio: what speakers do toyota put in this thing?! It sounds AMAZING! Its an awesome car and YES a lot of fun to drive! I would buy it over and over again..love it
Pe Peroni What’s your average fuel consumption? Alot more interesting to hear from a user. :-)
I passed my driving test in this car a while back. Great car!
I always hear European reviewers criticising the “Quality” of Toyota plastics. I live in Australia and very few plastic car interiors handle the extreme heat over many years the way Toyota’s do, so I would suggest using another word other than “Quality” if you want to describe what you dislike about the plastic.
I have a 2014 model automatic Yaris hybrid, it's also my first car. As a new driver I find it super easy to drive and just the right size for me. I also like the bluetooth syncing with my phone for music and automatic wipers and headlights. Although the Honda Civic-R is my goal one day.
I had a Ford, a Hyundai and two Toyotas, so I say with all due respect Ginny, I'd go with the Yaris because I had nothing, but anger and frustration with Ford and specially Hyundai whether I had almost no problems with my Toyotas. Yes, they may be boring, but is there anything more bothersome than a problematic car? The Fiesta with the Powershift transmission is one of the most extremely bitter lemons out there and Hyundai's after sales service in my experience is a complete joke.
+JELH Why do 'auto journalists' constantly denigrate and dismiss reliability? There is nothing boring about a car that never breaks down. Waiting at the garage while the mechanics go on a very expensive fishing expedition to diagnose the latest breakdown is the epitome of boredom and frustration. The easiest thing to engineer into a car is fun and the hardest thing is reliability.
Merci beaucoup to the people in Valencienne , France you build a very good car!
Seem to be hearing a mixed bag about ford, I drive a 2001 focus and it's never broke down or had any problems, you always see in the papers and on the radio or wherever when someone says I'm thinking of getting this car or that car, if one car is a focus the expert always recommends that because it's reliable and cheap to repair if anything does go wrong.
Your 2001 Focus appears to be the exception that proves the rule. There are many objective and quantitative sources that demonstrate the mediocrity of Ford products.
+Desperate4Attention I've heard of mk1 focus' often reaching 300k miles, I don't know where all the negativity is coming from, I don't know if you live in the states but in the UK ford have been reliable good cars since around the introduction of the focus.
+Desperate4Attention EU Fords usually do quite well in big reliability surveys, sorry.
Still driving my 2008 Toyota Yaris. Daily drive of 50 miles. Never let me down!
I don't see the reason you rated the yaris that much lower than its competitors. It might not be fun to drive or quiet, but it is bigger, more reliable and better value than many of its rivals while the efficiency seem to be equal to them. You must take into consideration all the aspects of a car.
+Γιώργος Παπαδόπουλος Let's see how the reliability of the BMW Diesels Toyota is now putting in some of their cars compares to the genuine, Toyota 1.4D in the Yaris.
+Firemarioflower Yoy are wrong if you think that I prefer the yaris over its rivals. However researches shows that toyota is still one of the most reliable car makers and for many people that is the most important thing. If you don't believe me go check the autoexpress galop that runs now.
i just dont understand why car infotainment systems are soo freaking slow ??? i mean its 2016 ffs.. a good mediatek SoC would run a 1080p ((we all know those are not 1080p screens they are not even 720p...)) screen at 30/60fps constant and it costs like 3~25$ MAX .... car manufacturers are idiots when it comes to tech .... get an-android tab with 480p/720p screen make an-app/launcher for the cars system and call it a day god knows those things cost like 10~30$ for the whole thing >>
+KingStivan agree it shocks me when you see a system in 2016 lag like hell? $50 chinese tablets are faster! it would be so painful that I'd rather not have it than have a crappy, laggy one.
Edd Stance i know right ! just give us a free tablet/phone mount with charging integration and a free app that i can download for the damn thing >> trust me car makers its cheaper this way and the system could be fresh for YEARS ((i doubt that they want the last part to be true >> ))
Truer words have never been spoken
scotianbank i said the same thing about a merc system and nearly got burnt :P
+KingStivan Reason for car infotainments lacking features and slow regardless of brand is because they are looked down upon. Infotainment divisions in companies never get too big of a budget. Companies are more focused on and invested in driving characteristics, safety concerns, structural issues, making car suitable for both usa and european markets etc.
You can also check this article for things i didn't mention above
www.digitaltrends.com/android/why-car-infotainment-systems-lag-behind-smartphones/
My personal opinion is just get rid of the infotainment and put some proper buttons and switches on the car. Touchscreen is a safety hazard because it requires you looking at where your finger is while you can feel a button and dont have to look at it. Everybody has their phones and tablets. Sattelite navigation is the only screen a car should have.
I've just bought a red 2011 1.3 model. And so far it's great.
We have had ours for five years never missed a beat reliable comfy good on fuel not as noisy as they say plenty of room back and front and im 6ft not expensive to service 😀
There is nothing “happy” about waiting in a queue to speak to a Ford service manager about the latest faults that they haven’t fixed. Toyota’s only need petrol and a service/mot once a year. Happy days.
If you buy the diesel version be aware that the particulate filter may get blocked after a while. You're gonna love paying the eventual astronomical bill...
I have same car in Pakistan but there is no Yaris. Toyota vitz 1.0 L. With CVT transmission. Model is 2015. I am used last 3 years I don't have any problems with this ecnomical fuel saving car with chill a/c. 👍👍👍. Perfect car for 5 person
More reliable than any other in its class.
Nice radio dials.
It's a favourite for older people? Wonder how they get heavy shopping bags into the boot, it seems to be very impractical to load. Btw you should really test practicality for a car like this, it's much more important than wind noise at high speed or a fancy dashboard!!
are you all 12 or something. its a car review, not a porno.
+colj001 chill
+colj001 Bet " carbuyer italia " the lady presenters do the review in a bikini ...
Rick Green llll?
Complete package
Ikr
Thank heavens for this presenter shes brilliant.
Very nice Yaris, I'll take it over the Polo or Fiesta
I hope they do some more car reviews while it is still cold...
I got one of them cars as I past my driving test I think it’s fun to drive
Reliable > exciting
Especially if you are on budget, dont need the money trouble and cant afford repairs regularly
She has her high beams on!
Looks small but is quite roomy inside, owned a 2012 VW polo and that felt quite small inside, but the Yaris has good adequate space. I purchase this based on that I wanted the reliability factor more than anything else. MY VW polo was a bit of a disappointment cause it only did near 62,000 and needed a big repair cost which I thought no chance.
stepmum recently chopped her 2011 fiesta econetic for one of these and she loves it!
fitted a nitrous oxide kit to my 1.0 . It's good fun
I don't mind engine noise at all. It makes it easier to tell if something goes wrong. Personally, I'm very much over music these days and would rather listen to the sounds of the road than a crappy radio, any day.
Hahahah, finally someone agree'ing. The AGila 2000-2007 (same as Corsa) has very nimble engine, and sound insulation is low but you know exactly by sound when to go to higher gear or when you are to low, or when you didnt put it far enough, i then insta reflex to neutral and put it back again to fix.
I had someone in Huydai I20 with heavy sound insulation and she couldnt hear she was in to low gearbox 50% of time, i just know by looking at dashboard, seeing number and putting my ear on dashboard, then i heard the motor protesting.
One reason i don't like the Corsa E (2015), the Corsa D still has adequate balance (more silent then Agila)) but still audible for mistakes and clutching, btw Opel has the best petrol noise imo, so hearing it is nice rather then silent car, i'm always worried in silent car.
I would buy this yaris, if demand and supply (2010-2014 model) wasn't so terrible. For some reason there's not much on market and if they come, they charge 3000-7000€ to much (compared to Corsa D for example).
i learn to drive in a yaris and love it !
brilliant car
I heard people are complaining about the cluth... but isn't all the yaris from 2006 to present.. using a cable cluth instead of a hydrolic clutch??
I know that the cable cluth has a more black and white engament with barley any grey zone for engament, but it's more reliable and long lasting for the clutch!!
BUT Which version of the Yaris did she prefer????
I actually remember your yaris review you can still find it on UA-cam
Do you have a link?
Toyota is the best car manufacturer
I like those headlights 😊
Can I just say that your style of reviewing has improved tremendously. I've really started to like your reviews!
Will this be a good 1st car for an 18 year old lad
Mat is no longer my favourite presenter ..Ginnny is,, for two good reasons..
She's definitely more well "rounded"
Matt's my fave reviewer for one good big reason 😉 His reviews are often well equipped!
+roblex63 I have three reasons: Two pointy ones, and one big round one.
Pedro Arenales B. you naughty boy ..i'm talking about her ......eyes.......
+roblex63 I'm ashamed to say i noticed too
She gives the 1968ish type feel. The free waving, care free personality along with the English accent really screams #freethenipple.
Oh my God, I love your voice and your accent, I would listen to you say CAR a million times.
if you buy this car you must have liked it a lot for some reason, and you better stick to it because in long ownership it will pay off. But as a new car it is not much worth as a value car.
I love my 2017 Yaris!
Insulting towards older drivers. Look love, we are not all pensioners OR 20 years old. The tone of her review is negative and patronising.
I just bought a 2016 Toyota Yaris manual its a good car to drive apart from the reverse it seems a bit harder than other cars
Cold innit
Spoiler alert: There is one on the Yaris.
budumtish! good one.
TYSM THIS WAS SOO GOOD FOR AN EDIT
Was a cold day or she was excited by the new Yaris
its colD! IS IT?
You've managed to make the review of a fairly boring car into a truly exciting event, now that's talent. The opening sequence saw you making some very hard and beautifully presented points. Thank you for the wonderful, uncensored, treat!!! I can honestly say you've taken Jennifer Aniston to school in getting your points across, not something to be taken lightly. OK, I'm sorry (truly I am) but I couldn't resist as I've not completely lost my man card (yet) and this was written tongue firmly in cheek. Please keep producing the well researched and presented vids and I'll continue to watch for sure. But know I'll never look at a Yaris in quite the same way ever again pretty lady!!!! Cheers.
AC is standard for all new cars in Serbia for almost 8 years...
Srce
I got a ford focus and want to get rid of it for a Toyota corolla or yaris. the Ford has nice styling and drives good, but it is cheaply and poorly built with poor mechanical reliability, I have already replaced the steering rack and now the heater core has failed and the car only has 70,000 kilometers on it. the engines are not made to last as they are designed by Yamaha and ford. I have driven a yaris and I believe they will last a longtime without too many issues
I just got a yaris of 2007 and it looks a great car Tbh.
Do cars not have A/C as standard in Europe? Here in Australia every car comes with A/C.
Lots of cars in the uk do come with a/c as standard but you don't really need it. I expect in countries like Spain they would come with a/c as standard because it's so hot.
I have a mk 3 Yaris. Gets the job done!
+thefowlyetti2 Got a Mk1. Been dependable for 16 years :)
+Harley Lusk How many km or miles on the thing?
Heh, a not-so-impressive figure of 51,000 miles, though I've definitely seen a few over 200k without any issues.
That is an impressive figure but in an equal and opposite way.
>which can be adjusted at the dealership
Which ass backwards as it's done for a fee, where on a lot of cars, namely GM's, you could adjust this at home at any given point using the car's menu options.
i like the front only
The Yaris is a good car, it is economical, low running costs. However, the manual gearbox is annoying. If you drive on a highway which is not entirely flat, some hills, you constantly have to downshift to either 5th or 4th gear when in 6th gear at around 80-90 km/h,. The engine does not have enough power!!! You can drive on cruise control for like a minute or two before you have to downshift! If I get another Yaris, it will be "automatic", E-CVT.
This is a good looking hatch. Wish it were available in India.
That's weird, in Costa Rica, we didn't get this Yaris, we got a bigger one that looks more like a small station wagon and less like a hatchback. I like this one better...
+scotianbank A Yaris station wagon? Fascinating.
Why oh why did they not angle thenav/infotainment screen towards the driver - it keeps catching the light.
I might want to get this for my 16th birthday or maybe the Toyota Corolla 2016
I would love a Yaris diesel in the US.
One of those cars that looks good only if you have the topspec one with fog lights, painted mirrors, alloys and spoiler. Makes it far more expensive that the base model listed in the brochure.
Dashboard layout is a bit nasty too. I mean it's not bad, but neither is it a very attractive dashboard... I don't care so much for how hard of soft the plastics are, but it has to look good!
Here in the USA we get the 1.5L! Excellent power
But your fuel prices are a lot lower than ours.
I'm not sure why the i10 is linked to this. The Fiesta, sure, but the i10 is an A-segment car, so the i20, Polo, Corsa or 208 would've made more sense.
Sorry ginny but this is a good review style wise but so wrong against Toyota faithful just not true
Can't wait to see car wow review of this
im stuck weather to get this or a 2013 mini cooper? which one is better budget wise
is this the sport Yaris 2015 1,33 litres?
what is the standard package on a sport model?
reversed camera etc?
Yaris the best!!! Come on Ford Fiesta are you kidding me ??
Toyota X-design is really... the politest way to say it is AWKWARD!
I will be driving soon and I need to know what is the best super mini on the market what i am looking for is
Cheap in price
Reliable
Young age
Cheap insurance
Road tax free
And good mpg
Please help me carbuyer!
Does this have a built in CD player ? And joe many gears does it have ?
The Second Gen may look dull but trust me... the engines are a lot better especially the older 4 cyl 1.0 and 1.3 which have now been replaced by a 3 cyl 1.0 and a 1.33 start stop... i have a 2008 1.3 TR model with 118bhp and 0-60 in just over 9 seconds... none of the 3rd gen even come close to that... Toyota need to face facts that with a small engine range and cheap interior and exterior parts they are losing customers... Renault offer a 2.0 in the Clio, Audi offer a 2.0 in the A1 and most others do a 1.8 petrol and 1.9 diesel... not a 1.4 diesel which isnt the most reliable either... more engines and less grey plastic is needed on the 4th gen or Toyota will lose their market share in the biggest UK car sector
Modern Toyotas have completely lost their fun factor, yes they are amazing all rounders with second to none reliability and ease of driving, however going from a 2013 auris that I drove the other day back to my personal car a MK1 Yaris t sport. The auris provides no feedback through the wheel due to the fact that the steering is electronically assisted and far to light plus the brakes are way to sharp and the fly by wire accelerator pedal is so disconnected a carrier pigeon would be quicker and have less delay. I have honestly never felt so out of control in my life. Other than that though don't get me wrong new Toyotas are solid cars and won't let you down. My advice is buy a Yaris t sport or a vitz rs turbo if you can get your hands on one😂😂
It's cold ou there!
boring? i think it's such a cute sweet little thing alright i admit it's not quite as cool as the new 2021 yaris but its still a cute but modern at the same time little car
Looks like a very pokey little start, but ca it swallow a large suitcase, I must have to squeeze one in there, always going to the airport,,
is there a big difference between the 2011 to the 2016? I have a 2011 and my brother is thinking about this for reliability and price.. There good cars but not really a good car for highway or cross country driving. I don't like the power but I know it's a more economical car.
Dom not good for highway? Utter rubbish. These cars can sit perfectly well at the speed limit, so why do people insist on saying such garbage? Ive had loads of small engined cars, and been long journeys with no problems in all of them. The road isn't a bloody racetrack. Problem is macho behaviour these days. Must have big car with big powerful engine LOL. Its an ego thing.
Which is better Hyundai Accent Or Toyota Yaris
In terms of reliability and performance
Damn Yaris in asia is much better than the europe version
everything is more better in asia
My older brother bought this car 2 years ago But he did not realize that he bought the car at a higher price. Now he wants to sell it, but he is not getting a fair price for the car, which is why he is now at a loss.
@Suzanne Duncan This happened to me when I first bought a used car. Then when I went to buy a second-time use car I took confidentcarbuyer course support to become proficient in this matter this given to me by my dad, so was lucky. There are many videos out there though,
but this was just compact and free too,,,.
stop it guys! It was a cold day...
As an older driver, makes me so mad that apparently this makes the car not attractive to anyone else 🙄🙄
this yaris is waaaaay a lot better than yaris for indonesian market
i can see on that top that it's a bit cold over in britain... :)
My 12 plate has rust spots all over the roof and tailgate,Toyota werent intrested.This is my 4th Toyota,dont know if i would get another.... very unhappy
I had a mk 3 2012 model 'same car without 2016 facelift' hated the one wiper system. Left a big unwiped area on passenger side. Tinny as sh*te. Thick pillers obstruct night vision and CVT model screamed at you when you needed power.Also people will notice this now that I have brought it up-the brakes are noisy. there make a drown and the dealer couldn't fix it. I drove a courtesy car and that had the same problem. I hope there have fixed it on facelift model. The Yaris is made in France !, I changed it for a SKODA Rapid. Best car I;ve had.
Yaris has the sparkle of being more reliable compared to the unreliable Ford, Citroen, Peugeot, Audi, VW and BMW cars. This means you'll have more money on enjoying life than spending your hard earned cash on fixing these unreliable cars
Excatly
I'm 185cm and I feel sooo cramped when I sit in front... not with leg room but with head room. I've hit my head multiple times getting in and out of these
+Bruce Lee Thats odd, I'm 187 and didn't experience that a year ago when I test drove one of these. Are you sure you put the seat in the lowest position? (It adjusts in height as well)
Great review.
Very disappointed in Toyota cars lately. Can't believe the previous model yaris is better than this new model. The older one is quieter, has better quality interior plastics and overall feels better built and more solid. The first time I closed a door on this new model it sounded soooooooooooo tinny... I swear I had broken it!
WHAT THE BURNING FUCK??! British women don't wear bras when they wear a knit shirt??? Crazy.
Ginny is looking much better in this car review! Follow her since Motorweek UK! Ginny you rock, girl! Yeah!
I drive the 1.4L turbodiesel version of this chassis and the boost is quiiiiiick
do the toyota yaris sedan version
How much the Indian price this car Nice one and comfortable
I think I'd rather wait for the C-HR.
Is it a 5 seater?
