Toyota Yaris 2014 Reviewed

Toyota Yaris is Spacious and Reliable
The 2014 Toyota Yaris is the last car in Toyota’s small cars list and is the least expensive model in the Toyota line-up. The Yaris was last facelifted in 2012, and it offers the odd option of a three-door model as well as the more usual five-door hatchback. The engine range in the Toyota Yaris also includes two petrols, one diesel, and an ultra-efficient hybrid model, which returns 81mpg and emits just 79g/km of CO2 making it tax free. Toyota also offers the Yaris Hybrid with a CVT automatic gearbox. While the entry-level Active version of the Toyota Yaris gets bright LED daytime running lights and door mirrors with integrated indicators, it does without the alloy wheels, front foglights and body-coloured door handles of the flagship Trend model. Entry-level Active models benefit from dual-zone climate control, electric windows and a multifunction steering wheel, but you’ll have to fork out almost £17,000 if you want a leather-trimmed wheel, Bluetooth or cruise control. At the base of the Toyota Yaris engine range there's a 69bhp three-cylinder 1.0-litre petrol engine. This is great for driving around the town but can get a little noisy at motorway speeds. In regular Yaris models there's plenty of rear leg and headroom, and three adults can easily fit in the back. The economical 1.4-litre diesel manages 72.4mpg and emits a tax free 99g/km of CO2. Residual values are strong, and there are plenty of models for sale on the UK used car market. Meanwhile, fixed-price servicing and a low insurance group rating should help to keep costs down. The Toyota Yaris received the maximum five-star rating in the Euro NCAP crash safety tests, receiving 89 per cent for adult occupant protection and 86 per cent for safety assist.Categories
