Fuel Efficient & Fun
Had to buy this car quickly after my Elantra was totaled in an accident. I tried a few out and then drove a Yaris. I loved the way it handled curves, the road, and on the highway.
The best thing about my Yaris is where they positioned the speedometer. My console is in the MIDDLE of the dash. While it takes a few days to become used to this, it's now my favourite feature.
The Yaris is also great on gas. It usually takes about 37 litres to fill her up, but she goes for an average of 500km on this. If you're only doing city driving, it's closer to 450km. I do a combination and fill the car about once a week. My gas is usually under $50.
There are 2 dislikes though. One, she's lightweight, so you'll feel a good gust of wind (especially on the highway). It's not impossible to control the car, just you feel it in the wheel. The second is a small thing. The cup holders are positioned directly in front of the air vents. If you have a hot drink and you've got cold air on, it'll cool your drink. The opposite holds true.
That said, I'm happy with my car. It's great value for your money!
