2011 Toyota Yaris

Trim: black

2011 Toyota Yaris Sedan - winter road test/ Review
There's a Yaris for everyone, no matter if you prefer a super-compact yet super-practical hatchback or a more traditional, conservative four-door sedan.

The 2011 Yaris offers one of the largest in its class at 388 litres. The opening is relatively wide and deep, and the step isn't too high either. What's more, with the 60/40 split-folding rear seats, you can increase cargo capacity at any time.

Much like the hatchback, the sedan is motivated by a 106-horsepower, 1.5-litre engine. It may not be the most potent around (the Fiesta's generates 120 horsepower), but this diminutive mill delivers generous torque (103 lb-ft).

The standard 5-speed manual transmission works beautifully thanks to smart gear ratios and a fairly-precise stick, but if you drive regularly in heavy traffic, you may want to consider the optional 4-speed automatic ($1,000).

The 2011 Toyota Yaris Sedan fares pretty well on the road. The suspension offers a good balance between ride and handling, while the brakes are easy to modulate.

Winter driving !00km) turned in a fuel consumption average of 7.8 L/100 km – and expect a much lower number during the summer.

Conclusion:

Whichever Yaris you choose, expect a highly-efficient, affordable small car that will serve as a nice backup to public transit for your daily commute.
