Toyota Yaris Hybrid 2021 | walkaround & features | Better than a Polo or Fiesta?

All New Toyota Yaris Hybrid 2021 | walkaround & How to use features Explained
Toyota's Fiesta-rival is newer, more economical, and just possibly a little bit smarter than the Blue Oval's iconic supermini.

Both are the bestsellers of their parent company's range in the UK, and both offer glimmers of fun in what is quite a grey Supermini marketplace.

This new Yaris has had quite the kick up backside from the styling department. Compared with the old model, there's a more aggressive nose, and a lower, more supermini-like stance. Banished is the tallboy JDM special look of the old Yaris.

Unlike with old models, the new Yaris is only available as a five-door hybrid automatic. If you want a three-door manual you'll have to go for the hench GR Yaris - how's that for a deciding factor?
Let's talk about the propulsion. Toyota's been building hybrids since 1997, and you know what? It's pretty good at it.

Well, we mean, the old Yaris left a lot to be desired, but this latest 'self-charging' drive system is brilliant. Quiet, smooth, and of course, hugely economical. Official WLTP is 68.9mpg (up from 48.7mpg of the old car), and we reckon MPG in the sixties is achievable for an awful lot of people who mainly crawl around in stop-start town traffic.

The Yaris is an all e-CVT affair. It ain't half bad either (more on that later). While Toyota reckons that a 1.0-litre non-hybrid might come to the UK in the next two to three years.
Let's talk trim levels. Four standard trims will be available, plus, a Launch Edition to kick things off. Launch Edition specs have become de rigueur for car makers. You know the formula. Take car. Add everything carmaker has in parts bin. Throw on special edition colour. Set astronomical price.

The Yaris is no different. Launch Edition spec cars cost £24,005. Or £1730 more than a Ford Fiesta ST-2...

Still, the regular grades are a lot more on the money. Icon is your basic spec. But it still gets a seven-inch infotainment screen, reversing camera, and alloy wheels.

Design spec adds different alloys, a bigger infotainment screen, and wait for it, electric rear windows.

Dynamic models get 17-inch alloys, a JBL infotainment system, and a push button start.

Excel is regular top-spec. This gets blind spot monitoring, auto braking, and a panoramic roof.

Thank you. Very useful. For someone who has driven practically 1 car in his life and has to drive now around iceland in a toyota yaris this was super helpful.

[rakeshsethi]

A great innovative Toyota hybrid system with all safety devices and Comfort as well

[MUSTASCHO]

It's a handsome car packed with technology. I'd seriously consider buying one of I had the money. Second hand cars for me for now though.

[Erokoi]

It's a real pleasure to drive it.

[bernadettenasfi]

Just ordered this in white. First timing driving auto so this is helpful. Thx

[pkaramol]

Ι really don't get this obsession with the reviews always being about the top notch version, while the majority of people due to budget limitations will opt for the mid range grades.
This only makes sense in the context of an advertisement / promotion, not an objective review.

Now available as Mazda 2 Hybrid! I’ve had mine since August 2022 exactly the same car but rebadged as a Mazda. I still don’t know why Toyota gave the car to Mazda but I got my Mazda 8 months quicker than Toyota could supply a Ps I love it

9:13 No, that button (lower half of a dual-function button) doesn't activate the cruise control. The button shown being pushed, is a speed limiter (the speed won't exceed the set speed no matter how hard the accelerator is pushed down). For activaiting cruise control, push the upper half of the button!
9:17 When pushed like shown, the speed is adjusted in 1 km/h or mph increments. If held in the up or down position, the speed will change in 5 km/h og mph increments.

It's quite expensive compared to the alternatives, but no doubt absolutely bulletproof as usual.

[Yuri-te]

This design much more better Asia markets!👍

[DavidHughes-opzl]

No! Seductive and stunningly beautiful as the design is I've rejected it, for two reasons: firstly, in my book it's unforgivable that the maker doesn't include a built‐in satnav (even on the Excrel version) because I can't be doing fiddling around with phone cable connectivity and, secondly, too many commentators complain about excessive wind noise and tyre roar at motorway speeds. Furthermore I was massively unimpressed that a dealer couldn't be bothered to answer six oh‐so‐simple written questions. Thus the maker has cumulatively failed to prise the wonga from my wallet. •Your loss, competition's gain• the latter's dealer coming back to me fulsomely within
a couple of hours after exactly the same enquiry. They succeeded in gaining my custom because they deserved it by >earning< it. My message to Toyota: fall awake!

[forzaazzurri]

Reviews should always be done with the base model, please make sure you do this in your future videos. Nobody cares about the full option.

[AMForouzani]

Do the 2022-2023 yaris style plus as well please

[tectorama]

A shame they just concentrated on the Excel model.
We get our "Design" in a couple of days.

[louisstlaurent]

We place an order 1 yr ago? We're still not driving it We're struggling with the filling;(

[LagunaLeonhart]

Good video showing much needed info. You missed the panoramic roof though. What are your impressions of this? Is it worth it? Does it open electronically?

[saeedyeslam]

Is it good as someone's first car?

[chitpaul]

Has anyone used the brake assist function, , had the brake in the red box display a few times but I’ve been fast enough to stamp on the brake.. just wondering if it will actually stop the car.

[ohemaao]

hi does all the safety features you mentioned come in the design version?

[PSx]

Yaris have a better interior finish than corolla.
