Toyota Yaris Buying Guide

What types of used Toyota Yaris cars are there?

The Toyota Yaris is a supermini, or small hatchback, and while there’s only one body style available, there’s also a similarly named but separate crossover model called the Yaris Cross. Your used search will likely bring up hybrid-only current-generation models and previous generations, which have been available with hybrid and regular combustion engine options.

Popular Toyota Yaris trims

Although Toyota typically uses the same trim level names year after year, what you get varies depending on the generation.

> Toyota Yaris Icon - entry-level option with a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment display, reversing camera and climate control system

> Toyota Yaris Excel - high-spec upgrade with a bigger screen, adaptive cruise control, digital instrument cluster and keyless entry

> Toyota Yaris GR Sport - sporty spinoff with an aggressive body kit, striking alloys, part-leather part-suede upholstery and firmer suspension

Toyota Yaris history

The Yaris has been around since 1999, and it’s now in its fourth generation. Although every model has looked fairly similar, styling, safety and standard equipment have vastly improved over the years.

> Third-generation Toyota Yaris XP130 (2011) - sharper styling than its predecessor, and was the first Yaris to get a hybrid option

> Toyota Yaris XP130 facelift - the Yaris got two facelifts in 2014 and 2017, but they were minor updates rather than total overhauls

> Fourth-generation Toyota Yaris XP210 (2020) - modern-looking update with a more upmarket interior, only available as a hybrid

What features does the Toyota Yaris have?

Every fourth-generation Toyota Yaris for salecomes with a touchscreen infotainment system, however sizes vary. When it launched, Toyota used a seven-inch display, but an update upgraded this to nine inches, or 10.5 inches in higher-spec cars.

Every model also gets a reversing camera, as well as automatic lights and wipers.

Popular mid-spec Design models add LED headlights and tail lights as well as tinted windows, but the biggest upgrades come from the higher-spec Excel and GR Sport cars which get keyless entry, adaptive cruise control and a large, customisable digital instrument cluster.

Is the Toyota Yaris reliable?

Toyota has an excellent reputation for building reliable, long-lasting cars, and the Yaris is now sold with an industry-standard three-year warranty that can be extended up to 10 years with annual servicing at eligible garages.

The hybrid system is also tried and tested, as the company has had more than two decades’ experience building mass-market hybrid cars.

How much does the Toyota Yaris cost to run?

Toyota’s official tests state that anywhere between 60-70mpg could be possible, and we think an impressive 50-60mpg could be easily achievable even with a few quick overtakes, which means fuelling a used Toyota Yaris hybrid could be a lot cheaper than many other petrol-powered superminis.

Thankfully, other running costs like insurance, consumables and maintenance are all pretty affordable, too.

Who is the Toyota Yaris suitable for?

A used Toyota Yaris for sale is an excellent pick for anybody who values safety, reliability and running costs however it’s still big enough to be able to handle many family tasks.

If you like the idea of a hybrid supermini, consider self-charging hybrids like the Renault Clio and Mazda 2 Hybrid.

Is a Toyota Yaris worth buying?

Yes, a used Toyota Yaris for sale is a sensible pick. It might not be the most obvious supermini in a sea of compact hatchbacks, but it’s dependable, affordable and well-appointed.

Which Toyota Yaris model is best?

As is the case with many small hatchbacks, entry-level versions might not have all the high-tech features you’d expect from larger cars. This is fine, because even the most basic Yaris has all the essentials, but we think it’s worth scouting out the highest trim level you can afford for more features.

Which is the best engine in Toyota Yaris?

The best Toyota Yaris is the hybrid model. It’s a 1.5-litre petrol hybrid system paired with a CVT automatic gearbox – it’s set up for economy rather than performance, but it seriously delivers when it comes to fuel efficiency.

Is insurance high for the Toyota Yaris?

The fourth-generation Toyota Yaris sits in insurance groups 13-14 for the most part, which is in line with other superminis like the Ford Fiesta. In theory, insurance premiums should be fairly average.

How many miles can a Yaris go on a full tank?

The Toyota Yaris has a small 36-litre fuel tank, which means filling up at the pump can be cheaper than many family hatches.

Because it can do up to 70mpg, it’ll do more than 550 miles per tank on paper. In the real world, this is closer to 400-450 miles, which is still impressive.
