New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions, Interior, Price

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions, Interior, Price   –   Even though Toyota’s most recent partnership with another firm isn’t quite as exciting, it’s still big for the reputation of the brand. All of the new 2020 Yaris subcompact hatchback’s structural elements are based on parts made by Mazda and used in other markets’ subcompact offerings.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

Only at Toyota dealerships in Quebec can you get your hands on the brand new Yaris hatchback, even if the subcompact class is losing ground across much of Canada. The provincial government’s bias toward smaller, more economical cars is evident in this restriction.

Exterior and Interior

The Yaris’s infotainment system is designed to be user-friendly, with a console dial that allows control of the dashboard display. Because it doesn’t take the driver’s focus off the road as much as touch-based setups, it’s easier to use. Three knobs and four electronic buttons make up the manual air conditioning controls on my top-of-the-line Toyota Yaris XLE test vehicle. My one gripe with the Yaris was that, unlike its rivals, it lacked an automated temperature adjustment feature. However, heated front seats and a heated steering wheel are included on the XLE trim level of the Yaris.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

Impressively, according to Toyota’s measurements, the Yaris offers greater interior space than the Corolla hatchback, despite its diminutive exterior dimensions. However, the Yaris appears to be a fantastic choice for long-distance travel, even though the front seats are quite narrow—which is common for little cars. There are three seatbelts in the rear, but you should still limit passengers to no more than two adults because of safety concerns.

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Specs

Since Mazda was the initial manufacturer of the Yaris, you can be sure that it has some of the most composed and assured handling of any vehicle in the sub-$20,000 price bracket. Like the Mazda3, the Yaris hatchback offers a comfortable ride, but more road noise may be heard inside. Putting this little car through some rapid turns was something I really enjoyed. The first reason is that the chassis can easily handle it, and the second is that it prevented me from having to wait for the car to regain speed after the bend.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

Engine and Performance

While I get that this isn’t exactly a fair criticism of a budget vehicle, the Yaris hatchback does have some issues with its acceleration. Power and torque output by the 1.5-liter engine made by Mazda are identical to those of the previous generation Yaris (106 hp and 103 pound-feet, respectively). On the other hand, a 200-rpm reduction in rev band speed results in the maximum torque.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

It appears like acceleration from a standstill is happening normally, as the little motor leisurely buzzes through the first three gear ratios of the transmission. Contrarily, the Toyota Yaris loses power rapidly when traveling at highway speeds; it is not a vehicle that should be used for daring passing maneuvers on two-lane highways.

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Fuel Economy

The average fuel usage of my Yaris hatchback for a week of city driving was 7.3 gallons per hundred kilometers, which was in line with the city rating given by Natural Resources Canada. Its estimated fuel consumption on the highway is 5.9 liters per hundred kilometers.

These outcomes are a substantial improvement over the prior version of the Yaris hatchback, which had worse fuel economy because of its very low-tech engine and dated four-speed transmission. Incorporating Mazda’s SkyActiv suite of fuel-saving technologies and design components, this new car’s engine was developed.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Safety Features

The 2017 Yaris, Toyota’s entry-level vehicle, is now equipped with a low-speed forward collision detection and avoidance system instead of the full Safety Sense suite. I think a lot of people will love the Yaris, especially anxious or inexperienced drivers, but it’s a step backwards because the previous model lacked automatic high lights and lane departure warning.

We can infer that Toyota opted not to incorporate Mazda’s more advanced safety features in the Yaris in an effort to keep pricing reasonable because Mazda offers these features on the Mazda2 in other countries.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Price and Release Date

The Yaris exemplifies Toyota’s efforts to lower the price of their cars while increasing the amount of features they provide. My XLE test vehicle was priced at $19,450, with the base grade hatchback going for $16,790 and an automatic transmission adding $1,200. Usually, South Korean manufacturers Hyundai and Kia come out on top when it comes to value. But, the mid-range Hyundai Accent Preferred doesn’t offer much more than the Toyota Yaris XLE does for the same price. Actually, heated steering wheel is an extra feature that can only be had on the $21,649 Ultimate trim level—which also comes with passive keyless entry and LED headlights.

You can get about the same amenities in the Kia Rio LX+ for a couple hundred dollars less, but if you want more stuff, you’ll end up spending over twenty grand again. While both the Yaris XLE and the Honda Fit have similar features, the Yaris XLE is around $1,000 cheaper. On the other hand, the $21,090 LX-Honda Sensing grade includes advanced driver aid systems that are not available on the Yaris XLE.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Hatchback Dimensions

When choosing a vehicle, two options to consider are the Chevrolet Spark and the Mitsubishi Mirage, both of which offer good transportation value. However, even if they provide less refinement overall, those two models nonetheless manage to be a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Yaris.
