New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews, Interior, Colors

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews, Interior, Colors  –  A large number of people have said that it had something to do with economics when they answered the first question. Compact cars have razor-thin profit margins, particularly when manufactured in nations with high wages and a strong currency like Japan. This was the problem with the final Yaris Sedan manufactured in Kariya, Japan, which was removed from the available vehicle inventory in Canada in 2025. Countries like Mexico, which has low wages and taxes and is also geographically adjacent to North America, can produce cars at a fraction of the cost of other countries.

Because the Mazda2 hatchback is no longer sold in Canada and the Mazda2 sedan is not sold there either, Toyota and Mazda have come to an agreement for the Canadian market to rebrand the Mexican-made Mazda2 sedan as the Toyota Yaris sedan and give it a makeover. The purpose of this modification is to make room for the Mazda2 hatchback.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews Redesign and Update Plan

Exterior and Interior

Anyone who has ever looked closely at a Mazda’s cabin—possible Toyota buyers, take note of the strange tablet-like screen mounted vertically in the center of the dashboard—will know it’s a Mazda. The most fundamental models have an integrated volume control, a small black-and-white screen, and buttons for other audio operations. The Yaris Premium trim levels come equipped with a seven-inch color touchscreen display, among other upgrades. This screen can be used as a touchscreen option even when the vehicle is stopped; it is controlled by a dial located in the center console.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

The base model of the Toyota Yaris Sedan includes a number of features, such as air conditioning, a voice-activated Bluetooth phone, a height-adjustable driver’s seat, a steering wheel with audio controls and cruise controls, keyless entry and pushbutton ignition, power windows, power mirrors, variable intermittent wipers, and 60/40 split folding rear seatbacks. The price for a man is $16,995, and for an auto, it’s $18,200. You wouldn’t think a car in this price bracket would have any of these features, but they’re all standard.

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Specs

Pressing the Sport button, located behind the shift lever, allows you to accelerate more quickly. Consequently, this causes the gearbox to shift with more force, which enhanced acceleration. Yet, this has the unintended consequence of making the engine louder and less fuel efficient. By manually shifting, you can move the gears by pulling the shift lever to the left, which will move it forward to shift down, and backward to shift up. With this, you may manually shift. Another name for this method is the manual shift. On the other hand, if you’re not in a rush and only drive around town or the suburbs often, you can probably get away with leaving it on Normal setting. The engine has to work hard to get up to speed on the highway, but once it does, it can relax and maintain a constant speed of 100 kilometres per hour at a speed of only 2,000 revolutions per minute.

The Yaris Sedan’s little size makes it an easy-to-park and multipurpose vehicle. Plus, it’s the ideal vehicle for zipping around town. It is difficult to see behind the vehicle due to the high rear deck and the lack of a rearview camera in the base model. Also, it’s not easy to see what’s behind the car. An extra feature that is not available on the Yaris is a blind spot warning system.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

Engine and Performance

You may start the car with the traditional push-button Start without taking the key out of your pocket, making it a convenient choice. The keyfob is a more secure alternative than the button, which is why this is the case. Put another way, you can’t just keep the keyfob on you at all times. Conversely, a volume button is standard on the Toyota Yaris base model. On the steering wheel you’ll find this button. Adjusting the volume or media settings on the main screen could be a bit of a pain at times. On the regular 6.1-inch display—a narrow screen situated at the very top of the tablet—you can see the time, the media, and the radio station. The screen also displays further options for setting up the audio and Bluetooth on the phone. Despite three tries, I was unable to successfully pair the Bluetooth telephone features included in the standard setup with my iPhone 6 Plus. The Yaris Premium trim level features a larger screen measuring 7 inches, and its control is located on a dial on the console between the seats. On top of that, this dial allows you to change the console’s audio volume. When the car is at a stop, this screen may be turned into a touchscreen, which is an extra feature.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

From the entry-level Yaris to the top-tier versions, all doors have armrests and inserts that are upholstered as standard equipment. Unfortunately, neither a middle armrest nor a storage bin are standard features on any of the models. But there are three open storage bins in the center console: one with USB, auxiliary, and 12-volt connections at the base of the stack; a narrow bin beside the hand brake lever; and a square bin accessible from the back of the console, which is great for rear passengers. The backseat passengers can reach all of these containers. Furthermore, you may find a pocket behind the front passenger seat that you can use to keep your maps.

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Fuel Economy

The 1.5-liter four-cylinder SkyActiv engine from Mazda produces 106 horsepower, and that was the engine that we tested in our vehicle. All of these features are standard on the base model. We were able to select the six-speed automatic transmission with a Sport mode and a manual shifting mode for our test vehicle. There was also a manual shifting mode on the gearbox. All Yaris Premium models come equipped with the mentioned transmission as standard equipment.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

In standard mode, the vehicle’s acceleration is somewhat sluggish off the line, and the automatic gearbox seems to be tuned to maximize fuel economy. The official fuel economy rating for the Yaris Sedan with the manual transmission is 7.6/5.7/6.7 city/highway/combined, according to the National Research Council of Canada. The relevant ratio is 7.2/5.6/6.4 when the automatic gearbox is engaged. After 2,000 kilometers on the odometer, my vehicle’s fuel efficiency indicator showed an average of 7.2 liters per hundred kilometers.

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Safety Features

The safety of children is prioritized, thus tether points and seat anchors are installed in the outboard rear seats. A three-point lap and shoulder belt with pretensioners and force limiters is standard issue for all five seats. Every single one of the back doors has a child safety lock. However, the tachometer and driver information panel controls, which are situated on either side of the wheel, aren’t exactly gigantic. Positioned centrally behind the wheel, the speedometer is easy to read. You can access crucial metrics like average speed, range, and fuel efficiency—both historical and present—by pressing the Info button on the steering wheel. The outside temperature, fuel level, and trip computer readings are all shown on a screen on the driver’s right side of the vehicle.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Price and Release Date

For $20,200, you can have the Yaris Sedan Premium with an automatic transmission, a bigger 7-inch screen, and the Commander control dial in the center console. Furthermore, alloy wheels and front fog lamps are standard on this package. A $500 deposit is required to use the navigation service.  New 2025 Toyota Yaris Sedan Reviews

The Yaris Sedan’s entry and exit procedures are not particularly onerous in comparison to those of competing small cars. A manual seat height adjuster and a tilt-and-telescopic steering wheel are standard on the driver’s seat. Drivers of varying statures can easily find a comfortable seating position thanks to this. The front and back seats have enough legroom to accommodate four passengers, while the back seats have unexpectedly spacious headroom. It is recommended that two adults sit in the back seat, even though there is no foldable middle armrest. This is due to the cabin’s relatively modest size. Whenever they are not in use, the three adjustable head restraints drop down to nearly touch the top of the back seatbacks. This is the result of their inactivity. Because of the Yaris Sedan’s elevated back seat, this greatly enhances the driver’s field of view to the rear of the vehicle.
