Vehicle Overview
What it is: The Yaris hatchback serves as an entry-level model for Toyota and is available in two- and four-door body styles. Toyota has discontinued its Scion brand and rebadged the Scion iA sedan as the Yaris iA, which is covered separately in the Cars.com Research section.
All models use a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine and are available with a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The front-drive Yaris hatchback competes in a busy field of small cars that includes the Ford Fiesta, Hyundai Accent and Chevrolet Sonic.
