@ravelo do your home work, yaris does not compete with the cars you mentioned.. Corolla does
Daywiz
Then in that case…I would say Rio looks good 😛
king
From avalon to camry to corolla to yaris all look same so how come we don’t compare yaris? ahm ahm…
shibu
add cruise control gives more power
Saim
@Ravelo You can compete Hyundai Accent not Elantra and Instead of KIA Cerato u should compete KIA Rio/Picanto.

Better than before, the pricing is spot-on.
Will take a straight swipe off the sales of Sentra & the korean brigade.
Toyota took a very long cycle of 7 years for update of their bread & butter model.
Anyways The reliable sales champ is back! & now good looking as well.
cruiser
bread and butter model….thats corolla and land cruiser…never a yaris
Mufaddal
I have never seen firms buying Land cruisers for their sales department with exception of some industries where it is essential.
Corolla in its 1.6 guise is of course a fav with sales departments.

Oh please! The Korean brands come with better engines, better styling, better options, features like bluetooth, keyless entry are standard! Go premium and you get all the goodies. Go to UScar rankings and you will see that the yaris ranks at 33 where the Korean brands rank much higher, fir example the accent ranks at 13.
Manual windows for 2014? Give me a break!!
torqy
Why cant I see any photos?
torqy
This came out of no where.. I thought new corolla was coming first?
Ravelo
May not be in the same category but the pricing is quite same….and i agree kia rio still looks better than yaris
Jumayaqoob
Looks awesome , resale awesome ,interior has a premium , price wise it’s excellent , my dad has planned to buy the top end yaris which is for 57900dhs with 1.5L never the less Yaris is the best because it’s a Toyota although the market will be for the Se 1.3L which is also good 😀
Who will buy it please comment 😉
Prado
actually it looks lame and smells funny too ….
I rather wait for the Turkish made corolla and then compare… thai-made cars have weird plastic smell to them
torqy
Hi, just saw the top trim yaris in Kuwait, its costs more than top trim corolla!! Only a fool would buy one…it looks smart though…
torqy
Better get the top trim 1.8 tiida, or corolla , cheaper and powerful
sam
top trim 1.8 tiida is much better
Marouf Hussain
1.8 Tiida starting price is Dhs 69000. Definitely not cheaper.
Marwan
Manual windows in 2013? where are these guys living? there are tons of better cars with better value..soon the resale value myth will be over !!
vivek
pricing finally seems realistic and competitive enough.
Ahsan Ashfaq

Sri Krishna

This is a great car, I just test drove one a week back and loved it. IT doesnt feel cheap and numb on the inside as most entry lever Toyotas make you feel. Its a very solid, refined and dare I say fun to drive car. The KIA’s and Hyundai’s might offer all the gadgets and gizmos but there reliability and quality is still sub par compared to Toyota. Korean cars are not that good in the long run. This car will still last even after 5 years of ownership if you plan on keeping it. Whereas the korean cars will barely run for 4-5 years max and requiring you to do a lot more maintenance and resale is nothing for korean cars.
jhun
yaris is good but the only problem is body is very weak or g.i sheet soft..
