The new Toyota Yaris is now available in Malta. In designing the new Yaris, Toyota has produced a look that is bolder, sharper and more dynamic, while remaining true to the principle of “compact outside, spacious inside” that has characterised the car since the original model broke cover in 1999.

Since its launch in 1999 Yaris has set the pace in the B-segment, a uniquely efficient package and superior driving dynamics in a compact car helped her won the hearts of thousands of motorists in Malta and worldwide.

In 2005, the second generation model built further on its reputation for excellence. Now the all new Yaris is set to meet the demands of the marketplace through a stylish and quality interior which is roomier, improved economy and an outstanding multimedia system which includes internet connectivity, Bluetooth and parking camera and satellite navigation system – Toyota Touch and Toyota Go.

The new Yaris is just 100mm longer than the previous model, which means it keeps its urban-friendly tight turning circle of just 4.7m. The width is unchanged, but trimming the height by 20mm to 1,510mm adds to the car’s lower, more purposeful appearance, while the efficient aerodynamic qualities of the body deliver a class leading drag coefficient of Cd 0.287.

The front seats are new, with increased vertical adjustment and, on some models, an arm rest for the driver. Their design gives both better body holding and comfort, with wider, higher sided cushions that have a raised front edge which can help combat tiredness on long journeys.

The new Yaris offers top class safety, such as seven SRS airbags fitted as standard, including driver and front passenger airbags, side airbags, a driver’s knee airbag as well as curtain shield airbags. In addition one also gets Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), ABS with Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD) all working together to maximise braking effectiveness and all are standard on all grades.
