Currently reading: Two new variants for Yaris range

Toyota has bulked up its Yaris range with the new Yaris Edition and Yaris Trend models

Toyota has added two new variants to its Toyota Yaris range – the Yaris Edition and Yaris Trend – which are priced from £11,695 and £13,795 respectively. 

The Edition model is based on the T2-spec Yaris, which comes with electric windows and mirrors as standard. The Edition model adds front foglights, 15-inch alloy wheels, chrome and leather interior trim flourishes and tinted windows.

By comparison, the Trend builds on the more highly specified Yaris SR, which in standard trim features part-leather upholstery, lower-than-standard suspension and Toyota’s Touch multimedia system. The Trend adds larger 16-inch alloys, blacked-out C-pillars and a chrome tailpipe trim.

Power for the Edition model is courtesy of Toyota's 68bhp 1.0-litre VVT unit, which is driven via a five-speed manual gearbox. The Trend variant is offered with Toyota’s 98bhp 1.33-litre VVT-i petrol engine. Available transmissions include a six-speed manual or Multidrive S CVT transmission. 

Toyota’s new Yaris variants are available in both three and five-door guises and are on sale now.

The third-gen Yaris was ahead of its time thanks to hybrid technology – but does it still appeal as a used buy?

You're completely right!

You're completely right! Looks a lot better with it for some reason

Frump Reduction

Not normally a fan of the fakey gloss pillar treatments (Roomster, Swift et al), but this instantly makes the Yaris a bit more appealling IMHO. Accentuates that rising side crease for a much nicer stance, bit Evoque-like I s'pose.

Not sure it would tempt me into a Toyota from more youthful hatches in the sector, but good effort.
