The Toyota Yaris went on sale in Europe in early 1999. The Toyota Yaris was named European Car of the Year in 2000, defeating the innovative Fiat Multipla. The interior of the Yaris uses digital ones instead of traditional analog instruments, which were installed in the central part of the panel. In Europe, the Yaris was initially produced with 4-cylinder 1.0 L or 1.3 L engines with Toyota VVT-i technology, as well as the most powerful 1.5 L T-Sport since 2001. Following the 2003 upgrade, a 1.4 L D4-D diesel engine with 75 hp (56 kW) was also offered. This diesel engine is borrowed from BMW, which is also used by the MINI One D. The Yaris is a small, city car relevant to today’s city dweller.
excellent engines, reliability, good suspension (not too hard and not too soft), good assembly quality, practicality, economical engines, a lot of space in the cabin
lambda probe failures, gearbox switching problems, distribution system defects in older machines. cheap plastic, poor seats
Car description
first of all, what can i say about this machine is reliability. the machine is extremely popular and popular. externally the small machine has a spacious cabin, sliding rear seats, etc. pluses. first of all, what can be said is good anti-corrosion protection (the body itself does not rust, something that the Japanese failed to protect before). when getting into a car, the impression is that you are sitting in a higher-class car, and even the back space can be enough for someone who is not tall or short-legged. the machine has a very reliable and durable suspension (although the manufacturer did not invent the bike and used good materials, time-tested items). the machine delights with its cheap operation, convenient devices, fantastic ergonomics, smooth operation of units, reliable electronics. there are a lot of hiding places in the car. though his work is impeccable. there could be less of that stinking Japanese raw material, plastics.
Performance
the engines do not deserve any criticism at all, because, unlike European manufacturers, they are very dynamic and economical (this is something that all Germans, etc. need to learn). Manufacturers have installed gasoline engines with a distribution phase control system in this Yaris. they all have 16v, rarely fail, Their disadvantage is the urge to leak or swallow oil and sometimes the distribution system itself fails, but the reliability of the engine is assessed to the maximum.1.0 liter engine has 50 kw and is very dynamic, although not suitable for the countryside, but in the city - ideal. I recommend a 1.3l motor - it has 63 kw and is very dynamic, swallows only 0.5 l more than a liter. diesel has a common rail injection system, has a 1.4 l volume (D-ID) (55kw), but is very rare in our market. true, picky about fuel quality.
Reliability, running costs
parts are already cheaper. the clutch is available for 400lt, everything else is inexpensive. the engines themselves may be more difficult to handle, but there are no problems. the machine depreciates little.
Recommendations to buyers
check the engine and lambda probe well, as the machine may swallow or drain oil, which can lead to unpleasant fuel consumption. you have carefully inspected and responsibly maintained your diesels - although they are considered reliable, they sometimes fail to withstand the injection system and turbines (mostly due to poor fuel). petrol machines for the quality of lepok oil, because the engines are very modern and innovative even today. in the salon check whether the plastic has broken and evaluate the overall picture, otherwise you will like the machine
