When you need to maneuver in and out of traffic or cut tight corners, you want a car that is small enough to handle the job. That is precisely the situation that makes a subcompact car an ideal choice. For 2020, Toyota offers the Yaris to the subcompact car market. The Yaris is available as either a sedan or a hatchback.

Performance

The 2020 Yaris features a 1.5 liter direct- injection engine. The engine can be paired with either a 6-speed automatic transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission. A Sport mode is available with the automatic transmission. Opting for this feature allows you to experience a sportier drive by flipping a switch. The combination of a Macpherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension lends agility to the handling of the Yaris.

Technology

Technology is a large part of daily life. Toyota recognizes that and incorporates technology into their cars. Each Yaris comes equipped with a 7 inch multi-media touchscreen infotainment system. With this system, you can control your audio and use handsfree technologies for accessing your phone. The Yaris has both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities. If you prefer, you can control the system with a knob between the front seats rather than utilize the touchscreen. Also, there are audio controls located right on the steering wheel, so the driver can easily adjust the volume or change the music of the Sirius XM radio without looking away from the road. The LE and XLE trims offer a Smart Key system that includes push button start as well as the ability to lock and unlock the doors with a simple touch even when your keyfob is in your pocket or purse. Two USB ports serve the dual purpose of charging your device and allowing you to access your music. You can also utilize Bluetooth technology for streaming music to your audio system.

Safety

The Yaris offers safety and driver assist features to help keep you safe and alert on the road. One safety feature is a low-speed pre-collision system that alerts the driver to the possibility of a collision. This system works with brake assist technology to help mitigate or even avoid the potential collision. Toyota equips every Yaris with an Active Safety System that includes features such as Dynamic Stability Control, Electronic Brake-Force Distribution, a Traction Control System, Brake Assist, an Anti-lock Brake System and a Brake Override System. For safety in wet weather, the Yaris features rain sensing windshield wipers that match the speed of the windshield wipers to the amount of rain in relation to the speed of the car. Simply set the wipers to auto and let them do the work.
