From looks to performance improvements, Yaris has a new attitude for 2015. Several updates offer a fresh perspective on the subcompact, which now shows off new European-inspired styling, a retuned suspension, firmer chassis, and a larger and quieter cabin that employs higher quality materials. While not all new, the compact has received a substantial refresh and 2015 Toyota Yaris reviews say shoppers will be satisfied with the results.
Car Connection calls the latest model more "suave," while Edmunds says it's a "value-rich choice" among subcompacts. And if you believe that variety is the spice of life, you'll be pleased to find that Yaris comes in many flavors. It's the only car in its segment that offers three- and five-door hatchback configurations, and it's available in several trim levels, including the L, LE and five-door SE.
For 2015, the hatchback features a more aerodynamic design and new horizontal chrome grille, which gives a sportier presence to the car's front fascia. On the interior, it benefits from improved materials, 25 percent more sound insulation and more cabin space. Also, the cockpit includes a stylish new dashboard composed of soft-touch materials and integrated with premium features like a 6.1-inch touch screen, iPod/USB interface and Bluetooth phone/audio.
When you test drive the 2015 Toyota Yaris in Phoenix, you'll notice an improvement in driving dynamics, which is courtesy of its recent suspension and chassis updates. Softer shocks and springs and a more rigged rear torsion-beam, along with 36 added welding points on the chassis, provide a smoother ride. The car's electric power steering system also boosts performance, offering nimble handling and stability through turns.
Additionally, we couldn't have a discussion about the 2015 Toyota Yaris in Phoenix without mentioning fuel efficiency, so here it is: With a 1.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine and your choice of a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission, Yaris will get up to 30 mpg city/37-38 mpg highway.
