After a series of exciting model launches, leading mobility company Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) wrapped up 2020 with the introduction of the 2021 update to its popular hatchback – the Toyota Yaris.

“It’s been a jam-packed year for Toyota this 2020,” described Elijah Marcial, Vice President of Marketing Services at TMP. “But we’ve got one last exciting model this year that we’re sure many Filipinos will enjoy.”

“The Yaris appeals to many married professionals in their mid to late 30s looking for a modern fun-to-drive vehicle that offers the great cargo space a hatchback offers,” Marcial said, describing the Yaris customer.

“The Yaris nameplate has amassed quite a loyal fan base for being synonymous with fun driving and flashy looks, and this year we’ve elevated it with a new premium eye-catching design to suit our customers’ evolving style. All without, of course, compromising on the power, convenience, and safety we’ve all come to expect from every Toyota,” she added.

The new Toyota Yaris sports an aggressive redesigned front grille that gives it a commanding and wide stance, flanked by new LED fog lamps across all variants. On the 1.5 S CVT variant, the head lamps have been upgraded to LED and are now paired with new Daytime Running Lights (DRL). It also sports new kicks with its newly-designed 15-inch two-tone machine-finish alloy wheels across all variants. The updates extend up to the interiors with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto now a standard feature across all variants, and synthetic leather seats for the 1.5 S CVT variant.

The new Yaris also comes in a vibrant new color across all variants to match its customers’ colorful personalities. Appropriately called “Cyan Metallic”, this bright blue shade is sure to appeal to young and young-at-heart customers alike. Starting at a price of Php 973,000, the new Yaris combines fun design, premium comfort, and uncompromised convenience in a compelling package for today’s stylish generation.

Premium and Fun Design

Appealing to both loyal fans of the hatchback form factor and the casual customer looking for a versatile and fun vehicle, the new Yaris is sure to excite with its fun design matched with premium sensibility. With its sporty, mesh-type front grille and wide-winged headlamps, the new Yaris makes a lasting first impression. Expressive character lines stretch across the side of this quirky hatchback before meeting at the rear. Glossy piano black accents contrast with the body paint color and chrome finishes on the door handles, adding to the visual interest and sporty feel. Cars behind the new Yaris 1.5 S CVT variant are in for a visual treat with LED line guides outlining its rear combination lamps. Finally, the sporty rear spoiler completes its edgy look.

The new Yaris comes in an electrifying new “Cyan Metallic” color as well as other vibrant colors such as “Citrus Mica Metallic” and “Red Mica Metallic”. For something more classic, customers can also rock the new Yaris in “Super White II”.

Beauty with Just as Much Brawn

Underneath that stylish facade is a capable and efficient 1.5L Dual VVT-i engine for the S CVT variant, and a 1.3L Dual VVT-i engine for the E CVT variant. Drivers can enjoy seamless and uncomplicated driving with its Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). Feel in control with paddle shifters conveniently placed behind the steering wheel of the 1.5 S CVT variant, which are especially helpful when overtaking. This variant also offers Eco and Sport Drive Modes so drivers can further customize their drives.

Convenience at your Fingertips

The new Yaris greets passengers with its spacious 5-seater cabin and large cargo space. With Apple CarPlay and Android Auto now standard across all variants, connecting and controlling your smartphone media has never been easier. Adjust it all without ever taking your hands off the steering wheel with the Yaris’s cleverly thought-out media control buttons. Customers who opt for the 1.5 S CVT variant won’t have to scramble for their keys with its convenient Smart Entry and Push Start System. This variant also comes in new synthetic leather seats and boasts an immersive 6-speaker system so everyone can enjoy their favorite music and podcasts!

Safety at Every Turn

Toyota’s got your back, front, and all sides covered with its class-leading 7 SRS airbags equipped as standard on all Yaris variants. Even in sticky situations, the new Yaris minimizes risks with its Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) which helps prevent side skids and assists in stabilizing the car when abruptly turning on a tight curve. Ain’t no mountain high enough for the Yaris with its Hill-Start Assist so you can safely advance uphill from a full stop with ease. The 1.5 S CVT variant also comes with automated safety features like Speed-Sensing Door Locks, so everyone inside is safe once the vehicle speed up.

Pricing

Customers may begin reserving the new Yaris by contacting their local Toyota dealerships starting December 19, 2020. Retail sales in all of TMP’s 70 dealerships across the country will start January 13, 2021. Customers may also check out the Yaris’ full specs and product highlights, plus calculate payments, and submit inquiries direct to any preferred dealer via https://toyota.com.ph/yaris.
