Toyota Yaris 2006 road test


The Toyota Yaris 2006 is a cool-looking supermini that builds on the success of previous models to deliver a smart, reliable car.

With a rounder and smoother looking exterior, the new Yaris manages to look bold without coming across as brash in design.

New models of the Toyota Yaris for 2006 include large bumper grilles with a snub nose. It also retains the central instrument pack known from previous editions.

Reviewers at Channel 4 commented on the Yaris' "light positive gear change and well-judged weighting for the brakes".

Gear changes are also aided by an optional Multi Mode Transmission, which allows for swifter, smoother, easier action.

The Toyota Yaris 2006 is also available in a range of different engines, starting with a 1.0-litre 67bhp petrol unit and rising to the 1.4-litre D-4D turbo-diesel.

Safety features include ABS and EBD as standard, with disc brakes for all models in the range. It also earned a healthy five-star Euro NCAP crash test rating, with three stars given for pedestrian protection.

Available with a range of new car finance deals, the Toyota Yaris 2006 is a clear choice for those looking for an affordable new supermini.
