Any guess as to what the MPGs must be on this guy?

Same engine as mine, but the red one has lower spec and 2 extra doors.

As for MPG on a 1-litre, check my sig.

[IllusionX]

i think the 1.0L lacks power on the yaris.

or is it that you drive mainly in the city (stop and go traffic)?

[Yaris Hilton]

I'd be fine with a 1L engine in a Yaris. The 1.5L has oodles and gobs of extra power.

Heck, I drove my Dad's 1983 Diesel Chevette for several years. A 1L Yaris would run rings around it.

it's supposed to be 44mpg/city.

I get 39mpg city driving in my 1.3L HB 1st gen.

yours should get more, a friend just imported a vitz from Japan, 1.0L and gets around 44 too.

his car is fucking beatuful

It needs the stop lights changed, and lowering springs.

i never expected to see a yaris with so much space in the engine bay :P

[BluYrs]

Mine's supposed to get 36,7 MPG (US) city, so I'm not that far off the mark (I drive 99% city).

And as for lack of power- this engine's all about economy and I don't have any illusions regarding that. However, it has all the power needed to keep up with traffic. All in all, a good result for something that has the engine resembling this set-up-
