LB and sedan

[Maitre_Te_Te]

Hello. I work for Toyota and I have seen zero difference between Yaris sedan and Yaris LB(HB) for the engine. Last week, a member from another forum say the engine is not exacly the same. Do you have seen any diffrence beacause my opinion is this member have not reason.

I believe the concensus on this forum would be that the powertrains are identical. Things look slightly different when you look under the hood only because of the physical differences in the body shape.

only difference is the length of the exhaust...

The platform and drivetrain are the same, otherwsie these two cars share very little in common... as they were designed in different countries by quite separate entities of Toyota. In Japan, the sedan (Belta) is sold in Toyota stores, while the HB (Vitz) is marketed by Toyota's Netz division.
