Yaris Gearbox Details

[Sp3ctrE]

I drive a Yaris 1.3L VVT-i, 2006 model.
I am doing a project on my car and I need to work out the theoretical top speed and stuff, but I can't find the final drive or the gear ratios anywhere!

Can anybody help me please?

I believe that your 1.3L 2006 Yaris is French built, so it would be paired with the C551 manual transmission, which has the following ratios:

1st: 3.545
2nd: 1.913
3rd: 1.310
4th: 1.027
5th: 0.850
Final: 3.550
Reverse: 3.214

Thanks, I couldn't find the information anywhere! Could you please suggest a couple of sites that could give me some more technical information on my car?
For instance, I want to find the effective cross sectional area for the wind resistance and things like that. Magazines publish this info for higher end cars, but not for small cars.

This forum is probably one of your best resources for technical info on your car.

Here is a thread with the coefficient of drag info for the Yaris. The chart that it links to has one Yaris listed, with the sectional area, but based on the coefficient of drag it is for the Yaris sedan.

Here is one that I just found doing a quick search for the "frontal area":
