2012 Yaris Discussion - Toyota Yaris Forums

Quick comments. . . I'm not a fan of the new dash. . . but the non-centered dash will shut up a lot of critics. . . IMO, I love the center instrument panel.

I also hate how the window controls are flat and completely horizontal. The current hatch design that swoops up allows wider knee room, but with that panel in the way, it definitely narrows leg room. It looks like they also removed the fifty billion glove box/cubby design. . . a shame since I use every pocket and storage area. Also looks like the dash cupholders are gone too. Missing as well are the vertically stacked HVAC controls, a very cool design IMO in the hatch. It has a minivan style dash protrusion, which is a common trend in new cars and something I absolutely LOATHE.
