Warming up

Is it necessary to warm up my Yaris after starting it up, or can I just start it up and go without warming it up?
Thanks.

In the winter (or below freezing) I will let it warm up for maybe a minute.
Otherwise I wait about ten seconds before I take off. Note: I have used
Mobil 1 Full Syn 5w30 since 16k when I bought my 09 sedan. I got 99k
Miles and a problem not one! Ha!

Warming up

30 seconds is all you need before you go. Driving warms up the car faster=better protection.

Or.. You can heat it until you have a 74f cabin before you leave.... My accountant does that..
