The reason is likely in the tank's shape & design. My Camaro and my wife's Trans Am are both the same way. When the gas gauge reads 3/4 tank, it's really @ 1/2 tank, and once it reaches that mark, it drops quicker and quicker. When it's at 1/4 tank, you're pretty close to Empty, closer to 1/8 tank. I'm sure the Yaris is the same way. I've noticed this as well with my Yaris, and I'm sure if i asked my wife, she'd tell me her Yaris was the same way (yes, we have two Yarises. They're our "daily drivers" and the Camaro & T/A are our "weekend toys"...)
