seems like a cheap mashup. im guessing they are trying to tie it closer with the matrix?

it almost has that ridiculous front fascia aggressive styling from some of the honda fit's i see.
but the versa looking hatch is killing me. :|

If I had two cents to give toyota on the next yaris hatch, I'd want the roofline to be more similar to the sedan, much flatter, lower profile: so I could fit a decent carry-all rack on top for kayaks or bags for when traveling. the roof is rather useless and I don't trust the current thule kits for it. as well i think that would improve drag and hopefully bring it closer to a prius' CD by pulling down the windshield to a more drastic angle. as well the rear pillars are simply too wide for my tastes, and seem unsafe at times.
well those things... and more power :D even like 5hp would be a vast improvement i feel

Don't forget all the people who bought echos :P

What's the difference between the 2008 and 2009 models? I think the 2009 models come standard with more safety featuers such as side air bags and ESC? Do they physically look different?

Scan of 2012 Toyota Yaris hatch, a concept version of which is expected to debut at the 2011 NAIAS in Detroit in January.

Different shaped Headlights and taillights I think. Design of the taillights are different as well. I'm sure there's probably others too.

Betrivent · 10-13-2010, 06:51 PM

Looks decent.. I wonder if they would let me trade in..

*kimona* · 10-13-2010, 07:13 PM

I think it's looking more like the Matrix... which I dislike.

Too much sculpting. Too "busy".

why? · 10-13-2010, 11:21 PM

I don't like it, our current version is better.

Oh, and hey Vitzboy, what have you been up to?

Thirty-Nine · 10-13-2010, 11:39 PM

I like.

hyprmiler · 10-13-2010, 11:52 PM

what... no sedan pictures?

hyprmiler · 10-13-2010, 11:57 PM

standard safety features, removal of the S trim option, standardization of a tachometer, and different gauges.

please correct me if I'm wrong...

djct_watt · 10-14-2010, 01:08 AM

Different front/rear bumpers. The area in the rear by the tail light is more concave to line up with the newer tail light design. The bumper will not line up with older headlights and vice versa. . . same applies to the front end.

*cough* 3rd generation of Yaris *cough*

ROCKLAND TOYOTA · 10-14-2010, 09:25 AM

still got the 4-LUG wheels

Kioshi · 10-14-2010, 09:42 AM

Bring the RS version here, and I'll trade my car in a heart beat.
I dont like the stock version, it looks too boring, a few Matrix que shapes in the front and rear near headlights/tailights and bumper....

At least no more center gauge cluster~
