Yaris to be featured on Top Gear USA Season Finale

[CTScott]

Ironically the Yaris was mentioned in the season premiere of Top Gear USA, and now will be a featured car in the "Monument to Moab" season finale on September 25th.

From the History Channels website:

"Do you really need an expensive 4x4 to go off road? The guys don't think so and to prove their point use three classic rental cars and attempt to complete and epic journey on some of the toughest terrain in the country from Monument Valley to Moab."

My daughters and I were watching our DVRed show from this week and they showed the teaser for the season finale. Here are some screen caps from it. Fortunately Rutledge will be the one driving the Yaris (as he seems to have an appreciation for small cars and Toyota's quality and dependability). The last two images from the teaser look a bit foreboding, but watching one of the other cars hang glide (unsuccessfully) off the same cliff, means that the Yaris probably survived that particular "challenge".
