Is the Yaris mostly for Urban Transportation?

It's a stop-n-go city car for sure. And at only around 100 WHP, the shorter gears fit it well (although IMO it would get better gas mileage on the hwy with slightly taller final gear). If it was meant for long trips, they would've made it bigger, roomier, and even MORE comfortable to ride in. Think of RVs and tour buses.

Exactly

It's mostly a city car, and I drive 95% city and that's why I love this car and would buy it again.

But on the other hand the other 5% of driving I do on the highway at high speeds, the manual transmission isn't appropriate because it spins way too fast, which boils down to wear and tear.

But I would buy this car again since I do mostly city driving.

Sorry guys for being honest.
