Does the sedan and LB have a different driving feeling? - Toyota Yaris Forums

It shouldn't come as any surprise that the two drive and feel different.

Just the different wheelbase and overall length alone accomplishes the difference.

the main thing i noticed is more road noise in the hatch, but that is just the nature of the beast with all hatchbacks with the rear wheels being under an empty hull.

Two completely different models (HB=Yitz & Sedan=Belta) marketed in some countries as the same (Yaris).

I think it would've been far more sensible not to give them the same name as they did in the U.S. They're really different cars.

They were probably afraid of confusing us simpletons.
