I have the manual transmission. The Yaris gets up hill just fine, just not very fast. There is no way around it, that's just the way it is, I think.

If you have a lot of hills, you probably did the right thing getting an auto. The manual is a bit tricky on a Yaris, possibly not the greatest car to learn on. At times, in San Francisco, I wish I had an auto.
