The Yaris is not about speed,its just a peppy small car that is incredibly fun to drive.

A manual will always be quicker then an auto.

Reliability,simplicity,fuel economy and fun to drive is the yaris in a nutshell.

I dont know the speed specs and dont really care what they are.

You can make a yaris quite quick with mods.
