Instead of the TS there will be a 1,33l (101PS) SOL (highest package) with additional sport abilities available.
I don´t have pics of this package.

Here in Netherlands the TS 2009 is available

The demand of the TS wasn´t good....
And the CO2-emission to high for the people....
Most of the people say that it´s crazy, a little car with so much power and answer with shaking the head...


the 6speed manual did also have the 1,33l engine.

wow, good news to get the front parts :D

The 1.8 Liter motor and longer front end is a step away from the reasons I bought my Yaris 1.5 liter 3 door liftback. I love the short front end. Makes it easy to see around obstructions at intersections. The shortness of the 3 door Yaris makes it one of the easiest cars to park. I find the 1.5 liter motor has lots of power. I would like to have the Yaris with the 1.0 liter motor, that gets even better fuel economy than the 1.5 liter motor. I would rather get 60 mpg highway, with the 1.0 liter motor, than 35 mpg highway, with the 1.5 liter motor.

FYI the 5 door and 3 door Yaris are the same size... the 5 door is just more convenient for the passangers.
And the 1.8L dual vvt-i engine is the first of the new Toyota small engine generation.

More powerful, torquier, and as green and economical as the older 1nz-fe.

... oh and packed with a bunch of extrassss...

yeah I can see why you don't like it.

The ONLY downside i have find on the TS is the price tag....

how many liters of oil does need the TS engine?including the oil filter.because i don't have the manual.does anybody has an english pdf manual with our engine?thanks

It uses about 4.25Lts. So you need to buy 5 liters of oil.


The transmission uses about 1.75lts so you need to buy to 2 liters of oil.

We do NOT have a steering pump in case you haven't noticed... Our steering is electric not hydraulic.


There are no aftermarket brake pads to my knowledge... I've been looking for them as well. But don't worry, the OE are pretty good. Usually just getting some high performance brake fluid is enough in case you want to track / race your car.
You need 2 bottles of brake fluid for this car. I recommend Motul RBF600 or ATE Racing blue

I use Red Line MT-90 full syntech but I'm not sure if you can get that in Europe. Probably Motul should have syntech tranny oil. 75w-90
