Most of the reason is low power and high gearing, but I've always suspected there is some sort of restrictor somewhere in the clutch line or master cylinder. (I know some S2000's had this.) It makes the clutch engagement a little less harsh and makes life a little easier for the transmission. It would explain the slightly odd feel to the Yaris clutch. In any case, since I'm not trying to bang gears, spin tires, and break my transmission, it doesn't really bother me. I have other vehicles for that.
