'15 Yaris test drive by MPG-O-MATIC - Toyota Yaris Forums

3rdSEman · 08-08-2015, 06:25 PM

I am also curious as to changes made. I feel the existing combination of Yaris clutch + drive by wire throttle is sort of a miss for Toyota.

For two years, I kept finding a girlfriend of mine shifted hers in an unskilled manner : \ until I got one myself and realized this thing was engineered funny : (

I pretty much 100% city-drive and like you am not an automatic sort of person. Assuming nothing is changed, you'll simply get to live with it as you seem to otherwise appreciate the specs/format of this car... hey nothing is perfect these days.

Over the past month while you hesitated over auto vs. manual... I kept thinking of my own experience once: returning an automatic 2001 Saturn SC2 for an identical car except manual under a GM 30-days "no question asked" return plan. I simply could not stand the behavior of the car.
