2019 Toyota Yaris Sedan
Yaris sedan packs in a lot of refinement for not a lot of cash

Last week, someone on Instagram mentioned that the Mazda 2 is part of the "Toyota tech share". Not exactly sure what that means. Have been meaning to look into it.

But, the Mazda 2 is actually a very very good car, so it's not all bad!

That Toyota front end design is hideous! Pity. The Mazda 2 front end is actually quite handsome.

One good thing about Toyota's Mazda 2 is a 6-speed automatic transmission rather than Toyota's miserable CVT.

The upcoming 2020 Yaris/iA/Mazda2 hatchback version pulls off the look a bit better (in XLE trim at least). Something about the sedan version just doesn't all mesh together well for some reason, and looks really weird from quite a few angles. Shame that they both use a straight-GDI engine design though. Oh, well.

I do wonder if one could swap over the 2's bumpers, quarterpanels and headlights...

I may have to get the new 2020 hatchback. I used to have a 2010 Yaris 5 speed I purchased new....the clutch constantly needed replaced so I traded it in. I've had a 2017 Yaris iA for 2 years - in fact 2 years ago today July 4th I bought a pulse red Yaris iA automatic. I couldn't be happier. I get 42 mpg in city driving, it's fun to drive, handles like a dream and it has never been in for any issues. Just oil changes and I did have to buy a new tire that was not repairable.

I like the fact that Mazda isn't using low-lifespan, random reliability push-belt CVT's like everyone else seems to be doing now to cut costs & increase profits, but the iA forums are rife with premature failures (among other things) of the Mazda 6-Spd automatic transmission. I like the look of the 2020 Yaris (Mazda2) hatch but those documented quality problems combined with a straight GDI engine design makes it a gamble prospect at best in terms of durability/reliably. So, if I decide to buy an automatic on my next car, I will likely track down an authentic Toyota designed/built 2018 Yaris SE hatch. If I stick with manuals, then it will still be something without a flawed, consumer-unfriendly straight GDI engine design.

Toyota owns part of Mazda, big deal. Carmakers are teaming up on low profit product segments. Toyota and Mazda are working on a 6 cyl performance motor, too.
2019 Yaris was listed as a "Top 10" by Consumer Reports, btw. https://www.aarp.org/auto/car-buying...best-cars.html "The iA forums are rife with premature failures.." Where? Went to https://www.scioniaforum.com/forum/9...cussion-forum/. Don't see any "rife" complaints. BTW: There are not too many 2018 Yaris hatches for sale, since sales cratered for them. Toyota had to pull the plug 2020 Yaris will get Apple and Android's car programs. Last edited by 2008RedHatch; 07-07-2019 at 05:40 PM. |
