2012 Road Noise.

Can any 2012 Yaris owners tell me what the road noise is like in a 2012 Yaris?

In my 07 it's really noticeable at 80km/h+

1. Are you a 2012 Yaris owner/driver?
2. How are you sure it's less?

With the 2012 that I test drove, I found the engine and road noise to be about the same as with my 09.

i drove it and -for me- while the noise from the road is less (less noise from fenders and wheels i think)the same time i think you can hear the exhaust a bit louder.

More exhaust sound. Less road noise than an 02 echo. It does t seem that loud at all. The afe intake I put on sure did make it louder with some throttle input.

Being the 2012 Yaris is my first Toyota, I was surprised how loud the engine noise is at 100k/h. It's like this drive train could use another gear. At 80k/h it is fairly quiet.

I have never owned a Yaris before but the 2012 is quieter than my 2007 Civic Hybrid.

I have a gen 3 and now own a gen3. Wind noise is about the same, interior noise is slightly less.
