Same engine as mine, but the red one has lower spec and 2 extra doors.
As for MPG on a 1-litre, check my sig. |

i think the 1.0L lacks power on the yaris.
or is it that you drive mainly in the city (stop and go traffic)? |

I'd be fine with a 1L engine in a Yaris. The 1.5L has oodles and gobs of extra power.
Heck, I drove my Dad's 1983 Diesel Chevette for several years. A 1L Yaris would run rings around it. |

Mine's supposed to get 36,7 MPG (US) city, so I'm not that far off the mark (I drive 99% city).
And as for lack of power- this engine's all about economy and I don't have any illusions regarding that. However, it has all the power needed to keep up with traffic. All in all, a good result for something that has the engine resembling this set-up- That's 3 cans with a total of 1 litre :) |
