Toyota Yaris India Launch Highlights: Deliveries Have Officially Started
The Toyota Yaris is the first C-segment sedan from the Japanese brand and fits between the Etios and the Corolla. The India-spec Yaris was first unveiled at Auto Expo 2018, held in February. The Yaris is one of the most feature-rich sedans in the segment.
Bookings of the Yaris have already started. You can book the new Yaris for an amount of Rs 50,000. Prices of the Yaris have already been announced and are given below:
| Variant | MT | CVT |

The Toyota Yaris comes only in a petrol format. It is powered by a 1.5-litre Dual VVT-i engine that makes 108bhp and 140Nm. It comes mated to a 6-speed or a 7-step CVT. The CVT option is available across all variants.
As mentioned earlier, the Toyota Yaris is a fully-loaded saloon. It comes with a lot of safety, comfort and convenience features; some of which are even segment-first offerings. Here are some of them:
- Seven airbags as standard
- Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
- Front & rear parking sensors
- Disc brakes on all four wheels
- 7-inch touchscreen infotainment with gesture controls

Live Updates
The Event Will Commence Soon
We have reached the venue while Toyota is gearing up for the launch.
In the meantime, did you know that the Yaris comes with a rather unusual roof-mounted rear AC vents?
Offered Only In A Petrol Variant
The Toyota Yaris uses the same engine as in the Etios. However, the Toyota Etios lacks the Dual VVT-i system.
The Dual VVT-i system controls the intake and exhaust valves individually. This helps in giving better response and fuel efficiency.
The stage is set and the car is still under the cover.
'All Sense; All Sedan'
Toyota refers the Yaris as 'All Sense; All Sedan'. Do you agree with it?
The First Car In The Segment To Get Gesture Controls
The 7-inch touchscreen infotainment in the Yaris gets gesture controls. You can change the track, increase the volume or listen to the next radio station by swiping your palm in front of the system.
CVT Across All Variants
The Toyota Yaris is the only car in its segment to offer a CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) option across all variants. The unit in question is a 7-step CVT and comes with paddle shifts.
1000 Deliveries To Happen Today
Toyota India will be doing over 1000 deliveries of the new Yaris, on the day of its launch.
Huge Demand And Anticipation
Toyota India claims that they've received over 60,000 customer enquiries for the Yaris.
Host Of Accessories
If you are really into chrome, then the Toyota Yaris can be opted with an abundance of it.
No Compromise In Safety
The Toyota Yaris is the first car in its segment to offer 7 airbags as standard.
Decent Mileage Figures
The Toyota Yaris has a claimed mileage of 17.1km/l for the manual and 17.8km/l for the CVT variant.
The Event Has Started
Toyota officials have started addressing the gathering, letting everyone know the achievements and future plans of the brand for the country.
Global Design Language
The Toyota Yaris follows the brand's global design language. The design has invited mixed opinions and we think the car looks a bit odd.
The Toned-Down Yaris Ativ
The Toyota Yaris we will be getting is a toned-down version of its international sibling, the Yaris Ativ. The India-spec Yaris rides on smaller wheels, but with higher ground clearance.
The Global Sedan
The Toyota Yaris is sold across 120 countries; India being the latest.
Lot Of Segment-First Features
As mentioned before, the Yaris gets a lot of segment-first features along with advanced technology.
Available Only In A Petrol Format
While the Yaris gets a 1.5-litre petrol engine with decent performance and fuel efficiency, the addition of a diesel unit is always welcome.
More On The Yaris's Styling
The interiors of the Yaris looks good, with nice fit and finish. It follows a conventional design format and is rather subtle compared to the exterior.
And Here It Is!
Toyota has officially launched the new Yaris in India. Prices were already announced and start from Rs 8.75 lakh and extend up to Rs 14.07 lakh. The prices are same across India.
You can book the Yaris at your nearest Toyota dealership for an amount of Rs 50,000.
