The 2011 Toyota Yaris Hatchback packs European styling, substance and attitude into the subcompact hatchback that’s big on value

 
(TORONTO) – New class leading safety features highlight the 2011 Toyota Yaris Hatchback line-up, injecting even more value into the subcompact that packs style, versatility and Euro-tuned performance into an amazingly efficient package.
 
“The Toyota Yaris Hatchback is fun and nimble – perfect for negotiating the streets of Canada’s urban centres – yet comfortable for long distances too,” said Warren Orton, Director at Toyota Canada Inc. “Whether it’s a three-door or five-door edition, the Yaris Hatchback has room for five plus the cargo-carrying flexibility of a hatchback. Add in class-leading safety features, fuel efficiency, styling and features not commonly found in the subcompact segment, and the Yaris Hatchback is the small car that’s big on value.”
 
Safety
Every Yaris Hatchback is fitted with a suite of active and passive safety systems designed to help prevent accidents, and to protect driver and passengers if an incident occurs:
  • New for 2011, standard Anti Lock Braking System with Vehicle Stability Control and Traction Control System;
  • Six airbags (dual-stage driver and front passenger air bags, front seat mounted side airbags, side curtain airbags);
  • All-position three point lap and shoulder belts, pretensioners and force limiters for the front seatbelts;
  • Anchor points for child-restraint seats and – on five-door models – child protector rear door locks.
Power and performance
Take to the streets with confidence, thanks to a powerful yet efficient 1.5L 4-cylinder engine that produces up to 106 horsepower and a peak torque of 103 lb-ft, coupled to front wheel drive and a choice of transmission: a five-speed manual or four-speed super ECT automatic with overdrive.
 
The engine’s lightweight aluminum alloy block, variable valve timing with intelligence and sequential multi-port electronic fuel injection combine to maximize performance while minimizing weight and fuel consumption. With exceptional combined fuel efficiency of just 6.3L/100 KM (manual transmission) and a Tier 2 Bin 5 emissions rating, the Yaris minimizes its environmental impact while maximizing its driving fun.
