Toyota will release a new Yaris iA soon. Are you excited? If you are a fan of this lineup, you came to the right place. Here, we will give you our 2019 Toyota Yaris iA review. We will tell you about its redesign, engine, release date, and price. Before that, let’s get to know about it first.
End of the Lineup?
Yes. After this, there will be no Toyota Yaris iA anymore. In fact, Toyota introduces the upcoming new Yaris iA as Yaris Sedan. So yes, technically the Yaris iA lineup ended with its two model year. That being said, we will still call the upcoming Yaris Sedan as Yaris iA to make things easier.
Redesign
Let’s start our Toyota Yaris iA review with redesign first. The new Yaris iA will have a refreshed look. For instance, it will have a new grille with honeycomb shape, LED headlights as well as minor changes in its mug. For the interior, it will come with
standard features such as a 7-inch infotainment system, keyless entry, automated emergency braking as well as Bluetooth connectivity.
Also important to note, the new Yaris iA, unlike its predecessors, embrace trim levels. Indeed, it will be available in three trim levels, which we will give you the details below.
Trim Levels
The upcoming Yaris iA will be available in three trim levels. The first is the L trim. This will be entry-level trim. It will have standard features such as a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, cruise control, power mirrors, power windows, automated front emergency braking and a split folding rear seat.
The second is the LE trim. This trim will have all the features the L trim has as well as other features such as a proximity key (push-button start included), fog lights, heated exterior mirrors (integrated turn signals included) and a trunk spoiler.
The top trim is the XLE trim. This trim will have the features that the LE trim has, with additional features such as LED headlights, steering wheel wrapped in leather, trimmed seats wrapped in faux-leather, automatic climate control, rain-sensing wipers, parking-brake handle and shift level.
Engine
The new Yaris iA is going to use the same engine as its predecessor: a 1.5-liter, inline-four. This engine will be used for all three trim levels. It can generate up to 106 horsepower and will be paired with either a six-speed manual (standard) or a six-speed automatic transmission (optional).
Release Date and Price
The exact release date and price of the 2019 Yaris iA have yet to be announced. That being said, the new Yaris iA is scheduled to enter the market this fall. As for the price, the starting price of the base model will be around $17,000.
That is our Toyota Yaris iA review. So far, the upcoming car is good. It is going to come with a refreshed redesign in its exterior and interior and a capable engine. It will also be available in several trim levels as well. What do you think? If you are excited about the upcoming Yaris iA, just be patient for a while. We are going to see it soon.
