The new 2020 Yaris hatchback is a pleasing urban runabout that should work out well for people on a budget. It has surprisingly good handling chops, a nice-looking interior and usable cargo hatch. But it compromises a bit of comfort for those performance gains, and it doesn't have the available features you can find in some competitors.

2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback LE 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 6A)
I love this car! It’s my second Yaris. My first is a 2012 sedan and has over $150K miles. It will be my son’s whenever he gets his license. It just keeps going.
The 2020 is everything I loved about my 2012 but so much more! Upgraded design, entertainment system, safety systems, and it has this Sport button that kicks the engine up a notch and makes it that much more fun to drive. … Same great MPG as my 2012 which for me is the best selling point. I don’t live in an area that fully supports electric vehicles yet. Charging stations are hard to find. So gas is still the way to go and I get 44 MPG so not to shabby. And I purchased brand new with a ton of options for well under $20K. I love this car. I hope they still this model when it’s time to buy again.
Bluebelle was an excellent purchase!

2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback XLE 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 6A)
My Hatchback Yaris is roomy and comfortable. She is able to transport more than many larger cars while getting excellent gas mileage. This is my second Yaris Hatchback. Hank, my 2010 was totaled and saved my life when I was hit head on by another driver. He had 186,000 miles on him and was in perfect condition.

2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback LE 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 6A)
Couldn't be happier. We knew there'd be sacrifices such as trunk space, cabin noise and blind spots. We also knew there would be advantages. 6-speed transmission, good gas mileage, good handling and tight turning radius.

2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback LE 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 6A)
I just got mine with around 10k miles on it! So far, I absolutely love it. I drove it back from the dealership for about two hours through clear skies and rain, and it handled very well. The gas mileage is great, and although the horsepower is lower compared to my old V6, it easily reaches speeds of 70+ MPH without any issues and can stay there without any struggle or engine hissing. … It’s basically a Mazda/Toyota collaboration, so I know it’ll last until I get bored of it, and even then, I’m sure it’ll treat whoever owns it next well. The interior doesn’t feel cheap and the infotainment system is pretty decent for a compact car.
I’ve heard people complain about engine noise and cabin noise when driving on the highway, but in my opinion, it’s not terrible coming from a 2013 Dodge Avenger. It’s far from deafening and won’t bug you, depending on what you’re used to. Definitely test drive one for yourself and be the judge.
The biggest downside to the car is the speakers, which are pretty dull-sounding. They lack control with mid and low frequencies. But if you’re not really into music and just want to play some tunes casually or listen to a podcast, they’ll do nicely. Also, I noticed the backseat and trunk feel a bit tight in terms of space. But I’m able to fit a good amount of groceries and luggage inside it, more than you’d think. And although the backseats are a bit tight, they will work fine if you want to go long distances anywhere.
Overall, I don’t have a single regret getting this car.
