2020 Toyota Yaris Hatchback XLE 4dr Hatchback Exterior Shown

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.

I call it the Silver Fox

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. …

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.

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.

Reliability in a compact form factor

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. …
