Used 2018 Toyota Yaris iA Consumer Reviews
Not a bad at all - especially for the low price
Likely the only car in its price range that I would be willing to buy for myself or a relative. If you don't actually need anything bigger than this the car has great economy , price and reliability and is not a buzz box at all even on the highway and has a quite nice interior.

Not a 'small Corrolla' - nice ride!
In May 2017, I helped my son test drive and select his own first new car. We compared 2017 versions of the Mazda3 sedan, Corrolla LE, Corrolla Im hatchback, and Subaru Impreza. The Subaru had the nicest ride, felt like a bigger car, and yet had great handling. That was our favorite. But price was a factor so he went with the Yaris Ia because it was less expensive to begin with and then factoring all the discounts from Toyota (and none from Subaru) the final gap was almost $6,000! The Yaris Ia has a nicer ride and handling than the Corrolla and cost less. Other items we liked: Alloy rims, (not plastic hub caps), nicer dash materials/layout, huge screen w/backup camera. This is an excellent value when you consider safety, tech features, 2 years of maintenance free, Toyota resale value, etc.

Scion iA / Toyota Yaris iA / Mazda 2 Incredible!!!
I really wanted a fuel efficient, manual car for my 120+ commute and was slowly bracing myself to buy a used Prius... until I found this gem. The list of standard features is amazing, it comes with a 6 speed manual, and I've averaged 52 MPG over the first 1000 miles. Best trip was 56.4 MPG! Given its fuel efficiency, you may think it is a bit of a bore to drive. Well, when commuting and working on getting good gas mileage, any car is boring (except the stereo and built in entertainment package is pretty awesome). When you really want to move though, this little sedan can really go. It easily outpaces my old 1993 Celica GT and still gets about 40 MPG! Best purchase I've ever made.

Very Pleasantly Surprised
The car is peppy for its engine size; the controls are intuitive and have the right feel. I like the "largemouth bass" front grille, but others may not. The overall exterior look is smart and stylish, not dated or bland like some other subcompacts. The audio, including the hands-free mobile telephone set-up, is first rate. (Note that there's no factory CD player option available.) The 7-inch video display prominently propped up on the dashboard is beautiful. I'm tall, well over 6', and I'm still comfortable when driving for extended periods. The steering wheel telescopes, and the driver's seat can be raised or lowered, to accommodate drivers of both average and above-average height. The highway gas mileage is stupendous, nearly equivalent to a conventional hybrid. You have to be reasonable in your expectations when driving up steep hills, but I don't sense the engine struggling or over-revving to maintain sensible highway speeds. The car's safety features, including the back-up camera and the low-speed collision-avoidance system (which includes automatic braking) are great for this class. Overall, especially considering the cheap price, it's a great value and a fun ride. I'm very happy with my purchase.
