“As a second car or town runabout, the Yaris Hybrid makes sense – but it’s too compromised to recommend elsewhere.”

“It gets the styling, suspension and steering from a hot hatch, but the powertrain from an eco-focused small car. No matter which you want, there are more convincing ways to spend £20,000.”

“Here is a city-friendly hybrid supermini that has been done up in sporting finery inspired by Toyota’s motorsport team. Hmm. Sounds very much like a case of confused identity.”

“This revised Yaris does enough to hold its position in the B-segment’s highly-competitive pecking order without shining in any particular department.”

“Despite revisions for 2017 there remain better small hatchbacks than the Toyota Yaris. That said, having the only hybrid in this part of the market does mean the Yaris holds some appeal for company car drivers and those who regularly commute into the capital.”

“A far-reaching facelift has improved it, but it’s still not a match for the class best. At least you can now justify it.”

“Although it’s well equipped and has a hybrid option, the Toyota Yaris doesn’t excel in enough areas to stand out in the tough small car class.”
