The 2010 Toyota Yaris lineup gains some new safety features. This is Toyota’s smallest car. It’s offered as a 2- or 4-door hatchback or 4-door sedan, each in Base and S trims. The sole powertrain is a 106-hp 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine with a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. Available safety features include ABS, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Previously unavailable, traction control and an antiskid system are newly standard. Hatchbacks are available with a split-folding rear seat that reclines and slides fore and aft. Other options include remote keyless entry and power windows, locks, and mirrors. This report is based on evaluations of the 2009 Toyota Yaris.
