YARIS HATCH....are they bringing it in?

[brubeck]

been surfing the net and seeing tons of positive reviews about this cute hatch. wanted to get one for my daughter...college car. any insider news as to when TOYOTA plans to make it available would be highly appreciated. peace to all tsikot members and have a great weekend! drive safely!

p.s. any idea how much they'll sell this baby. saw the thai website of toyota and prices starts at 599,000 baht.

599000*1.3878

830,xxx

siguro mga ganyan din or 1M.

Let's hope not....the Vios is a fine sub compact already, IMO. I have seen Yaris both in Canada and US. And frankly, the Vios at least seems better appearance-wise since there are still no proper comparison for the two yet.

According to a Toyota sales guy they said expect the new Yaris to be more expensive than the equivalent Vios.
The Yaris Toyota is considering for the RP is most likely the Thai built ASEAN Yaris hatchback.
The ASEAN Yaris currently comes with one engine, the 1.5 VVTi.

I believe there are more details on the existing Yaris threads.

My guess, the Yaris 1.5 will probably start in the P700K area.

Congrats sir iba na talaga ang Pinoy families ngaun... daughters & sons have tsikot na as "standard equipment" when going to schools....

Seriously though... Get something na mas malaki ang body to protect your daughter in case of accidents (knock knock)

Nung pumunta kasi ako sa U.S. dati, may titos and titas only want SUVs for their daughters para kung magkaruon man ng aberya sa daan, mas matibay ang SUVs compared to small cars....

Opinion ko lang po to para sigurado kayo na safe ang anak nyo!

some SUV's are more dangerous than smaller cars beacause it give the driver an awe of invincibility plus smaller cars have better active safety than SUV's. some SUVs are prone to roll-over and some SUVs have worst crash safety records than smaller cars.

thanks guys for all the replies. i think price would be around 600 to 650K as the innova in thailand sells for 1M baht. choice is really down to the jazz and yaris with a slight advantage to the jazz as it's already available.

commuting in manila is totally different compared to when i was in college 17 years back. beleive me if you have a daughter and you can work your butt out to buy her a decent transpo, you'd do it in a heartbeat

agree! and plan to get variants with at least abs and airbags. but i think the best is to be always alert and practice defensive driving skills which i have passed on to my daughter. thanks again guys and happy/safe driving

mas maganda ang vios...
check pic of yaris hatch

[ruel23]

eto naman ang yaris sedan

[Camgen6]

Di ba yan ang papalit sa Vios? I see them more and more dito sa SoCal mukhang nagiging popular, taas kasi ng gas.

If it ever arrives here, imo go for it sir. Di ko lang po alam ang build quality ng toyota Pinas but it was received well when it was made available in Australia early last year. I get to ride in my officemate's brand new hatch and it was surprisingly comfortable, safe (airbags) and spacious for a compact- unlike the Echo (I loathe this car) its predecessor. Bummer, 700k's a bit pricey dito sa Pinas when mas cheaper sa Oz by a couple of hundred k's.

It's not a fair comparison kasi units from Australia come from the Iwate factory of Toyota Japan which is from the source mismo (same for US & Canada)

But even so, TMPI-made is still okay if they decide to make it locally. Nothing to worry about quality unlike HCPI and their lemons of Honda Civics (FD)

Sorry kung nabuhay ko yung thread na ito..

BUT they're showing yaris hatch tv commercials on Sports plus and Starworld.

They're bringing it in here na kaya?

Jazz vs Swift vs Yaris = Hatch wars!!

[msg]

talked to three sales rep ( from balintawak, makati and pampanga )

lahat sila sabi nila end of the year or early next year daw ilalabas. 1.3 daw muna then 1.5

they will put a tag price that will compete daw with the jazz...

same engine with vios to eh...pero i think i want it to hehe looks

[staind]

for me, ganda talaga ng yaris hatch!

and maganda ang jazz and swift! hehehe. hirap mamili dyan!!

have seen Yaris in Indonesia. ito ang pantapat nila sa Jazz. Mas mahal ito keysa vios or avanza.

[ssaloon]

the yaris sedan looks good. a fitting vios successor

[oldblue]

yaris, yari ka pag nabangga ka ng malaking suv or vehicle. yari(s) kung madami ka sakay

[msg]

di dw nila papalit sa vios to, they are not in the same category hehe

pantatapat daw sa jazz. kasi city kalaban nya vios diba?

i think may crumple zone naman pero kakatakot nga mga exped at mga chevy kapag binagga nila yaris mo, or jazz or swift
