Road test: Toyota Yaris Hybrid

Toyota

Toyota has its sights on making the hybrid supermini category its own with the new Yaris Hybrid. But is it any good?

What is it?

Toyota has been selling hybrids to us for 15 years now, but they have yet to crack the hybrid supermini market. Meet the Yaris Hybrid – the car that is tasked with making the rather small but fashionably green hybrid small car market its own. It plunges in with an asking price of £15,195 – making it the cheapest full-hybrid on the market – and boasts a number of visual changes which transforms the normally rather dour Yaris into a smart, if funky little car.
