GR Yaris (Gen 2) GR Yaris Mk2 (MY2024->)

Same car, probably loaded with additional features that I find unnecessary and undesirable.

I have a strong preference for analog over digital dashes. Perhaps it's a bit old-fashioned, but I find analog gauges more visually comfortable, less distracting, and they possess an 'organic' quality. They also tend to age more gracefully compared to digital interfaces, which often don't stand the test of time in terms of design.

I am so pleased it’s an auto. Absolutely zero interest from me, and will be reflected in the residuals of the original too.

I spent the first six months babying the car because the current going price here in Japan is more than I paid. Then I remembered why I bought the damn thing...and now I just drive it :) But there's a part of me that hopes the new one is a flop :LOL:
 
Think I will stick with mine thankyou as waited along time for it and if it comes to uk will be easy 40k plus as Toyota will try to cash in on it and original was a steal at 33k and interest rates so high monthly’s will be high no 0% etc
 
I'm just afraid of one thing and that is the car will probably have ISA (Intelligent Speed Assistance) which you'll need to disable everytime you start the car. In some car you need to enter 3-4 menu's before you can disable the audible alarm.
Let's hope someone finds a way to disable this annoyance.
 
Hello

We will know more on January 12th. Probably sales will start from March onwards with first deliveries taking place in September 2024.

If you have a read through the thread, you’ll see we’re a little way from knowing if, what, when and where! Watch this space.

As we’ve been discussing Toyota will get a £15k fine per car that exceeds the new EV rules that come into force in January. An auto Yaris or even a new manual will likely be closer if not over £40k so will Toyota UK just say no or will they then charge £55k with the fine?

As has been mentioned somethings clearly happening but if the UK or Europe will see something is anyone’s guess.

And of course now I’ve written all this I’m probably wrong.

Be interesting when more concrete details show up, like power, price, etc.

If it's auto only, that's me out immediately, and like others I actually quite like the analogue dash. I agree they are far more timeless.

I wouldn't be surprised to see these pushing close to 40k, and with worse finance available, I'm not sure it's something I'd entertain.

That said I said a long time ago I was keeping this car a long time so a mildly different model doesn't make much difference to me.

I'm still hoping we just get the Kinto upgrade for the UK
