I've seen some Yaris in the US a few months ago, and I should admit that they do not excite me....

Well the Jazz/Fit has 109hp and 105 lb-ft , 5 speed manual and 5 speed auto w/ paddle shifters. MacPherson struts up front and torsion beam suspension in the rear also.

FYI most cars have MacPherson struts suspension for the front so that's nothing special. As a matter of fact my 1998 Lancer uses it and so did my 1988 BMW. Now if you had said it had double wishbone then it would be different from anything in it's market.

gulat ako sa size ng yaris. It's bigger than I expected...

One thing I really hate about Toyotas is their accelerator pedal size and location. Baon na baon to the right side ng driver footwell. Considering it has a central instrument cluster, I'd stay away from that. That goes to show that the car wasn't designed with safety in mind, but more so for cheap replacement parts/marketing in other countries.

In Car and Driver's May '06, the publication conducted a compact comparison test and the Jazz came in 1st place while the Yaris Sedan came in 4th. Even the Kia Rio and Nissan Versa beats the Yaris, by coming in 3rd and 2nd respectively.
