Toyota Yaris YRX sedan launched

The Japanese manufacturer has just expanded its product offering with a 2007 Toyota Yaris YRX model.

The top of the line trim of the popular compact city car is now available with electric power steering, dual SRS airbags, air standard conditioning and even 14-inch disk brakes working together with ABS, EBD and Brake Assist intelligent active safety systems.

The vehicle also features a 1.5-liter VVT-I engine that can be ordered with either five-speed manual or four-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission. There is also a six-CD in-dash multi-changer with MP3-compatible CD-player, LCD display that works together with analogue instruments, power windows and wireless power door locks.

The YRX's three-spoke steering wheel features tilt and telescopic adjustments. The small sedan's aero kit includes front and back spoilers, as well as side and rear skirts. Not that bad for a zipper, set to compete against such subcompacts as the 2007 Honda Fit and 2007 Nissan Versa, as well as the Hyundai Accent and Chevrolet Aveo.
