Video: 2019 Toyota Yaris 1.5G AT Test Drive & Review - It isn't just a Vios With a Boot! It Drives Better!!!

So we have been a bit busy with many, many things recently. One of them is going on the media test drive of the new, 2019 Toyota Yaris which was held sometime last week. UMW Toyota Motors, the distributors of Toyota vehicles here held a media drive for this newly launched B Segment compact hatchback. We were paired with another journo or two (technically would make it a trio not a pair) and were asked to drive a Yaris 1.5G AT to Janda Baik over in Pahang and back to the UMW Toyota HQ located in Shah Alam. 

Toyota Yaris Launched! Prices Start at RM70,888 Making This A Truly Affordable Hatchback For Malaysians

The All-new Toyota Yaris has finally been launched for the Malaysian market by Malaysian distributors for Toyota, UMW Toyota Motor. The model is the second vehicle, after the recently launched Toyota Vios, to be locally assembled at UMW Toyota Motor's new assembly plant at Bukit Raja in Klang, Selangor. The new Toyota hatchback will be sold from an affordable RM70,888 onwards and it quite affordable due to its high local content. The Malaysian Yaris has at least 70% local content inside of it.
