| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I can adjust the seat back so I can reach all controls with just arm movement. I can raise the seat so my thighs are fully supported right out to my knees. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
For the size of car, there is a lot of front seat room see full Toyota Yaris review |

Ride position too low. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Ha ha ha ha! Perhaps a small dog would be comfortable back there. The only good thing about the back seat is that I've read it is not too hard to remove it entirely! see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Not comfortable to sit in for more than an hour. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The back seats are extremely cramped when slid forward. They must be slid forward when a non-tiny amount of cargo needs to be put in the back. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Small in the back, but the seats can adjust, recline and fold down for cargo. see full Toyota Yaris review |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
incofortable even for only two adults. The passanger in the center will be very inconfortable when tree passengers are in rear seat. see full Toyota Yaris review |
