  1. Got a 2025 Yaris 1.3L CVT, £35 road tax & some early models £165 with later models roughly same price (2017 i think). I got 59mpg on a good drive, manual ones with a longer 6th gear ratio as Toyota mentioned, that does 1mpg better i read, never knew an auto or CVT do better MPG than manuals. Did have a 2002 Yaris 1.3L 4speed auto & that was £255 road tax!! With a best of 48mpg. Glad i got a 2015 model.
