What are the different types of Toyota Yaris 2011?
The 2011 Toyota Yaris was primarily available as hatchback models in multiple markets, with variations in body style, engine options and trim levels. There was no U.S. sedan variant in that year, and exact configurations depended on the country and region.
Body styles and regional availability
To help clarify what buyers saw in 2011, here are the two main hatchback formats that were commonly offered worldwide.
Hatchback body styles
- 3-door hatchback
- 5-door hatchback
Note: Availability of each body style, along with engines and trims, varied by country. In some markets, Yaris variants were marketed under different names (for example, in Europe some markets used the Yaris name for what others called the Vitz).
Powertrain options by market
Engine choices differed by region. Broadly, smaller engines were common in Europe and parts of Asia, while North American versions typically used a larger, 1.5-liter unit.
Typical engine options in 2011 Yaris
- Smaller displacement options around 1.0–1.3 liters (common in several international markets)
- 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine (common in many North American Yaris hatchbacks)
Exact engine offerings and power outputs varied by country and model year refinements. A dedicated Yaris Hybrid variant arrived later in many markets and was not a standard 2011 feature.
Transmission choices
Transmission availability followed trim and market, with two primary configurations commonly offered.
- 5-speed manual
- 4-speed automatic
Specific combinations of engine and transmission depended on the regional spec and the chosen trim level.
Trims and market-specific variants
Trim names and feature sets differed by region, reflecting local market preferences and equipment levels. The same model year could be sold as different trim lines in different countries.
Global patterns
- Standard/base trims with essential equipment
- Mid-level trims with extra comfort and convenience features
- Sportier or higher-content variants in certain regions
For precise trim names and feature lists, consult the 2011 Yaris brochures or dealer catalogs for your country, as naming and package contents varied widely by market (for example, L/LE in North America, and Active/Trend in some European markets).
Summary
In 2011, the Toyota Yaris largely offered hatchback options in two body styles, with region-dependent engine choices and transmissions. Trim names and feature sets varied by market, reflecting local preferences. Prospective buyers should review local specifications to understand the exact 2011 Yaris configuration available in their country.
