What are the specs of the Toyota Yaris 1.5 2024?
The 2024 Toyota Yaris 1.5 lineup centers on a 1.5-liter engine offered in hybrid and non-hybrid forms. In most markets, the hybrid pairs the 1.5-liter petrol engine with an electric motor for around 114 horsepower total, while the traditional petrol variant delivers roughly 125 horsepower. Transmission choices and exact figures vary by region and trim level.
Powertrain options
The following outlines the two primary configurations available with the 2024 Yaris 1.5 in many markets, noting typical outputs and drivetrains.
Hybrid powertrain
- Engine: 1.5-liter three-cylinder Atkinson-cycle petrol engine combined with an electric motor
- System output: roughly 114 horsepower (85 kW) combined
- Transmission: electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (e-CVT)
- Drive: front-wheel drive (FWD)
- Efficiency: WLTP figures commonly around the mid-to-high single digits in liters per 100 km, with CO2 emissions in the open-to-compact range for hybrids
Hybrid versions emphasize fuel efficiency and city-driving versatility, often delivering the best overall economy in everyday use. Availability and exact figures depend on market and trim.
Non-hybrid petrol powertrain
- Engine: 1.5-liter three-cylinder petrol engine
- Output: typically around 125 horsepower (93 kW), with torque in the mid-range for a subcompact
- Transmission: available with a manual transmission in some trims and a CVT in others
- Drive: front-wheel drive (FWD)
- Performance and economy: 0-100 km/h in the vicinity of roughly 9.5–11 seconds depending on transmission; fuel economy varies by spec and market
Petrol variants prioritize driving feel and initial purchase price, while the hybrid focuses on efficiency. Regional availability and exact numbers can differ significantly.
Dimensions and performance
The following figures cover the Yaris 1.5’s size, capability, and everyday practicality across typical European-market specs for 2024.

- Assistance and convenience: automatic high beams, rear-view camera, parking sensors on many trims; some markets offer a more extensive display and driver-assistance package
Hardware and software features are evolving with trim level and market. Buyers should verify the exact package on their local Yaris 1.5 model.
Market availability and trims
Regional variations
Regional differences influence which powertrain you’ll find in the showroom. Hybrid versions are common in Europe and parts of Asia, while petrol variants may be more prevalent in other regions with different emissions and tax structures. Trim levels, equipment, and standard features also shift by market.
- Europe: widely offered as Hybrid and petrol, with several design trims and safety packages
- Asia and other markets: availability tailored to local regulations and consumer preferences; some regions emphasize efficiency while others prioritize price/performance
For buyers, the exact spec sheet—engine output, transmission choice, equipment, and official fuel economy—will depend on local market, year of manufacture, and chosen trim. Verify with a local dealer for the precise configuration.
Summary
The 2024 Toyota Yaris 1.5 presents a compact hatchback option with two main powertrains: a hybrid system pairing a 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine with electric assist for strong efficiency, and a traditional 1.5-liter petrol setup offering a punchier drive. Across markets, the Yaris 1.5 balances compact exterior dimensions with practical interior space, a modern safety and infotainment package, and transmission choices tailored to regional preferences. As with any model year, exact figures—especially power, economy, and features—vary by market and trim, so local specifications should be consulted for precise numbers.
