Why is Toyota discontinuing the Yaris?
The Toyota Yaris was discontinued in many markets due to declining sales as consumers shifted to larger SUVs and a strategic shift by Toyota to focus on SUVs and hybrid/electric vehicles. In North America, the discontinuation was also because the last generation was a rebadged Mazda2, which wasn't selling well enough to justify continued production. For newer, globally available Yaris models, safety and emissions regulations made it too expensive to develop a new, affordable entry-level version.
Reasons for discontinuation
- Declining small car sales: In North America and other markets, sales of small cars like the Yaris had been plummeting for years as consumer preference shifted towards larger vehicles, such as SUVs and crossovers.
- Strategic company shift: Toyota decided to focus its resources on its SUV lineup and other fuel-efficient models, including hybrids and electric vehicles. The platform and some engines from the Yaris were adapted for use in other models, such as the Corolla.
- Cost of new regulations: For newer generations, the cost of re-engineering the Yaris to meet new safety and emissions standards made it too expensive to produce as an entry-level, budget-friendly car.
- Market-specific issues: In some regions, the Yaris faced tough competition from other models in its segment, leading to slow sales. In the US, the final Yaris was a rebadged Mazda2 that sold poorly compared to other models in the Toyota lineup, such as the Corolla.
- Inability to justify investment: The low sales volume made it difficult to justify the investment in a new model generation, especially when compared to the performance of other Toyota vehicles.
Which Yaris color is best?
There's something classy about a metallic grey, and Decuma grey metallic really suits the Yaris Cross. It's subtle but smart. Grey is a good choice if you are keeping one eye on the future value of the car when the time comes to sell it on.
