Toyota Yaris Variants, Feature List Leaked Ahead Of Launch In May

The Toyota Yaris has been a topic of much discussion ever since the company showcased the car at the 2018 Auto Expo. With the Yaris the company is all set to introduce a worthy contender into the compact sedan segment in India. There's been a lot that's happening in the segment ever since February 2017 when Honda updated the City with new features. Hyundai then, in August the same year, brought out the new generation of the Verna which has managed to eat into the sales of both the Ciaz (which hasn't received much in terms of updates). The Yaris then comes into a segment which has established players but Toyota is making sure that the car gets features that differentiate it from the crowd.
