FAQs

What is the common problem of Toyota Yaris? ›

Oil leak

Early Toyota Yaris models may develop an oil leak due to worn and corroded parts. Failure to fix the issue could result in your vehicle overheating if it runs low on oil. If you continue to drive without sufficient lubrication, this can cause severe engine damage.

If we had to pick a winner, it's probably the Yaris Cross, but only because it's the newer design of the two and offers lease customers that “fresh-out-the-box” appeal. Size-wise, the Yaris Cross is just under 4.2 metres long, while the C-HR is a little longer and closer to 4.4 metres.
