Toyota Yaris Cross: A Youthful Twist on the Popular Hatchback

The Toyota Yaris Cross is a crossover version of the popular hatchback, designed to attract a younger audience. While the Yaris is known for its sensible and practical motoring, the Yaris Cross offers a new twist for car enthusiasts.

Compared to the standard Yaris, the Yaris Cross GR Sport is taller, wider, and longer. It stands at 1,595mm in height, 20mm wider at 1,765mm, and 240mm longer at 4,180mm.

Since its introduction in 1999, the Yaris has gained a loyal following among Irish drivers who appreciate its sensible motoring experience. While comfort and efficiency are prioritized over excitement on the road, the Yaris's impressive fuel economy has made it a popular choice.
