We may not get it...
As it has been heavily written about in a lot of automotive magazines and websites, "Mazda" is going to build the next Yaris (or a new named replacement coming out early 2015 as a 2016 model) for Toyota along-side the new 2015 Mazda 2 in their new plant in Mexico.

This is the first information I've been able to find that indicates that the U.S. will get the Yaris refresh as a 2015 model. This makes sense re the inventory tracking I've been doing. When roxy1 first posted the link to cars.com that allows a nationwide inventory search, there were almost 50 2014 Yaris L 3-door 5-speed manuals in either silver or white. As of a day or two ago, that number was down to 13. Makes sense that that stock wouldn't be replenished at this time of year if the refresh is scheduled for 'Mid-2014'. |

^^^^^ By refresh, I mean the Fu-Manchu grille and few other changes (think Europe and Canada).....like the link Tina posted......not the Mexico/Mazda one to follow that YodaBird and Onwrdigo mentioned.

Dunno...just spot checking. ...pretty generic. Like the new for 2014 Mazda3 and all new GTI for 2015 being 'refreshed' for 2015. I'm skeptical of the accuracy.

I still prefer the design of the 2009-2011 Yaris hatchback/sedan, or even the 2007-2008 versions.

It is not a Mazda. 2015 is a French built Toyota, the Mexico built cars from Mazda are not out there.

This is a common joint venture to answer your question. For many years, companies have joined up to build cars together for economic reasons. For example, the Pontiac Vibe and Chevy/Geo Prism were both built by Toyota (Matrix and Corolla). Which is why they were one exception of reliable cars "from" GM. A current example of a Toyota joint venture is the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ. Nearly identical unfortunately. Subaru drivetrain, the rest Toyota. Saves both companies money. |

A good example is the one you made, the Pontiac Vibe. Similar to the Isuzu Domani which is a rebadged Civic 96-00. Loosely identical too as the whole front and rear ends are different aesthetically. |

Acura is the luxury branch of honda motors. They are the same company. Much like Toyota and Lexus or nissan and infinity.

It will be interesting to see what unfolds, as the existing platform delivers way more than it promises. And its under the radar.

Toyota need new engines.

07-01-2014, 03:12 PM | #53 |
Not so much new engine just maybe a choice of a 1.8 L with a 6 spd from the Corolla in an RS setup ...or even better a base all bones with just TRD stuff and engine ...that I would love to see.

That would work. The engine is great. And we never have to worry about cleaning the back side of the valves.
