2020 Yaris Hatchback for the US

[KALISPEL II]

Shame that Mazda uses a GDI engine even in their Mazda2. Not interested in the carbon-sludge headache & maintenance associated with it to keep it running properly. I would rather stick to NA port-injected engines or port+direct injection combo engines. That really really limits new vehicle selection today, however - especially if you also don't want a CVT transmission but want an automatic. I'm thinking that I will probably look for a (no doubt rare) lower-mileage automatic 2018 Yaris SE hatchback in about 2 years if no one ever releases a decent-looking & reliable subcompact/compact hybrid in the U.S. market before then. I really hate the U.S. car/vehicle market.
