There are many people with Yaris who've gotten over 50 mpg.
And according to the test done by Motor Trend, Yaris beats Fit in both 0-60mph and 1/4 mile race.

0-60mph Yaris 10.4s ; Fit 11.9
1/4 miles Yaris 17.8s ; Fit 18.4

I can attest to that, but I've only broken 50mpg on a long trip, pretty much all highway keeping the speed low using various hypermilling techniques to keep from being bored to death. (I know that seems a bit opposite of what most would do on a long trip)

Normally, it's between 41-43 to the tank at 70% highway, but with the winter and much more city driving (about 50%), I'm still getting 36-38 which isn't bad at all.

Of course my baby will never see 60 in 10.4s ... I like my Yaris.

Never say never; if you ever see a semi in your mirror barreling down at you while you're sitting at a red light...
