One thing I don't get is that they say the rules are that its below 6.5 L/100 km
but the official stats on the yaris, on the toyota website, in the brochure book, and on the government website, are 6.9 L/100km

But on the website that has the vehicles listed it is 6.3 and 6.4 L /100 km

Do they actually qualify or is it some kind of mistake haha - cause I have my yaris ordered (over a Honda Fit) specifically because of the $1000 rebate (well, and the exterior of the Yaris is much better than a Honda fit, and the Fit doesn't come in white :(

the reason it went down to 6.3 is because it average the gas mile between hwy and city it should be 6.9 city + 5.5 hwy / 2 = about 6.278545 round off to 6.3 and that makes yaris on that average.

Yeah that is a stretch...called the phone number on that website. He says the government just picked a random cut-off day and had no logic behind it. Oh well.

march 20 was the date the canadian budget was handed down.
