2015 Yaris one of 5 worst cars as per C/R

[NYC-SE]

The thing is that CR doesn't take reliability into account when rating vehicles. The test reports and the reliability reports are two seperate things. The test report is based on the subjective, i.e. what the reviewer likes or dislikes, as opposed to the reliability ratings which are objective data driven assessments, i.e. 2% of cars suffered this issue, etc. The Yaris does much, much better when measured this way according to CR's numbers.

I'll stick with the Yaris in any event.

But you can tell the writer didn't actually put hands on an actual Yaris. He did not test drive one, he just went by stuff he found on the internet. Hint one: he calls the automatic "optional".
