I have a friend who is obsessed with fuel economy, and bought a Corolla. He says the Corolla is more economical in long distance highway driving than the Yaris, while the Yaris is better in city traffic driving. YMMV :-)

My miata gets about the same mpg as the Yaris if driven the same way. So it's not too surprising that a Corolla could do a bit better. But at that point, seems like a prius is a better option given that they aren't much more expensive than a corolla and will get much better mpg. Professionally reconditioned batteries are quite affordable with the core charge.
