that is normal rpm for yaris.. as the saying goes you save fuel by driving not more than 55mph (88kph) and it is also related to your driving habits.. i mean not stepping on the gas pedal that hard... there must be a "steady soft touch" just to maintain your speed... but i doubt if you can maintain this speed in UAE... i have been there last month driving and almost all cars speed at ave 120kph-140kph... it would be difficult to switch lanes esp the roads are very wide if you just drive at 88kph should be atleast 100kph... when going back to Saudi i even reached 4000+ rpm at 130-140kph and i never did think about fuel consumption as i want to reach home fast, it was 11 hour drive going back to jubail from dubai with severe sandstorm and alternate rains...
