They're putting cruise in the sedan for cryin out loud!

[why?]

It is silly to not offer it as an option, it is not like the computers are not already there.

It really seems the Yaris hatch in the US is getting short changed. No tach, no option for cruise (not even aftermarket through the dealer); what gives?

If people want these options, perhaps they'll be available on the 2008s. I dunno.

Either way, the name sucks. They're marketing department deserves a Monty Python knight-with-rubber-chicken bonk across the head.

There already is a Honda Jazz in America. I belive it's a motorcycle. For those who dont like the Fit name, Honda dealers are selling Jazz emblems...

By the way, what the heck does Yaris mean? What makes that name mo betta?

t's Toyota's variation of Charis, which is a Greek word for grace, and was the name, in Greek mythology, of a goddess of fertility, art and beauty. Charis became charisma.
