Yaris! Super economical car, doesn't break down and the price is affordable for Brazilians.
The good thing is that it will be cheaper so there is no problem in it being discontinued, it is even good
Wow!!! I would really like the Yaris Sedan to continue.
These vehicles, despite being equipped with technology, are outdated compared to others in the same segment. It's good that they are discontinued because I think that will lower the prices that are already sky-high.
Without a doubt the Yaris sedan. Anyone who has had one will always have a positive view of this car. Even when used, it will be revered.
