Toyota Yaris Comparisons for mpg, CO2s and performance updated

I've updated carbuyersinfo Toyota Yaris Comparisons with a table detailing the Yaris fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and performance.

This enables you to measure the Yaris's overall efficiency. Fuel economy figures for town, country and combined are all included along with fuel costs, top speed, acceleration and emissions.

There's a link to compare the Yaris with all small cars for sale in the UK. I've grouped them by dimensions - city cars, super-minis and super-sized. You won't find much difference in these figures for cars of the same dimensions and engine capacity.

This not a bad thing because it leaves you free to compare other features such as versatility, safety and comfort.

The main differences are to be found in safety and style. To me, they all look stylish in their own way. The thing to watch out for is rear visibility which is an important safety feature.

Car safety isn't just about crash protection. Being able to prevent an accident with the help of ABS and ESP is important. But first you need perception - the ability to see a hazard which is not always ahead of you. Tailgating still causes a significant number of accidents. There's also the issue of being able to see pedestrians behind you in car parks.

I'll leave you on that happy note.
