The side features a fastback like profile while at the back, there is a slim pair of tail lamps that look reminiscent to the latest Honda City are shown while having sequential turn indicators.
The teaser also reveals a striking red-colored dashboard with a freestanding infotainment touchscreen central display, which looks to be inspired by the new Mazda 3. Meanwhile, the three-spoke steering design may also look familiar as it has been on the likes of the Toyota Raize and Daihatsu Rocky.
Based on the Daihatsu New Global Architecture (DNGA) modular platform, the new D92A Yaris will also be bigger in dimensions than the current XP150 model, although Toyota is yet to release official details regarding its dimensions & powertrain options. However according to Thai motoring media, two engine options will be available including a 1.2L naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine, in line with the Thailand’s eco-car leanings, and a new 1.5L hybrid which will likely be the one deployed in the new JDM Toyota Aqua.
