Toyota Yaris (XP150)

The XP150 series Toyota Yaris is a subcompact car produced and sold by Toyota under the Yaris nameplate since 2013. Marketed exclusively for emerging markets, it is the hatchback counterpart of the XP150 series Vios subcompact sedan, which in some markets also shared the same Yaris nameplate. It is larger and longer than the unrelated XP130 series Yaris hatchback (Vitz in Japan) which was marketed in Japan, North America, Europe and Australasia, and the succeeding TNGA-based XP210 series Yaris. The vehicle design was previewed by the Dear Qin hatchback concept that was first displayed at the Auto China in April 2012. The production vehicle made its public debut at the 15th Auto Shanghai in April 2013, and was rolled out to several Asian markets including China, Taiwan, Southeast Asia and the Middle East. The vehicle was also marketed as the Yaris Sport in Chile since 2014, and in Mexico and Argentina from 2016. In some markets such as Chile, Mexico and South Africa, it replaced the XP130 series Yaris hatchback. In 2021 in South Africa, it was replaced by the Suzuki-sourced Starlet.
