    B-Mode Explanation is _wrong_!
    It is very common that people get it wrong. B enables Engine-Braking mode. It is only to be used on looong descents when the battery would be fully charged rapidly.
    It will mainly save wear on the disc brakes.

    The maximum limit for congestion charge exemption is 75g/Km CO2 but the Yaris specifications say 79g/Km. How does it avoid the daily congestion charge? Also, the video says Prius users pay congestion charge, which is not true for plug-in Prius models. Am I missing something?

    • @PieroCornice
      @PieroCornice 8 лет назад

      I found that this website: carfueldata.dft.gov.uk/ provides the DVLA official values (for UK).
      In particular all Yaris models are above the 75g/Km limit, except from these 2015 models which are at 75g/Km:
      - Yaris Icon 1.5 VVT-i E-CVT
      - Yaris Excel 1.5 E-CVT 15'' wheels
      - Yaris Icon 1.5 hybrid E-CVT 15'' wheels
      Hope this can be helpful.

      Thanks for this.
      In Japan, the MAXIMUM price for a Yaris' (which is called the Vitz there) goes up to 1.9m Yen (= GBP 11,300).
      The Japanese market also gets a Yaris 1.33 litre with an Atkinson cycle. This is 20% more economical than the current Euro-1.33 litre. Europe has still not received this engine.
      The Yaris just too expensive for what it is

      Juxtaposition. There are also turbines in some of the shots, but they were quite far away from where we were so not ideal for the main shot.

    • @Tuppoo94
      @Tuppoo94 2 года назад

      I believe it's a coal powerplant with cooling towers. They're typically associated with nuclear power plants, but can be used with pretty much any thermal power plant.

  • @deanprosser5224
    @deanprosser5224 9 лет назад +4

    I cannot agree with this review, I have one as a company car and it is nowhere near as economical as they say.
    I'm struggling to get 54mpg (I have a 104 mile daily round trip) I am very light on the accelerator and brake and in my previous car a fiesta diesel I managed 76mpg regularly.
    The brakes are terrible, spongy feeling and more like a switch in operation either on or off. It has been back to the dealer twice already.
    All in all I am very dissapointed with this car and I'm stuck with it for the next 4 years.
