The Yaris CVT feels much better than the Iriz I tested a few months ago. Not sure if the latest Iriz MC2 is any good, haven't tested that.

The deal breaker for me on the Iriz, is the small boot space.
Well my family still have a 2007 first gen vios, so I can say the touch quality is a bit better here in the Yaris, especially the digital AC controller.

That being said, that car has had not given a single rattle or squeak over the years, which is more than I can say for the dugongs and catfish I've been in. Not sure if the new Vios/Yaris can stand the test of time.

Heard throttle response improved, better creeping for city driving. Refer 4:15



I can imagine Yaris is still the more complete package, but top spec Iriz at rm50k is at least rm20k cheaper than base Yaris, it's a compelling package on its own.

The small boot on my Iriz had done quite a few hauling for me. Folded seats in a hatch surprises me just how much it can take in, so i think it's no dealbreaker lest you carry more than 2 passengers quite a lot.

The only thing stopping me from getting the iriz is the clutch-coupled CVT.

Then can only wait next gen with Geely's own powertrain, much more modern, will tapau all the Japanese offers.

Why nowadays car interior getting boring and boring? Yaris boring, Vios boring, City also boring, even HRV.

Anyone feel the same, i think the reason is no more hard button and knobs for aircond, HU volume control etc

Manufacturers want to streamline their interiors to make it look more spacious and put more cupholders. I think removing physical buttons are a bad idea, they are just making things more difficult and expensive to repair when things break, especially when if your HU hangs and suddenly you have no AC control.

It's unnecessary and comes off as a dick measuring contest (My car has less button than yours) at the expense of consumers.

Some simple mechanical functions such as handbrakes should also stay mechanical.
