Next-gen Yaris spied?

Soooo ... are you looking at the next-gen Toyota Yaris/Vitz? Possibly. This picture, posted to Turbo.fr certainly looks like it just might be. Decked out in Modellista garb, this possible new Toyota subcompact looks pretty good, IMHO. Be sure to click the Turbo.fr link to see more photos.

Nice.
I wonder to what extent they've transferred over the iQ's guts. An iQ platform stretched out to Yaris length, with no provision for an AWD variant, would let them steal the Tardis Prize for space utilization from the Fit at last.

OTOH if they DO make an awd model, at the very least they should bring it here - the existing one being JDM only was a huge missed opportunity.

I'm really looking forward to what this looks like without the Modellista stuff on it. The Yaris was sort of an "early" subcompact, since it hit the market in late '06 as an '07, so it's in need of a redesign. Hopefully it's as nice as the latest crop of small cars (Fiesta, Mazda2, Honda Fit).

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't like the bumper? (The lower part, not the lights and grill.) It's too aggressive for me. I like the cuter look of the current Yaris. D:

Lol. I don't like the bumper too! I agree it's not cute. Maybe women like us like these things to be super cute most of the time.
