What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Yaris
| Price of the Toyota Yaris: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The base was cheaper, but with standard features, it was about the same price as the Honda Fit. |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Good value for money |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
As a teenager with not a lot of money, the payments are easy to make. |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
$12,500 OTD! |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Best deal for an under $15,000 new vehicle. |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Bought my 5-speed LOADED (side airbags, curtain airbags, ABS, Power Package, etc) ...$13,800 |
| 2008 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
You get a lot of car for the price. The ride is decent, quality materials and the Toyota name. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
The price is low, which is very appealing to younger adults like myself on a budget. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
$13,500 is affordable |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
We have a rare LOADED model with stick shift - $14,100 + tax in 2006. My sister also has a LOADED one with a similar dependability history. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Combined with the incredible fuel economy, the price makes the Yaris the best bang for the buck. |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Price was the lowest. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Price of car is very affordable; you get a lot of car for the price. Insurance is also low. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Thousands cheaper than the Honda Civic. |
| 2007 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Lowest price in class. |
| Price of the Toyota Yaris: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 2dr Hatch 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
too expensive for what it is |
| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Less car for more money. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 106-horsepower 1.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
Being 2000+ dollars more than the Focus was not practical. |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Prius
| Price of the Toyota Prius: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The prius is not very expensive compared to other hybrids, in fuel or maintenance costs. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Cheaper than the Mini |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Price was a good value |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
It was a previously owned vehicle that was offered at a very good price |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
I felt that the cost was reasonable given the technology. In addition, there was a total of $4000 in government tax rebates that lessened the cost of ownership a great deal. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
$25k out the door price. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
We have a private loan and we are paying if off as fast as we can. |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
I bought the car used. Excellent deal. |
| Price of the Toyota Prius: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Sedan 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Getting any hybrid new in 2010 for 21k was not a bad deal, but Toyota broke out the Prius into several different models, and for 21k you get a pat on the back and the little paper in the floorboard. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Several thousand more than the Insight. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Even the low end Prius was a few thousand more than the mid-range Insight EX. |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 98-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Price is too high in this uncertain economic time. Plus I tend to keep cars 10 to 12 years. I do not want to be faced with the cost of replacing the batteries (well over $1,500) eight to ten years from now. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Payments were 382 per month for 7 years, car not really worth it. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
There is the "hybrid premium" you pay because of the new technology, but the Prius is neither a small car not a cheap car. It is larger than a Camry inside and it is well built with tons of features not found on cars such as the Yaris, Corolla, Elantra... |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Far too expensive for what you get. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Its expensive, compared to other models of about the same size. It will take several years before the fuel economy pays that back. |
| 2006 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
Was a great bargain when tax credits could defray expense (I got both federal and state credits!) |
| 2005 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
The car is pricy for mid size car |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
It can be pricier than similar cars of the same model year. |
| 2004 | 4dr Hatch 76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
In Canada, there is definitely a price premium for the Prius - which is unfortunate, since it is a great car. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 70-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD |
It is an expensive car, and I am hoping to drive it for 10+ years to make that investment worth it. I am a person who would more likely buy a used car rather than something new off the lot. I just got swept away by the "green" aspect of owning a Prius. |
