You will also notice its massive bumper with deeply inserted fog lights and larger air intakes in it. This sedan should stand on standard 16-inch aluminum wheels. On higher trim levels, you will also notice its heated mirrors. Speaking of higher trims, they will appear much sportier and aggressive. The new Yaris will also improve aerodynamics thanks to its sharper front end. In the back part of the vehicle, you will find its LED taillights and a rear spoiler. It has also been announced that the sedan will be available in seven new color choices.
