The Toyota Yaris Hatchback has been spotted testing in India multiple times. This has fueled speculation about its local launch. If introduced, it could serve as a premium alternative to the Toyota Glanza, offering more features and better build quality, along with a stronger performance. If launched in India, it would become a direct rival of the higher variants of the Hyundai i20.
Globally, the Yaris is known for its fuel-efficient engines, spacious interiors, and strong safety features. Toyota could bring it to India with a 1.5L petrol engine and even a hybrid powertrain option. With rising demand for feature-rich premium hatchbacks, the Toyota Yaris Hatchback could attract buyers seeking a blend of safety, poshness and Toyota’s trademark reliability. A 2025 launch seems likely if Toyota decides to expand its hatchback portfolio.
