Toyota Yaris Discontinued In India; Replacement Is In Works

We reported about Toyota Yaris's production halt in May, and now Toyota has officially announced its discontinuation from the Indian market. However, the carmaker will continue to provide support to its existing customers through its dealer network across the country, along with the availability of genuine spare parts for at least the next 10 years.

Toyota Yaris could not perform well in the Indian market since its launch in 2018. This could be due to the lack of a diesel engine and a higher price tag than its rivals. However, with 7-airbags, it was one of the safest cars in its category. Now, the Japanese carmaker will soon launch Maruti Ciaz-based derivative as its replacement that is likely to be known as Toyota Belta. Besides, Toyota has also started testing Yaris's hatchback version on our soil, suggesting the brand is preparing to introduce this global model in our country. Click here for details.

Here's what Toyota has stated about Yaris's discontinuation: – 

Toyota Kirloskar Motor announces the discontinuation of Yaris in India with effect from 27th Sep 2021. This move is a part of Toyota’s product strategy to continue to cater to the ever-evolving needs of the customer through enhanced technologies and product offerings. In every sense, the Yaris is truly a top-class, versatile sedan. Ever since its India debut, the Yaris built on Toyota’s QDR philosophy, won the hearts of the customers with its stunning style & design, leading features, low maintenance cost, and unmatchable drivability, thus creating a unique ownership experience. We thank all our customers for their support and for placing their trust in the brand. We would like to continue to serve such customers with other current offerings and preparations are underway to launch new Toyota models in the coming new year 2022.

Further, Toyota will continue to seamlessly cater to all Yaris customers’ needs through our dealer service outlets across the country, along with the promise of availability of Toyota genuine spare parts for a minimum of the next 10 years on this discontinued model.
