Toyota Kirloskar Motors will soon launch a Black limited edition of Yaris sedan. It is likely to be based on the top-spec VX variant. Recently, the brand has teased the upcoming edition on social media platforms.
As the name suggests, the Yaris Black Edition is purely a cosmetic package that will feature a blacked-out theme on the exterior of the car. To give a plush feel, Toyota has also done some chrome treatment around the headlamps and tail lamps.
On the inside, it will also get a door edge ambient lighting with chrome garnish. However, the insight of door trims indicates that the black edition variant will sport a black-beige cabin theme like the other variants. Apart from these additions, no other changes are visible in the teaser images.

As mentioned above, It is expected to be based on the top-line variant. If it does, it will be a feature-loaded trim, the main highlights include an auto headlamp, 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, gesture control, auto climate control, cruise control, keyless entry, engine start/stop button, steering mounted audio controls, rain-sensing wipers, 7 airbags, ABS with EBD, tire pressure monitoring system, front and rear parking sensors, rear parking camera, electronic stability control, etc.
