Toyota continued to move forward, and in 2018 again carried out a gentle styling update for certain markets.The new Yaris, also as Toyota Vios In some markets, new cars will undergo a comprehensive model replacement. Although the new cars will be brand new, Toyota will also transfer the new cars to the modular DNGA platform, which is currently responsible for Toyota Raiser SUV and its big announcement, RockyDaihatsu previewed a concept car based on this platform in Indonesia as early as 2017. This concept is called the Daihatsu DN-F sedan.

This new model will be called D92A internally, and the letter D in the code indicates that the car will be transferred to the Daihatsu platform, which is now used to support new cars and SUVs for emerging markets. For starters, the DNGA platform (Daihatsu’s next-generation architecture) is a version of Toyota’s TNGA modular platform for a long list of cars and SUVs worldwide. The new platform will help the next-generation Yaris reduce weight, increase rigidity and improve safety.

There is no detailed information on the new Yaris engine and power system, however, we expect that this model will share its engine options with Toyota Raize SUV, including 1.5-liter gasoline and 1.0-liter gasoline engines. It is reported that hybrid technology will soon be introduced into the SUV series, which may also benefit the next generation of Yaris in the future.
