Yaris Rush limited edition

Toyota has announced a limited edition model based on the Toyota Yaris YR five-door hatch.

Named the Yaris Rush, the new model packs extras worth $1000 for a price increase of $500 over the cost of the standard car.

Those extra features include 15-inch alloy wheels in lieu of the 14-inch steel wheels fitted to the standard car, a six-stack CD audio system in lieu of the standard single-disc unit, Bluetooth connectivity and front fog lights. The alloy wheels are the same design as those fitted to the Yaris YRX.

Toyota has priced the Yaris Rush at $16,890 for the five-speed manual or $18,390 for the four-speed automatic.
