The Toyota Yaris hatch has been axed in the US due to slow sales, but Toyota remains in the subcompact segment with the Yaris sedan, a rebadged Mazda 2.
Nancy Hubbell, a spokeswoman for Toyota USA, confirmed the hatch’s demise with Cars Direct.
On the face of it, it could’ve been a simple decision for Toyota as sales of subcompact cars are very weak right now, but they did go to the effort of printing out ordering guides for the car.
Hubbell told Cars Direct, “we’re working on something new for MY2020 and look forward to seeing you at the New York Auto Show for more details.”
