Test details:
The Toyota Yaris hatchback was redesigned for the 2012 model year. Side ratings are assigned by the Institute based on a test conducted by Toyota as part of side crash test verification. The Yaris 4-door sedan was not redesigned for 2012, its final model year. Therefore the side ratings detailed below apply only to the 4-door hatchback.
