The Toyota Yaris (Japanese: トヨタ ・ヤリス Toyota Yarisu?) is a subcompact car produced by Toyota since 1999, replacing the Starlet.

Between 1999 and 2005, some markets received the same vehicles under the Toyota Echo name. Toyota has used the "Yaris" and "Echo" names on the export version of several different Japanese-market models. The name "Yaris" is derived from "Charis", the singular form of Charites, the Greek goddesses of charm and beauty.

First generation models were marketed between 1999 and 2005 under the "Yaris" and "Echo" names depending on the market. Hatchback, coupe, and sedan body variants were offered.

Second generation models have been marketed since 2005 under the "Yaris" name worldwide. Hatchback and sedan body styles were offered. The hatchback version was discontinued in early 2014 for Asian markets.

Third generation models have been marketed since 2011 under the "Yaris" name worldwide. Originally available only as a hatchback, a sedan body style arrived in 2013.

Since 2013, a different version of the Yaris, based on the Toyota Vios (XP150), was launched for the Asian market – including China, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan, Vietnam and the Philippines.

The Chinese market also released the regular XP90 Vitz-based Yaris produced locally by the GAC Toyota joint venture. China also sells the Vios-based model as the Yaris L, available in 1.3- 6NR-FE and 1.5-liter 7NR-FE versions. The facelift Yaris L was unveiled at the April 2016 Auto China. In 2016, a facelift was conducted by the GAC Toyota joint venture, and a sedan version was added based on the Toyota Vios sedan.
