Have you ever considered what it's like to advance through any mainstream vehicle brand's model hierarchy? In addition to the apparent aspect of size, you also receive increased comfort and sophistication.

Superior comfort is something that everyone values, regardless of whether they are vehicle enthusiasts or not. For this reason, people frequently update to more recent models.





The truth is, though, that you don't need to purchase most costly models in order to enjoy the utmost in luxury. The 2023 Toyota Yaris, which we believe to be the most comfortable hatchback currently offered in Malaysia, is yours for as little as RM 88,000.So what precisely qualifies as comfort in a car? It basically comes down to three factors: the comfort of the seats, the noise level within the vehicle, and the suspension's smoothness.

NVH, or noise, vibration, and harshness, is a word frequently used when discussing a car's refinement. In other words, the automobile feels more upscale and cozy when the NVH is decreased.





Most of the time, NVH is evaluated subjectively, which means that we experience it with our senses—especially our ears and bums. Although sound level meters allow us to measure noise objectively, they do not take sound frequency into account.

Noise and its frequency have an impact on our perception of it. While lower frequencies eventually become less annoying and tiresome, higher frequencies may appear louder. Accordingly, our perception of a car's quietness is subject to subjectivity.





The chairs are a crucial component of comfort in addition to NVH. Uncomfortable seats can ruin a car, but good seats can make one. The cherry on top is a seat that provides ideal lumbar, side, and thigh support, among other benefits.

The 2023 Toyota Yaris performs admirably in each of the three major comfort categories. The Yaris's cabin insulation is a good quality; according to our testing, the average noise level is comparable to that of vehicles in a higher class. Long-distance travel is subjectively less taxing because the general frequency of noise is lower when moving.





The suspension system of the Yaris is expertly calibrated to readily mitigate the worst conditions found on Malaysian roads. The Yaris' perfect damping produces a wafting sensation that is often only found in high-end or luxury vehicles.

The seating of the Yaris is also uncompromised. In addition to being cozy, the seats provide support. The seat design prevents pressure spots that could cause backaches on lengthy trips, and the side bolsters keep you comfy without being unduly forceful.





Though the two-tone color options and sporty aero kit on the lower apron of the car demonstrate your sense of style, the Yaris is more than just a comfortable automobile. More control is provided when you're feeling energetic thanks to the addition of paddle shifters.

The Yaris boasts a plethora of modern technological amenities in addition to comfort and design. Featuring Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, the recently unveiled 9-inch display guarantees smooth smartphone connectivity.




With the help of the Vehicle Telematic System, you can follow your Yaris using a smartphone, and the 3D PVM (Satellite Birds Eye View) makes parking easy for everyone. It also comes with an RFID tag and a DVR (Digital Video Recorder), which is almost a requirement these days.

The fact that both versions come equipped with the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) ADAS suite and seven airbags as standard further demonstrates Toyota's dedication to keeping you safe and connected while driving. Pre-collision systems (PCS), lane departure alerts (LDA), and blind-spot monitors (BSM) with rear cross-traffic alerts (RCTA) are the components of TSS.





Beyond only the vehicle, the Yaris embodies the essential principles of Toyota, including unwavering dependability, a vast network of dealers and service providers, and a 5-year warranty. A Yaris is more than simply a car; it's a representation of your success and sense of style.

Toyota Malaysia is now running a short-term promotion for RM 7,500 to sweeten the deal. When combined with a low payment plan that starts at RM 658, the Yaris becomes not just a comfortable and stylish option, but also a fantastic bargain.





Spend some time getting to know the Yaris, and chances are you'll come to the same conclusion we did: it's an excellent hatchback under RM 100,000 that blends comfort, style, and a ton of amenities.
