I keep reading this 99bhp 12sec, 0-60 second rubbish! I have owned a Yaris Hybrid Sport for 3 years now. These are facts :- It will out perform any 1.4 NA car. The off line performance 0-40 -50 mph is astounding I have left a Nissan skyline on the A322! I can understand why Toyota don't tell people because it's just not PC it's not designed to be a performance car!! If the GR goes like my other Yaris I'll be even more pleased. It was a bit sloppy into fast corners yes. The thing is from zero it has yes 99bhp plus 45 bhp extra electric boost massive torque and in race mode sorry out of 'ECO' it flys off the line! I guess I'm probably the only person to ever push a Yaris Hybrid past 70! I bet the guys at GR know the true figures but are never going to tell! I think is one of the best kept secrets known!

Hopefully mine wll be delivered in the next few weeks, I need to run it in first but will let all you non believers find out what it's really like.

Oh I did I mention the mpg.... smile
Nah this is clearly a troll post.

A 1.5 Toyota Yaris Hybrid Sport does 0–62 in 11.80s if you're lucky

There is not a single Skyline I can think of slower than that on paper.
