The 2020-onwards MXP generation has received specification changes over time. Do not assume a current grade or wheel package applies to every earlier vehicle; confirm build year, grade, drivetrain, placard and current wheel.
Yaris, Yaris Cross and GR Yaris are different vehicles
The normal Yaris hatch, Yaris Cross SUV and GR Yaris performance model require separate fitment checks. Use the Toyota Yaris guide only for the hatch; do not copy its tyre sizes to Yaris Cross.
