  • Toyota Yaris available for government employees for Rs 9.12 lakh
  • On offer in manual form and in the J variant 
  • Primarily available in a white exterior colour, though other finishes are available on request

Toyota Kirloskar Motor has announced that the Yaris sedan is now available on the Government e Marketplace (GeM). Priced at Rs 9.12 lakh (not including freight charges and location-based taxes), it is only available in manual form and in the lower-spec J variant. This version of the Yaris costs about Rs 1.96 lakh less than the version that’s on sale in Toyota showrooms across India due to government subsidies.

The Yaris J is equipped with seven airbags, ABS, EBD and brake assist, remote central locking, a manual day/night inside rearview mirror and rear parking sensors, making it one of the best equipped of its kind in terms of safety kit. On the outside, this version of the Yaris features 15-inch alloy wheels and halogen projector headlights. While it is primarily available in a Super White colour, other available colours can be supplied based on request.

On the inside, the Yaris gets two-tone interiors, though features such as adjustable front and rear headrests, front and rear armrests, power adjustable wing mirrors, power windows, a manual AC and a rear charging outlet are also expected. 

Power comes from the 107hp/140Nm, 1.5-litre petrol engine, which is paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox. The CVT automatic option for the Yaris J is not available on the GeM. 

Toyota already retails the Innova G Plus Diesel 7- and 8-seater, GX Petrol 7- and 8-seater, VX Petrol 7-seater on the GeM platform.
