TOYOTA has added a new SR 1.8-litre flagship to the Yaris supermini range, which is powered by a new 131bhp engine.

Suspension and steering have been re-tuned for sportier performance, and the £12,995 three-door motor gets 17-inch alloy wheels, a body-styling kit, vehicle stability control, and traction control as standard.

It went on sale in Britain this month.
