While some might point out the sticker is $950 more than the 2011 model, Toyota says the base 2012 Yaris will come equipped with about $1,000 more kit than the base 2011 model.
What’s more, the top of the range SE grade five-door liftback with a four-speed automatic transmission will set US buyers back $17,200, which is up only $100 over the previous version.
Onto the 2012 Sequoia adds an extra measure of towing safety with the addition of a Trailer Sway Control system as standard equipment. A new Blind Spot Monitor is standard on the Sequoia Platinum grade. The interior of all Sequoia models will now include a black upper instrumentation panel and black carpet, regardless of exterior and interior colors. One new exterior color, Sizzling Crimson Mica, replaces Cassis Pearl.
Entry into the Sequoia range starts at $40,930 for the 4x2 SR5 with a 4.6-liter V8, and ends at $61,805 with the the 4x4 Platinum grade equipped with the 5.7-liter V8, reflecting an increase of $239. Prices for the 2012 Sequoia will go into effect beginning with its start of production on August 29.
The 2012 Tundra pickups will also get black upper instrumentation panel and black carpet, regardless of exterior and interior colors. Styled steel wheels are now standard equipment on all Tundra models. Other changes that are now standard equipment include a Cold Area Package, daytime running lights and heated mirrors.
Prices for the 2012 models get a bump ranging from $340 to $390, depending on the trim level, so the entry model sells for $27,115.
Last but not least, the Sienna that was changed last year gets a $24,520 baser sticker for a front-wheel-drive base model, and will go as high as $40,570 for the all-wheel-drive Limited.
