2016 Chevrolet Sonic -- The Sonic excels at cruising on the highway, and it has some neat interior touches, not to mention superior power and fuel economy with the 1.4-liter turbo. Overall, it's a tough competitor for the Yaris.

2016 Ford Fiesta -- The tiny Ford Fiesta offers excellent driving dynamics and sedan or hatchback body styles. Prices are higher than the Yaris, but the Fiesta offers a nicer interior and more available equipment.

2016 Kia Rio -- Blessed with possibly the best-looking exterior and interior of any subcompact, the Rio is the runway model of this group. It's a pleasant drive, too.

Used Toyota Prius c -- The Prius c is based on the Yaris, but it runs at an impressive 50 mpg. It also offers an improved interior and more modern exterior styling. Prices are higher, though, so you may have to consider a used model.
