Toyota Yaris Hybrid has the upgraded Toyota Safety Sense systems. It includes the Adaptive Cruise Control, which operates at speeds from zero to 180 km/h. It will bring the car to a stop if the vehicle in front comes to a halt. If the stop is less than three seconds, restart is automatic; after a longer stop, the car can be restarted with slight pressure on the accelerator, or by pressing the ACC switch. As well as improving safety, this takes much of the stress out of driving in stop-start traffic.

Thanks to Lane Trace Assist, the driver can now additionally select steering control, which automatically keeps the vehicle centred in in its lane - this is in reality Traffic Jam Assist. The system can recognise standard white and yellow road markings, and also road margins (kerbs, grass or earth), so that steering assistance is available for more of the time, both on straight roads and through bends. If the road markings are obscured, or can’t be detected, the system will follow the path of the vehicle ahead, while keeping within the traffic lane.
