The system also has Bluetooth connectivity and USB connection for MP3 players.


A Toyota GB spokesman said Netherlands-based TomTom developed the bespoke system in conjunction with Toyota Motor Europe in Belgium.


The unit is installed in a double-DIN opening in the modified centre stack; a similar fitting is used for the OEM audio systems available for Yaris models sold in North America while other European Yaris models have different factory-fitted audio units or a combined monochrome-screen navigator/audio system.


Toyota said the removable TomTom satellite navigation unit is both a first in the B segment and exclusive to the brand.
