[edit] Yaris vs. Yaris Liftback, etc.
Yaris liftback (Vitz) and the Yaris sedan (Belta) are not the same car. The template should really reflect this, no? Av 01:24, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
- That only applies to the current generation Yaris. The previous generation hatchback and sedan were, effectively, the same car but in different body styles. There is a disambiguation page for that anyway. No need for the template change.Butterfly0fdoom 20:08, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Point taken, but Yaris still leads to Belta - I guess this should be switched to go to the disambiguation page. Furthermore, the Yaris hatch was available for the 2006 model year in Canada and Mexico. Av 22:32, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Hmm, the Echo sedan and hatchback seem to be _different_ cars - see Toyota Vitz vs. Toyota Platz. Av 03:31, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
- Toyota, for their Japanese lineup, tends to give a new name to a different body style of the same car. If you look at the first generation Vitz and the Platz, the only difference is the body style and the front end. Everything else is the same. Only now do the hatchback and sedan have total separation in design. But that's what disambiguation pages are for. Butterfly0fdoom 11:24, 19 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2009 models
Attn: Regardless of what Wikipedia's policy regarding this template is, 2009 models haven't been announced for any Toyota models yet (It's not even calendar year 2008). Do NOT change this template based on rumors or guesses. --butterfly0fdoom
- The timeline currently suggests that all models except the Corolla and Matrix have been cancelled for 2009. Is that true? --Vossanova o< 15:00, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
- In that case, I think a decision needs to be made for the sake of organization: drop 2009 from the template until information on all vehicles can be confirmed, or allow the extension into 2009 for the cars that can be safely assumed to be continued. This article says that the Solara will be dropped while the remaining cars will stay the same for the new model year. 71.139.185.31 (talk) 11:04, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
