^ not a Yaris but I did get a Fit years ago when I was in the same situation where I knew I’d drive 80+kms a day and don’t regret it. They’re actually quite useful and fun to drive. They look better with light mods than a Yaris could too IMO.

Keep in mind though that with a little HB you can expect more road noise and less comfort compared to even a small sedan. If you have to take a lot of work related calls at highway speeds, the road noise can drive you nuts. Ultimately that’s what made me trade in the Fit. I needed the ability to have clear/good conversations on the road very often.

Drive everything in your price range to see what suits you best. That said, my advice would be that if you don’t care too much about performance with this purchase and just need a reliable/economical ride, buy Japanese.
