In late 2016, both the Yaris and Vios received a major mid-cycle upgrade with new Dual VVT-i engines as standard on all variants: the 1.3-liter "1NR-FE" and 1.5-liter "2NR-FE" for the E and G variants, respectively. The engine upgrade also replaces the old 4-speed automatic with a new CVT transmission, while retaining the same 5-speed manual for the E variant. Interior-wise, the top-spec G variant now comes with a new MirrorLink head unit. Together with the updated standard Yaris, Toyota Astra Motor in Indonesia introduced the crossover-like variant, marketed as Yaris Heykers in late 2016. It came with different front and rear bumper designs, the addition of black overfenders, roof side ornaments and higher but stiffer TRD springs. The Yaris Heykers was discontinued in January 2018. After the production of the Yaris Heykers in Indonesia discontinued, Toyota in South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Brazil and China offers the similar concept to the Yaris Heykers, called the Yaris Cross/Crossover/X Way, which is based on the facelifted regular Yaris hatchback, while the Chinese-market Yaris X is based on pre-facelift model of the Yaris L. The Yaris ATIV sedan was launched in Thailand on August 15, 2017, using the same 1.2 liter 3NR-FE engine as the Thai market XP150 series Yaris hatchback paired to a Super CVT-i automatic tranmission, with updated bodywork and interior styling (later used in the facelifted regular Yaris). The Yaris ATIV is positioned below the Vios in its sedan lineup in Thailand and uses a new model codename NSP152. Models offered are Entry, Mid and High variants. The ATIV uses the XP150 series Vios platform and roof, but with the front end design cues from the facelifted Yaris hatchback and its own redesigned rear fascia. The Yaris ATIV was later released in other Southeast Asian countries as a 2018 model to replace the pre-facelift third generation Vios sold at that time. It was launched in Singapore on December 14, 2017 as the Vios naming instead of Yaris ATIV, albeit with a larger, more powerful 1.5 liter 2NR-FE engine. It is offered in E and G grades with 7-speed CVT.
