Front wiper blades are usually 26 inches on the driver’s side and 16 inches on the passenger side, with an 11-inch rear blade on models that have a rear wiper.
The Toyota Yaris comes in several regional variants and model years, so blade sizes can vary. The guidance below covers common configurations and offers practical tips to confirm the exact size for your car.
Front wiper blade sizes by market and year
This list covers typical front-blade sizes for commonly sold Yaris hatchbacks in North America and Europe. Use it as a starting point, but verify for your exact year and trim.
- Most North American 2006–2013 Yaris hatchbacks: driver blade 26 inches, passenger blade 16 inches.
- Most North American 2012–2019 Yaris hatchbacks: driver 26", passenger 16".
- European Yaris hatchbacks (approximately 2009–2019): driver 26", passenger 16".
- Recent Yaris Cross variants may use different sizes depending on market; front blades are commonly 26"/16", but check the manual.
Conclusion: For the typical Yaris hatchback, the front blades are 26 inches and 16 inches, with some market-specific variations. Always confirm against your exact year/trim.
Rear wiper blade size and availability
Not all Yaris models feature a rear wiper. If your Yaris has a rear wiper, the common size is about 11 inches, though some versions use 12 inches or may not have a rear wiper at all. Check your model’s specifications or measure the blade.
- Yaris hatchbacks with rear wiper: commonly around 11 inches.
- Some European trims or special editions use a 12-inch rear blade; verify on your model.
Conclusion: Front blade sizes stay as noted above; rear blade size varies by model and may be absent on certain trims.
How to verify or replace your blades
If you’re unsure of your exact size, these steps can help ensure you buy the correct blades:
- Check the owner’s manual or the official Toyota parts lookup for your exact year and trim.
- Measure the current blades: blade length is usually printed on the blade or you can measure end-to-end along the glass edge.
- Shop for a blade set labeled for Toyota Yaris and select the correct front sizes (typically 26" and 16") and the rear size if applicable (commonly 11").
Conclusion: When in doubt, bring the old blades to a parts retailer or use the car’s year/market lookup to ensure a precise match.
Why blade sizes matter
Using the correct blade size ensures full windshield coverage, proper contact with the glass, and effective wiping in rain or grime. An ill-fitting blade can cause streaks, chatter, or faster wear.
Summary: For most Toyota Yaris hatchbacks, expect front wiper blades of 26 inches on the driver’s side and 16 inches on the passenger side, with an 11-inch rear blade if your model has a rear wiper. Sizes can vary by market and year, so always confirm via the owner’s manual or an official Toyota parts lookup. If you’re unsure, measure the current blades or consult a parts specialist to ensure a precise match.
