The original links are from Toyota UK blog, so it is the version that will be sold in both Japan and Europe (not just the EU). Obviously there may be some differences between these two markets.

The US Yaris is based on the Mazda 2, and is built by Mazda for Toyota.

So can we assume price increase over current yaris will be up to 20% ?

If there's a price increase it will be much less than 20%. Like from Auris to the new Corolla.

The TNGA platform means less cost due to standardisation of parts, tools and machines, less time and money to develope the model. Being an almost global model, further reduced the cost. The 1KR-FE is a very popular and cheap engine, with several years in the market. The new M15A engine shares a lot of parts with the M20A, meaning also less cost to design and manufacture. It's meant to be an affordable car.

@JoaoM i agree still new Yaris has some new tech plus compared too previous generation it has quite more equipment. On paper it has better tech than corolla,RAV4 and Prius
