Why did they stop making Toyota Echos?

Despite rocketing to the sales charts in 2000 (mainly due to the success of its predecessor, the Toyota Tercel), Echo sales fell through the roof in 2004, with only 4,000 units sold to American buyers. Toyota pulled the plug in 2005, but the Echo remained in production worldwide as the Yaris.

How long does a Toyota Echo last?

200,000 miles
I’ve got almost 200,000 miles on my Echo and I’ve had to do nothing beyond expected repairs and maintenance. It’s a small car, but that is part of what I love about it — so easy to maneuver, and has the best turning radius of any car I’ve driven. It doesn’t have the power of a larger car, but that’s fine for me.
