In short
- For a Toyota Yaris you need a jump starter suitable up to about 370 to 700 CCA, depending on the engine and generation.
- Your battery has a CCA value (the cold cranking current, shown as EN on the battery label). A jump starter itself has no CCA: the number shows up to which battery CCA it's suitable. Choose a model suitable up to at least the value of your battery.
- Most petrol Yaris models and the Yaris Hybrid: the Boost Basic 3000 or Boost Mini 3750. The GR Yaris (1.6 Turbo) and the older 1.4 D-4D diesel: the Boost Pro 8250.
- Below you'll find the right jump starter for each generation and engine variant, from the Yaris 1 (1999) to the current Yaris 4.
What is CCA and why does it determine your choice?
CCA (Cold Cranking Amps) is the starting power your battery delivers in the cold. The heavier the engine and the colder it is, the more you need. The value is shown as EN on your battery. A jump starter itself has no CCA: the number shows up to which battery CCA it's suitable, so choose a model that matches the EN value of your Yaris. Want the full explanation, the standards (EN, SAE, DIN) and rules of thumb per engine type? Read what CCA is exactly and why it determines your choice. Below you'll see which jump starter is suitable for each Toyota Yaris generation and engine variant.
