Depends on the trim and years I guess, I have a Rav4 hybrid and they have more power better fuel economy obviously and a different and better eCVT compared to the gas models.
Your latter point certainly is a negative and having to replace the battery but less stress on the engine throughout the lifetime of the vehicle.
At least on the Prius, it has power modes, one of which (and the default) severely drops the power and throttle response, to save energy. If the Yaris was in eco mode, or something equivalent, that might explain it.
If you can get by with just purely electric, it would also save maintenance, since you'd be barely running the engine at all (or not at all), and wouldn't need to regularly flush the fluids like you would with a car that's been sitting a while.
That's not the best for the engine to never have it running but if it turns on or is used for a fraction of the driving it means the same. My hybrid has 34k miles and the engine has probably only been running for like 27k of those. Running errands to the store or shops a few blocks away the engine turns on for like a minute.
