Japan sales start for new turbocharged Auris
08 Apr 2015|4,225 views
The partially redesigned Toyota Auris, offering a newly developed turbocharged engine and a brand new safety package, is now on sale in Japan. Featuring significant interior and exterior changes, this latest redesign advances the Auris brand by building on the individuality and performance that has defined the model since its first generation. In addition, Toyota has combined the best of the model's new features by creating the high-end 120T grade. Across all grades, Toyota aims to sell 1,000 units per month in Japan.
Thermal efficiency has been improved by using an exhaust manifold integrated with the cylinder head, a larger variable angle VVT-iW (intake side), and an advanced D-4T fuel injection system.
Additionally, the Stop & Start idling-stop function improves fuel efficiency. At 19.4km/L, fuel efficiency exceeds the Japanese government's 2015 fuel economy standards by at least 10 percent. Additionally, emissions are at least 75 percent lower than the 2005 standards set under the Japanese government's Approval System for Low-emission Vehicles.
Driver experience is further enhanced other standard features such as cruise control, heated driver and passenger seats, as well as an auto anti-glare rear view mirror. As part of a multi-faceted approach to support safety on the road, the recently-announced Toyota Safety Sense C package uses both a laser radar unit and a camera to achieve high reliability and performance. The package comes standard on 1.2-litre turbo and 1.8-litre models, and is available as an option on 1.5-litre models.
The Auris achieves a greater sense of presence on the outside thanks to an upper grille garnished with chrome to accentuate the head lights, a lower grille that expands to the corners of the bumpers, and horizontal rear bumpers. Additionally, a 55mm increase in overall length gives the Auris more stylish, flowing proportions.

The 120T grade comes with Toyota's newly developed 1.2-litre direct-injection turbocharged engine (8NR-FTS), and also offers an extensive range of comfort-enhancing features. Peak torque is generated at a wide range of between 1,500rpm and 4,000rpm. This, combined with the Super CVT-i gearbox brings out the best in the engine, ensures responsive acceleration and smooth, exhilarating performance.
