Toyota releases powertrain details for updated Auris
02 Jun 2015|5,170 views
Today, in the face of limited and expensive competition, the broad Auris model range remains a unique proposition. The Hybrid model currently accounts for more than 50 percent of all Auris sales in Western Europe, a mix expected to grow further over the next few years. Since the hybrid powertrain was made available in the Auris range, more than 200,000 units have been sold, and today, the Auris is the best-selling hybrid in Europe.
The Auris Hybrid represents outstanding value for money. CO2 emissions of just 79g/km and combined cycle fuel economy of only 28.5km/L offer customers significant tax incentives and exceptionally low running costs. The 1.8-litre VVT-i petrol engine and electric motor generate a maximum power output of 134bhp, equipping the Auris Hybrid with a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 10.9 seconds and a maximum speed of 180km/h.
An all new 1.2-litre direct-injection turbocharged engine joins the existing petrol lineup. The 1,197cc 16-valve four-cylinder direct-injection turbo petrol engine offers a level of performance similar to that of a 1.6-litre engine, while its fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are perceptibly lower. The lightweight, highly compact unit features numerous sophisticated technologies, including direct-injection, enhanced Dual Variable Valve Timing-intelligent Wide (VVT-iW), a high tumble port cylinder head with an integrated exhaust manifold, a lightweight valve train system, a variable control oil jet system and a resin intake manifold and intake pipes.
The new engine has a maximum power output of 114bhp, and develops an impressive maximum torque of 185Nm from 1,500 to 4,000rpm. Mated to a six-speed manual transmission, this equips the new Auris 1.2 with a highly competitive 0-100km/h acceleration time of 10.1 seconds, and a top speed of 200km/h. At the same time, the new engine returns average fuel consumption figures of 21.2km/L, and generates CO2 emission of only 109g/km, offering customers considerable cost of ownership benefits. Both engines in the range now meet Euro 6 emissions regulations.
New exterior styling features a redesigned front and rear, giving the Auris a more prestigious and sophisticated road presence. On board, the sensory quality of the cabin has been significantly enhanced through a redesigned dashboard, premium quality surface and trim elements, a 7.0-inch touch screen with capacitive switchgear and a new 4.2-inch colour TFT multi-information screen.
The 2015 Auris range further benefits from suspension and steering revisions designed to improve ride comfort, handling and driver involvement. And numerous measures have also been introduced to reduce the transmission of Noise, Vibration and Harshness (NVH) into the cabin.
