Launching in Japan, the new Auris comes in a few trim levels, with the most efficient package being the 1.5-liter model with Super CVT-i transmission and optional Toyota Stop & Start idling-stop function for 19.2 kilometers per liter (45 miles per gallon) on the lenient JC08 test cycle. All of the 1.5-liter models qualify for incentives under the Japanese government's Green Taxation System. The 1.8-liter model uses improved engine technologies to reach 38 mpg on JC08. Start/stop is not available on the 1.8-liter models.
On the style front, the new Auris is 55 mm (2.16 inches) lower, 30 mm (1.18 inches) longer and has new bumper openings for improved aerodynamics. An RS trim line in the 1.8-liter model offers seats with exclusive red stitching and an optional panoramic roof window. The Auris will start at 1,710,000 yen ($21,515 U.S. at today's exchange rates). Toyota says it expects to sell 2,000 Auris models a month in Japan.
The new Auris is 4,275mm long, 1,760mm wide and 1,460mm tall, which represents an increase in length of about 30mm and a reduction in height of 55mm. Width is exactly the same as the outgoing model, as is the 2,600mm wheelbase. Loadspace has improved by 6 litres for the regular Auris, and by a whopping 127 litres for the Auris Hybrid, which means the hybrid system has been packaged into the car better. Both the Auris and Auris Hybrid now share the same 360 litre load space.
