2011 Toyota Auris Hybrid is designed to be more upbeat

Auris is designed to be more upbeat and upscale than other compact cars. It is inspired by Toyota Yaris design. The brand new model, which is designed and manufactured in Europe, uses Toyota performance parts to boost its functionality. With fresh design and powerful dynamics, Auris is expected to lure more customers and steal a slice of market share from Volkswagen Golf and Alfa Romeo 147.

The 4x4 specialist last month confirmed that a production version of its exciting LRX concept will go into production at the company's Halewood plant in Merseyside. The latest Landy's 'green' credentials will be sealed by an electric-drive rear axle coupled to a 2-litre turbodiesel engine, capable of running on bio-diesel. CO2 output is predicted to be around 120 g/km, putting the 4x4 in one of the lowest road tax bands.

Altogether this battle for the Brit hybrid crown is a great sign that the UK-based car industry is weathering the economic downturn and looking forward to the cutting edge of new motor technologies.

Prius V and the Prius C concept displayed at Detroit Auto Show 2011



Toyota displayed at Detroit Auto Show 2011 the first derived of their Prius hybrid mode, a minivan with generous interior, keeping the same drive train.

Just like they promised, Toyota unveiled at Detroit Motor Show 2011 the first member of their Prius hybrid family. The Japanes hybrid minivan is 182 inches long, 70 inches wide, 62 inches high and has a wheelbase of 109 inches. Toyota Prius V has a fuel mileage of 42 mpg in the urban jungle, 38 mpg on the highway and an average of 39.8 mpg.

Enter the Prius V and the Prius C concept (shown)--When asked, she pulled up the stats which showed the Toyota Prius V gaining 50% in cargo volume. Bottom line for the Prius V is that the hybrid format for Toyota is working; and now it’s proving to be scalable.
Truth is, there’s room for technical variations, because the automotive market itself is so varied--The main message for either model is clear, though: Toyota is expanding the marketability of its Prius line of cars.

The Detroit auto show is the main stage for Toyota’s rebirth after a rather compromising period. The Japanese company has big plans for the next couple of years: introducing seven new hybrid cars, updating four existing versions and a fully electric vehicle. Toyota’s popular Prius hybrid, sold in close to 1 million copies since its release in 2000, is the foundation for this new generation of cars. GM’s Chevy Volt, direct competitor, tops Prius’s 13 miles electric power range significantly, with a range of 40 miles.

however, according to Bob Carter, general manager and Toyota Division Group vice-president, the Prius offers a faster recharge, less weight which means better economy when in hybrid mode, and a lower price.

The base model has steel wheels and black door handles. The higher models have alloy wheels and door handles that are the same color as the body of the car. The limited edition model has a grille insert that is made of chrome. The sport model has optional run-flat tires so there is no longer any need to place a spare tire in the tailgate of the RAV4.
