The All New Toyota Avensis

I really expected something to happen with the new Toyota Avensis, and sooner. Not sure if the Japanese heard me or not, but the thing is they’ve announced the new model at the Paris Motor Show looking better than ever. The engines have always been a great point for Toyota and the new Avensis won’t let you down.

There will be three petrol engines available - a 1.6 liter that outputs 132 hp, a 1.8 liter that has 147 hp and the best of them all the 2.0 liter Valvematic that delivers 152 hp and 196 Nm torque at 4,000 rpm. And two diesel units - a126 hp 2.0 liter D-4D engine and the 150hp 2.2-litre D-4D (lovely). Add to all these the 6-speed automatic transmission and we may have a new success from Toyota. Great job! - via AutoBlog
