Toyota UK has released more photos of both sedan and touring versions of the upcoming third generation Toyota Avensis, set to be unveiled to the public at the 2008 Paris Motor Show. The new Avensis certainly looks very sharp and muscular, a nice change compared to the rather dated look of the outgoing second generation model.
The new Toyota Avensis was styled at Toyota’s ED2 design studio in the south of France and will be built in the UK at Toyota’s Derbyshire plant. It will feature equipment such as Steering-assist Vehicle Stability Control (VSC+), Adaptive Front Light System (AFS) and Pre-Crash Safety System (PCS).
The interior controls and meter panel illumination follows the goldish theme of modern Toyotas such as the Auris. More detailed specs to be revealed at the motorshow.
