Toyota Avensis facelift to be unveiled in Frankfurt – Prius full-hybrid family also to take opening bows

Toyota will be unveiling its revised Avensis at Frankfurt – changes to the British-built sedan include revised exterior styling incorporating a frontal treatment following Toyota’s new design language. The interior also gets a rework, with improvements to be had in terms of ‘look and feel’ quality, and the company, while keeping mum on details, adds that strategic changes have been made to the powertrains and driving dynamics. Toyota boldly claims that these changes represent the largest mid-life investment it has made for any model.

    At first when UMW announced news to replace the Altis, I was hoping the Avensis could come into the market and replace the Altis, all because it’s one handsome car.

    Anyway, anyone notice that the facelift design resembles those on the FT-86? That could mean the FT-86 is not far!!

  • 2008/09 toyota avensis is very good car inside out. driven both 2.0 cvt and 2.2 diesel. i like the contemporary shape of the car and how it rides. comfortable and quite powerful at the same time. i wonder why its not introduced here. da size is perfect between altis n camry. not too big n not too small. =)
