Overall Rating
Toyota Auris:
The Toyota Auris is a compact car derived from the Corolla, manufactured and sold by Toyota. Introduced in 2006, the first generation three/five-door hatchback shared the platform with the E150 series Corolla, while the second generation five-door hatchback and estate car called "Touring Sports" uses the E180 platform. The "Auris" name is based on the Latin word for "gold", "aurum".
In Europe, Toyota positioned the Auris as the replacement for the Corolla hatchback, while the saloon car version continued with the Corolla nameplate. Starting with the E210 model, the Auris nameplate was discontinued and used the Corolla nameplate instead, except for Taiwan, retained the Auris nameplate for the hatchback version until July 2020....(Read more on Wikipedia)

2.0 D-4D (90 Hp) Verdict:
Performance Verdict
This 2.0-liter diesel, despite its displacement, offers rather modest performance, feeling underpowered for its size and resulting in leisurely acceleration.
Fuel Economy
Fuel economy is decent, but not outstanding given the low power output for a 2.0L diesel. The 1.4 D-4D offers better efficiency for similar power.
Pros and Cons:
Pros:
- • Excellent reliability record
- • Good fuel economy, especially hybrid models
- • Comfortable ride quality
- • Practical and spacious interior
- • Strong resale value
Cons:
- • Uninspiring driving dynamics compared to rivals
- • Some engines lack refinement at higher RPMs
