2014 Toyota Auris: The new Auris is 1.2 inches longer overall than its predecessor, for a still-trim overall length of 168.3, a few inches shorter than the U.S.-market Matrix. And because everyone knows how much the Europeans love wagons, Toyota also introduced the Auris Touring Sports model, which rides on the same 102.4-inch wheelbase as the regular Auris, which coincidentally, is the same wheelbase as the U.S.-spec Matrix hatch, but stretches 11 inches longer, for a 179.5-inch overall length. That puts it roughly within 2 inches of the overall length of the Prius V, which rides on a much longer 109.4-inch wheelbase.
The Auris Touring Sports and the Prius V share the same 1.8-liter, 134 net hp hybrid powertrain. The hybrid powertrain is also available on the regular Auris, in addition to a 1.4-liter diesel, and 1.3-liter and 1.6-liter gasoline four-cylinder engines. Toyota claims improved fuel economy for all models across-the-board, facilitated by a lower ride height, improved aerodynamics, and auto stop-start on the 1.3-liter gas and 1.4-liter diesel engines.
