Toyota Auris TS Hybrid 2015 review
We drove the Toyota Auris Touring Sports Hybrid. The low additional tax liability makes this a very important car for the Netherlands.

0.1 -> In a few months it's over with
the additional tax liability benefit.
4.351 -> A lot is going to change. There'll be
no more 14% additional tax liability,
9.992 -> because hybrid cars such as this one cost more
additional tax liability starting January 1, 2016.
18.329 -> Tough luck, but this means there are
a few months left to benefit from it.
23.997 -> It's smart to look at what's on the market.
31.903 -> Toyota recently updated the Auris.
35.389 -> We're driving the car to say
something useful about it.
40.835 -> Let's start with the looks. It's not
a big change, but the nose got sharper.
46.715 -> It all got freshened up. The previous Auris
hasn't been on the market that long.
53.228 -> About three years. They updated it already.
Toyota says cars' life cycles are getting shorter.
63.384 -> Everything goes faster, they have to
produce and draw new stuff faster,
68.632 -> so that's why there's a facelift
for the Auris Hybrid already.
73.941 -> For the Hybrid the engines stayed the same.
134 hp from the same powertrain we already know.
84.003 -> It works. 0-62 mph takes a bit
over 11 seconds, if you want to.
89.098 -> You can do 109 mph on the left lane, because
that's what most of the leaseheads do.
95.618 -> Stick to the left and full throttle.
That's why the rules are changing.
100.05 -> You did this to yourselves. A shame.
106.663 -> The only disadvantage of this engine
is that when you want to accelerate,
109.96 -> you hear a lot of noise when it fires up.
114.712 -> You could take it easier on the throttle,
but you'll be slower. Choices.
122.476 -> For the rest, this car is quiet thanks to more
insulation and a better finished interior.
130.24 -> It looks good, better than the previous.
It has a sort of iPad in the middle
136.019 -> with a good working multimedia system.
139.779 -> I did have some trouble with my phone.
I don't know why, but if someone can explain
144.355 -> why it starts playing music when I go in reverse,
I'd like that. I'm curious to know the answer.
152.994 -> If someone can explain, please. In all, it's neat.
This is a rather luxurious edition.
160.08 -> It has heated seats and other fun things.
The AT's gear selector is very small.
166.7 -> I think it's weird, but that's a Toyota thing. We saw
this in the Prius and we still see it in other models.
175.429 -> Underneath the gear selector are three buttons:
EV Mode, Eco Mode and Power Mode.
179.556 -> They speak for themselves. With EV Mode you can
drive fully electric if you have enough battery power.
185.988 -> The car charges automatically, so you don't have
to plug it in when you come home at night.
193.836 -> Or during the day at work. You don't have to
go looking for chargers, so that's nice.
200.648 -> If you want to drive economically, you
can watch the meter in the dashboard.
206.167 -> It indicates whether you're being eco, or power,
or charging. It does that when you coast or brake.
214.251 -> You'll see "charge" when it charges the battery,
so you can drive electric later.
220.078 -> If you go full throttle, the indicator turns red.
That's fun, so I'll do that now.
238.178 -> You'll hear the engine, but in all, the car
is very quiet. Toyota did that well.
243.942 -> It's a bit of comfort when you do a lot of miles.
250.077 -> Speaking of a lot of miles: Toyota claims to have
compared the fuel mileage to a 308 SW diesel,
262.238 -> and they say your monthly costs are lower in
a Toyota Auris Hybrid up to 28,000 miles.
268.817 -> When you do more than 28,000 miles a year,
the fuel consumption for a 308 is better.
276.677 -> I think this is a bold statement, a large claim,
but it could be true. I don't know.
282.988 -> I don't want to do the math, but if you do,
google the real-world fuel consumption
288.19 -> of the Toyota Auris Hybrid and that of the
Peugeot 308 to discover whether it's true or not.
300.196 -> If you're interested in a Toyota Auris Hybrid,
prices start at 25,695 euros.
319.809 -> You can take a look at the option packages.
321.877 -> One that's interesting, compared to the
competition, is the Safety Sense package.
327.276 -> You'll get lane departure warning
330.183 -> and pre-collision assist so it'll warn
you when you're about to hit someone.
337.026 -> This works up to 50 mph. Most manufacturers do
it up to 31 mph, but with this one it's 50 mph.
344.837 -> Not just for urban traffic, but it helps
in slow highway traffic as well.
352.158 -> Do you need to buy a Toyota Auris Hybrid? Of
course not, but I can understand why you'll lease it.
360.479 -> It wouldn't be my choice, but I can understand
when you go to your work in traffic jams every day,
366.57 -> where you have no opportunity
to hit the throttle. Why not?
375.314 -> Made possible by
379.53 -> Subtitles - Maru's Text Support
