  • since most of the cars now produced get more than 4 stars, I think NCAP shoud upgrade the speed of a crash test

  • My name is Auris ._.''

  • Highquality car. I think that this is a new standard for the cost performance as well as new Prius.

  • The corolla was also much better known.

    I don't know why they called it the auris.

    I hope they have learnt from there mistakes and re-call the next generation family hatchback the corolla again.

    The whole world gets the corolla, but britian doesn't.

    WHY? i don't really know.

    The corolla was a name you could be proud to own. There was never anything bad with it, and when compared to other cars the corolla would beat them. The auris is not that good.

    Although it does look nice!

  • At least in the UK you have a much more attractive design for the Auris (Matrix in the US) than we received. I've tried, but I cannot develop a real appreciation for the horrible styling of this hatchback. It's sad too, because I was excited when I saw the Auris and couldn't wait for it to arrive here albeit under a different name. What a disappointment. Toyota failed me! :-(

  • I love TOYOTA's, always have driven them, always will drive them, and im only 19!.

    But for me this auris, was a decline when compared to the previous corolla.

    The interior is very cheap, (although well assembled), but the corolla had class leading plastics and an outstanding interior fit and finish.

    The corolla's 1.6 vvti was faster and more economical than the 1.6 dual vvt-i engine in the auris, (altigh the new v-matic) has made it faster and much more economical than the corollas)

  • The Auris is a fare bit bigger than the Yaris to compare them it would be like ( Auris - Focus) (Yaris -Fiesta) the one in the test looks ugly but try looking up a Auris SR180 its looks very nice has a 2.2 diesel engine and 180bhp - its not that fast 0 - 60 only 8 seconds I believe, but once rolling its as fast as any petrol hot hatch and give much better mpg,

  • Actually the diesel engine is not fast at all.

    No diesels are infact.

    This is because the engine is turbocharged already.

    take the 2.0 i-vtec in the CIVIC type -r.

    That produces 200hp + and is normally aspirated.

    Anyway what that T180 diesel is good for, is the torque it produces, but its no use when you cant get it all down on the road effectuively.

    When you quick start a diesel car, you tend to get a lot of wheelspin.

    Petrols are a perfect balance between the two

  • I have driven a typr r - nearly bought a FN2I love pretty much all Honda performance cars the type r is a true hot hatch as aposed to a cruiser that the SR180 is, the SR180 will match it in the mid range 3 rd - 4th gear which is the gear most used to overtake and is also a comfy ride. the Sr180 you can get the power down just as well as any other car, only idiots wheel spin and race off the lights thinking they look cool while everyone else just thinks what a tosser!

  • wow, I need one of those

  • Probably because it IS safe. xD

  • you are so stupid

  • its safe, look at the respons time.. i am bad in english but the car must crumble otherwise you wil slap harder away ore something

  • If thinking in thet way all cars are unsafe

    sory i do not know english well

  • Comment removed

  • you are unsafe to safeguard the common sense and inteligent.

  • Shut up...if you wanna see a pussy go to redtube

  • nice pillow

  • ho sempre stimato le toyota, grandi motori e auto molto sicure...l'auris è molto bella...il motore è favoloso...

  • Fajny i dobry samochód

  • Grandissima automobile: sicura comoda tecnologica

    Sicuramente la migliore nel suo segmento!!!

  • Should sell all the European cars that aren't sold here cars in America. They are SO much better.

  • this is a great car security

  • 0:33 "Oh, a pillow..."

    Do you even feel when you're having an accident in this car ?

  • all cars will be crushed when hitting a wall.

    the difference between a good and a bad car, is whether the passengers are safe or not, after the crash. Toyota with their modern GOA crash safety technology ensures passenger compartment to maintain its shape to keep the passengers unharmed.

  • Dumbasses like you don't know anything. Why would this car get a five star rating? For being ugly? Damn...

  • It got 5 stars. In what area does it suck?

  • The americans are so far behind japan, so If u want a safe car, buy a european car.

    All the american cars has is horsepowers, the japanese cars are far more advanced than the american junk cars.

  • Japan isnt in Europe

  • You do realize how much more strict the American "junk" cars are with their safety standards, right?

  • roflcap/ nope. Euroncap and european standards are more strict than american junk cars. You know, safest cars are from Europe(mostly Sweden-volvo),many from germany and japan. American standard is barely equal or less, NEVER better.

  • Dear cirenow,

    and here u r again, bitching about ur pointless argument! Mate i really think ur a looser in definite! i mean u surely must b Asian to support Jap brands then ur own. if so the case go back to ur profile and put the communist flag of China instead of American, and go back to ur 3rd world, so called country, c what its really like to ride a bike all day long. U pretend poor excuse of an American! ppl like u shame the great car makers of USA!

  • magnet//

    here u r again, trying to say the last word.

    Why does CHina popup? WTF. I'm Japanese and that's why i support our brands, like you support yours. Magnet you just want to say something back to me but you're just writing nonsense. This is about safety alright?

  • There must be a reason (well, I think more than one) why Toyota is now the most worldwide successful car company... I ain't japanese, and don't give a sh*t about nationalism, but I wanna tell you MY reasons... I've just put my coin in last week, buying an Auris, and trading in my Yaris. Looks like I'm a Toyota aficionado and, well, I may be, but I wasn't... 8 years driving what might be considered a cheap car, but revealed to be a little jewel, made me one. =)

  • Auris is the new name Toyota is going to use -in some countries- for the Corolla hatchback. The saloon will always stay Corolla, ergo; Auris=Corolla.

    The Yaris however, is a totally different car, it is smaller then the Auris/Corolla, and is also known as Toyota Vitz.

  • they sell the toyota yaris in the u.s. which is similiar to the Auris or maybe the same car

  • wow...thats excellent, especially for such a small car

  • @omamder7 This car is not small. Maybe it looks like a small car but did not. My dad has this, and inside is a huge. Btw sorry for my bad english i'm from croatia :)

  • bn

    jajajajajaj

  • well i have a toyota auris and it's great :)

  • Why can't they sell good cars like the Auris in the U.S.?

  • Well because 90% American's are so stupid (no offence) that they think bigger is always better (Google first sold their 100$ computer in smaller case and almost no one in u.s. bought it but then they changed it to 3x bigger case and 10k units were sold in 2weeks.)

    and doesn't every USA:n want a car that drinks at least 20litres on 100km and powerless huge engines like the dodge viper 8liter with 200hp when allmost every European 3liter engine has over 400hp and use only 10liters per 100km.

  • you are so fing stupid,, ( no offense )... All European cars are totally perfect and they give gas back every time you drive to the gas station. Plus they will give you a BJ everytime you vote for a Liberal

  • everyone buys big cars.

  • even the smart is a safe car

    even the biggers are unsafe

    take a look at the 90' production of all brands and find out the big cars bending like a can

  • they should crash at 60 mph the average speed of highways

  • Most of the time when 2 cars impact on the highway they aren't going 60 miles an hour. Most of the time they were at 60mph before they noticed they were about to crash, but most cars are slowed well below 40 before they actually impact each other.

  • If both cars are going at 40 miles per hour, then that means they should crash it at 80 mph, because it doubles. And what if the drivers don't realize that they are about to crash?

  • But it's pretty rare for two cars to crash head on, on a highway, seeing as most highways have direction seperating dividors which means that both cars are going at about the same speed. Small street, and road collisions are generally much slower.

  • in head on head colision at 60mph(or 100+km/h) no one will survey the crash

  • Am I wrong, or side-impact air bag explodes just before toyota is being hit? Take a closer look...

  • I hate Toyota Australia, the base version of Corolla only has 2 air bags! The 7 airbag upgrade is cheap but it should be included!

    Don't trust what the dealer say "it's a 5 star car" because without side + knee air bags it's only around 3-4 stars. Side crash can still easily get you killed.

  • +1 I highly agree with that. Why the hell do we australians have to suffer?

  • Suffer? I presume you Australians also get to save money by not having to pay for those extra five airbags.

  • In Norway the car comes standard equipped with 7 or something. The car also comes with a "scandinavia package" witch includes more cold isolation. But i dont understand why it only have 2 airbags in some countrys....

  • Who would drive this pice of shit anyway???

  • Except you mate.

  • Yeah, it's a great car, but only meant for people with an IQ above 50, so go back to your pickup trucks.

  • or maybe not for those who like to boast about their commodores and falcons

  • losers definitely wont drive it.

  • auris is the hatchback version of the corolla... yaris is smaller

  • holy shit..i think that guy breaks his neck in the last one...

  • Looks like the Toyota Yaris

  • The name even sounds alike.

  • looks like an environmentally friendly accident

  • auris = corolla hatch in australia

  • And Europe

  • and Turkey

  • is this the yaris in america?

  • nope...

  • This car is equal to the Toyota Corolla ;)

  • You know the most annoying thing about this is that I drive a 2007 corolla in Australia, and Its the base model so it has no side, curtain or knee airbags.

  • Strange you have no side/knee a bags cause in europe all models have 9 air bags including the entry model.you aussies left it named as corolla . but they should be the same as our auris.

  • even in Poland the simpliest model of Auris has 6 air bags

  • shit man my too sisters have toyots auris"s there a pretty sturdy car!!"

  • looks comfy

  • A Great Car...Toyota

  • why japish cars are good? They lavishly use the newest techs,in an very economical way.

  • probably because, the simplier the better...

  • good car!!! not bad in the test...

    is fast in the air bags so good chances!!

  • if thats your real name its kinda unfourtunate

  • jajajaja xD no.. its rendell..

  • thats even worse :P

  • fast deploying airbags gotta have that

  • gottta lovee toyota makes things better

  • But I prefer Nissan. :-P

  • In what way?!?!?!?!?!

  • wow i would die in my car

  • yes without airbag

  • i have a 94 ford i will die u wanna come kill me i would preciate it

  • don't even think you'd got me. lol.

  • wow.good car.

  • we're talking here about quality. &i beleive that japanese cars are 1 of the best quality& tech. &the most important is you can buy them in a very reasonable price. not like other cars very EXPENSIVE.other companys are rubbers!!! you pay much becouse you pay also the big name of a brand. expecially the old famous companys!!! we have to use our "BRAINS"!!

  • this is pretty good for a small car. japanese tech is impressive.

  • If i fucked it, it will be in one piece! :0

  • Dang, that's a tough little car!

  • let's see it from the inside

  • Man , I want a 4 door Yaris hatch !

  • wow!! thats a very safe car

  • That looked safe all except for when the pole smashed the side of the car, but what are the chances of a pole coming directly at your car at 100 mph anyway? This car is safe, but not something I would drive. I wonder how safe a Chevelle is?

  • so true

  • Toyota has good quality, like the VW Golf (look here at youtube for crash test and you will see ;o) ), but I like the VW much more, cause the design of Toyota just sucks. Every car looks like a car for women's shopping.

  • That's not womens car you are just some american and you like only some big cars. I think that is awesome car and it's looks good

  • maybe the japanese cars are not good about design compare w/ others,but for me they are not too bad of design!!!...we're talking here about quality. &i beleive that japanese car are 1 of the best quality& tech. &the most important is you can buy them in a very reasonable price. not like other cars very EXPENSIVE.other companys are rubbers!!! you pay much becouse you pay also the big name of a brand. expecially the old famous companys!!! we have to use our "BRAINS"!!

  • The back of the head of the driver hit the B pillar during frontal crash...

  • this is why the japanese rock

  • u kidding me? take a look at some american car tests, recent ones. theyre like the same results

  • yo tengo un auris el mas alto de gama con 177cv diesel yo creo que esos airbags no le sirven para nada porque con lo bien que se maneja no hacen ni falta

  • good job

  • AUDI is das geilste auto der welt scheiß toyota

  • audi suck! toyota the best!

  • looks quite safe...how many stars did it score?

  • 5 Stars

  • impressive...almost appears to defy common sense of physics

  • Škoda 120 is da best xD

    Lexus in europe ? mark of luxus and ecology :) , but still it is toyota > quality

  • Some Corolla's are pretty risky. I had a relative get into a car accident in one of those at 50+ ( on head collision ) some lady drove into her lane. The drive broke his collar bone and the passenger fractured her spine...The lady in the other corolla. Pshh. I don't know. But both cars we're totaled. The whole entire from was gone.

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA thats just comical............. Japanese cars are the best in practicality and sometimes luxury because of Lexus

  • and also with luxury in Honda, Acura, and Infinity. Also, Honda Accord won 3rd safest mid-sized car in America for 2008.

  • Toyota design is just boring.

  • Sure it is, but I haven't even seen the service garage for a year and a half ('98 corolla with 62000 miles / 100 000 km). Go and buy beautifully designed french or italian cars, then spend a few hours beside the road with a stalled vehicle, that simply stopped with a "general error"... :)

  • the toyota aruis and avensis are the safest road cars to date. thats y im getting the new avensis

  • I dont care either toyota or honda is better than the other. Honda always makes better designs than any other rivals.

  • Honda is also considerated as a premium car in safety and quality ;)

  • thats true actually thats why many car manufacturers are shit scared of Toyota and Honda. Like, if you ask any europeon car luxury manufacturer ''which car company they fear most?'' the answer is always the same 'Lexus'

  • Yeah...maybe this is true in north america...in europe and the rest of the world Lexus is just another car company... The "Lexus" cars are made for the american market, so and becuase of this they sell very well in north american...big engines in europe dont sell in big scale..

  • for exemple: Lexus by not having a diesel engine for the european market ( they just recently offer one) is failing to response a demand of the european market, witch is only almost 70% of the market share in premium cars...

  • toucego. yes i've already knew that, Lexus knew that, and Lexus is depending only on its hybrid technology for the time being. other hybrid-cars are on the way which do better than the Lexus's mpgs However, although diesel is a high demand in euro-market. Fossil fuel is not the future.

  • toucego. Lexus is starting to become popular in europe quite steadly. i wouldn't go dissin german cars and neither you should go dissin about lexus/japanese cars. i know they have certain potentials in certain area of the market in diffrnt respect. if you happen to go dissing people's taste/fav cars, otherwise u will leave me no choice. i am jus literatly fed up wiv people talking shit about other's fav cars.

  • toucego. B.S. Lexus is keeping its prestigous luxury premium market minimal in europe, you won't get much Lexus services around europe. Lexus is controlling profit gain+loss by keeping it small in europe, since its still yet to be popular over its german competitors. isn't all other cars just 'another car company'??

  • toucego. its also true even in europe, dont overlook that jus becoz Lexus in north america sells well, does not hide the fact that europe isnt telling much truth. this is what the europeon did say ''ask any europeon premium luxury automanufacturer which car company do they fear the most??''. yet there's always a problem with UK when it comes to luxury so called 'character, taste, sense', none-blandness' its the s-class is the real over-rated joke.

  • just think about the quality and the price

    Japanese cars are the best without doubt

  • güzel ama çok pahalı beaaa

  • bueno el aito tiene que ser toyota ok

  • never loved any toyota's design. but otherwise auris is a winner

  • not even the celica?

  • Wow, before, I thought Toyota wasn't the safest at crashes. But now, it's crazy well built!

  • good job toyota

  • And toyota has always been the leader in safety and petrol consumption.

  • Toyota is a JAPANESE trademark !!!!!!

  • What a big difference from a Chinese or Korean POS cars...

  • what's a big difference? you know what? Korean car is much better than chinese one. you should search more information.

  • that's true. Check out the new KIA Cee'd for example, it's a nice, safety and cheap car.

  • masa0000jpn

    5内你会改变你的想法,蠢货!

  • 哦!原来你是个日本人,那就算了,你们的市场我们没兴趣!

  • nice

  • I wish I could ride on this car not Chinese car

  • i wish my car had airbags :(

  • ugly car

  • ugly car

  • what's the speed for the test? I think it is sorta low.

  • It is at 40 miles per hour (64 kilometres per hour). And it's in slow motion.

  • The new corollas in Aus don't even come with ESP as an OPTION...an absolute disgrace Toyota Aus!

  • Unless you are driving like a complete moron to lose control of your car, ESP is uneccessary. Most have managed without it for years. It's a marketing gimmick which appeals to people who want their car to control them, not the other way around because they are hopeless drivers.

    It's like the retard who must have ABS so that they can tailgate people on the motorways because they think they will stop in time should the car ahead have to brake suddenly.

  • The fact is most drivers out there have no idea how to control a spin or avoid other hazards safely, hence ESP and ABS...there is no doubt a safe, intelligent driver has little or no need for electronic aids but the vast majority of people on the roads (at least in my experience) found their licence in a cereal box...

  • You can be smart AND crash a car. Anyone can be driving responsibly but hit ice and lose control etc. ESP has been proven to reduce single SUV crashes by half, it's not a gimmick and it doesn't control cars, its an aid that only works in emergency situations.

  • the dumbies face broke off, think wat would happen to a human!

  • when did the face come off?

  • my bad it didnt

  • Safety is more important than emissions standards.

  • ok.....ok......ok.

  • Bravo Toyota! :)

  • This car won't get 5stars in Australia. Dual airbags are standard side are optional on some models and curtain airbags are not availble. Aussie lives are worth less than Euro lives???. Shame on Toyota for selling 2nd rate shit heaps in Australia. And ugly ones too

  • So ask your lame right-wing Federal Govt to strenghten safety regulations and impose all-round airbags as standard (or at least optional). Or, if you cannot do that, choose another make/model and notice Toyota you're disgruntled. Choice is what the 'free-market' is all about, after all....

  • Really, in New Zealand Dual front, side curtain and side torso and knee airbags are standard on the Corolla. They should be in OZ to because most of the Toyotas sold in NZ are made in Melbourne.
