New Model Of Avensis 2006

[Jose Manuel]

We cease production of old model on around 25th April and will build facelift models only after that date

Thank you Crazy.

As I told some days ago, I've just purchased an Avensis Wagon 2.0 wwti in Spain (date Mar 18th). Surprising on 15th April the delivery date was 14th June, but 3 days later it went to 14th July (3 days = 1 Month)

The salesman told me two weeks ago (30th April) that my car is going to be the new one because from 1st April every car entrying in the production line will be new ones.

My questions are:

May I trust my salesman?

As no car is going to be produced untill 25th April, is the delivery date going to be that (14th July)?

Someone told me that the facelifted car is going to be showed at Madrid International Fair, is it true?

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards.

Hello everybody,

may the following pics be the good ones?

http://techdoc.toyota-europe.com/aimupload...0AIM-000679.pdf

I've got this document about "Rear Bumper Protection Plates", I don't know if it's the final facelift, but the pdf file seems to the from Toyota.

Another one:

The guy says the pic is from Toyota, and this is the source:

http://techdoc.toyota-europe.com/aimupload...0AIM-000680.pdf

I've noticed Toyota removed all documents containing photos of facelift. Is it just me or they don't want anyone to see it before it gets out. Or they didn't like what they did and introducing some other changes?

You're right, they've removed those docs. Anyway the pics are still available at the Spanish Forum:

http://www.avensisclub.com/modules/pbboard...?t=3970&start=0

And, look at this, wikipedia talks about the facelift:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_Avensis

The new Toyota Avensis will be available in june 2006. Some changes to the old model are the inclusion of lights in the side-mirrors, an mp3/wma/asl enhanced audio system, new frontbumper, the frontlights under clear glass, a new "grill" and for the D-4D versions a different grill, backlights will be much bigger, new materials and clothing within the Avensis, prepared for NAVI TNS 310, multi display with boardcomputer will be integrated in optitron display and many new details like lightsensors and the seat for the non-driver can be changed in height, many changes to the driver experience.

Starting from oktober a new set of D-4D replacement will come out.

I have just bought a used Avensis and the manual was missing so the dealer ordered one for me. The manual that has turned up is for the new facelifted Avensis.

Here are some other differences that I can see. I may be wrong on the odd one though as there is no means of seeing what is optional between models and countries.

It does handle MP3 CDs and the cassette has dissapeared.

CD changer can now be in the dashboard.

The headlights now have an automatic mode.

The manual also mentions heated seats but I don't know if that is leather only or what.

Automatic headlight leveling.

Headlamp washers.

LCD in instrument panel is larger and displays a few different error messages.

It shows turn indicators in the wing mirrors but strangely there is no mention of how to change the bulb if it blows.

But still no means of closing the windows without unlocking the doors and putting the key into the ignition.

I have an 03 TSpirit so some of the above may actually be fitted to newer models I don't know so sorry if I got something totally wrong.

Mmmmm, interesting. No keyless entry/start option? Even the new Yaris has that on offer!

Like the dashboard CD changer though-far neater option. Auto headlights not sure about-good idea but have been issues on other makes of car where the auto headlight has flashed on/off and confused other drivers (shouldn't do as flashing headlights is a warning only).

Wonder what the dash display is like-Audi graphics displays look lovely!

Ah, living in the Netherlands I happen to understand German, i'll translate it correctly because frankly the isWorldlingo translator sucks... For the record 6 types of Avensis are offered in GB, 4 in the Netherlands, 3 in germany. In this case Avensis is the basic offering, Sol is equivalent to T4 I suppose and Executive is the same as T-Spirit. (I'll report back when my Executive 2.2D-Cat facelift is in :) ).

Ah, living in the Netherlands I happen to understand German, i'll translate it correctly because frankly the isWorldlingo translator sucks...

Thanks Rik, may be that's why they say:

Changes u. Mistakes reserve, all data witthout obligation and without guarantee.

I tried to translate it into Spanish and I did not understand any word :censor:

[Bosnjo]

So, if I understood well, there won't be a display anymore on the top of the central console in Avensis and Avensis Sol. Avensis will not have a trip computer and Avensis Sol will have it but placed inside Instrument Panel. Am I right?

Jup, thats what it said. Unless the german text is wrong.

[uumode]

Not so keen on the front bumper detail...

looks like it's drawn inspiration from the centre of a pair of lips to me

anyone else see the similarity? - maybe it's to increase the EuroNCAP pedestrian rating and save a few broken knees :) It does look very friendly - sort of smiling face, and no one can acuse it of looking agressive in your rear view mirror like a BMW.

Welcome new features though.

As already pointed out.. missing keyless entry, and for me, factory fit park sensors (on higher range trim like BMW 'SE' spec.) Maybe missing run flat tyres if you view the emphasis on safety the existing cars have - ABS, brake assist, stability control, traction control and more air bags than you could ever want. Run flats just reinforce the safety aspect that the Avensis appears to be gunning for.

Also missing from the list are stainless steel wheel nuts - much needed ;)

[slimjake]

Enquired about a new Avensis today. Dealer was not interested in me test driving the existing model. Asked me to wait until new model was available as it had a new chassis so it would be a different drive. Also emphasised noise reduction on new model, with all the other extras mentioned above.

Test drive versions should be available middle of June. New diesel model will be the 175bhp already in Verso.

This weeks AutoExpress magazine has a shot of the new Avensis on the back of a lorry, plus some other info.
