The TOYOTA AURIS (2012-15) 5DR TOURING SPORTS 1.8 VVT-H SS 136 EU5 ICON CVT AUTO is a compact family estate, combining a practical five-door body with Toyota’s petrol-electric hybrid system. In the UK market, it offers an efficient alternative to larger estates, while providing more luggage room than the Auris hatchback and easy automatic driving for everyday journeys. It suits commuters and small families seeking low-effort town driving, useful carrying space and relaxed longer trips. The hybrid setup can help reduce fuel use in stop-start traffic, and the CVT automatic keeps driving simple. Against rivals such as the Ford Focus estate, its hybrid powertrain is a distinctive selling point. Mycarcheck.com recorded 21 look-ups across seven distinct VINs, a modest sample. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £7,000, mileage of 103,000, annual mileage of 11,000 and around 2.5 previous keepers, useful context when checking an Auris’s condition, history and price.
