I owned an older car Honda Civic model 2000. But last August 2008 I decided to change my car and buy a new one. On the first place I wanted a 4 wheeled vehicle but my wife disagree. In short I came out with a sedan car again but this time a little bit bigger to my last one. Here’s the one I found….
The new Aurion V6 is the latest thoroughbred to join the Toyota range.
Driving pleasure and performance are delivered by a new-generation 3.5 litre V6 engine. The engine incorporates the Dual VVT-I system to optimize performance and fuel economy, and reduce emissions, and delivers 268HP/6200 rpm and torque of 34.3kg-m/4700 rpm. To smoothly deliver this impressive power and torque, the engine is coupled with a new 6-speed sequential automatic transmission, which incorporates the latest technologies, including low-speed lock-up control and deceleration shift-down control. The quietness that Toyota vehicles are well known for has been achieved through reduced engine and wind noise, and the extensive use of sound insulation throughout.
The design concept of “Dynamic yet Majestic” has been adopted for the Aurion V6’s interior and exterior styling, which convey a contemporary, premium and quality image. Reinforcing its premium feel, the Aurion V6 is equipped with Smart Entry and Push-Button Engine Start systems, Dual Automatic Air-conditioning, a Rear Powered Sunshade, HID Headlamps, door mirrors with integral turn indicators, and Satellite Navigation. The interior fuses boldness with delicate details, and a spacious and luxurious image has been created through the use of new, matte surface texturing that suppresses glossiness, to reproduce the texture of leather in the instrument panel and door trims. The advantages of a front-wheel drive design have been exploited in the rear, where the floor tunnel is almost flat, providing enhanced space and comfort for passengers. The stylish exterior conceals a large trunk with a very impressive luggage capacity that can accommodate four full golf bags.
Although it is a powerful sedan, the new Aurion V6 continues the Toyota promise of an exceptionally safe and reassuring driving experience for driver and passengers. It features Anti-lock Brakes with Brake Assist and Electronic Brake-force Distribution, plus Vehicle Stability Control and Traction Control. These are complemented by an athletic Global Outstanding Assessment body structure that absorbs collision impacts for vehicle occupants and pedestrians, together with Driver and Passenger Airbags, Side, and Curtain Shield Airbags.
