I have the facelifted version and do not recognize the lights issue. Leg room is a problem indeed, and the horn is a bit underwhelming to say the least. But what I find most annoying overall is the complete lack of horsepower. This particular electric motor would be more at home in a kitchen blender than in a car. Lastly, the springs are too soft. I'm using a small trailer to carry my camping gear if I go camping, because if I use a roof box and the trunk all that gear will make the rear sag way down despite being under the car's rated weight limit. Other than that, after 220000km the biggest repair bill I've seen was €60 for reinstalling a fog light (that is not counting regular maintenance, oil, tires, ...). That is actually the key reason for me to own this car.

Agree with everything you say. Was driving my Auris at dusk yesterday and had to check the headlights were on and not just the parking lights. Time for an upgrade maybe. I’m quite soft-spoken so the weedy horn suits my personality. The legroom isn’t a huge problem for us as we rarely have backseat passengers. The Honda Jazz we had previously was like a limo in the back, by comparison. Over all, I think this video and your review of the Auris are very fair and a good summary of owning one.

Great video agree with the stuff your saying new e10 fuel I’m getting 52mpg but that’s driving country roads at 40 miles per day. 142,000miles on the clock and my sway bar snapped and drop links( definetly the roads I’m driving on and I came of the road on ice and mounted a curb) but all I’ve had is changing breaks and hand break. One thing Advise for anyone getting one. Check the service I’ve been had from the dealer to many times no oil change health checks with ambers next time they’re in the green don’t understand how brakes can get thicker over time

Auris 2013 here, I'm glad I have the bi-xenon lights ! I never noticed about the horn (I never use it), I had to go and check. And yeah, it sounds ridiculous 😅 I thought about changing car few months ago, since mine is 200,000 km but no, I actually realized I LOVE it and I want to keep her. I bought it second hand 4 years ago, with 100,000 km and I never had any issue, and I'm lucky she has every possible equipment, from panoramic roof to xenon lights, rain and light sensors, heated seats, leather, rear camera, JBL audio system... she even parks herself better than I do 😅 I can't really find one with the same equipment anymore 🤔 So I'll keep it few more years, I'm glad I don't have to deal with a clutch, a belt or expensive shite like that ! And I agree with your 6th point... I went on holiday in Austria, in the mountain the sound was ridiculous 😅

Great video. I’ve been running a 06 Prius for 4 years, it’s a fantastic car. Having no rev counter was odd at first but now I don’t miss it. Closing in on 300,000km and the hybrid battery has given up the ghost. Just need to decide whether to fix it or scrap it now.

I love the dashboard. I bought my auris a few days ago and I love it :-)

I'm very impressed by the reliability. 100,000 miles with no major issues sounds epic. I've never owned a car that didn't have at least one major issue before 50,000 miles.

I had Mini's in the 1960's. The problem was solved by Air horns.(not like Truck). You just answered your own problem, get a PRIUS, loads of room, GET A PRIUS!! Both have Cruise control! The new Corolla is smaller than your Auris.

Some of you issues I now really goed. One of the first points, I install a double horn. The sound is more powerful. At this moment I also can say that I have no special issues at 190k of kilometers.

Hii i have seen your video and i liked it. i am about to buy Toyota Auris hybrid 2018 the warranty of the battery is about to over and if i will buy it it recovered. 5 years on the road with 58000 km it should be a problem? I mean for the battery 5 years its a lot

The lights move with the steering and when the car is turned on, whats the name of that type

I have the optiwhite bulbs in my auris and honestly they are perfectly fine. Also with mixed driving each day I’m only getting 51mpg, I don’t even floor it so I don’t know what’s going wrong there but the best I’ve gotten in a trip is about 56 while driving like miss daisy

I love him, and what interesting the horn 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 white colour is more ignoring than the horn for me, and what men really hate ??? With a golf from 50.000 euros broken on the side on the road 😉… or Audi, to many experience with VAG problems..

I can live with the horn but everything else I agree with you

What type of headlamp is used in the 2014 auris

Can I add No. 7? Why, when we had the technology to put a man on the moon 52 years ago, did Toyota fit that stupid clock which you have to alter for daylight savings twice a year. Surely a couple more lines of code in the centre screen could have put a clock there but I agree - great car.

This guy is just waffling 😂

OMG the horn!! My wife’s car is actually worse, pitched even higher.

So? ....... The car is fine and you found something to wine about ! That's not easy with a Auris! 🤣

Nonsense nothing wrong with the clock it works? Who looks at a car clock anyway, get yourself a wristwatch, in a Mercedes it probably costs a grand to get one replaced,

And no mention about hedgehog's😇

And this guy complaining with horn and the light

If you dont like the car, buy something else. And your steering wheel is on the wrong side ;-)

5 things well the room? Not everyone is over 6 feet tall, (yes feet and gallons ) we're not Europe! Horn ? I've never use it only idiot's do it, headlights I've got no problem with my Auris Headlights, the dashboard what's wrong? Perfectly Ideal for Me In fact I believe for the car bracket it fine, Ever seen the focus. blind spots? I honestly haven't an Issue With seeing out the windows, I'm not Aware of anyone claiming he crashed into a ditch on account of Visibly, No mister Endfloat, I believe your nit picking on A grand scale in fact I would say I haven't got a single Issue nothing Id change about the car I believe you should get yourself perhaps a Range Rover if it's Perfection in a vehicle your after, corse that's going to cost you a lot more money and a huge money pit into the bargain!

Wow..nose.
