British International Motor Show - Toyota

Self-parking Prius
One of Toyota's stars is a self-parking Prius.

The idea is that you manoeuvre the car parallel to where you want to park and the Prius, via an array of technical wizardry and cameras, will then do the fiddly stuff for you.

Be sure to check it out when you are at the show – because the cars are electric, the self-parking Priuses will be in action throughout the day.

Aygo on and on
There are a couple of Aygo concepts here, too. First up is the Aygo DJ. Traditional cars come with a stereo, but with the DJ the car is the stereo – complete with a couple of record decks in the boot.

The Aygo 4 Sports is an open-top in a kind of Mini Moke-style.

What about real cars?
Well, there is the Yaris T-Sport. It's still a concept and we got a first look at it during the Geneva Motor Show in the spring.

A 1.8-litre petrol engine powers this performance version of the supermini. If it gets a good reception at the show it could well make it into production.

Less likely, perhaps, is the RAV4 Sport, which has a diesel engine tuned to 201bhp, lowered suspension and 21-inch alloy wheels.

The face-lifted Avensis, complete with new 175bhp diesel range-topping model, is also on show for the first time in the UK.
