For The Auris has a roomy cabin, with space for five. It's well priced, affordable to own and we expect it to be reliable

Against It looks dull, it's pretty dull to drive, and the refinement should be better. The cabin trim isn't as classy as the best.

This is a good car that should be painless to own, but it's in a class full of excellent ones. It's roomy and well priced, but not as desirable as the class leaders. If only it was more interesting

Auris Our pick

Toyota Auris Hatchback 1.33 VVT-i TR 5dr

A decently specified Auris with all of the kit you’ll need for everyday motoring and a couple of extra trim flourishes. Don’t bank on going anywhere quickly, however.

Buyer's notes

Target Price team says:

The Auris range starts with a 1.3 petrol that features start/stop technology for low emissions and fuel consumption, although the 1.4 turbodiesel engine is also very frugal.

The 1.6 petrol is lively, but like the smaller petrol engine, it requires plenty of revs, which can become tiresome, especially as the Auris’s general refinement isn’t as good as in some.

Basic models have all the necessities, but it’s the TR models that offer a large amount of kit for your money - and are our favourites. However, if you want something sporty, there's an SR model at the top of the range, unique to the 1.6 engine and the five-door body.
