Overview

With smarter thinking, more intelligent engineering and refined styling, Aurion defies all V6 traditions.

Designed for our unique conditions, Aurion combines style and local tuning to deliver a superb driving experience.

For example, the Aurion delivers outstanding performance - an exhilarating 200kW. Yet it only uses 9.9L/100km* of fuel. It also offers dynamic handling and control to give you pure driving freedom - while surrounding you, almost invisibly, with a range of uncompromising safety features for you and your passengers.

Styling

Powered by Australian ingenuity

Built in Australia. With Aurion, "home grown" means more than local pride. It means you get a car that easily handles our extreme and diverse conditions. From city driving to interstate exploring. Meaning you get an exhilarating drive - whatever road you're on.

Muscular, confident and streamlined look

A long wheelbase and wide track give the Aurion a bold, athletic stance - which ensures excellent handling. Add the aggressive lower bumper and strong accent lines, and you've got a car that looks ready to go places.

Not a traditional V6

Inside and out, Aurion defies tradition and raises the bar. Toyota's local design team have created a car like nothing else on the road. Climb into the driver's seat and feel the ergonomic comfort surrounding you. Start driving and feel the power and technology at your fingertips.

Luxury interior

Soothing colour tones, moulded seats and premium trims give a feeling of luxury and space. Generous dimensions add to the roomy feeling and you'll find ample legroom both front and back. All models come with air conditioning - including a pollen filter and steering wheel audio controls as well as power windows, door locks and mirrors.

Ergonomic comfort

Take a seat behind the wheel and you'll notice everything is just where you need it to be. The flowing, integrated dash wraps around you and your front passenger - a reflection of the performance inspired design. The adjustable power seat allows you to set your position to be just right. And all controls are in perfectly easy reach. That's ergonomic.

Premium audio acoustics

Aurion's sophisticated sound system incorporates psychoacoustic technology for enhanced bass playback and a virtual surround sound experience. Plus, the technology subtly tailors the sound to compensate for the speed you're going - so it's always at its best.

Mechanical

Quad-cam 6-cylinder 2GR-FE engine

Aurion's quad-cam, multi-valve 3.5 litre engine is perfectly balanced. It uses intelligent engineering, not simply sheer size, to deliver its 200kW performance. Plus the V6 is equipped with Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) so you get enviable power, excellent fuel economy and lower emissions.

Dual VVT-i technology

The Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) engine releases power according to your needs. It seamlessly switches to maximum power when you're overtaking or climbing hills but automatically adjusts to more efficient settings when you're cruising. That's why you get fuel economy and reduced emissions together with fantastic performance.

Dual-zone automatic climate control air conditioning

Set a temperature you like and climate control will work to keep it constant. And the front dual-zone system means you and your front passenger can each set a different temperature - creating two separate "climates" in the same car.

Power and efficiency

Aurion's 3.5 litre V6 engine delivers an impressive 200kW. Yet it only uses 9.9L/100km* of fuel and easily meets the tough Euro IV emissions standards. Once again Aurion exceeds expectations - combining exhilarating performance with outstanding fuel efficiency.

(*Tested to ADR81/02 (Combined cycle). Actual fuel consumption may vary depending on driving conditions/style, vehicle conditions and options/accessories.)

Auto-on projector-type headlamps

Light sensors automatically switch the headlights on in dim or dull light conditions. When they're on, the projector-type low-beam headlamps provide excellent light penetration, with forward visibility up to 80m.

Steering-wheel with audio controls

Aurion's steering wheel controls make managing your sounds and answering your calls a whole lot easier. With all models you can easily flick through radio stations or skip CD tracks without taking your hands off the wheel. With the Presara you also get steering wheel controls to make and answer your Bluetooth™ enabled hands-free phone calls.

Power rear sunshade*

Aurion's electrically-operated rear sunshade reduces direct sunlight entering the car through the rear window. Power it up or down according to the position of the sun. It'll automatically power-down whenever you shift into reverse. (*Power rear sunshade is only available on Presara, ZR6 and Prodigy)

Technology

Front and rear corner parking sensors*

Two parking sensors at the front of the car, and two parking sensors at the rear*, come standard with the Prodigy, Sportivo and Presara. And for that extra peace of mind, a reverse camera is standard on the Presara and available for all other models. (*Standard for Prodigy, Sportivo ZR6 and Presara.)

Hands-free convenience with Bluetooth™ enabled satellite navigation

You'll pull over a lot less with the Presara. It comes with built-in satellite navigation so you can say goodbye to maps and street directories. Plus, it's Bluetooth™ enabled so you can make and receive calls via the sat-nav screen - or via controls on the steering wheel. Bluetooth™ is available on other models through the audio system.

Rain-sensing windscreen wipers*

Prodigy, Presara and Sportivo come with rain-sensing wipers that automatically adjust themselves to match the amount of rain and the speed of the car - so you don't have to. (*Rain-sensing windscreen wipers is available on Prodigy, ZR6 and Presara only)

6-disc in-dash MP3/WMA compatible audio system

All models feature a MP3/WMA/CD compatible system with 6 speakers and psychoacoustic technology for a deep, powerful sound, spread throughout the cabin. Sportivo and Prodigy models come with a 6-disc in-dash CD changer, while Presara has a 4-disc in-dash CD changer with the DVD Satellite Navigation package.

Smart Entry & Start*

Quick and convenient, the Smart Entry & Start system means if you have the key fob in your pocket or bag, you just need to touch a front handle to unlock the doors and press a button on the dash to start the car. (*Smart Entry & Start is available on ZR6 and Presara only)

Toyota Link emergency communication system*

Presara comes standard with Toyota Link technology. It's a state-of-the-art satellite communications system that gives you fast access to roadside assistance and emergency help. A hands-free microphone mounted to the car's overhead console connects you to a Toyota Link agent, 24/7. So you can drive safe in the knowledge that help's always on hand. (*Presara only.)

Safety

Vehicle Stability Control and Traction Control

Every Aurion comes complete with a custom-designed package of Toyota's renowned Driver Assist Technology. The package includes Vehicle Stability Control - a fast acting computer-based intelligence that automatically controls skidding when cornering - and Traction Control, which minimises vehicle slippage when accelerating in difficult conditions.

AB-i: Active Braking with intelligence

The Aurion's Active Braking with intelligence is designed to help you steer well clear of accidents. Its Anti-skid Braking prevents the wheels from locking up when you brake heavily. While the Electronic Brake-force Distribution gives you control if you need to swerve as you're braking. Brake Assist steps in when you need maximum brake force.

Six SRS airbags

Inside every Aurion is a passive safety system of 6 SRS airbags designed to protect the driver and passengers. In the front, 2-stage front impact airbags deploy in relation to the severity of the crash and front mounted side airbags cushion side impacts. In the back, full length curtain airbags shield passengers from side impact.

Active safety technology - reverse camera

A reverse camera is available for all Aurion models to improve rear visibility when reversing. On Prodigy, Sportivo SX6 and ZR6, the image is displayed on the new 4.3" Display Audio, while on Presara models the image is displayed on the satellite navigation screen.
