Product Overview

Toyota Avensis 3 (code T270) facelift 2 is an affordable mid-size sedan in production from 2015 to 2018. It was available with a range of inline-4 engines that displaced 1.6 to 2.0 liters.
As the Avensis is made in the UK for the EU market, and because the EU believe cars to be part of the "axis of evil", the already small engines in the Gen3 Avensis had to be further downsized for this "facelift".
Additionally, Toyota made a lot of effort to change the exterior styling of the car, again, so much so that one cannot tell that it is the same model as before (for the second time). Part of this could be to comply with more strict regulations, and part of it must be to compensate for the inadequacies in the drivetrain.
Toyota has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.28 coefficient of drag to show for it. The vehicle is, however, engineered purely for low-consumption mobility, not for fun.
