Tom.Kitchingman 1 Posted February 14, 2020 Share Posted February 14, 2020 Hi All, I’m picking up a 2017 Hybrid Auris Estate this afternoon from my local dealer. Back in 2004, the 2nd generation Prius caught my attention and I test drove one with a great desire to own one. Sadly the boot space just didn’t cut it at the time with a young family. Fast forward to 2020 and I wanted to economise having run a Ford Kuga for a couple of years. It has given me an opportunity to revisit Toyota’s hybrids and my local dealer recommended an Auris estate over a Prius for our needs. I’m looking forward to joining this community and will leave you with a link to a website that does an excellent job of explaining Toyota’s hybrid technology. I’m sure many of you will find it a fascinating read: http://prius.ecrostech.com/original/PriusFrames.htm All the best, Tom. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tom.Kitchingman 1 Posted February 14, 2020 Author Share Posted February 14, 2020 Thanks Gents. I’ve got the car now and I’m very pleased with it so far. I’ve even read the manual, which I haven’t bothered doing for previous cars that I can remember. There’s a good feeling about this car and can see it being a keeper.
