^ \ BatUe of the bulge with Toyota Yaris


I from £8,995, is bigger in every JL dimension. It’s also way better


latest Toyota Yaris, priced


in terms of perceived quality. Fold the EasyFlat rear seats down


and you’re treated to the largest stowage area of any supermini. This system allows the rear bench to be split 60:40 and both sections to slide independently. Therefore it’s possible to transport long, bulky items without impinging on a rear passenger’s


Rav revs up and comes a long way


I HE latest RAV4 has come a long way. From rather hum­ ble beginnings, Toyota’s com­


pact 4x4 has grown into a very accomplished proposition. It is big­ ger, beefier and a whole lot smarter than its predecessor. Cute and chunky has been


replaced with boid and aggressive. The frontal styling is still recognis- ably RAV4 but move aft and the new


vehicle is a whole lot more angular and a good deal more spacious. The cabin is smartly-styled with


an unusually curvaceous fascia that’s quite unlike any other production car in its execution. While the main instruments are quite conventional, the centre console features a twin tiered design with metallic inserts and a circular theme for the minor controls.


Prices start at £18,995, and three


trim levels are offered - XT3, XT4 and plush XT5 - and all variants get a compact disc stereo, alloy wheels, air conditioning plus no fewer than seven airbags including curtain and driver’s knee bags. The range-top­ ping XT5 also comes furnished \vith leather upholstery, climate con­ trolled air conditioning and satellite navigation.


legroom allowance. Aerodynamics, once a major vehicle selling point in the Eighties, are again coming back into vogue as manufacturers look for relatively inexpensive solutions to the problem of their wares becoming big­ ger, heavier and therefore less econom­


ical on fuel. . The Yaris benefits from a flat cen­


tral underfloor, a smooth fuel tank and a cover between the spare wheel and the bumper.


The result is a drag coefficient of


0.30, excellent for such an upright car. Toyota claims to. have cut frontal lift ^ at speed by 100 per.cent, which in turn ^ gives benefits in terms of motorway stability and resistance to crosswind ^


effects. Space and safety remain the top two


buyer wants and the Yaris answers both very comprehensively. Equip­ ment levels are also beyond the ability of most major rivals to match. ,
