Toyota Ireland introduce iQ and Avensis – test drive at Tom Hogan Motors today!

Toyota Ireland is delighted to announce the launch of two new models to the Irish market – a radical new model, the iQ, and the third generation Avensis.

Introducing the Toyota iQ

iQ: The new car for tomorrow's low carbon society Radical iQ Design, influenced by Toyota's Japanese roots

An "engineering jewel" featuring six packaging breakthroughs Driving performance — iQ is a 'serious driving machine'

The iQ is a revolutionary new vehicle that enhances Toyota's position to offer exciting and desirable vehicles with low fuel consumption and emissions. Toyota expects iQ to attract many new customers to the Toyota brand through the car's breakthrough design, packaging and driving dynamics.

The radical iQ design represents simple, bold, forward-looking Japanese design approaches. To achieve a refined feel meticulous attention was paid to the quality finish of interior and exterior details. The iQ is small in size, but unlike a small car possesses a confident on-road appearance.

A host of engineering breakthroughs have been combined to make iQ the world's smallest four-seat car, including six major space-saving innovations. Toyota sees the iQ as an 'engineering jewel' capable of radically changing consumer opinion on small cars.

The iQ offers quick and nimble handling in urban environments with an extremely small turning radius of 3.9 metres, and a level of motorway stability previously unimaginable for a vehicle of its size. Innovative driving dynamics have been achieved by a combination of a new platform, innovative suspension/steering and leading-edge aerodynamics.

The third generation Toyota Avensis Athletic design – powerful and dynamic Lower CO2 emissions and fuel consumption Toyota Optimal Drive – increased power and torque, World-class safety performance

Designed, engineered and built in Europe, the new Avensis projects an athletic and sleek design, giving a strong and dynamic character to the car. Featuring more powerful and cleaner engines, the new Avensis emits less CO2, making the Toyota Avensis the only D segment petrol vehicle within the C band for road tax in Ireland.

Innovative Toyota Optimal Drive technology is applied to the third generation Avensis through a powerful new range of petrol engines, upgraded diesel engines and advanced new transmissions offering customers reduced emissions and fuel consumption, yet without compromising on power and driving pleasure.

Avensis has always been one of the safest cars in its segment with a five star Euro NCAP rating from its original test, back in 2003. A major requirement in the development of the Avensis was to once again present a car with an advanced safety level. With seven airbags and active front seat headrests the new Avensis is engineered to achieve 5-stars in the even more stringent 2009 Euro NCAP rating.

Commenting on the launch, John Kennedy, Dealer Principal, Tom Hogan Motors, Cashel Road Clonmel, said -

"We at Tom Hogan Motors are very excited about the launch of these two great new products. The Avensis has always been a core model in the Toyota Range and continues to be a leading player in the D segment in Ireland, achieving number one sales in the segment for 22 out of the last 24 years.

“With its innovative Toyota Optimal Drive Technology and Reduced Emissions and Fuel consumption, we expect the improved third generation Avensis to build on the already strong foundation of the previous models.

“The new revolutionary Toyota iQ represents a breakthrough in automotive engineering and radical thinking. Its high level of sophistication usually only found on larger cars is what differentiates it from all other small cars on the market.”
