is the Toyota Avensis about to be replaced?

Hello, The current Toyota Avensis was only launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show last September; however, a current British car magazine is showing that a facelifted Toyota Avensis is due around now. A close relation is planning to buy an Avensis very soon, so is it correct that it is to be updated so quickly?

Hi Jerome,

Can you tell us which magazine you saw this in? We'll take a look and comment further. However, the Avensis was facelifted in time for 2012 sales as you say and we are not aware of any changes on the way just yet. It would be very unusual for it to be updated within two years.

Hope that puts your relation's mind at ease.
