Hertz customers will be among the first in Australia to drive the much-anticipated V6 Toyota Aurion, which will enter the company’s core
rental fleet from early December.
Hertz will offer two versions of the stylish new
Australian made Aurion – Toyota’s V6 sedan – the entry level AT-X sedan and the Sportivo SX6.
Features include Toyota’s new fuel-efficient 3.5 litre dual VVTi V6 engine, inspired by Formula 1 motor racing, and
among the best six cylinder fuel
economy in its class.
“The Toyota Aurion is a significant addition to the large car segment of the Australian new vehicle market, and we are proud to be a
launch customer,” said Wayne Burgoyne, Director of Sales and Marketing for Hertz Australia.
“This vehicle is designed not only for comfort and performance, but to deliver a level of fuel economy below what could be expected for a
six cylinder car,” said Mr Burgoyne. “We are confident that the Aurion will be a very popular addition to our fleet.”
The Toyota Aurion offers a significant list of features for safety, comfort and efficiency, including vehicle stability and traction control, six
airbags, Anti Skid Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) and Brake Assist.
In pre-production testing by Toyota, the Aurion’s 3.5 litre, V6 engine consumed 9.9 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres, making this
one of the most
fuel efficient of the six cylinder large sedans on Australian roads.
As well, the Aurion exceeds the latest Australian emission standards, earning an impressive four-star rating in the Australian
Government’s Green Vehicle Guide.
