Toyota Auris 2010 vs Lexus CT 2011
Gearbox: | Manual | Automatic | |
---|---|---|---|
Engine: | 1.4 Diesel | 1.8 Petrol | |
Diesel (Toyota Auris) engines typically outperform gasoline engines in terms of fuel efficiency and low-end torque. This makes them more economical and better suited for towing or long-distance travel. However, gasoline (Lexus CT) engines mostly are lighter, quieter, and offer better acceleration and responsiveness, especially in smaller vehicles.

Engines | |||
Average engine lifespan: | 300'000 km | 420'000 km | |
Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used, but under equal conditions the average life of a Lexus CT engine could be longer. | |||
Engine production duration: | 15 years | 16 years | |
Engine spread: | Installed on at least 3 other car models, including Toyota Corolla, Toyota Yaris, Toyota iQ | Used only for this car | |
In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. Toyota Auris might be a better choice in this respect. | |||
Hydraulic tappets: | no | yes | |
The Lexus CT engine has hydraulic tappets (lifters), providing quieter operation and no need for periodic adjustment, but they are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in case of failure. | |||
