The third generation of the Avensis was launched at the 2008 Paris Motor Show and it was presented in three body versions: sedan, liftback, and station-wagon.
The lift-back version was on the market to compete directly with the Ford Mondeo and Opel/Vauxhall Vectra. This type of bodywork allowed a better trunk-space, but it looked more like a sedan than a station-wagon.
The front design was the same for all three variants of the Avensis. The big headlights were extended over the sides, on the fenders. It didn't look too much different than the previous Avensis and, truth be told, the design was not the key element for the largest Toyota sedan in Europe.
The interior design was about the same as the 2007 model, but with some differences in the infotainment and safety systems. The rain and light sensors were available from the mid-trim level. The standard audio system used a 4x40W amplifier and it could read MP3 and WMA files. To enhance the audio quality, a Digital Sound Processor (DSP) and automatic sound leveling was included, adjusting the volume according to the noise level from the vehicle's speed.
A new engine was installed on the 2009 Avensis range. The D-4D 125 was introduced for a better fuel-efficiency. It was mated as standard with a 6-speed manual.
