Toyota will use the upcoming Paris Motor Show in October to reveal its redesigned flagship classic for Europe, the Avensis. Think of it as the old country's variety of the Avalon. Though we only have a rear 3/4 shot to go by, the new Avensis looks considerably more thickset than the flow model, with a midstream deck lid, large rear tail-lights, a sharp shoulder line and some interesting dipped budding above the face sills. We don't know much besides, other than that it will be existing with more crushing and cleaner engines when it goes on retailing in Europe around January. Toyota also announced that it will be bringing out the production style of its iQ city car and the Urban Cruiser for the Paris show. The Urban Cruiser is really a ruggedized, pliable-roading kind of the Scion xD, while the iQ is based on the view of the same name that debuted at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2007.
