Toyota has announced a global recall of more than 2.4 million hybrid vehicles, including about 55,000 Prius and Auris models in the UK.
Toyota is set to revive its Corolla nameplate when it replaces the Auris hatchback in 2019.
Toyota has ditched its diesel and normally-aspirated petrol engine from the Auris range as part of a focus on its “in-demand” drivetrains.
Two hybrid vehicles made their debut in Auto Trader’s ranking of the UK’s ten fastest selling cars as the Ford Galaxy MPV secured its pace at the top of the pile for the second month in a row.
