I am curious to know what you think Toyota could do to incrementally improve its products. What should be done about the Auris, for instance? What would you like to see in the new Avensis?

I think the problem with Auris is pretty severe - it lack when it comes to the interior, and although I like the looks, I seem to be a problem as well that it quickly becomes "conservative".
Toyota blew it on the interior quality. The interior has great looks, but the nice materials were reserved for the Corolla (sedan and Station wagon) versions. I have not read a single review where this disappointment wasn't highlighted, so I hope Toyota will do as with the Verso: completely redesign it within 2 years!
Toyota can't have a bread-and-butter model like, and I fear for the new Avensis. Toyota might have balls when it comes to the smaller cars - now it's time to show the same with the big ones.
