I'm about to replace my Toyota Yaris with an Auris, but how is the Auris' handling compared to the Yaris?

I currently own a 3-year-old 1.3 SR Yaris (with which I have been entirely satisfied) and I'm thinking of changing it for a new model Auris TR 1.6 which affords slightly more room and comfort. I have been offered a good deal to change. Am I likely to be disappointed with either ride or handling compared to the Yaris?

The Yaris and Auris are very similar in terms of ride and handling. The Auris is actually a little more comfortable and quieter but we'd suggest you test drive an Auris to check you're 100 per cent happy before buying.

Decent combination of ride and handling that might suit some people better than a harder sprung Golf or a Civic. A few inches taller than a Golf of Focus so easier to get in and out.
