45 Events maltatoday, Sunday, 7 February 2016 More style and new engines for Auris ToyoTa has increased the ap- peal of the auris range to meet the needs of more customers, offering new and revised power-trains, up- dated equipment specifications and new advanced safety equipment. In 2010 Toyota launched the orig- inal auris Hybrid, becoming the first and only manufacturer to of- fer a choice of three power-trains in the compact/family car market. Today, with only limited and more expensive competition, the exten- sive auris range remains a unique proposition. The 2015 auris range reflects the changes in this highly competitive market and feedback from Toyota customers. Significant improve- ments in five key areas: design, sensory quality, the hybrid model, safety and powertrains. The refreshed exterior styling presents a new-look front and rear, giving auris a more prestigious and sophisticated road presence. on board, the sensory quality of the cabin has been significantly raised with a redesigned dashboard, pre- mium quality trims and surface finishes and a new 4.2-inch colour TFT multi-information screen (on all hybrids and grades above ac- tive). The 2015 auris range further ben- efits from suspension and steering revisions to improve ride comfort, handling and driver involvement. Numerous measures have also been introduced to reduce noise and vibration transmitted into the cabin. The star of the engine line-up is surely the Hybrid power train. au- ris Hybrid represents great value for money. Co2 emissions from 79g/km and combined cycle fuel economy from 80.7mpg attract sig- nificant scrappage scheme incen- tives and, coupled with the hybrid system's established reliability and durability, exceptionally low run- ning costs. Toyota's full hybrid technology is now established as a mainstream power-train choice, with auris Hy- brid's smooth, relaxed and stress- free driving proving increasingly popular with compact car custom- ers. The hybrid model currently ac- counts for more than 50 per cent of all auris sales in Europe, a share that's expected to increase over the next few years. Since the hy- brid joined the range, more than 200,000 have been sold and today auris attracts more sales than any other hybrid on the market.

New global brand website for Rémy Martin LauNCHEd in october, the one Life/Live Them campaign is a celebra- tion of the multifaceted personalities and Slash generation lifestyle, en- couraging people to live richer, larger lives, to expand the horizon and seize all the opportuni- ties that life can offer, beyond the one-dimen- sional paths that former generations could have embraced. This vision is power- ful, as it is now turning the Remy Martin Brand Website into a slash- ers' personality. Moving away from rigid naviga- tion and content hierar- chy structures, the new Rémy Martin website connects all contents and puts the user in the driv- er seat, letting him/her navigate freely from one con- tent to the next. The platform is an invitation to explore the dif- ferent stories of the brand and to experience the brand idea. Instead of having a homepage with all contents compartmen- talized, the website is aiming for a continuous flow of ex- periences leading seamlessly through all areas and topics of the site. Created with mobile users in mind, it structures the content in modular chains of story elements and teaser para- graphs that leads to the next story chain, composed verti- cally into scrollable, consistent pages. This way, the site offers a lively rhythm of connected global narratives and local con- tents. The story of VSoP is tied to that of the Cellar Master Bap- tiste Loiseau, and a consumer reading about Rémy Martin's extensive aging is enticed to continue its discovery with Xo. of course, the site displays to- day a special focus on the one Life /Live Them campaign, which will change in the com- ing weeks and months. The new brand idea also ex- presses itself by giving people an opportunity to learn, to im- prove, to live their next slash. With the Mentorship Program 'Circle of Centaurs', Rémy Mar- tin invites to reveal its consum- ers' inner talents. Through a series of Mentor video sessions and the participating global social audience, people are be- ing encouraged and enabled to develop further their passions. The Mentorship Program is both inspirational and partici- patory. It invites and challenges viewers to step beyond passive viewing and actively engage the content by participating in the tasks. It is also building a commu- nity: a group of people who are interested in personal growth, in sharing inspirations and ex- periences of living your next slash and in a contemporary interpretation of luxury. "It was absolutely critical for us to bring to life our promis- ing tagline one Life/Live Them in a way that would concretely expand people's horizons", says augustin depardon, Executive director of Rémy Martin. discover the website on www. remymartin.com.
