RUGGED RIDE BACK IN TIME FOR LAND CRUISER

  By Derek Ogden | Oct 20, 2020 - 10:15 pm | Road Test Review, Toyota
Leave a comment

My first impression on viewing Queensland Rail’s wooden carriages in the 1970s was of rolling stock of some tribute to historic transport. The Toyota Land Cruiser 200 Series recently had a similar first-up effect. ToyotaÆs latest version of the legendary large four-wheel-drive wagon looks as rugged as ever. None of More →

TOYOTA PRADO 2009 – 2019

Though it has ‘proper 4WD’ body-on-chassis construction the Toyota Prado is aimed at buyers who will do most of their driving on-road – but who do want to get serious at times in moderate to harsh off-road conditions. Prado has been sold in Australia since 1996, but in this feature More →

As shutters around the world go up against pandemic and intellectual property pirates, automobile manufacturers increasingly are opening to the sharing of ideas, design and technology. For years, rising costs of new-vehicle development have opened the borders between what were once bitter rivals with sharing on an industrial scale: think More →

TOYOTA C-HR GETS ADDED SAFETY

  By Ewan Kennedy | Aug 30, 2020 - 11:53 pm | News, Toyota
Leave a comment

Toyota Safety Sense technologies for Toyota C-HR (Coupe – High Riding) improve its ability to avoid crashes, or minimise their impact. It does so by detecting and, if necessary, braking to help avoid other vehicles and pedestrians across a wider range of situations. Using an on-board camera and radar, C-HR’s More →

TOYOTA LANDCRUISER 70 SERIES: MORE COMFORT AND TECHNOLOGY

I would like to start a personal note: When I got my first job as full-time motoring journalist, with Modern Motor magazine way back in 1984, my initial assignment was to report on the just-released Toyota LandCruiser 70 Series. Now 36 years and a few grey hairs down the track More →

NEW CAMRY COMES FROM DIFFERENT DIRECTION

Here’s a thought. What if the Corona virus (aka COVID-19) had cast its deadly spell over the world a decade ago. With Australia now waking up to the disadvantages of relying on imported goods rather than making products in situ, perhaps we would still have a burgeoning automobile industry Down More →

2015 Toyota Fortuner

Toyota Fortuner is a seven-seat SUV that’s based on the Toyota HiLux pickup truck. While it shares many of its body-on-chassis underpinnings and mechanical components, the fortuner has a multi-link rear coil suspension, unlike the HiLux which is setup as a working vehicle. It has a bold frontal appearance with More →

HILUX IS UP TO TAKING ON TOUGH TIMES

As COVID-19 continues to cast its ugly spell over hapless humankind, it seems we will not be rubbing shoulders with the new Toyota HiLux anytime soon, plant closures around the world disrupting manufacture. Toyota’s popular ute, or pick-up to be precise, is at the back end of its five-year cycle More →

TOYOTA FJ CRUISER 2011 – 2016

  By Ewan Kennedy | May 3, 2020 - 4:01 am | Toyota, Used Car Review
Leave a comment

Toyota FJ Cruiser is a tribute to the legendary Toyota FJ 40 LandCruiser. That original Cruiser was a rough ’n’ tough old-style 4WD, whereas the new one that was launched here in March 2011 is much easier to live with. It’s also a lot more capable off-road than most people More →

COROLLA SEDAN PLANS TO PUT A SPURT ON HYBRID SALES

When it comes to buying cars, Australians are no fools. Just ask Toyota, the maker of this country’s most popular passenger vehicle, the Corolla, which with 30,468 units in 2019, maintained leadership in passenger-car sales for a seventh consecutive year. Petrol / electric hybrid models make up a fair chunk More →
