TRD (Toyota Racing Development) - TRD Aurion, TRD HiLux

TRD (Toyota Racing Development) Australia is the performance vehicle department of TMCA. TRD will offer vehicles that emphasize refined power and athletic driving dynamics.

To mark the establishment of this exciting new performance arm, Toyota's rally team was renamed Team TRD.

Motorsport is the ultimate test bed for engineers and the lessons learned by Team TRD in the forest will be applied to the development of the TRD range of high-performance vehicles. Team TRD's principal, Neal Bates, has already been involved in the development of prototype vehicles for TRD. The Team TRD Corolla uses a number of standard production parts.

TRD Aurion will boast a supercharged 3.5-litre dual VVT-i V6 engine that has been developed with a target of producing at least 235kW. Power will be transmitted via a six-speed automatic transmission and through multi-spoke 19-inch wheels. Upgrades to braking and suspension systems have also been incorporated. Keep checking for the arrival date of the Aurion at our Dealership.

The entire vehicle has a purposeful, high tech style with refinement and attention to detail. The graphic break-up on the steering wheel echoes the hand grip areas on the Toyota F1 wheels he said.

The vehicle's seats suggest a styling evocative of a racing seat, with high lateral support and material changes that work with the driver. We have incorporated high-grip materials in key areas to brace the occupant. The interior is performance-focused, but in a very refined way. The TRD Aurion is scheduled for launch in August 2007.

Toyota anticipates that TRD HiLux will be launched in Australia by the end of 2007.
