Compared to the small and old school looking previous generation Toyota Rush, the new version looks absolutely modern and eye-catching. The new Rush looks quite striking with angular front headlamps, wide front grille, rugged side profile with black cladding, roof rails and machined alloy wheels and the sporty rear profile with wide and horizontal tail lamps. All these design elements make the Rush feel like it is a vehicle from one category above.
The new generation Toyota Rush now features the additional flexibility of two extra seats in the third row, making it a seven-seater compact MUV. These extra two seats have a flexible folding arrangement, thus opening up a cavernous boot space at the rear. At the same time, there are multiple cup holders and small storage spaces in the entire cabin, making it a practical place to be in.
The previous generation Toyota Rush was known for its almost indestructible feel, and this new version of the Rush feels the same way as well. The ever trustable reliability factor of brand Toyota comes into play, giving the owners of the Rush an extra peace of mind when it comes to the after-sales period of owning it.
While the Toyota Rush looks very striking and contemporary on the outside, the fact that it has been moderately styled on the inside makes for confused opinions. The too subtle styling on the inside with boring looking instrument console and center console dilutes the overall experience.
The new Rush is powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine, which is not as exciting in its power delivery as one would expect from it. The linear power delivery is good for comfortable and effortless driving but is not as engaging to drive, which might be a small turn off for enthusiasts.

Being an impressive 7-seat offering from the Japanese automaker, Toyota Rush can be best described as a cross between an MPV and an SUV. Be it the aggressive and sharp styling or spacious interior, the Rush promises to give you a good package at a reasonable price point. In the Malaysian market, the current version of Toyota Rush was launched in 2018, featuring multiple visual and mechanical updates. It is available in two variants - 1.5G and 1.5S, with a starting price of RM 88,314. Considering the recent SUV trends, it seems to have all the bells and whistles to woo in customers.
Instead of looking dated, the updated interior looks more symmetrical and is of contemporary design. Majorly black in colour, the cabin is very well complemented by silver and chrome accents. Moreover, the leather upholstery adds to the premium touch.
The cabin is stretched across a 2,685 mm long wheelbase that can accommodate three-row configuration quite comfortably. Though the boot space is a bit tight with the third row in place, it could be expanded to 514 litres by folding it completely. The headroom, legroom, and shoulder room are comfortable at both ends; however, the third is good enough for teenagers.
Toyota has loaded the SUV with a number of convenient bits, including a single-zone air-con with vents for the front as well as rear passengers, 13 cup-holders, and electric sockets for charging electrical devices. For entertainment, the SUV incorporates a 6.8-inch display with USB, AUX, Bluetooth, and USB mirroring. Other technical bits include Toyota AutoTag built-in SmartTAG, and digital video recorder and keyless entry, and start. The 3-spoke steering wheel houses audio controls, while the instrument console comes with analogue speedometer, tachometer and digital indicators for fuel and other important information.
Toyota Rush carries an aggressive exterior design theme with a front end inspired by the bigger sibling, the Toyota Fortuner. Upfront, there is a tapered, four-slat grille edged by slim LED headlamps along with LED DRLs. Below that, there are fog lights, faux inlets, and intake in the centre. The square-like bonnet gives it a meaner stance, while the bold creases are completely matched with its bold looks.
On the sides, the body cladding adds to its MPV-SUV look. A crease starts from the front and goes all way to the back before converging near the tail lamps. The SUV rides on 17-inch alloy rims fitted with 215/60 tyres further enhance its rugged appearance. At the rear end, wrap-around taillights integrate with black window trims; there is black cladding and also a skid-plate present like the front.
Dimension-wise, Toyota Rush measures 4,435 mm long, 1,695 mm wide, 1,705 mm tall, and has a wheelbase measuring 2,685 mm. The five different colours choices include Blue, White, Titanium Silver, Dark Grey, and Metallic Green.
At the front, the suspension system of the Toyota Rush carries MacPherson struts with stabilizer and coil spring, while at the rear there is axle type with 5-link along with lateral od and coil spring. For braking, the automaker equipped the SUV with ventilated disc brakes at the front and drum brakes at the rear. Moreover, the all-electric power steering ensures that there are no hiccups while maneuvering the crossover. It sits 220 mm above the surface, which indicates smooth handling even on a bumpy road.
Under the hood, Toyota Rush gets a 2NR-VE 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine with an automatic start/stop function. The same powertrain can also find under the bonnets of the Avanza and the Perodua Myvi. It produces 105 PS at 6,000 rpm and 136 Nm of peak torque at 4,200 rpm. A four-speed torque converter automatic transmission is there to transfer the power to the rear wheels.
The added dual VVT-i results in better fuel efficiency, the SUV claimed to deliver 15.6 kmpl, which is quite impressive by the standards of three-row SUVs.
Toyota and safety go hand-in-hand. With a 5-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating, Toyota Rush safety features include 6 SRS Airbags, ABS with EBD, brake assist, emergency stop signal, vehicle stability control, traction control, hill-start assist, blind-spot monitor, rear-cross traffic alert, and a pre-collision system. Adding to all these features are front and rear parking sensors, auto door locks, ISOFIX Child safety mounts, immobiliser, cabin sensor, and a Siren with a backup battery.
With all these exquisite features and attractive design, Toyota Rush has a certain buzz that's not going to fade anytime soon. Plus, a fuel-efficient engine suited for all kinds of roads is a cherry on the cake. Whether it is shopping stint in the city or an adventure in the countryside, Toyota Rush is the mate you would love to have along.
The Rush from Toyota is the company’s answer to the Honda BR-V. It’s a seven-passenger car with quasi-SUV looks but is actually an MPV. The Rush is essentially a Daihatsu which has also been rebranded as the Aruz by Perodua. Both the Aruz and Rush are made at Perodua’s workshop in Rawang. The 1.5-litre petrol engine is manufactured by Perodua.
Toyota Rush looks way sleek due to its long sized wheelbase. In fact the total look of the uplifted version of this car is pretty sleek and eye catching to look at. I love its expanded front grille, front placed headlamps, and wide sized tail lamps. Moreover, since my family is a big one, I was in search for a
The Rush is one of those cars where when you get used to it, it is hard to go back to anything else. The sheer practicality that it offers can be matched by very few cars and for a family, that is just brilliant. As many others feel, the only real complaint is the engine, which could do with more

When my parents decided to move in with me, it was about time for me to shift from a sedan to a SUV. We zeroed on to the Toyota Rush because of the reliability and comfort associated with the brand and also because the car looked amazing. This car has made me compliment myself on my decision several time since
Just love it especially travelling with family in the car!
My father retired last year and as a surprise gift for our family of seven, he booked the splendid looking Toyota Rush. This Sports utility vehicle has been a dream come true for me. I had always dreamt of undertaking some adventurous driving but was unable to, because of the dearth of a proper vehicle. This car with its superb
For those of you having doubts about the Toyota Rush, stop having them and just buy the car! I was in the same position a few months back, but after buying it, there is no looking back. The Rush is brilliant in every way for a family car, if you are looking for performance then look elsewhere, if not then

Toyota Rush is the ultimate MPV in the market. I have been using it for quite a while now and it is just perfect in every sense. First of all, I like the amount of space it has to offer to its passengers. It does not matter in which row a person sits, he will be comfortable even for the
