Toyota's That The US Does Not Have - Toyota Yaris Forums

Kaotic Lazagna · 07-25-2009, 02:01 AM

Thought I'd check up what the Philippines has in terms of Toyota's that either the US doesn't have, or is a bit different. Here they are:

Previa

Land Cruiser Prado

Avanza

Camry

Fortuner

Hilux

Innova

Hiace (man, this is huge)

On another note, NUMMI, the Toyota manufacturing plant here in NorCal, may be closing.

GM is leaving NUMMI. Toyota may go it alone. Nobody is yet sure.

Be nice if they did so that my brother-in-law won't get laid off.

Not surprised that we don't have those here. It's not like we need them anyway

I doubt the US would allow it for commercial uses either (the Hiace) since they use those Dodge fans for the airport now a days. However, the Innova and the Avanza may be good choices for florists and such that need to haul stuff around. I know Ford is making a model specifically for those people. I forgot what it's called tho.

Couldn't agree with you more. European countries got those, right? Even the PI didn't have a Corolla hatch, at least I've never seen any on tv. hahaha.

So the Corolla T-Sport uses the 2ZZ-GE as well? That's cool.

The predecessor to the outgone Corolla hatch is called the Auris and I think it looks great... in a bulky Toyota-ish kind of way.

Especially as the 3-door model (yeah I'm a nut for 3D hatches).

The U.S had the first gen (U.S.Version) of the previa, then they traded off to the sienna name and such.....

Yeah. I still can't believe the older Previa's were mid-engine and supercharged.

eTiMaGo · 07-25-2009, 12:38 PM

We used to have a Fortuner as a company vehicle, great car for the money, very popular here

But I prefer my lil Yaris

supmet · 07-25-2009, 02:56 PM

The mid 90s previa is right up there with the aztek for the ugliest car ever made.

Kaotic Lazagna · 07-25-2009, 03:04 PM

LMAO. Never said it looked nice. hahaha. Kinda reminds me of a Jelly Bean.

Morgan · 07-25-2009, 03:09 PM

my favorite:

but we have some of those models, just not in those trims?...

ps- we get this corolla but not with the 2.2L D-4d that does 0-60 in 8.1... :(
