Mas matibay pala ang Kelvinator kung ganun!

3.0 D-4D engine na po ngayon, nagtanong kami sa toyota this week lang. Wala na daw stock nung 2.5. And downside is wala na din siyang Rear window kaya Nissan Estate nalang kinuha namin.

Ok nga sana kung ganito ang upgrade. Hehe!

Unfortunately, the aesthetic 'upgrades' Toyota made didn't turn out too good. Sana nga they put in the 3.0L D-4D. That would make the head-to-head with the Grand Starex more interesting...

Kung 3.0L D-4D ang engine, it might be the tuned down turbo intercooled version with lower output and torque than the 3.0 D-4D of the Fortuner. Konti lang ang increase compared to the 2.5 D4D Hiace.

Well, according to wikipedia, under Fifth generation:

All of the models use a four-cylinder DOHC engine, in a variety of forms, a 1TR-FE 2000 cc or 2TR-FE 2700 cc petrol engine or a 2KD-FTV 2500 cc or 1KD-FTV 3000 cc D-4D turbo diesel engine.

and

The 2.5 and 3.0-litre turbo diesel engines have a maximum output of 75 kW at 3600 rpm and 80 kW at 3000 rpm respectively and maximum torque of 260 Nm at 1600–2400 rpm and 286 Nm at 1200–1600 rpm respectively. The 2.7 L petrol engine has a maximum output of 111 kW at 4800 rpm and a maximum torque of 241 Nm at 3800 rpm.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyota_HiAce

With that being said, 75 kW and 80 kW translate to about 100-107 hp respectively. Not that much improvement indeed. Should help the AT version be about as quick as the MT version with the 2.5L engine. Still far from the GS's output.

Was able to drive a Super Grandia on SLEX before. With 4 on board, it was pretty potent, getting up to 140 kph without a complaint, so perhaps Toyota got the power/torque/transmission balance down pat.

Matagal nang di nabubuksan ang rear windows ng GL Grandia,mga 2008 MY yata yan nagsimula.

Mabuti't naging 3 Liter na ang engine ng Hi-Ace.Sadly mahirap parin makakuha.
