Only the 3.0 D-4D and 2.5 VNT D-4D will be getting the extra gear, making it 5 speed a/t.

I have read somewhere that this 5 speed is actually the same as the current 4 speed except it has been added with a lower 1st gear, like the Prado.

With 5speed gearbox the torque is 410 Nm

*renzo, maybe going for the race chip thing after a couple of months if still not satisfied.

sa mga vvti users, share naman your experience from 0 to 60 kph and onwards compared with other cars. is the acceleration satisfactory kahit loaded 7 pax with just a normal press of the pedal o dapat pedal to the metal kasi nahihirapan na? how about uphill? sorry wala kasi gasoline for test drive dito sa amin. parang kulang din ang mga sagot sa lahat ng nabasa ko. TIA

Mine is 2.7VVTi 2009 model, acceleration is adequate even loaded with 7 pax, IMO. I tried 6 pax loaded with stuff up to the roof rack during our trip to Sagada and never felt underpowered. Tried also 4 pax with full of stuff plus 3 bikes still power is enough for overtaking (parang ganon parin). Just shift to 3 if you need to accelerate hard.

But do not expect the same acceleration with midsize sedan or with full sized SUV like LC off course they are a lot quicker.

What's the best deal you guys got for either the 4x2 VVTi AT or 4x2 D4D AT? Hope you can pm me guys! Thanks!

*shadow, thanks for the vote of confidence sa vvti. aside from the FC, wala talaga akong nahanap na substantial downside sa gasoline version in over 100 google pages. hehehe, this is good.
