2024 Toyota Rush facelift – Engine Specifications
Even as the new 2024 Toyota Rush GR Sport sees some changes in its makeup, it remains the same in terms of engine specs. It continues to draw its power via a 2 NR-VE 1.5 liter, inline, 4 cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine that offers 105 hp power at 6,000 rpm and 136 Nm torque at 4,200 rpm. It gets mated to a 5 speed manual or 4 speed automatic gearbox sending power to its rear wheels.
The new Rush GR Sport is unlikely to be introduced by Toyota in India, as here they have the Rumion on sale. Rumion is a rebadged version of the Maruti Ertiga. Toyota Rush rivals the likes of Ertiga, Honda BRV, etc.
