Proton Exora Turbo Prototype

It is basically the Proton Exora Prestige Concept which was first previewed at the Exora’s official launch event, but now fitted with a prototype turbo powerplant.

A source revealed that the turbocharged Proton Exora MPV could most probably hit the market by between end 2010 to mid 2011.

The powerplant featured in the Prestige Concept is said to produce up to 270 horsepower, and with a torque figure that is rated at about 350Nm.

Toyota Passo launched in Japan (2nd Generation)

Passo L Package (1.3G, 1.0X) and V Package(1.0x)

Passo for Hana (1.3 and 1.0) plus C Package

Toyota has launched the 2nd generation Toyota Passo in Japan, and it now comes in two ‘body styles’ called the regular Passo and the Passo + Hana which is supposed to be the more stylish and upmarket model with features such as projector headlamps.

In Japan, the new Passo will be available with either a 1.0 liter or a 1.3 liter engine. The 4-speed auto has been phased out – now all models including 4WD versions come with a CVT transmission. The 1.0 liter uses the 1KR-FE that produces 69 PS (51kW) at 6,000rpm and 92Nm of torque at 3,600rpm.

The 1.3 liter engine is the new 1NR-FE which replaces the K3-VE in the previous generation car. The 1NR-FE now has dual variable valve timing on both the intake and exhaust valves. Power output is 95 PS (70kW) at 6,000rpm and 121Nm of torque at 4,000rpm, which is up from the K3-VE’s 86hp (64kW) and 116Nm.
