Stylish, versatile, and designed for absolute comfort and safety, the new-look Toyota Tarago is the true people mover. It is the only choice for those who accept no compromises when it comes to family or business transport.

It's Safety All-Round

Toyota believes in a future for our children. In fact, we became the first car manufacturer ever to receive the United Nations Global 500 Award for outstanding contributions to the environment. The All New Tarago boasts VVT-i engine technology and Electronic Controlled Transmission (ECT) with high efficiency lock-up torque converter. It incorporates recyclable materials wherever possible, with a wide range of its parts made from reusable sources. And it contains minimal quantities of lead and PVC, as Toyota's highly recyclable Super OIt's safety all-round

A host of advanced new safety features make the All New Tarago the safest yet. Anti-skid Braking System (ABS), Brake Assist (BA), and Electronic Brake-Force Distribution (EBD) are standard on all models, and the GLX features an intelligent Pre-Crash Seatbelt System** which anticipates a possible collision if a sudden quick, hard push on the brake pedal is detected. Pedestrians also benefit from numerous front-end features which minimise impact in the event of a collision.

Air conditioning with rear cooler

Ensure a pleasant drive for all occupants - and a stress-free journey for the driver - with dual-zone (driver and front passenger) climate control air conditioning and clean air filter standard on all models. Designed for vehicle-wide comfort, GLi features a rear cooling unit with rear ventilation control via an overhead panel between the front passenger seats, and on GLX models rear air conditioning.

Space, versatility, accessibility

Space, versatility, and accessibility equate to comfort, practicality, and ease of use – all important ingredients for any People Mover.

Space – With its front mounted engine, All New Tarago gives driver and passengers ample shoulder room and legroom and - with the addition of under-floor storage - more than generous luggage space.
Versatility – All New Tarago's seating design is flexible and well-thought-out, providing for eight adults. Additionally, tie down hooks are fitted within the cargo area to help secure luggage. It also includes under-floor rear cargo storage, glovebox, driver's side above-and-below dash storage, front passenger dash storage, front door pockets, rear side storage pockets, and 8 cup / 4 bottle holders.
Accessibility – Whether you're loading passengers or their luggage, the Tarago makes it easy with dual sliding rear passenger doors, rear sidesteps, and second row seatback mounted child seat anchorage points (instead of floor mounted).

Luxurious seating for 8 with space for all their luggage

Sink into lounge-chair comfort and enjoy every minute of every journey - long or short. With thicker, more luxuriant seat cushioning, high seat backs, height adjustable driver's seat, slide adjustable 60:40 second row seats with centre armrest, forward facing 3-seater third row with centre armrest and reclining back, and adjustable headrests on all seats, every occupant is treated to a little seating luxury. What's more, by folding the base of the 2nd row seat up or tumbling the 3rd row seats forward, you can significantly increase cabin floor and rear cargo storage space.

MP3 compatible CD at your fingertips

The soothing sounds of All New Tarago's 6-speaker MP3 compatible CD system, complete with steering wheel controls, will make every trip a pleasure - even with a carload of passengers. The system features an AM/FM radio and, on the GLX, 6-disc changer.

Toyota is committed to vehicle safety. That’s why we established the Global Outstanding Assessment (GOA) passive safety assessment programme. First we find the toughest safety standards in the world, then we exceed them.

Global Outstanding Assessment (GOA) body

Built around a unique Safe-T-Cell, the All New Toyota Tarago gives your whole team the protection they deserve. Safe-T-Cell is an energy absorbing structure, designed to help reduce impact upon the cabin, providing occupants with increased protection. Designed, tested, and manufactured to meet Toyota's stringent Global Outstanding Assessment (GOA) guidelines, All New Tarago incorporates Head Impact Protection (HIP), side door anti-intrusion beams, reinforced beams in the floor and roof, front crumple zones, collapsible steering column, and. It even includes a host of frontal pedestrian protection features for minimising impact in the event of a collision.

ABS with BA & EBD

Transporting seven to eight passengers is a heavy responsibility… literally. That's why Toyota’s Anti-skid Braking System (ABS) is standard on all models. Complete with Brake Assist (BA) and Electronic Brake-Force Distribution (EBD), ABS helps you stop quickly and safely, under any conditions.

Anti-skid Braking System (ABS) – ABS prevents your wheels from locking up, so you're less likely to skid. Wheel lockup is a major cause of accidents because steering control is lost as soon as the front wheels lose their grip.
Brake Assist (BA) – BA helps you apply optimum braking force during an emergency.
Electronic Brake-Force Distribution (EBD) – EBD dynamically distributes braking force based on vehicle load.

Dual front airbags standard

Protecting your occupants is a priority at Toyota. Consequently, both All New Tarago models come standard with driver and front passenger SRS (Supplemental Restraint System) airbags. And with the GLX, you also get driver & passenger side airbags, full-length side curtain-shield airbags and driver’s knee airbag standard. (These airbags are available as part of the optional Enhanced Safety Pack on the GLi.)

Pre-Crash Seatbelt System

With the All New Tarago, seatbelt safety gets even better. Tarago GLX (and the GLi with the Enhanced Safety Pack option) boasts Toyota’s new Pre-Crash Seatbelt System. Using information from the electronic Brake Assist system, electric motors pre-tension the front seats in anticipation of a collision if a sudden quick, hard push on the brake pedal is detected.

Stylish & aerodynamic mono-form design

The All New Tarago is an undeniably stylish People Mover. Built for the needs of the contemporary family or the progressive corporation, it also reflects their sophistication, offering large, projector style and multi-reflector headlamps, centre-ridged front bonnet, sporty bumpers, dynamic front-to-back lines, rear spoiler, large side and rear windows, and wrap-around multi-reflector rear combination lamps.

Front fog lights standard

Don't risk the safety of your family or clients in foggy conditions. Every All New Tarago comes standard with front fog lights built within the front bumper, giving you much clearer visibility (unlike conventional headlights which actually reduce visibility). So whether it's early morning commuter driving or a holiday road trip, you can drive safely and confidently.

UV-cut tinted windows

Enjoy increased driver and passenger comfort, decreased glare, and enhanced driving safety with UV-cut tinted side and rear windows standard on the All New Tarago. Tinted windows help make every journey a pleasure. What's more, they also help extend the life of your upholstery.

Dual Projector and multi-reflector halogen headlights

All New Toyota Tarago takes no chances with visibility. Day or night, rain or shine, you'll see clearly and be seen clearly thanks to dual projector and multi-reflector halogen headlights, standard on all models. Featuring manual leveling capability, All New Tarago's headlights can be focused on the road and directly ahead when the vehicle is fully loaded, delivering optimum visibility and ensuring oncoming drivers experience no unnecessary glare.

2.4-litre VVT-i engine

A true People Mover requires an engine with true power to move. That's why the All New Tarago features an enhanced
2.4-litre in line 4-cylinder VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing with intelligence) petrol engine, delivering 125kW of power. VVT-i allows continual variations of the intake valve timing, creating optimal engine output under all operating conditions. And with a light engine featuring aluminium componentry and an intelligent electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission (ECT) with Sequential gear shift control, the Tarago delivers inspired fuel economy. ECT learns your driving style while the transmission is capable of holding gear on hills rather than ‘hunting’. This gives you better acceleration up-hill and more engine braking down-hill.

Smooth ride

The All New Tarago is now smoother than ever, thanks to completely redesigned suspension mechanics. The new design increases tension and strength, while decreasing friction and weight, resulting in a much more comfortable, more stable ride, even on rough roads with a full load of passengers. It features McPherson strut suspension at the front and torsion-beam rear suspension, calibrated and tuned for Australia's local roads and subjected to rigorous all-weather, on-road testing prior to sign-off. What's more, advanced aerodynamics reduce wind turbulence and noise, for a quieter, smoother ride.

Toyota and the environment

Toyota believes in a future for our children. In fact, we became the first car manufacturer ever to receive the United Nations Global 500 Award for outstanding contributions to the environment. The All New Tarago boasts VVT-i engine technology and Electronic Controlled Transmission (ECT) with high efficiency lock-up torque converter. It incorporates recyclable materials wherever possible, with a wide range of its parts made from reusable sources. And it contains minimal quantities of lead and PVC, as Toyota's highly recyclable
Super Olefin Polymer has been used in place of plastic
wherever possible.

Electric power-assisted steering

On the All New Tarago, even the power steering is environmentally conscious! Because it's electric, Tarago's advanced power-assisted steering minimises fuel consumption and eliminates the need for hydraulic oil in the steering system, simultaneously saving you money and reducing emissions.
