Toyota Racing Development's first Australian creation, the TRD Aurion, is the result of our constant questioning of the status quo. A car that enhances performance in every way, yet maintains integrity in every aspect. A car that harnesses our motorsport heritage. A car that delivers more power than any other Toyota ever sold in Australia. In short, a car that excites.

The signature racetrack inspired 'R' featured in the front grille
is also subtly integrated in the seat bolsters on both models.
This complements the more overt TRD embossed seat backs,
dash plaque, scuff plates, and for the 3500SL, a leather bound
gear knob. The interior of the 3500S, with its red alcantara and
leather accents, creates an extroverted ambience. Whilst the
plum leather of the 3500SL gives a more prestigious sports
feel. Both grades have alcantara seat inserts that help maintain
your driving position even in the tightest of corners, creating
the feeling that this car just wants to be driven.

While the steering wheel takes its cues from its Toyota F1 counterpart, it's been refined to ensure that its grip provides the optimal driver feedback and consequently, the ultimate in driving pleasure. *TRD Aurion 3500SL Steering Wheel shown with optional Satellite Navigation

An Optitron instrument cluster makes for greater clarity by increasing the visual contrast between the meter and the meter readings. It also makes for greater understanding with a multi-information display keeping you up to date with fuel range and consumption, driving time and average speed.

Just because you're driving a performance vehicle, it doesn't
mean you have to give up comfort and convenience. The TRD Aurion features:

- 6 disc in-dash CD Changer with MP3/WMA compatibility
- 8 way power adjustable driver's seat. Plus 6 way power
adjustable passenger seat in 3500SL
- Smart Entry and Start System on 3500SL
- Dual zone climate control air conditioning on 3500SL
- Optional DVD Satellite Navigation with Bluetooth™
compatibility^ on 3500SL

^Bluetooth™ will only operate with telephones enabled with
compatible Bluetooth™ wireless technology (HFP [Hands Free
Profile] version 1.0 and OPP [Object Push Profile] version 1.1
international standards)

System

Manoeuvre into tight parking spaces with greater confidence. Low objects obscured from your rear view can be detected via 4 discrete sensors mounted to your rear bumper. An audible alarm increases in frequency the closer you reverse to the object, helping you avoid minor accidents and scuffs.

*ParkAssist is designed as a driver's aid device only and should not be used as a substitute for skilled driving and safe parking practices. The area into which the vehicle is to be reversed must be visually monitored by the driver while parking.

When you're on the move and pressed for time, this Scuff Guard helps protect your rear bumper paintwork from accidental scratches when loading or unloading the boot. Made of soft, durable neoprene material for cushioning, it folds flat to stow away after use in the boot.

Think statement, not screaming. Purposeful, not poseur.
Evocative, not extreme. The design aspect of the TRD Aurion
is a dynamic exhibition of form and function created by a
team of passionate performance engineers right here in
Australia.

The racetrack-inspired 'R' from the TRD logo blends subtly into the mesh of the front grille. The body kit, including a twin plane rear spoiler & side skirts answers the question of aerodynamic efficiency with stirring design. The front air dam, for example, isn't simply aesthetically similar to Toyota's F1 design but is functionally similar too, providing impressive downforce and roadholding.

Even the exhaust tips, so often an afterthought in performance cars, were looked at critically - did they have to be simply 'bolted on'? To match up to our high aesthetic demands in the same way as the rest of the car does, they've been integrated into the rear bumper.

Four 19x8" alloy wheels and low profile tyres complete the picture giving the TRD Aurion a muscular yet refined look. *19x8" performance alloy wheels (silver) shown on 3500SL with TRD performance brake package

A supercharged 3.5L V6 engine delivering 241kW of power and

consumption of 10.9L/100km^

The astounding powerplant of the TRD Aurion gives a perfect example of our race-developed learnings in action. It starts with Dual VVT-i technology that varies the timing to the intake and exhaust valves throughout the rev range. So whether you?re at idle, cruising or overtaking, the engine will optimse fuel consumption and maximise power output to meet your demands.

The TRD Aurion is the world's first production car to be fitted with a four-lobe EatonT TVS supercharger. So it delivers strong, lag-free boost response throughout the rev range. Because the supercharger is an air pump driven by the engine's crankshaft it spins independently of throttle position, 'standing by' to deliver instantaneous boost on demand.(The boost offered by a turbo, by comparison, will by its very nature, exhibit lag and delayed throttle response).

A six-speed intelligent electronic automatic transmission also helps keep the engine in its most efficient operating range. While a sequential shifting mode lets you control gear changes when you require a sharper response. Finally, a tuned sports muffler offers a revealing and sporty note without being raucous.

A unique sports suspension setup with springs that are lower
and stiffer and a specially matched damper configuration puts
more control into the body, thereby improving the overall
handling performance and agility. Negative camber helps in
that department too, giving the car less bodyroll in corners
and more precise steering. All of which means agro never
overtakes agility.

For those times when the unexpected can't be avoided, the TRD Aurion boasts an array of Driver Assist Technologies (DAT) that are very reassuring. The sensors, actuators, and computing power of Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), for instance, continually ask questions of the road itself to anticipate and control skidding. Say, for example, you're on a winding alpine road when you hit a section of black-ice. Having sensed a break in traction, the VSC will automatically go to work by controlling the engine output and easing or increasing pressure on the front and rear brakes independently, to help you stay in control. Traction Control (TRC) also minimises wheel slippage to ensure acceleration is all it can be. Housed within a chassis optimised for rigidity and pitch control, it's technology that helps eliminate incidents before they unfold.

High friction performance pads and twin-piston aluminium performance callipers (single at rear) combine to give reassurance and consistent stopping power. The four 19x8" performance alloys improve brake ventilation and preserve impact resilience. Wrapped in 245/35ZR 19 Dunlop SportMaxx Performance tyres, they're the perfect link between the technology of the car and the surface of the road. AB-i (Active Braking with intelligence) comprising of: Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Anti-skid Braking System (ABS) and Brake Assist (BA) also plays a strong role in keeping you out of trouble.

In the unlikely event that a collision can't be avoided you can rest a little easier knowing that the TRD Aurion also features driver and front passenger SRS airbags, as well as dual front side SRS and dual front and rear curtain shield airbags. Not forgetting pre-tensioning, force-limiting seat belts and sports seats which incorporate Whiplash Injury Lessening (WIL) technology.
