Looks like the Avanza isn’t the only model that has been updated for the 2011 model year – the Toyota Rush has received a similar update. Like the Avanza, the Rush’s interior has been updated to a dark colour scheme similar to that of the Perodua Nautica’s.
There’s also a new front bumper with restyled foglamp housings for the 1.5S variant. On the rear, the Toyota Rush gets restyled tail lamps and a restyled protector plate. Wing mirrors now have turn indicators. The Rush also comes standard with solar film from the factory now – 99% UV cut and 40% IR cut.
Other than the new colour scheme for the interior, there’s a new gearknob design as well as a new better-looking three-spoke steering wheel, replacing the previous version’s four spoke steering wheel. The audio system is now a 2-DIN unit that plays MP3s and WMA from either CDs or USB storage. The third row is now able to be split-folded 50:50.
Everything else is pretty much same old – the engine remains the 3SZ-VE making 109 PS and 141Nm, and the chassis still rides on MacPherson struts at the front and a live axle with coil springs at the rear. In terms of safety features the Rush has ABS and EBD as standard but only the 1.5S gets dual SRS airbags, while a single driver airbag is standard on all of the other models.
- Toyota Rush 1.5S Automatic – RM96,990
- Toyota Rush 1.5G Automatic – RM91,190
- Toyota Rush 1.5G Manual – RM88,190

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments on the Toyota Rush update mainly express skepticism about its value and purpose, with many criticizing its high price, outdated features like a rear axle, and limited safety features such as airbags. Several mention that it appears as a rebadged or modified version of older models like the Avanza or Nautica, with minimal improvements. Some appreciate its appeal as an urban crossover for city driving and its darker interior, but many feel the vehicle is overpriced for what it offers, likening it to stock clearance or mockery. A few comments highlight that Toyota's reputation in Malaysia is being challenged by other brands offering better safety, features, and value, leaving many to question the rationale behind the model’s minimal upgrades. Overall, sentiments are largely negative, focusing on perceived low value and outdated design.
