A Modified Dmax, Chipped, suspension, Lifted and all the usual add ons versus 200 series GX TT. suspension lifted and same add ons. Same van 2.9t, same driver. Toyota wins.. other people may differ. opps Dmax was manual. Interestingly the fuel was about the same 16 / 100ks. New van now and fuel 18 / 100 ks Buggar.

Must be a typo with the Dmax - 0-80km/h: 123.0sec

Interesting read John.

Would have been a bit more relevant if the Dmax used in the comparison had been the current model and not the older one with the reduced engine specs. Article is nearly two years old.
