All comes in gasoline and diesel variants, manual or automatic transmission. The SR, SR-J, VX200, VX200-J, and VX240D have special decals; the SR-J and VX200-J have special emblems (a red "J" after the "SR" or "VX200" emblem). There was a special edition Sport Runner with a 2.0L engine, which can be distinguished by its power antenna.

Final revisions to the Revo (before the Innova) includes new front grill and tail light designs, and in-dash AV gear and electric voltage inverters (for playing all sorts of gadgets like Sony PlayStation) on higher-spec Revos.

[edit] History

Vehicle history before Revo:

1970s-80s: Tamaraw AUV
1991(oct)-199?: FX-HSPU
1993(dec)-1997: FX (Diesel 2.0[2C]; Gas 1.5[5K]; Gas 1.8[7K]

History of Revo:

1998(sep)-2004: Revo Diesel 2.4[2L]; Gas 1.8[7K-E]; Gas 2.0[1RZ-E]

Successor of Revo: No official successor, but many consider the IMV platform Innova to be its spiritual successor.

[edit] 1st Generation (1970s to 1980s)

The Toyota Tamaraw (named for the Tamaraw, a small wild buffalo, Bubalis Mindorensis) started as a small high-side pick-up (HSPU) with the 1.2L "3K" gasoline engine, and was produced by the now-defunct Delta Motors, which assembled Toyota vehicles in the Philippines. It had a four-speed transmission. Because of its ruggedness and ease of maintenance, some of these vehicles still survive today, and are sometimes copied by local assemblers to this day. As competition, General Motors, by way of Francisco Motors, had the the Harabas and the Pinoy, Ford had the 1.3L and 1.6L Fiera I, II, and III, and Chrysler-Mitsubishi had the smooth-running and high-revving 1.4L "Neptune"-powered Cimarron.

[edit] 2nd Generation (1980s to 1990s)

The Toyota Tamaraw grew from a small vehicle to a larger HSPU, which also became powered by a 2.2L diesel engine and a five-speed manual transmission. It still retained the ruggedness of the old Tamaraw and is ideal for rough roads. It was then still assembled by Delta Motors. It was in direct competition with the 2.5L diesel Mazda-powered Ford Fiera IV (4th Gen), and the C190-powered Isuzu KC series.

[edit] 3rd Generation (1991-1993)

Toyota launched the Tamaraw FX HSPU, which resembles the 2nd generation Tamaraw, but with a whole host of new features including power steering and air conditioning. It came in gasoline and diesel variants. The Tamaraw FX was assembled by Toyota Motors Philippines.

[edit] 4th Generation (1993-1997)

The Tamaraw FX HSPU was adopted into a five-seater vehicle to become the Tamaraw FX Wagon. It was embraced not only by families but also the taxi business, where it drew unfair competition to their car counterparts. There were two variants: one with a 1.8L gasoline engine and one with a 2.4L diesel engine (the 240D), each with a 5-speed manual transmission. Design-wise, it resembles the Toyota Kijang.

[edit] 5th Generation (1998-2004)

Toyota reworked the Tamaraw FX into the Revo, which now features the amenities of an SUV but still within the limits of an AUV. Initial variants were the DLX (entry level), GL, GLX, and SR (Sport Runner), with either a 1.8L gasoline engine or a 2.4L diesel engine mated to either a 5-speed manual or automatic transmission. It underwent two revisions (2002 and 2004) and two special releases (the LXV and the 2.0L SR) since its launch in 1998. The VX range (VX200 and VX240D), as well as the J-Spec Revos (SR-J, VX200 J), and the 2.0L GSX was launched in 2002. Again, it shares a few things with the Kijang.

Production of the Revo ceased with the introduction of the IMV Innova in 2005.

[edit] Type

Toyota Revo is considered as an AUV ( Asian Utility Vehicle )

[edit] Notes

In the Philippines some owners of lower-spec Revos modify them to resemble mostly the SR (Sport Runner) specification. They can be spotted by the lack of rear window demisters and/or power locks, features found in higher-spec Revos.
