Toyota Indonesia Introduces Rangga Concept: Hilux Rangga to be Launched in 2024

Jakarta

Toyota Indonesia is sure to return to play in the commercial segment, by introducing the Rangga Concept, and is sure to sell it in 2024 under the name Toyota Hilux Rangga. How come it’s different from Thailand which introduced it as the Hilux Champ.

Marketing Director of PT Toyota-Astra Motor (TAM), Anton Jimmi Suwandy gave the answer. It seems that the choice of Hilux accessories was not without a plan, and Toyota believes that the Hilux Rangga will be more familiar to Indonesian consumers.

“We use the name Hilux Rangga because we sell this in Indonesia, and I think the Hilux Champ is perhaps less well known to Indonesians,” said Anton.

“I see, so why do we use a more Indonesian name so that it can be adapted to the needs in Indonesia too, I see. So we’ll see the model specifications later,” Anton added.

Anton added that Toyota Indonesia’s specifications are currently still in the finalization stage, and he estimates what specifications are most appropriate for consumers in Indonesia.

“Later, please be patient with the details later. Because we still have a lot to finalize. So what we can say today is that we will launch (introduce),” Anton added.

In Thailand, the Hilux Champ is equipped with three engine variants, namely petrol 4-cylinder 2,000 cc and 2,700 cc, and diesel 4-cylinder 2,400 cc. This supply is channeled to the wheels via a 5-speed automatic and manual transmission.

The vehicle’s petrol engine uses the code TR-FE, while the diesel engine has the code 2GD-FTV. The Hilux Champ has gone on sale in Thailand with a price range of 459 thousand to 577 thousand baht or the equivalent of IDR 203-255 million.
