Overview
The Toyota Rush 2025 is a compact 7-seater SUV that fits between compact crossovers and larger SUVs. Owners and dealers note that it feels like a practical family vehicle for people who want extra seats and ground clearance without going all the way to something as big (and expensive) as a Fortuner. Toyota Rush offers a 1.5L 2NR-VE petrol engine, rear-wheel drive and 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic, with seating for seven and a 45L fuel tank.

Pros
Owners report that the high ground clearance and RWD layout make it feel more at home on bad roads and steep approaches than many low crossovers7 seats give flexibility for school runs, staff transport or extended family trips without needing a vanFuel economy is generally reasonable for a boxy 7-seater, with owner reports in similar markets often mentioning mid-teens km/L in mixed use when driven sensiblyOwners often highlight Toyota’s reputation for reliability and easier parts availability compared to some newer Chinese SUVsA tall driving position offers good visibility over traffic and around junctions
Cons
The 1.5L engine is adequate but not strong; with seven people and luggage, Owners report acceleration can feel modest, especially on uphill stretchesSome owners describe the ride and refinement as a bit firm and ‘pickup-like’ over sharp bumps compared to monocoque crossovers, especially in the third rowDriver Insights

Driver reactions to the Rush lean strongly toward practicality. Many owners describe it as a vehicle you buy when you “need” seats and ground clearance more than you “want” performance. Rather than quoting hard performance numbers, users tend to talk about how it behaves in real situations. On long dual-carriageway or expressway segments, local owner reports indicate that behaviour is stable at typical cruising speeds, especially with five passengers and luggage. Drivers who often carry full loads simply learn to plan overtakes a bit earlier and avoid aggressive high-speed driving. This is frequently mentioned by owners who mainly value the confidence of sitting high and having space for their family over outright speed.
