2 Answers
The horsepower of the Toyota 2700 engine is 163ps. The Toyota 2700 is a 5-door, 7-seat off-road vehicle equipped with a 4.0L inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 120kw, a maximum torque of 120nm, and a maximum power speed of 5600rpm, paired with a 4-speed transmission. The front suspension of the Toyota 2700 is a double-wishbone independent suspension, and the rear suspension is a four-link mechanism suspension. Its body dimensions are: 4990mm in length, 1885mm in width, 1845mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2790mm and a curb weight of 2100kg.
When it comes to the Toyota 2700 engine, it typically refers to that 2.7-liter four-cylinder unit, with horsepower generally ranging between 160 to 170, more precisely around 163 hp. In my experience working with cars, I often see it used in the Hilux pickup or Fortuner SUV. For its displacement, the power output isn't exceptionally high, but paired with a 5-speed manual or automatic transmission, it delivers smooth and reliable performance. Designed with durability in mind, it's well-suited for hauling heavy loads or daily commuting, producing a torque of 246 Nm, which provides decent pulling power from a standstill, though it might feel a bit sluggish when climbing steep hills at high speeds. Maintenance is straightforward, with routine oil changes and spark plug replacements being the usual tasks. While there are more efficient engines available today, this old workhorse offers fuel consumption around 9-10 liters per 100 km, making it an economical choice. I'd advise potential buyers to check the model year, as horsepower can vary slightly between different versions. All in all, it's not sports car-level performance, but it's certainly capable and built to last.
