    This should definitely have much better rolling acceleration. If you floor the V6 at 50, it builds up steam really slowly in 3rd gear. Once you floor it at 75, it moves very good.

    Test drove both engines. V6 is very reliable. Felt floaty, like an 80s Buick. The 4 is definitely louder, but felt more lively and more passing power. Just my 2 cents. Only time will tell for reliability, but as with most things, people want more and bigger.

      If you get a 2.4 YOU HAVE TO DO 5K MILE OIL CHANGES!!! A lot of people will buy the turbo and do 10k oil changes and be pissed when it takes a shit on them prematurely and blame it on the car not their lack of maintenance

      ⁠@@hayden93people that buy Toyota’s are typically more concerned with reliability and are aware of the maintenance requirements. Whereas people that buy a used Mercedes Benz or used BMW for the flashy appearance and then avoid any maintenance whatsoever. The vast majority of mechanics will tell you to change your oil at 5k miles anyways. Many full synthetic oils begin to approach low TBN numbers around the 6k mile mark.

    Test drove a 2.4 turbo yesterday. Came out with mixed feelings. Definitely very punchy and powerful in regular driving compared to the v6 (low to midrange is way better on this), but it was unrefined and felt rather strained instead of smooth like the 2gr. Flooring it was the opposite. The v6 pulls so much harder and is way more linear. Turbo 4 shoves you into the seat initially but really dies at the top end. Turbo is definitely an upgrade for the Karen’s just puttering around town, but a downgrade in flat out acceleration, noise, and refinement. The v6 will definitely be missed. Car and driver also confirmed a 2.4 turbo is in fact slower all across the board compared to the v6

      Those transmissions have intelligence, it does form a driving pattern based on the main driver driving habits, so if you are a passive driver, and you don't smash the pedal every other minute for the transmission to downshift, then you will have shorts shifts even if you are flooring it at first.

      Believe it or not the torque which is over 310 if I remember correctly, keeps it shifting around 4000 if you really demand power but you haven't floor it yet. Also this is a brand new vehicle, it does learn driving patterns so the transmission will eventually adjust the shifting to the driving style

      Motor trend got 8.0 seconds for this turbo 0-60 but got 6.8 for an xle v6 so it’s quite a bit slower flat out. But I’m sure this thing feels quicker in normal city driving due to the extra low end torque from the turbo.

      @@positivepointofview2768 I think I have explained it while back, the engines are torch tested prior installation in vehicles, so they are already broken in and have had oil change, another reason why Toyota schedules the first oil change 12 months/10000 from the day of the purchase.

      @@alvinsimba734 this is incorrect, you could change it every 500 miles if you wish, but toyota care which is the 2 years/25000 miles free maintenance, and that covers first 2 oil changes at 10k and at 20k 😉 i am here to help you out
