FactIndonesians gave the second-generation Kijang its own nickname the moment it landed: 'Kijang Doyok', after its slimmer, redesigned nose.
The second-generation Kijang (KF20, colloquially the "Kijang Doyok") launched in June 1981, keeping its boxy style with different body panels; under its slimmer bonnet was a 1.3-litre 4K engine, replaced in December 1985 by a 1.5-litre 5K (44 kW / 59 hp to 53 kW / 71 hp), with a 4-speed manual the only transmission, and the 1986 model added rectangular headlamps and a redesigned grille. It sold very strongly in 1983 and 1984, catching up to leaders such as the Suzuki Super Carry and Daihatsu Hijet by offering more carrying capacity and a safer engine placement than the kei-truck-based rivals, and the 100,000th was built in February 1985. In the Philippines the Tamaraw was also sold as the long-wheelbase F30, promoted as an alternative to the jeepney (and copied by Dragon and, via a Ford design, as the Nissan-sold "Bida"); in South Africa production began in 1982 as the TUV, a 2-door TUV Bakkie pickup and a 10-seater TUV Stallion, both with the 1.3-litre 4K.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

Toyota rushed this Kijang to market three years early — purely to beat Mitsubishi's rival Kuda to Southeast Asian showrooms.
In 1986 the boxy third-gen Kijang wagon was cheaper to build than Toyota's own Corolla sedan — assembly cost just 42% of what the smaller E80 Corolla took.
Indonesians gave the second-generation Kijang its own nickname the moment it landed: 'Kijang Doyok', after its slimmer, redesigned nose.
The first Kijang had plastic or canvas windows and half doors hinged on the outside, styled like a pickup with a shed bolted on.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
Cooling the C6 RS6’s twin-turbo V10 took seven separate radiators and four electric fans under the bonnet.
The original RS6 debuted Audi's clever hydraulic Dynamic Ride Control suspension — and enough owners got tired of its leaking dampers that they ripped the whole system out for plain coilovers.
The C7-generation RS6 Avant never officially reached America at all — buyers there got the RS7 Sportback instead, running the exact same engine and platform in a different body.
For a few years, this Outback's six-cylinder trim came with genuine McIntosh audio — the same esteemed hi-fi name found in home theaters, one of the only cars ever to get it from the factory.
Subaru didn't have the budget for an all-new SUV, so it dressed up a Legacy wagon instead. A Subaru of America executive later put it bluntly: "[the Outback] saved our company."
The new Outback's full-width tail light bar has a 2 ft ruler built in, for measuring whatever you are about to load.
This Outback shared Top Gear's Car of the Year crown — an unusual honor for a jacked-up wagon to split with the Ford Mondeo in 2007.
A wagon beat the SUVs at their own game: this Outback generation won Motor Trend's Sport/Utility of the Year award for 2010.
