The Daihatsu Terios, or the Toyota Rush in the Philippines, has recently been updated in Indonesia. The update gives the vehicle a new front fascia and other new features. The Toyota Rush is a long-time 7-seater SUV model in the Philippines that has yet to receive an update, unlike its siblings, the Toyota Avanza and Toyota Veloz.
