Net in Handrat -
Personally, Off Road the 2.4 is also better, with Low down Torque and a lot more control.
Dit het my al baie speed fines gespaar !!

Will do Petri, have not done a lot of open road driving so far but what I can say it is way better than a friend's 2.2 Ranger / will keep you posted.
The SR is the plain one (ideal for Famers and Construction) and slightly more expensive because it has 7 A/bags as appose to the SRX's three.
I must admit...I'm bit still confused here..
(I have the online Toy comparison, catalogue and brochure open here)
Hill Assist Control (HAC) std (SRX optional)

I got the same reply when making inquiries yesterday.
So far I'm happy with the vehicle. It is surprisingly light on fuel and I enjoy the torque in traffic. Very quiet and relaxing / cant wait to take it out on a long trip and some some off road driving.
Thanx all for the clarification.
Just an interesting article I picked up:
My dealer pal invited me to drive a 2,4 SR to Reitz a while back, and return with a 2,8. The 2,4 was a demo with about 7000km on, the 2,8 was brand new.
The 2,8 is great...nice features etc etc, and it feels a little bit more "driveable" on the open road.
Eks nou so deurmekaar ek loop koop sommer 'n Ford

The extras of the SRX is cosmetic .... and the 6k will go some way towards a nice radio ...
I pulled the trigger on a 2,8 Manual......at a VERY good price.
Although, must say, it was very very VERY nearly the 2,4 Diesel. GREAT engines!!!
So.......al julle Witbankers - los uit daai wit Raider Manual!!!!
Die SR is BAIE nice Chris........hy's daai "4x4 only" tipe no frills DC. Die SRX is great waarde vir geld.Maar die Raider is veiliger as die SRX, en hy het KLOMP klein klein goedjies wat vir my gaan werk.
Daai rear seat wat bv 60/40 split............groot issue vir my. Want ek bere my "plaas goed" - flits en verkyker - onder die een seat se gat, en my "werkgoed"- GPS - onder die ander seat. Ek hoef dus net een seat op 'n slag op te tel, nie die hele solid bench nie. KLEIN issue, ek weet...........maar slaan daai rear seat op en af elke dag vir 4 jaar, en die issue is bietjie groter.
Sy kap my toe "ag Bokkie jy werk hard, ek soek glad nie ander Kombi nie, bederf jouself".
So.....die Lang Blond en ons nageslag is lekker. Sy gaan ook WEER maak of sy my glo as ek vir haar se dit was 'n "bargain, ek konnie nee se nie".
My laaities Sev en Jomar vermoed iets.......hulle meen nogals ewe windgat hulle kan nou met die DC gaan jakkalse roep "dan hoef ons nie die 223 op die Cruiser se dash te sit nie". Not gonna happen.
Ek moet net eers daai shade net gaan vasmaak dat die voeltjies nie op die bakkie skyt nie. En 'n rol swart sakke gaan koop wat ek op die seats sit totdat die Escape covers kom. NIEMAND gaan OOIT op die "bare seats" sit nie. Eks nogal 'n kwaai pyn innie gat met my eie karre. Te erg, ek weet.
Die ou by Toyota weet ook - jy haal nie plastiek van die seats af as jy hom PD nie. Ek vat hom NET so, daai plastiek bly op.
Regte ou pyn innie gat. Maar andersins 'n vreeslik oulike geaardheid
