Toyota Australia introduced a supercharged Aurion enhanced with TRD performance parts. The original 3.5L V6 engine has been forced-fed via a bolt-on Eaton (Twin Vortices Series, TVS) supercharger. Locally conceptualised and made, TRD Aurion is the most powerful Toyota ever seen in Down Under. It will shoot from 0 to 100km/h in 6.1seconds, while top speed is artificially limited to 250km/h.

The icing-on the-cake must be the 329hp and 400Nm supercharged engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with sequential shift. To keep this power civilised and tamed on the tarmac, the souped-up Aurion also wears sports suspension, high perforamance brakes, 19-inch alloy wheels & sport tyres, TRD grille, front and rear bumpers, side skirt and rear spoilers.
