Addressing attendees, TMP Chairman Alfred V. Ty described the Tamaraw as a "super work vehicle" and "wonder vehicle." He continued, "Just one year ago, we were honored by no other than President Marcos and Chairman Akio Toyoda to witness our CKD (completely knocked down) assembly lines, and today, we have all of you right here in Santa Rosa."
Ty narrated that the Tamaraw, called an Asian utility vehicle when it was first introduced in December 1976, debuted in a high-side pickup form (with roof), motivated by a 1.2-liter 3K engine mated to a four-speed manual transmission. Its second generation rolled out in the next decade, then saw the updated high-side pickup in 1991, and the third-generation Tamaraw FX Wagon in 1993.
The Tamaraw—through its many iterations—is envisioned to provide "an inclusive mobility solution for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) across various industries nationwide."
