Turbo Rugger (ターボラガー Tābo Ragā) is the Turborangers' second robot that transforms from the Rugger Fighter. When the command "Transformation Shift! Turbo Rugger!" (変形シフト! ターボラガー! Henkei Shifuto! Tābo Ragā) is given, the Rugger Fighter's cockpit forms the Turbo Rugger's back, the underside becomes the arms, and the sides become the legs, with the afterburners as the feet, the rest forms the chest, revealing the head. The Turbo Rugger's head and chest forms the Super Turbo Robo's own head (with a special helmet) and chest, the legs become the arms, and the feet as the Super Turbo Robo's own.
Rugger fighter is armed with the twin Fighter Beam dual laser guns. As Turbo Rugger, it is armed with the rugby ball-like Battle Ball (バトルボール Batorubōru) which it kicks into opponents and the Big Rugger Guns (ビッグラガーガン Biggu Ragā Gan) on its shoulders. Turbo Rugger can launch itself twisting at an opponent to deliver either a supercharged punch or the Screw Rugger Kick (スクリューラガークック Sukuryū Ragā Kikku) finisher. It was first used to destroy an enlarged Jarmin in battle and was nearly destroyed by the mighty Super-Majin Bōma. The toy version is known as Super Sky Fusion Turbo Rugger (超空合体 ターボラガー Chōkū Gattai Tābo Ragā).

Super Turbo Robo[]
Super Turbo Robo (スーパーターボロボ Sūpā Tābo Robo): The combination of Turborobo and the Turbo Rugger into a powerful robot. The two robots join together when the command "Super Shift! Super Turbo Robo" (スーパーシフト! スーパーターボロボ Sūpā Shifuto! Sūpā Tābo Robo) is given. The size of the Turbo Robo and the Turbo Rugger increase so much in the combination that it cannot walk, though it can move its arms. It destroys monsters with the Super Mirage Beam (スーパーミラージュビーム Sūpā Mirāju Bīmu), a triangular energy wave generated by its hands and visor. It was first used to destroy the mighty Super-Majin Bōma.

Notes[]
- In the toy version, the Rugger Fighter was called Turbo Rugger Jet (ターボラガージェット Tābo Ragā Jetto).
- The Turbo Rugger's cockpit is identical to that of the Turbo Robo.
- Unlike most mecha costumes, the Super Turbo Robo's costume is proportionally accurate to the parts that make up its design. This results in an elongated, gangly design much too large for a suit actor to perform in, hence why the combined robot cannot walk despite being fully ambulatory in design.
- "Rugger" is a word that refers to the sport of rugby. In reference to this, the Rugger Ball weapon and the Screw Rugger Kick finisher are rugby-themed, as well as Turbo Rugger's helmet resembling the scrum caps worn in rugby.
