The new Toyota Hilux, a pickup with a redesigned frame and body structures that ensures the toughness of this iconic car, a striking new design and improved towing capabilities for facing and winning against difficult terrain or the simple stresses of life.
Hilux being a pickup, its key features are quality, durability and reliability and so, along the new frame, a stronger, wider under-body offers greater protection, as all of the components are made to withstand the dangers of every terrain. New suspension and gear ratios work amazing with the new frame for improved handling and ride comfort. This powerful and premium SUV combines work with leisure as it offers a 3.5 tonne towing capacity for Single and Extra Cabs (3.2 tonne for Double Cab), a 1 tonne payload and an enlarged deck area; combined with the new suspension you will definitely have a comfortable ride on your way to work.
Strong shapes and sharp corners are things that define Toyota, especially the new Toyota Hilux. Wheel flare and dynamic side-lines, chrome belt line along the windows and a wide choice of wheels give the power the Hilux has a sophisticated touch as well as the intelligent toughness that is trademark for Toyota pickups. Regarding the power, if you’re not convinced yet, in 2016, a Hilux climbed the podium of the Dakar Rally once again.
Why should you choose a Toyota Hilux as your standard 4×4? Here’s the answer.
In building the Hilux high tension sheet metal is used for the lightweight design and to ensure the strength and rigidity the car needs while sound-absorbing and noise-cancelling materials are used to give the driver a peaceful driver on any type of terrain the car might be. Optimal vehicle performance is given by the AHC – Active Height Control, which adjusts the vehicle’s ground clearance, regardless of speed and terrain. Furthermore, the AVS – Adaptive Variable Suspension contributes to the vehicles stability and comfort.
The electronically modulated hydraulic suspension system (KDSS) provides greater traction and stability off-road, while on-road provides unrivaled steering agility and ride comfort. Also, increased passenger comfort is given by the Spring Rate Control, which manages spring characteristics when braking or turning, greatly reducing the roll angle and pitch angle. Crawl Control gives the driver full control over the steering and makes it the focus point as he won’t have to worry about throttle and brake control, since the Crawl Control maintains constant and stable low-speed off-road progress.
Few more reasons to chose the new Toyota Hilux
Hill-start Assist Control, Active Traction Control and a steering angle display are a few more reasons why you should want Hilux as your 4×4. Your confidence as a driver is boosted when the Active Traction Control is by your side and applies brake force to one wheel that may be slipping, in the off-road cases, and with the help of the steering angle display you will always know the exact steering direction and the predicted path when the Multi-Terrain Select tool is in use.
As for the engine, the Hilux has two available models; the 2.4l D-4D 6-speed automatic transmission (7,8l/100km fuel consumption combined; 7,8litres/100km combined driving and 204g/km CO2 combined driving) and the 2.4l D-4D 6-speed manual transmission (7l/100km fuel consumption combined, 7litres/100km combined driving and 185g/km CO2 combined driving).
