The Toyota Hilux pickup truck debuted in the Japanese market in 1967. For European car enthusiasts, this model became available only in 2005. According to the manufacturer, since the late 1970s, global sales of the pickup truck have exceeded 12 million units. The popularity of the machine is largely due to its reliability and durability. The current sixth generation of Hilux differs from its predecessors, first of all, in its increased level of comfort. In addition, the car began to look much more solid in appearance. Significant changes also affected the design of the car - the manufacturer strengthened the frame almost 1.5 times, re-developed the suspension and made the engines more economical. The Toyota Hilux model is based on the IMV platform, which is a classic spar frame with energy-absorbing zones, a rigid rear axle and semi-elliptic springs. On a similar basis, factories in Argentina, Indonesia, Thailand and South Africa produce minivans and SUVs that are sold in 140 countries. The car interior is designed for five people. Initially, the car was equipped with only a 102-horsepower diesel engine, but later the line of power units was replenished with a 171-horsepower turbodiesel.

Body and interior

The car was equipped with a body consisting of a 4-door passenger capsule and a cargo platform with metal sides. The split design reduced the level of deformation when driving a loaded pickup truck on uneven roads. There were plastic covers around the wheel arches to protect against damage from branches or stones. The front bumper with a slot for the central air intake was equipped with windows for installing fog lights. The radiator grille had a chrome frame and horizontal crossbars made of dark plastic.

The body consists of a 4-door passenger capsule.

There was a flat engine air intake on the hood of the car. The side glazing was covered with an athermal protective layer by default. There were turn signal indicators in the rear view mirror housings. The cargo compartment had brackets for rigging, which made it possible to keep cargo from inadvertently shifting during transportation. The tailgate was equipped with a lock. On expensive versions, there was a hole for the rear view camera lens.

Inside, hard plastic was used, which could withstand mechanical stress and was easily washed off from dirt. In front of the driver was an instrument cluster with 3 deep wells. Between the central air ducts there was a radio tape recorder, on top of which there was an information board. The wide center console provided niches for small items. The interior design was consistent with the commercial purpose of the pickup truck.

The chairs had shallow lateral support bolsters; wear-resistant fabric or artificial leather was used for finishing.

Owner reviews

Roman, 44 years old, Novosibirsk

In the summer of 2014, I purchased a Toyota Hilux pickup truck with a 2.5-liter diesel engine and a manual transmission from a dealer. Additionally, I installed metal sheets to protect the engine, gearbox and fuel tank. I had to buy and install a plastic liner in the cargo compartment, but I refused the protective curtain. Average consumption is 11 liters per “hundred”; the use of air conditioning does not affect efficiency and dynamics. I drove several times over distances of more than 1000 km, and there was no feeling of discomfort from being behind the wheel for a long time.

Timofey, 38 years old, Murmansk

He worked as a hired driver for a Hilux equipped with a 3 liter engine and an automatic transmission. The plastic in the cabin is hard, and the trim parts squeaked at low temperatures and on rough roads. The heater's performance was not enough to heat the glass in winter; after installing the autonomous Webasto device, the problem disappeared. The paintwork on the hood and fenders is weak, chips appeared after the first drive on the highway. At the time of leaving the company, the vehicle's mileage exceeded 120 thousand km, and no major breakdowns occurred during operation.
