- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 เม.ย. 2024
- The Toyota Hilux Champ is the latest derivative from the Hilux pickup truck lineup, and features a funky front-end design which gives it an eye-catching and modern appearance. It also features a large number of conversion possibilities, whether for commercial or recreational purposes.
In this video we review the entry-level variant with long wheelbase priced at Bt527,000, discussing the pros and cons of this new model from Toyota.
Short wheelbase, long-wheelbase, cab & chassis as well as standard pickup bed (with three-way access) variants are offered along with three engine choices - 2.0-liter gasoline (139hp, 183Nm), 2.7-liter gasoline (166hp, 245Nm) and 2.4-liter turbo diesel (150hp,343Nm) reviewed in this video. Both 5-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission choices are also available.
Thanks to Food and Drinks PCL for providing us with the test drive vehicle.

Definitely! They can also be converted in many ways.

@@kingsley220 America needs to end the EPA. Trump on day one should sign Executive Order ending the EPA, FBI, ATF, etc.
@@kingsley220 Hilux Champ here in the Philippines is the All-New Toyota Tamaraw.
@@kingsley220What’s the Payload Capacity of this Truck?
American dealers will over price this
I'd rather have this than any of the pickup trucks that are on sale in the US market today.
I agree. There is nothing for sale in the US I am interested in at this time.
Blame CAFE standard. Bigger, fatter vehicles need to meet less MPG, who in their right mind designed that formula. Vote for Trump in november so we can rid of those idiots in the EPA.
@@khonjel_singh Biden is crap. That tells you how shitty Trump is when Biden can look so damn good in comparison.
I wish I could buy two where I live in the united states. These bare bones capable work trucks look perfect for what I'd want.
For farms, markets, towns, local commiuting, small and some big business, this Champ it's excellent!!
And there's also a Mini Land Cruiser on the way, to compete with the Suzuki Jimny.
Can't wait for it!
I wish these came to America. We could finally afford something. Cars and trucks are too expensive here for most of us.
Really good review, but waaay too many "Thaiautonews" transitions. Having said that, Toyota would sell every one in the US. Lots of people want an affordable basic truck, and that bed is perfect.
Wish these were coming to Australia 😢
I LOOOVE everything about this truck! Toyota, please bring these to Mexico!
I saw one today in downtown Pattaya. I really like the look of these. I suspect I will see a lot more of these on the roads in the coming weeks/months. Great video!
Thanks! I've seen a couple already apart from this one. A lot will be seen in the coming months for sure.
@@kingsley220 Toyota Motor Corporation Chairman Akio Toyoda announced during the 35th Anniversary of Toyota Motor Philippines that this Hilux Champ a.k.a. All-New Tamaraw will be produced locally in the Philippines as a Completely-Build Unit or CBU at Toyota Santa Rosa Factory.
That's what tradies need in Australia and New Zealand. Nice work horse.
I like it a LOT! I think the little 2.4L diesel suits this truck well. I like what what I see a lot for the price, I don't think the interior is bad at all considering that the most important things are reliability and capability. As for the basic styling, I LOVE IT! We live in an era of overly fancy trucks, this is a tough looking basic truck and I like it for it.
No Frills, No BS work ute. These would sell like hotcakes in Aus as trade fleet vehicles and for apprentices. i hope they get here.
Hello from Slovenia, EU. This would be the perfect truck for my farm activities. To bad its not comming over here.....
Wow this is the first comment from Slovenia! Thanks!
@@kingsley220 Greetings to Thailand.❤
Sadly, they are not going to ship the Champ to Europe as long at they are convinced you are willing/capable of paying for the regular Hilux (because we are all filthy rich right!).
The Champ only "happened" in Thailand because the price of the regular Hilux was too high and didn't sell there.
Maybe some other maker is going to catch up on the fact that people everywhere need a basic rugged commercial vehicle to get the job done.
Dacia or maybe Tata, will pickup on this.
In turn, this could force Toyota to ship the Champ to the rest of the world.
@@stoissdk I think it's not offered in the US and they don't even get the Hilux either (get the Tacoma instead). This Hilux Champ is doing very well in Thailand. It's not perfect but it does open a lot of opportunities for Toyota.
@@kingsley220it’s not being sold in America because of chicken tax
Those same tail light have been on many many commercial vehicles here in Australia, they were always a standard "Stanley" part.
People will complain about lack of refinement but, like a Jeep Wrangler, you’re buying what you’re buying. Don’t expect a 300 series. I’m sure, in the Australian market (and most others) that tray will swapped/customised ASAP so if Toyota wants to save $ on tail lights, go ahead.
I’m looking forward to the 4x4.
Hopefully this goes everywhere in the world eventually
It would be nice if we could get vehicles like this in the USA, it would be a perfect vehicle for me, the only additions I would need is a sun visor for the passenger and heat since neither is supplied on these vehicles, but it comes with AC.
it looks like you can fit a standard plywood size there base on the dimension of the bed. nice
Kingsley great review, please Toyota bring these lil trucks to the US!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
Toyota should make a global model, South Africa is thirsty for a pick up like this. Especially for commercial use.
@thaiautonews Hilux Champ in Thailand is also known as Hilux Rangga. In the Philippines, Hilux Champ is also known as the All-New Toyota Tamaraw.
Need this in Europe!
No Brasil será um sucesso de vendas.
Great review. How does this truck stack up against the Suzuki Carry?
I think it's more refined to drive than the Carry and has more cab space.
Need these in Canada. We just get overpriced Mexican tacos.
LOL
As a Canadian I would die to buy the Hilux. Man if only Canada adopt EU standards we could get our hands on small trucks like these legally
Would love to see these start replacing Suzuki Super Carries in Vietnam
That would be great
Im not a truck guy but those would look awesome in a lift kit.(not those crazy high ones)
Hope it will be sold in Ph
Like this LEGO model a lot
LOL!
Toyota 4x4 styling is looking proper👍
@thaiautonews HOW’S THE FUEL ECONOMY of this Hilux Champ in the city and highway?
According the the official Eco Sticker it does 7.8l/100km in the city and 6.4l/100km on the highway, averaging at 6.9l/100km.
Should there be a "Buyers beware" sign up front. Honestly, if I had watched this video before hand, probably would get the Revo.
Top
Toyota would sell about 500k of these per year in the usa
That thing's about perfect, albeit rough in styling and some build issues.
I think they were going to make a 4x4 version and van design, too.
The fuel filler is pretty standard for a cab chassis truck.
By the time they made this emission and added the safety rules for the US it would be $35000 dollars !
Trd pro version please
time to wait until 2050 to get these imported
nice
Gotta move to thailand xD
@11:54 They cheaped out on the rev counter. It has nothing to do with being a commercial vehicle. That's how you know they were penny pinching in the R&D department. 😉
This would solve so many problems here in the US which is exactly why we’ll never see it.
Toyota did a reboot👍 back to basics 😏 Used the formula of what made Hilux what Hilux is today, the most favourable Pickup/Truck world wide "We Love It" This version totally reminds me of the second generation Hilux RN25, a perfect tool meant to do what it's designed for reliably & economically, "Yes" need for improvement is required here & there as mentioned on the content & hope the engineers do note this areas but I'm Confident what Toyota is know for "KAiZEN" that shall surely happen, hope Toyota market's the "Champ" worldwide & makes it look more like the RN25/RN30 plus known quality. That's my take, definitely this one shall be a hit, Cheers 🥂 Toyota 👍
Do they have aircon or do you have to pay extra for that?
Air-con comes as standard.
@@kingsley220 Thats great news. I can do without a sound system but I need aircon in Thailand.
@@magamike1800 The guys here put a Bluetooth speaker on the console. ^^
Great for people under 6” with short legs and preferably slim built. 😂 nice budget ute
SOUTH AFRICA HAVE TO RECEIVE THIS WORK 🐎 TOYOTA HILUX CHAMP GREAT GRANDFARTHER WAS THE STALLION .
LOL
Nice video but avoid those annoying cut outs
i would love to make it drift truck
to be honest not great for the price, maybe sub 10,000 usd but u could get a chinese brand for similar price and much better specs
Take my money
LOL
I really wanted to watch this video but the interruption of thaiautonews was too much for me
You should just water mark your video if you're going to put that many transitions or animation frames
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🇧🇷
Do they sell in philippines
Not yet but they could be exported there in the future.
@@kingsley220 its bound to be assembled and manufactured locally in the ph, and named tamarraw instead of champ
@@dancubelo415 thanks for the clarification!
@@kingsley220 This Hilux Champ will be locally produced here in the Philippines as the All-New Tamaraw.
@user-hz5zn6fm4w This Tamaraw/Hilux Champ will be on sale soon.
Can this truck easily do 120kmph?
Yes it would.
Basic vehicle with an engine that should last a lifetime. People should reconsider the priorities in regards to cars. With small additions, this could be very popular. If they provide an extended cabin (5 seats) this vehicle is an excelent platform. It is very utilitarian, without the hugely overpriced bells and whistles.
no radio
those tail lights will be smashed often. they need to be cheap.
Clicked off after the 4th "thaiautonews" cut screen. Too much dude.
This would sell so well in Malaysia but Toyota Malaysia being Toyota Malaysia they don't wanna give us new models or more varieties of models and trim levels to choose to sAvE cOsT oN pRoDuCtIoN.
Like for example we just only got the new HiAce, which was on sell in other countries for years already.
Toyota has just announced the setting up of Toyota Motor Asia responsible for 16 Asian markets. Perhaps this could lead to some improvements in the future.
@@kingsley220How does it feel to drive this Hilux Champ?
@@kingsley220 Hopefully.
Imagine The Fat Electrician watching this video 😆
its bs we cant get this in USA
Small warlords entered the chat
Needs 3 places
So i could just pour acid coz theres no fuel cap cover. 😂
This should be the only type of ute that australian tradies can claim on tax, not the absurd Silveraos and Rams.
The transition frame is annoying we know what your channel is called
imagine tossing an RV on that
That's one of the many options available.
they better bring them to africa
They definitely will.
It looks like 3 ton pickup/lorry but its cheap..
ANNOYING logo transition !
Would like it if Honda or Toyota released something like this in the USA. But would say the area I live in it would be nice for 4 wheel drive
It's based on the Hilux so a 4WD version could easily be added to the lineup if Toyota wants to.
The liberals will make sure this truck will never be sold here.
Toyota likes to sell cheap affordable vehicles in Asia and expensive overpriced vehicle to the West. Eff you Toyota. We’re on to you. 😅
Toyotas aren't cheap here either. This one is an exception. LOL
@@kingsley220 This one is an exception. Exactly. A cheap Toyota model not sold anywhere else other than Asia. Again, Eff you Toyota!
Please, PLEASE stop with the stupid Bzzz BZZZZ ZaPP scene transitions !
This is a car show, not a Science Fiction B movie !! 🤮
