- BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A TOYOTA HILUX FROM OSV: bit.ly/3wZJ69t
Toyota's Hilux pick-up has always been unbreakable, capable and sensible. But aspirational? Possibly not. This improved version of the eighth generation model might be though. It looks more purposeful, there's more power if you want it and the cabin has been upgraded. But throughout, all the old toughness still remains.

Background
Think of a pick-up and it's quite likely that you'll be picturing a Toyota Hilux. This model has, after all, been a dominant presence in the global pick-up market for around half a century. Around 18 million examples of this truck have been produced in that time and most of them are still pounding the roads and unmade tracks of the 172 countries across the world where this model is sold. This eighth generation 'AN 120'/'AN130' version was first launched in 2016, but was substantially upgraded four years later to create the model we're going to look at here.
In its lifetime, this model line has faced and overcome many significant challenges. This is, after all, the vehicle Jeremy Clarkson and Top Gear drowned, threw from the top of a tower block and still drove home. It was the first vehicle to be driven to both North and South Poles. It's conquered the Antarctic, the slopes of live volcanoes and the gruelling Paris-Dakar rally. It is, in short, for everyone from suburban builders to Libyan freedom fighters, a pick-up trusted the world over to get the job done, which is why it's still Europe's best selling model in this segment. Now though, it's a good deal smarter, though Toyota insists that none of the Hilux's essential toughness has been compromised. Still, you might now value this pick-up too much to subject it to the worst excesses.
Driving Experience
From the original the launch of this MK8 model, the key change was the introduction of Toyota's 2.4-litre D-4D Global Diesel (GD) engine - and that still remains the line-up's core powerplant. Rather surprisingly, from the introduction of this model, the Japanese maker chose not to give our market the gutsier 2.8-litre diesel it offered to Hilux buyers in our countries - but we get it now. The 2.8 offers 201bhp and 500Nm of torque and can accelerate to 62mph in 10 seconds - up to 3.2 seconds faster than the 150bhp 2.4-litre unit. The more powerful 2.8-litre engine is aimed at customers who require a vehicle that's appropriate for both business and personal use - and those wanting an extremely capable leisure vehicle. It's available with either six-speed manual or automatic transmission.
All Hilux variants have all-wheel drive. This is a part-time 4WD system that operates in rear-driven two-wheel drive on tarmac, but you can shift on the move into the 'H4' high range 4WD setting at speeds of up to 31mph, should conditions worsen or you be about to turn onto a muddy track. For really boggy off road work, you're going to want to further consider the possibility of switching into 'L4' low range, again something that's possible on the move, but this time at much lower speeds of up to 5mph. The Hilux is designed to tackle the toughest off-road conditions, with a 29-degree approach angle, 26-degree departure angle and 293mm ground clearance (Double Cab models). It's also capable of wading to a depth of 700mm.
On tarmac, you'll need to remember that the rear suspension is still leaf-sprung, so it can't match the ride quality of Nissan's rival coil-sprung Navara. This pick-up handles secondary route tarmac undulations reasonably for LCVs of its type though, something aided by a clever 'Pitch and Bounce Control' system that automatically adjusts engine torque to suit the road surface.

#ToyotaHilux #BestPickup #CarReview - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
This is a proper rewiew, not alt of the nonsens other car journalists do. I don't care if it has scratchy plastic or soft materials to touch. I want the techs. This is hands down the best ever.
Many thanks for watching! If you haven't subscribed yet, it really helps us out: bit.ly/319ZKoT
I'm just 22 Minutes in right now, but this is hands down the best review of this truck I could find (from all english and german ones there are).
I’ve ordered a hilux after a lot of research and deliberation. This review does not leave anything out.
That's brilliant to hear, Jack. We aim to provide the most comprehensive reviews out there! Enjoy your new pickup 👍
My Hilux Rogue 2.8 arrived end of last month..So damn satisfied by it’s overall performance👍👍👍💪💪💪
U won’t regret it👍
Its tough as nails
Ordered mine as well. A painful wait until late February!
The best reviews about a vehicle without doubt, no clever stuff just tells you everything you want to know without trying to be clever. If I had to buy one vehicle to last the next 25 years the HIlux would be it ❗️
Thanks Mark, that's great to hear! 👍 Are you interested in getting a Hilux soon?
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply I was looking at getting a HIlux late last year but 2.4 engine was just so slow ❗️ So I instead bought a new Civic Type R ❗️ your reviews are honestly the best 👍🏻
My boss just gave me one its a sick car
In white
A thorough and comprehensive no nonsense review, thank you. 👍🏻
Ill be pulling the trigger on one of these in the near future.
Great to hear! When you're ready to get the ball rolling, our Vehicle Experts can find you the best deal 👍 Fill-in this quick form and we'll get in touch: bit.ly/39YHCml

A lot has changed since the year 2002 when I had and sold my hilux in 2016..Had a rav4 since and now just ordered the SR5,I must admit I’m a bit excited after watching this video..I wasn’t fussed on previous models.Toyota has upped their game.
That's fantastic news, we hope you enjoy your new vehicle! Be sure to subscribe for the latest motoring content: bit.ly/319ZKoT
I have a 2.4 and a 2.8ltr Toyota Hilux and for normal use one cannot tell the difference.
I would notice the difference when towing my 4 tonne Kubota digger and trailer probably.
Fantastic review, really enjoyed that! Thank you! Collect my 2020 invinciblex in a few days!

That's great news, Matt. We hope you enjoy your new pickup! When is it due to arrive?
I am in the US and I ordered our version (Tacoma). This prob will be the last one I buy as well. The future looks different very soon.

After this review last year I order mine and received it in October, I chose 2.8 GD 6, 4x4 manual transmission quite expensive 😅 but love it,
Great stuff, Eugene! How are you finding it?
Very good review. Informative, well presented and objective. Thank you.
Thanks for watching John! Make sure to subscribe so you don't miss out on future car reviews: bit.ly/319ZKoT
This is the pick up truck I wanted I’m my daily travel and exploration. My retirement toy.
The best for my budget.
Can’t afford the land cruiser so expensive.
But I like much the land cruiser.😁
Anyway they’re both bullet proof.
Any kind of terrain they’re really proven than European made.
Quality reliability not expensive to repair.
You can repair and maintain it by yourself as well.
That’s the real toy.😁
No need the powerful engine.
This vehicle is designed off roading ragged rocky muddy floods and mountains.
Not for racing.

Spot on!
Thanks! Interested in getting a Hilux?
Truly fantastic and thorough review OSV! 👏🏻🤩
You just convinced me now this is going to be a proper replacement for my Mitsubishi Shogun Sport (2021) I just sold. If my Wife will also like it (we’ll take a look at it over the weekend), the Hilux is going to be the next one for us! 👌🏻🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great choice! Thanks for watching - make sure to subscribe for the latest in-depth car reviews: bit.ly/319ZKoT
Here in Thailand, the Invincible X is called the Revo Rocco
Great review. Currently driving a 68 plate invincible but that is being replaced by 21 plate Icon in a couple of weeks. I do enjoy driving the hilux, looks like the new Icon won’t be to much different from the Invincible. Only trouble is I’m going to be restricted on the new one😟
Great news about the 21 plate, let us know how you get on with your new Hilux 👍
Love and yes ...
I like a conquest with metal sports bar with 2.8 engine 4x2 A/T.
This is the best review I have ever seen, of anything...ever. Well done.

Does this have the same off road capabilities of s Toyota land cruiser invincible?
Hi, thanks for the review, for the full extra double cab version, does the cargo box protection come together or should we buy it separately? TIA

Hopefully one day some day I have a car like this for my dad
Only issue I really wish they could do a better job with is the front kinda feels loose it probably that's the body roll he mention
Very good but the 'walking around the truck' part as you change subjects is bloody annoying!
thank you for the comment we have passed it on to our team
Your in-depth description on the car review is intriguing. Please, may you also include 2.8 gd-6 4x4 RS A/C model, the top of the range. I would love to know more about infoteinment, connectivity to smartphone 'wireless or cable for smartview' welcome home lights & camera '360 degree view' on mirrors, heated seats, wireless charger, blind spot alert. Please, do the review in comparison with the New D-Max Isuzu. Thanking in advance.
Many thanks for your suggestions, Maclaughlin! We'll take these on-board 👍

@@bedouin75 Thank you for watching!
Can you please do a review on the suv version of hilux? Thanks.
Hi Cheyenne, are you referring to the Toyota 4Runner? We're based in the UK and sadly this car is not sold here.
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Toyota Fortuner
1; With the 2.8 it's definitely electronically limited in speed. It basically hits a wall. I would guess that's capable of 125mph/200+ km/h.
2; You can switch from h2 to H4 up to 60mph/100 km/h.
I’ve got the 66 reg hilux so that’s the new shape and I get 35 mpg out of mine . Q
good
Hi Tran, are you thinking about getting a new Hilux?
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply I like it
Hi , can’t the back rest pull forward? Or only the seats can raise in this vehicle?
Hi Kyla, we recommend taking one for a test drive if you're able to, so you can get a good feel for the vehicle 👍
No the back seat won’t drop forward. It was a good place to store a gun or spare coats a shame really. I’ve got the 66 reg .
Have Toyota figured out how to underseal their trucks yet? Great when new, not so good after a few winters on salted UK roads.
I wonder if they rust as much as previous models and go through coil springs with ease
Hi Trevor, are you looking for a new vehicle currently?
Interesting how Ranger has pushed Toyota to evolve into a more lifestyle type vehicle but still offers less comfort, less features and less tech than a Ranger but still maintains leading reliability…
Thanks for your comment! If you're interested in getting a Hilux our Vehicle Specialists will be happy to explore pricing options. Get in touch on 01903 538835 or book a FREE consultation: bit.ly/3soFVbF
No blind spot monitoring to on the side mirrors
Hi Matthew, are you looking for a new vehicle at the moment?
So, what do you think of the Hilux?
I have this one in my country.
Very good, very practical.
And you have that peace of mind of it being a Toyota.
Huge corrosion issues - don't buy one.
If i'm in the market for a pick up. Hilux would be my one and only choice.
I need one ,how on line?

Good Engine Car Toyota
Power heat button? that's button for more power when driving.
Which part of the video are you referring to? We're always looking to improve our content 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply so a power button would be in the interior when your talking about the interior you said the power heat button is to heat the car up faster in cold mornings.
There's a 2016 review on the Hilux on this channel, and this guy cut and pasted verbatim what the other guy said.. sloppy journalism
Hilux sound looks like hair dryer during open aircon or turbo
How tall is this man? The car looks small in comparison to him 😂
This or the new D max guys? To be used in Thailand.
I spent about 18 months looking at all the pickup trucks in Thailand.
Went for the Toyota over the D Max.
I actually bought in Thailand in November 2017 a new Toyota Hilux Revo Prerunner E trim Double Cab 2 WD 2.4 ltr diesel manual gearbox.
I have had absolutely no problems with it; saying that it has only done 28,000 kms in nearly 4 years.
With the current line up now would go for the Toyota Hilux Prerunner Double Cab (Mid) 2 WD 2.4 ltr diesel for around 800,000 baht because it has the reversing camera.
I shall add a Toyota Hilux Revo Std Cab 2.8 ltr 4x4 in early 2022 if I can get to Thailand without the quarantine crap.
Thanks for the reply mate. I actually decided on a d max v cross in the end for the newer tech but then zero stock levels over here put an end to that plan. So I ended up spending a bit more and getting a new mu X which I am very happy with.
Good luck getting back, wait for the end of the waste of time ASQ shit is my advice
@@marklondonmark5657 I looked at the Isuzu Mu X and it looks OK. I personally would have gone for the Toyota Fortuner given the choice. A base 2WD Fortuner is 1.3 Million baht but a Toyota Hilux 2WD is 800,000 baht. I would not be able to justify the extra 500,000 for two more seats and less storage space than the pickup. I live in Isaan so a pickup is more useaful with regard to carrying 12 farm workers, building materials etc. I did not realise that there was a shortage of new vehicles in Thailand. My next purchase is a Kubota L5018 tractor.
Very uncomfortable to drive. Very small interior. Centre console is far too wide causing footwell to be cramped. The footwell is so small it pushes the clutch pedal too far to the right and causes knee injury.
Sorry to hear that you have issues with the Hilux, Robert. If you're in the market for a new pickup and want to explore options with an expert, do give us a call on 01903 538835 or book a date/time for a chat - bit.ly/3soFVbF
This is some great truck but the Tacoma would be my fit
Only North America gets the Tacoma. So it's not even an option for other countries
The Tacoma is a brilliant truck and I think the design is superior to the Hilux, unfortunately we don’t get the Tacoma in the UK and also unfortunately we only get Diesel options. . . .
Hilux with a 4.0 v6 petrol and take away all that fussy over the top design would be a great option
Q see
Beware!! I bought the Toyota Hilux January last year and is full of rust underneath and Toyota tells me it's normal!!
I get mine washed once a months or after offroad diving
"for everyone from urban builders to Libyan freedom fighters"

@@OsvUkVehicleSupply good 👍🏿 reply, now he must answer
Don't get it wet!!! It'll rust out in no time. Mine rusted out in 8 years from new, Toyota didn't want to know. Worst POS I ever owned.
