- For 2016, Toyota have introduced a brand new Hilux to South Africa. To see just how much the new model differs from the one it replaces, we traveled to the Goodyear 4x4 Academy to meet Gerhard Groenewald, a man who has probably driven over a million kilometres in various Hilux models over the years.
In this interview, we chat to the 4x4 expert about what we can expect from the latest Toyota Hilux.

I still like the old Hilux better, especially the legend. It looked strong and aggressive. The sound of the turbo whistling as you throttle with that nose on the bonnet made it a charmer.
+Kgadile “Eze” Masemola you can still hear the turbo wind with the new one too. i agree the air scoop on the front would have made it look aggressive on the new one.

Kgadile Masemola yeah so true! The turbo sound on the old one is just so strong whistling but so good!
Grim Maven every turbo have is sound, but honestly the new Hilux turbo sound isn't strong as the old one. Big difference!
After just picking up my 2016 hilux today i can say its a major improvement from driving it around the whole day. You do hear the turbo but its a subtle sound but the power mode and iMT makes up for it. As for the front. Its going to take a while to grow on me. Edit: My led park lights stopped working after i posted this😐
My 2010Hilux 3.0D4D is bomb proof and powerful indeed 😊
I love Both ❤
If one day I get anyone of these two..... I'll be happy....
I like them both tbh I think they both look great the new body took some time for me to like but know it looks great but would still prefer the old Hilux you just can’t beat that 3.0L
Morgan Williams can’t beat the D4D. Love my Ute. Hilux 2014 SR5
I think the new Hilux looks great and it finally has a nice interior.
The interior on the new hilux is like a yaris
mattybwr Blombo its still cheap plastics until now the new 2020 hilux conquest top of the line model has a freaking cloth seats. Underpowered engine and still has a little safety feature doesnt have a diff lock etc..but its still nice.
If he has knowledge and expertise he kept it to himself. Not a single in depth information, just general unfounded statements.
I agree hahahaha
I still like the older one
Now that the new Hilux is out it gives us 'poorer' okes a better chance of buying a good used previous generation Hilux like the Legend 45. I still feel there's much value in the older generation Hilux with it's proven reputation.
I like the old one noting to drake in it plus the inside of the old one is so simple 😌💁♂️so it's a true 4x4 cab💖
I love my old hilux 3.0 it’s looking good than the new one!!
Boo
The turbo whistle even sounds richer
I love the old Hilux Toyota Hilux 4x4, the the new model is very beautiful and by driving it is better than the old one.
I love my hilux litre love the bonnet scoop, new one looks like ford and all the rest
I've put 2021 hilux suspension and shocks on my 2000 hilux and comfort and drive is exactly the same as 2021 its all about the suspension
We are lucky in Australia, our hilux is a better ute than the SA model.
As for the looks, I didn't like it at first but it has grown on me. I have become a fan, it's actually attractive in a strange way.
wish models you talking about ?2007 vs 2016 for Example2?
My God, Gerhard, tone done the saffer style
like both, only thing needed is the fuel consumption is the differnce
To those who keeps on murmuring about too much talking.. the Title says "An experts opinion" take note it
The old Hilux looks great the new looks much improved
its my dream truck/car, i hope i can ride this motor in my future days ! but right now i don't have enough amount to buy even a tire of this vehicle !
Someday you're going to
Never give up dear !!!!!!!
May Allah bless you with this truck & more.
Son keep the hope alive,
Hovinesh i
Really prefer the old look it is just much better. In therms of new technologies, well I think it is far better to learn how to drive down the slopes instead trust on the electronics. It is more fun, it is enjoyable and rewarding when you've don it right!
great video
I dream about the old one... one day.....
The hilux is for practical people. Function over form
Love the older ones
The new one has a very smart looking,thats not cool and the old one is like a freaking monster ughhhhh 😍 love it
My dad just gave his 2010 3.0 hilux 🤗
my 2017 extra cab 2.4 with a single axel 10x5 with 1 foot sides trailer with logs on (not a heavy load) it would not pull a way on a very small incline had to go to low range and then stop and back to hi
ok for pulling once it gets rolling
my 2011 3.0 with the same trailer and load on the same incline pulled away with ease in hi range
Old hilux more strong
The older hilux looked more agressive and has a more traditional more desirable Toyota Facia...reminds me of Land Cruiser and it has an air of Internationality.
The new hilux looks like the new Toyota lineup in the US. Take a look at the Rav4 and the Highlander, it looks like a close relative to those 2 vehicles. The facia looks too squished since the hood controls the contours of the headlights and the grill, and the older Hilux was the other way around design-wise.
It does not matter if it is old or new the hilux will be the best pick up truck for ever
👍👍👍
I hv hilux 3.0 2010 model manual. Reliable strong 💪
2004 3.4 V6 still like new 😋
My highlux invincible auto not used off road requires a new gearbox at 77 k miles after iv paid £1200 for 3 gearbox solenoids and didn’t work and it’s been serviced every year regardless
i thoroughly enojed this review
What is the difference between the new gd6 and the older D4D?
Nice
old school hilux still can shit on all of them. legendary 2.7 petrol hilux.
Heavy on juice, but will drive to the moon and back. 210k on the clock, no oil breathing, engine runs like new....still burns tyres in 2nd gear
can you found your turbo on your old hilux?
Both the new & the old look good but the new one looks prettier..
The new ones are the most underpowered truck on the market.
Can't wait to get mine in autumn when having hunting license. Toyota grants big discounts in germany for members of hunting associations. Would be stupid not to buy one. Unfortunately not available in green.
+Nickolas MacLeod 1.500eur roughly. L200 you can get in green and it's approximately 2.000eur cheaper. But is the quality the same? Uncertain.
I assume you're from Australia or Southafrica, right? In Germany Toyota is quite reserved when it comes to discounts. Except for the 17% off provided you're a hunter. Negotiating with Ford was bit easier. After some back and forth they offered 22% and pricing was pretty much the same than the Hilux after all. I think both cars would fit my requirements. In the end I decided for the Hilux. Let's see what happens.
***** I like them both but at one point I had to make a decision. Colleague of got himself a wildtrack with the 3.2L engine. He's happy with it claims the poor quality compared to his BMW. I don't know.
I would take either Hi Lux over the Tacoma if they were available in the U.S.
Why
Love the design of the new Hilux, still don't have it in austria though ._.
+RoofieTV I spoke to Toyota Austria, they estimate delivery times of up to 6 months and for now you can only get the smaller 2.4L engine. Would love the 2.8L with manual transmission, but nobody knows when or even if it will available with that engine in Austria. Maybe have to import from Russia...
same in germany, still only the 2.4 Diesel.... personally i would love the previous gen-facelift with the 4.0, probably impossible to get it on the street in the eu...
Is this the Hilux more like the tundra or the Tacoma?
The new Hilux in this video, which colour has it?!
I'm haven noise in my gearbox but it work perfectly and when you press the clutch the noise stop when you relies your leg the noise come. so what should I do?
clutch bearing. change it
Clutch release fork pivot pin gets dry, replace that at the same time
What's diflock for
No 2.8td in Europe! Only the 2.4td is available! And this is a bad joke
The only thing this Hiluxer (Gerard ) know is APROCH ANGLE. Then he is suddenly a HILUX expert
New hilux rear seats feel less space less leg space the older one
old one is more aggressive looking than the newer hilux
I'm gunna drive my 2010 Hilux until she goes, hopefully by then I can finally afford a small chunk of a land cruiser hehe, probs be a long time from now
3.0d4d remains the best though
Thailand model best truck with turbo Vigo best
I love Vigo
Would like to see you guys compare the new hilux to the Tacoma
I Love Old HILUX
I'm here for comments
The 3.0D4D rules
Are the Thailand models better than SA models?
I have a vigo g grade nd it's a 2006 model with a 3.0 d4d. It's taken a lot of hits nd has had the oil packing changed due to really late oil changes but it runs like a charm.
Gerhard is the great great grandfather of Gerald of rivia
I believe all these reviews and bought top of the range 3 year old (2013 model) low miles Hilux thinking these are bullet proof, tough truks until injectors gone at 65k miles Toyota asked for £3.5k to repair won't even contribute with £1..... although it had full service with Toyota main dealer ,then at 120k miles turbo gone £1600 and so on ......to many to list. .I have not abuse the vehicle .........................NOT IMPRESS in fact disappointed!
I bought my hilux in 2007 it's 2.7 petrol engine and to this day I stil drive it and never broke down
@@andrecooper6466 my father bought a used 1998 hilux in 2010 and he still drives it with more than 400k km zero problems
Should have bought petrol silly dick
Craig D very hard to find petrol hilux in Uk / EU don’t think I have seen one yet you idiot 😁..got Land Rover discovery and defender now I’m happier than ever.....
Unfortunately water in fuel will do that mate, and it is expensive if it happens. I've filled mine from all sorts of stations and never had an issue, knock on wood. Mine has 230,000 on the clock, 2011 D4D, I rip it around town towing a trailer every day for work and would probably say engine is about 90/100 percent good still
Better price is all I can say
Why does the old guy look like mama Odis for the princess and the frog 😂😂
What model is this "old" Toyota? It looks great!
Looks to be the kun26r
Doesn't quite look like the kzn165r
3.0d4d kun
Is the old 2006 2.5 litre D4d 102 hp a good truck?
Yes very my mates has done 260k and he’s abused the hell out of it. Even pulled a 44ton artic lorry up a hill in the snow !
@@spencerh2860 Lol I need some good tyres on it
Old one is so generic looking next to the new one, It looks literally like every other pickup ever made.
New one is great, its actually good looking.
Iss Good car i laik it
The new one is better ,stornger and nicer than the last one
What country is .za?
South Africa 🇿🇦
Weigh the new up with the old on how many problems they they have over time or kz..
Many miles on rough tracks.proceeds to show tracks that look like some of NZ,s main roads.lol
Hilux the best of the best
Cool truck but I prefer the Tacoma in the states better looking.
Why change a model and complete change an excelent engine.? Because people need to look the better and most recent car to show his money power. Don´t forget new refaction market when new models enter.
Duo truk of different the specivication in charachter body stylist and perform of the machines but the same of logo....Toyota Hilux double cabn........
When are you showing the drag race to us?
+Leonie Greyling The drag race will be out this week...
Cars.co.za sir what is the difference between hilux revo and hilux srx?
Leonie Greylinscania
Kamran Khan is branding to take our money, esp we the car freak.
WHY IS YOUR INTERVIEWEE HOLDING BACK ON THE ANSWERS. HE SEEMS TO BE SAYING WITHOUT SPEAKING IT OUT THAT THE OLD BACKIE IS BETTER THAN THE NEW 1, LIKE THE FACE
Is best the 2015 👍
1998
My dream bakkie I hope I can afford it🤔
The automatic transmission of the D4D sucked
the new one still fails the moose test,
Apparently the moose failed the Hilux test too.
U might wanna recheck ur info. Toyota released a software update nd it passed the moose test. It's all down to electronics !!
@@priyanthadissanayaka3922 I know the 2016 hilux 4x4 failed, but they corrected it in 2017
Old v6 vs new v?. Plz forget about mpg. Real Men dont drive no dzl...
Fuel!???????##?##
Hopefully new FUCKEN INJECTORS to
2 years on and it's proofed to be the biggest bucket of shit !
I love the old Toyota Hilux Its better than that ugly New Toyota Hilux
Old Toyota Hilux:100% 10/10
New Toyota Hilux:70% 4/10
I'm no mafimatishon but that isn't how numbers work
Old hilux is good
He is a lier he never drove a Hilux before. This guy never had words to talk about Hilux let alone his 30 years of driving Hilux
zim bel😂
"same same but different but still same same"
So strange - I know what the new hilux looks like (shame), but when you put the 2 together the older one looks like it is the newer one. Pitty to all Hilux owners - the engines might be new and have some promise, but to be honest the Hilux design departments need to be fired. Not really enough effort in the looks department, and no real effort to the 'stance' of the vehicle. This can be summed up when one looks at the side profile of the vehicle . . .eish.
nice bakkies
So much talk...
I just expected several real world tests with both on its limits.
The old one lost always in tug of war and race the new one humiliates amarok and ranger. By pulling them like bitch
nah man this guy is wearing a toyota shirt. couldnt you have gotten some1 whos neutral in opinion
rakgwadi moriti
Boring but bullet proof sums up Toyotas in general
la blanca era mejor en mi opinión se cagaron en la Hilux
I like the old one better. The new one is UGLY
Both failed in moose test.
LINUS2.0 SeMAT no one gives a fuck
It depends on how a careless driver drives like a banshee. But still the safest pickup
What odd look ?
The Australian hilux is better 😂
