We are not biased when we say that the Toyota Hilux is the most-loved vehicle in South Africa. Once again it topped the sales charts this year. Indeed, according to the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa, every month Toyota sells some 2 000 plus units more than its nearest rival.
Just watch Top Gear.
Did we maybe mention this? Well, it is Europe’s best-selling bakkie too, even if they don’t call it that.
The latest Hilux engines have recently been upgraded to meet the current EU emissions regulations.
This makes it lighter on your pocket too, and of course the planet.
The Hilux has a 217mm ground clearance, so it offers a commanding driving position, offering the driver plenty of forward-facing vision when on the road.
If you don’t need a van’s capacity for your work or hobby, the load bay of the Hilux should serve you well. Depending on whether you go for a single, extra or double cab, the deck volume is anything from 983 litres to 1 530 litres.
Okay, once again we may have said this already, but have you ever seen one and not thought it looks the part. The Hilux is every inch impressively rugged and modern, its grille and bonnet bulge to the solid tailgate, this is a bakkie that suggests messing with it might result in coming off second best.
