There is already a turbo petrol hybrid engine that’s in the Tacoma in the US it produces 243kw and 643nm it’s a no brainer for the next generation hilux due in 2025

Fun video! I also moved from a J120 Prado (in a high petrol cost country) to a LC 200 full fat Landcruiser (in a low petrol cost country. The LC200 renders my old Gwagon old S-class Mercedes redundant. LC200 out aces them in every way.

Excellent video and explanation of the 48v V Active technology. I’m interested in this 48v V Active technology and learn what it is all about, because I’m looking at buying the new gen Prado in the future and it will have this technology. Sounds like this V Active technology, has the vehicle behaving like a manual when you take your foot off the accelerator, and you get engine brake as a result of the motor/generator creating load on the motor to generate charge for the battery, which will mean brake pad wear will be reduced.

I have the same model as well mate. not a bad unit at all for small bits for the fire, if like me though and you are clearing larger fallen trees off trails it struggles a little. I am looking at upgrading to a 36v version for a little more power or just larger 8ah batteries so it can run longer. swapping the chain out to the titanium version is worth it as it takes a bit more of a beating before going blunt. I have the 12vdc charger for charging batteries which I find does it rather quickly considering, if you are driving while charging them you don't really notice the time it takes.

Hey Graham, good to hear from you mate. I've been very happy with it so far, no complaints. I have found that I get lower temps with the thermo fans when low speed 4WDing, and they really help with temp recovery after working the engine hard. Definitely recommend the upgrade.

This review sounds like an ad for Toyota. No critical analysis at all. They have added significant complexity for a very minor, if any, real benefit. Fuel consumption benefit is claimed to be, I think, .4 L per hundred. Problem is the battery needed to run the system cost at least $600 to replace. I know, because I’ve got the stop/start system in my own BMW and my wife’s mini Cooper. The batteries cost even more on these European cars. And I turn off the stop start system every time I get in the vehicle because it’s very very annoying. I think this is really a marketing exercise by Toyota to try and keep the Hilux relevant until they release the new model. Nothing wrong with the underlying vehicle. I’m certainly not criticising the Toyota Hilux as such.

Very clever stepping stone by Toyota, pre-conditioning all the target markets (farmers and tradies and mines), to associate some form of hybrid with the Hilux brand image in a way that they all forget its even there.

Very interesting and good explanation re the new tec 👍, but !! I don’t know why but most people including auto journalists, that toyota has a very advanced technology called Atrac that is unique to toyota , it’s flippin amazing piece of tec , can’t go into it all here , but in sand and in high range , u hold the traction control button down for like 5seconds to turn the traction control off ( must hold it down not just push it once ) then the Atrac system runs but does not effect the throttle puts traction to spinning wheels but no power loss , that’s how it’s meant to operate in sand especially 👍💪👊Toyota got it down so good compared to competitors 👊

Thanks for putting this up as a review. I wasn’t totally sure about what this slight evolution would mean away from Toyota marketing speak. I also wasn’t sure what the proper spec sheet would look like. I have my own opinion regarding this spec of vehicle design being used as a street pony for 99% of its life. They have a place and it’s not the concrete jungle being driven by accountants or project managers. Thanks again for your effort, opinions and feedback.

Well in this video he was referring to hybrid vehicles as well as this Hilux system. And I agree that this reviewer doesn't have a full understanding of how good the full hybrid system is. Especially Toyota's. It has gone through a few revisions and the latest version are very good.

I have little experience with Hybrid cars, that's true. But I wanted to be clear that the Hilux isn't a Hybrid. It's a turbo diesel engine with electronic assistance, but it in no way emulates a traditional petrol/electric hybrid. Thanks for your feedback though, I will endeavour to learn more and articulate my knowledge better in future reviews.

The battery is designed to provide a high discharge rate, not have a huge Amp hour capacity. Even with lots of use I never managed to flatten the battery using the V-active, and it always charged quickly.

@offroadcrusader 28 күн бұрын
Using a water repellant spray or non-polar substance such as CRC or WD-40 over important electrical connections really helps. Dielectric grease in the plugs themselves helps a lot too, so water can't get in. Best thing is to keep the engine running to keep warm air circulating under the bonnet, which will help dry things out sooner and move water out of crevices.

Hey Todd, loved the video. Love ideas like this. Curious on that piano hinge for the drop down table, about how many bolts did you put through the top of the tent? All of them?! And for the side straps, those bolted in through the roof too? Wonder if a rivnut or plus nut might be another option… 🤔. Stellar idea though brother. 🤙
@offroadcrusader
@offroadcrusader Ай бұрын
Hey mate, thanks for the great feedback! I used 3 bolts to hold the piano hinge to the tent shell. I definitely wouldn't use all of them haha! Very overkill. The side straps attach to the shell, but to an extrusion welded to the lid that joins the canvas to the aluminium. I used a big stainless steel rivet and panel washer to hold them on, and it's super strong! Very happy with it. Rivnut wouldn't work I think, as the aluminium is quite thin and most likely would flex too much and vibrate loose. But I get what you are trying to achieve. Thanks for your thoughts, I really appreciate it. Looking forward to more of your ideas on future videos!

It’s enormous seats eight has incredible off-road capabilities and will last for 25 years. Again the Lionel Messi vehicles.
