2019 Toyota Hilux pickup (ENG) - Test Drive and Review

But can it survives being dropped off a collapsing building, set on fire, drowned in seawater, rammed through a house, and getting hit with a wrecking ball?? Because Top Gear old Hilux survives all that....

Great farm workhorse -- the Toyota Hilux! We have the 2018 G variant. And driving the truck onroad to the city while it is so muddy dirty is a head turner to many as it really looks so functionally, properly used! And in fact is! 20 bags of fertilizer, or animal feeds, or grains, is easy peasy (& that's about a ton) on the bucky, plus a couple of co-workers inside the cab! From time to time, we also use it for long-distance travels. And to manage the bumpiness of the ride, we just load the back with some weight (at least 250 kg) plus driver & 3 passengers inside the cab. Fuel consumption-wise, 13.5 km/L combined tar & rough road conditions. So far, do good! Very functional & very practical for our daily use (under our own condition). Cheers & mabuhay from tropical Philippines!

Great review, I watched it when I was choosing a pickup for myself and I'm watching it now, 3 months after I bought a new Hilux, which is (in my opinion) best value for money if you are looking for a work truck. I haul 850kg of load every day and it remains well planted on the road, the engine is punchy enough even with "only" 150hp. The Power mode really makes a difference when going uphill. The biggest con is the lack of storage under the rear seats (a couple of straps and you're done). A great pickup truck, I would choose it again.

Very reliable, drives excellent even now that it has 187,000 miles on the odometer. If you want a good truck that doesn't let you down get a Toyota.

Is it popular in Poland? Do you have Isuzu pickups in Poland?

[@MarekDrives]

Pickup trucks are generally NOT very popular in Poland, around 3.4k sold last year. #1 is Ranger (900), #2 is Hilux (700), and #3 is D-Max (500). There was a time, when a pickup truck was an interesting alternative to an SUV for tax purposes, but I think people soon realised they are saving money, but also sacrificing a lot of comfort.

Haha- I love your comment about "Toyota ordered a billion of these" clocks- I think they placed the order in about 1983 and all 50 million Toyotas since them have had the same clock! :-) Also you called it "Amarok" at 2:44. It's funny that you feel you must use the step to climb into the drivers seat since the seats are bang on the floor and so low that I would think you could slide right in. Personally, I _hate_ the "legs out" seating position- it kills my back.

[@SuperSokol7]

@@MarekDrives They are not popular in Poland?

[@MarekDrives]

Pickup trucks are not popular in Poland in general. There was a period when people bought them as an alternative to SUVs because of a tax break, which classified these as a "lorry", and therefore you could reclaim full VAT. But as soon as the tax law changed nobody buys them. For Europe this is the worst of everything: poor performance, terrible handling, compromised storage (you can't leave anything in an open bed, because it will get stolen), and on top of it all it's big, and cumbersome to park.

[@SuperSokol7]

@@MarekDrives You can put a cab on the bed and there are many small farms in Poland so I think a pick up would be more practical than a van, that can easily get stuck in mud or fields. Strange.

[@MarekDrives]

In Poland you can tell a "real farmer" from an "EU subsidy farmer" by the car he owns. And as far as I can tell a "real farmer" will never buy a pickup truck, because it's just too expensive for what it has to offer. This is market specific, because those stripped down single cab pickup trucks are pretty much unavailable. There were a coupe of special procurement contracts for some road construction companies, etc., but if you go into a showroom, it's often too high spec to be affordable, and too compromised to be the only vehicle in the family. You can get a van, and a small hatchback for that kind of money.

[@MarekDrives]

Engines with displacement exceeding 2 litres are often additionally taxed here in Europe. For example excise duty in Poland jumps from 3% for 2L. In Western Europe you'd be taxed extra because of higher emissions, etc.

It is NOT an Amarok Marek! You call it this at least twice in the video. Towing capacity is not up to the industry standard for this category of vehicle, which is 3.5 tons. It is even beaten by the Mitsubishi L200 in the UK, which can tow 3.5 tons as long as the trailer is triple axle. Most other rivals have unrestricted 3.5 tons towing capacity. This is important for most farmers, who make up the majority of customers for pickups. Actually on the pre-facelift model, in the UK at least, there was a way to upgrade the towing capacity to 3.5 tons. Not sure how that was done.
