2025 Toyota Hilux Champ Review(Toyota CEO Releases NEW $12K Pickup Truck)

[@rdw7545]

5 to 10 years time it will be in every war zone due to ruggedness and efficiency

[@lennylink8772]

I want it in the USA. It would become the most popular truck purchased all through the country.

[@rodneyferguson446]

I know a LOT of People (myself included) that have been waiting on this truck to make it to the US. Right now, I drive a 2002 Dodge 1500 Quadcab w' a 4.7L gas engine and a 2018 Ram 2500 Quadcab w/a 6.7L Cummins. What I need is a Cab/chassis w/a flatbed.

[@Eli_Allen]

I’m sorry that it won’t be coming to the US because our “amazing” government has this thing called the chicken tax

[@luckycruiser]

It wont be sold in N America unless it gets the same fuel economy as a sedan. Thats the reason manufactures stopped selling compact pickups there in the first place. The smaller pickups sold now are large enough to fall under the large pickup guidelines. Toyota pickups from the 80s and 90s with 22r 4 cyl engines were among some of the best vehicles ever made.

[@GeorgeDoughty-m8e]

I will fly to Canada (or Mexico), buy one and drive it home. Great way to break in a new engine is a nice road trip.

[@AutoEdgeYoutube]

That's definitely one way to go!

[@Batman-lives]

It’s what the world wants !!!

[@MapleTreeatdawn]

I want this truck!

[@johanchastain]

We won't get it in the USA.

[@j3i2i2yl7]

Yeah. This video made it sound like it's comming soon to a dealer near you, but I am pretty sure there is no plan at Toyota to bring it here. They are already beating the US automakers, and selling Tacomas, so why stir up protectionist in congress?

[@snapon666]

if it stays a 2 door would consider but for some reason marketers believe we only buy 4 door trucks in US

[@PartNinja]

12k starting price - US dealerships will rarely have the barebones models...

[@AutoEdgeYoutube]

You are probably right!

[@spikes1529]

Yes why did this take so long to come out!!!

[@dk.650]

Years ago owned the namp, Nissan champ 1400. Wonder if there Will be a legal topic.

[@Mericaball]

Can confirm, do want.

[@timothykelley4425]

There is no way they will sell in the US for 12,000. After import fees, taxes, document fees, delivery fees, tariff fees, registration fees, dealer markup fees, etc. It will be 30,000 or more. This is a bs joke.

[@mikeleduc683]

why can't they use there existed trucks. just with out all the add on. maybe a few add ons. like ac. carpet. very few ons. roll down windows

[@ITflyguy]

cant wait for the 8K dealer market increase

[@RafMaxwell]

Lol Im pretty sure the Champ is only offered in 2WD. Bro is talking about offroad enthusiasts buying this in the description. Like, no dawg 2WD trucks are about as far from off road capable as it gets.

[@windrider65]

You will never see it in the United States.

[@crazydaze2792]

@@windrider65 Sad to say.

[@g.r.2985]

This is NOT coming to the US, but nice try 😂

[@thomasdibartelo1232]

What you're not telling everybody is it won't be allowed to be sold in North America it's for third world countries only

[@johnsanders5524]

I like to have that truck if you can keep it at that same price you sell it in the other countries

[@richardsmiley7272]

Nope: I'll take the basic truck. Don't need the features... unless you consider a heater during the winter as an option - although I think that if you are going to sell me a forever pickup you ought to galvanize the frame: we use a lot of salt on winter roads.

[@Mr00934]

toyota ceo koji sato said he'd give us an 8k pickup. you lied koji

[@AutoEdgeYoutube]

Once the truck arrives at dealerships, its price is likely to skyrocket unpredictably

[@marksmanaz]

@@AutoEdgeKZbin Until it is no longer competitive to other trucks on the market. The reliability at a good price is the selling point. If they lose sight of that then they more than likely will tank sales when price hits a peak.

[@strangerous1313]

You repeat youself several times in this video. Realistically it should be a 2-minute presentation. Also, you need to make the narration for what the viewer is seeing. Do better.

[@Happy-tp4jd]

that has to be the ugliest truck ever....

[@AutoEdgeYoutube]

😂😂😂😂

[@BobFord-i3n]

i like it.

[@jysmtl]

@@BobFord-i3n I love it.

[@cliffweinan3907]

Will not make it to USA. Liberal California regulations adopted by 49 states + chicken tax. Climate politics discourage high volume cheap new ICE vehicles. For the USA budget truck market, the used Kei truck market is growing, recycling small low mileage trucks that are no longer used in Japan. These used trucks already made, not using new resources.

[@kennethkilpatrick3758]

The new administration is pro business, anti regulation. So don't be surprised if this makes it to the U.S. Especially if Toyota decides to build them here. With U.S. standards and payroll costs it will likely be $25k+.

[@anderslindstedt9401]

It's really really ugly i think it's the ugliest car I've seen

[@AutoEdgeYoutube]

😂😂😂

[@BobFord-i3n]

i like it.

[@AtomskTheMynahBird]

Yep, I buy a kei truck, not this wanna be

[@darylefleming1191]

I have a kei truck and repairs are tough because of parts are hard to get.

[@jysmtl]

This is not a lei wannabe. It’s a different thing. Kei trucks (and cars and vans) are cool but the Champ is far more rugged.
