New Hilux vs Old Hilux - An Expert's Opinion on What's Changed

[@naar_kie]

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.

[@grimmaven4425]

+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.

[@mackaymckay4957]

a . Kgadile Masemola CV MN

[@djorksolo8544]

Kgadile Masemola yeah so true! The turbo sound on the old one is just so strong whistling but so good!

[@djorksolo8544]

Grim Maven every turbo have is sound, but honestly the new Hilux turbo sound isn't strong as the old one. Big difference!

[@CobaltKiller_ZA]

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😐

[@SFSideburns]

If he has knowledge and expertise he kept it to himself. Not a single in depth information, just general unfounded statements.

[@jackrambo1999]

I agree hahahaha

[@idky2685]

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

[@VincentNyingi]

Morgan Williams can’t beat the D4D. Love my Ute. Hilux 2014 SR5

[@AdamAus85]

I think the new Hilux looks great and it finally has a nice interior.

[@mattybwrblombo71]

The interior on the new hilux is like a yaris

[@ジェームズマイク-s7t]

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.

[@rajivxx1301]

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.

[@rodneyclinton1751]

It does not matter if it is old or new the hilux will be the best pick up truck for ever

[@theozpr1113]

👍👍👍

[@BenzinioB]

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!

[@campampates]

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.

[@BullyBoxer]

The new ones are the most underpowered truck on the market.

[@stepaman]

I dream about the old one... one day.....

[@njorogevince6259]

Both the new & the old look good but the new one looks prettier..

[@workapp3901]

The hilux is for practical people. Function over form

[@davidrobert3130]

can you found your turbo on your old hilux?

[@johnmitchell7767]

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

[@isuzu008]

I would take either Hi Lux over the Tacoma if they were available in the U.S.

[@cxvii6812]

Why

[@tonesbones502]

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.

[@Cowboy15149]

[@thomsenpelzer6625]

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.

[@thomsenpelzer6625]

+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.

[@thomsenpelzer6625]

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.

[@thomsenpelzer6625]

***** 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.

[@RoofieTV]

Love the design of the new Hilux, still don't have it in austria though ._.

[@mhe0815]

+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...

[@savagegarage-rawautomotive3355]

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...

[@osd3218]

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!

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.
