Toyota HiLux 2021 review: Updated Ford Ranger ute rival tested!

[@keithwhite9112]

I’ve put about 3000 klms on my new Hilux and love it I’ve had one since 1984 feels like a small v8 in power mode over 1050 klms using 55 litres no city driving.

[@farzana6676]

Pwr mode is really nice. I'm deciding between hilux and ranger raptor?

[@properaussie331]

Hey mate I watched this video a few months ago, yesterday I put a $1000 deposit down on a blue SR5+ and watched this again now. Great video. Thanks

[@Ricky9lfc]

how has your experience been with the SR5+?

[@Abu7929]

Bought one of these today haven't got it yet, but going on the 2017 model, the suspension was bone crunching at the start. Took about a month to settle and it was great after that. So for anyone that hasn't experienced it for yourself take it from me, take what is said about ride quality with a grain of salt, presumably this guy is driving a brand new ute

[@lucasblanchard47]

Man that’s a cool ute! Pretty cool that they have so many bed options available, like the one with old school looking tailgate latches and the tie down hooks along the sides! I wish we had options like that in the US!

Well, we wish we had something like the Tacoma, 4Runner and Tundra here... So I guess that makes us even? Thanks Matt

4:55 I keep stating how essential rear airvents are. I live in a hot climate and airvents only being plastered in the front is so dumbvas it creates two climate zones in the car as the rear is usually warmer due to poor air circulation.

[@granthodges9860]

Still driving a 2012 4x4 dual cab SR5 and never a problem but my only beef is that it’s a bit harsh in the suspension which is not good over a long distance. The extra punch from the motor should be good but I think it’s high time they did something resulting in a smoother ride. Having said that - just anyone try and take it from me!

[@petersnushall2449]

My pick would be an Extra Cab SR5 4x4 with manual transmission, and the upgraded power! Maybe the Rugged X would suit me? Why manufacturers think everyone wants autos is beyond me. If the trans wouldnt handle the extra power, I would definitely look elsewhere, maybe starting at Isuzu?

[@mazbpl]

Was hoping for reviews on acceleration and engine noise vis a vis the outgoing model given that power boost is the only real change added to 2021 hilux. Cosmetic changes are too small/minor to be noticed by most people and hence they dont make the new hilux look much different..

[@carsguide]

I drove the new one against a late 2019 SR5 on the day we tested it, and the acceleration was noticeably better. Just more linear and with a bit more mid-range urge. Noise? Not much difference. Cheers Matt

[@mrmusicmanic]

Yes the older one has the updated dpf kit and has fixed there issues so this will have that as well.

They updated the dpf by fitting it behind the turbo instead of it being in front catalytic converter.... just like the DPD unit on the 4JJ engine on the Isuzu D-Max

New engine block, head gasket, head, turbocharger, 100amp alternator, DPF system and clearly a reduction from real world Fuel Economy of 9.5l/100km to 8.3l/100km that Matt has tested. Id say they listened to the complaints as a mid life facelift for Hilux in previous generations has been purely cosmetic

[@philross1680]

The design upgrades are certainly an improvement over the model it replaces. Mat’s review on the ride still being firm without a load in the back still makes me think my Wildtrack and others in this class are a better ride unladen than the Toyota which in my case (and I’m sure for many other new generation Ute owners) is most of the time. As with all new Toyota’s the recent price hikes are a bit harsh especially with the SR5 + (not even a boot liner as standard!), so I wonder how long it will take Toyota to start doing drive away deals? However overall I’m certain the new HILux will certainly ramp up the competition in the Ute market.

pablo rages each to their own I'm just not ready to switch clubs yet!

HiLux great vehicle - However here is a review of a Toyota Dealer ...... I recently went to purchase a Toyota Hilux at Bathurst Toyota. A day later I was informed that unfortunately my employment contract wasn't to be renewed due to the slow down in the economy as a result of the resent health pandemic. I was there therefore unable to proceed with the purchase. I told the dealer straight away via both phone and email that I would not be able to proceed with the purchase and that I would not in fact pass any finance check as I was now unemployed. Finance had not been arranged through Toyota finance nor had the vehicle been ordered. The dealer took 8 DAYS to get back to me and I was informed that they could keep my $2,000 deposit as I had "interim" finance through the dealer (a joke) In the end they kept $1000. They did say I would get this back if I purchased a vehicle from them but then I would have to go through "finance" again. I have spoken to Toyota head office in Melbourne who were very helpful and did contact the dealer on my behalf however they were told the dealer intended to keep the deposit as i had a signed contract (and interim finance) and therefore could not help me. So in the mist of a pandemic, when people are losing there jobs and facing tough financial situations these people took 8 days to even return my call and decided that $1000 was more important to them (probably meant someone got there commission) than returning it and waiting for a future sales opportunity from me. The Hilux itself is a great vehicle however I would never ever purchase from Bathurst Toyota. There are more reputable dealers out there who put customers first.

What're the figures of the manual ver of the 2.8?

[@MK.uLtrA-113]

150kw 450nm i believe.

[@carsguide]

Hi Dawn - so you're the manual buyer they're telling us about?! Well, you still get 150kW of power, but 420Nm of torque. Thanks Matt

[@dawn2323]

Oh I see. Same power but a big drop on torque eh. I think an ecu remap might be useful. Thanks tho. (this is my daughter's account she doesn't know I use it)

Ford don't mind ... Ranger out sells Hilux

It's a beast. Awesome off road. Ride is firm, but heah, it is a 4x4 ute It's built to do a job, and it does it really well.

[@carsguide]

​@@MBaDog-hn6ot best in class by our judgment is the Ford Ranger and VW Amarok for unladen ride comfort. It's close among the others, and newcomers always seem to see improvements... more on that in a couple of days! Cheers Matt
