The V6 engine offers: noticeably stronger acceleration improved highway overtaking better dune-driving capability stronger towing confidence This engine is particularly suited for UAE buyers who frequently use: highway travel desert driving off-road exploration The V6 also offers a better overall driving experience.

Interior

  • Cabin refinement has been greatly enhanced in modern generations of the Hilux.
  • The interior is still usable, but Toyota has packed in a lot of technology and comfort to make it much easier to use on a day-to-day basis.
  • The dashboard design is designed to be both functional and durable.
  • The controls are big and simple to use, particularly useful in off-road driving.
  • The material is good but not high-quality.
  • Toyota obviously built the cabin's interior to endure:
  • The Adventure trim brings more to the cabin in the way of interior upgrades and more sporty styling.
  • The comfort in the front seat is good for long journeys.
  • A high driving seat ensures good road visibility and the seats are still comfortable enough for a long trip on the highway.
  • The rear seats are comfortable in the midsize pickup, but the high-back seat is more utilitarian than comfortable.
  • Safety Key Highlights Toyota has fitted a decent set of safety features into the Hilux. Safety Features Available systems include: Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) Hill-start Assist Control Trailer Sway Control Rear Differential Lock 6 airbags Rear parking sensors Reverse camera Structural Safety The ladder-frame chassis is a major element in the Hilux's structural strength and crash protection. Toyota's worldwide reputation for safety engineering also boosts buyers' confidence greatly. This is still a big benefit for fleet operators and families. Driving Experience The Hilux's body-on-frame design makes it drive differently than a standard SUV. Urban Driving The Hilux is spacious and comfortable in urban settings. The driving seat is raised considerably, and the steering is still easy to operate for everyday driving. Crossovers may be easier to park than in tighter urban areas. But the reverse camera and parking sensors make up for it. Highway Comfort The Hilux is stable and planted at highway speeds. The suspension tuning emphasizes load-carrying durability, which may lead to a more firm ride than that of other SUVs with a passenger-oriented emphasis. However, as a whole, the refinement has greatly improved from previous generations. Road and wind noise are still there but not too bad for a pickup.
