When you're spending $80,000 on any car - let alone a Ute - the 2024 Toyota HiLux GR Sport is just not good enough...
Sure, it is the best HiLux ever - but considering the Toyota HiLux has falled really far behind the Ford Ranger, Volkswagen Amarok and even the Isuzu D-Max, it's hard to justify spending so much. Today we're going to objectively review the Toyota HiLux GR Sport, seeing everything it got right - like the upgraded power and torque, to what it still gets wrong, like the old, outdated and low-quality interior. Strap yourselves in! This is going to be a bumpy ride (quite literally).

Price is truly amazingly good compared to a 79 series dual cab, now theres a vehicle that is a total rip off. The new 79 in auto with 2.8L is going close to $95 on road, and its an uncomfortable prehistoric designed vehicle, so this GR is a bargain, comfortable as you say with up-to-date tech, hopefully its not to intrusive. Guys, as you're being picked up on, those are a genuine rock slider side steps. Sidesteps are the first item damaged on a std vehicle that all genuine off roaders have to fork out extra dollars to replace with aftermarket rock sliders. It's a big expensive. Toyota did a great job as they're really well tucked away, but you can still utilise as a step if needed. Awesome work team at Toyota whom designed them. It's unfortunate that as a spare part they'd cost the earth, as they'd be a great replacement on a std lux.

I sold my 2021 SR5 Hilux and purchased the Gr Sport Hilux after a good test drive over a range of rural driving conditions the you drive rough gravel roads or poor potholed bitumen roads it definitely feels superior to the std SR5 power, braking handling and noise insulation. And by the way they are well constructed rock sliders which are tucked up for more off road clearance not crap plastic side steps that fold up off road that every one else persists in selling.

They can still be utilised to step into the car, irrespective of the hideous attempt displayed here, they're a great practical compromise.

The sliders are meant for off road performance. I believe you're 100% aware of that although you acted kinda weird. It's not my cup of tea (acting) no offense, however I love Toyota Hilux they're one of the best utes for camping and touring in it's segment better than Nissan Navara warrior edition, Isuzu D-max etc. Cuz, with the right lift and little bit of cutting and grinding the wheel wells you can fit a proper 33 inch tyres. A solid 33s on a Toyota IFS utes and 4wd features like diff lockers, A-track, dowhill decent control, 224 hp with 500 NM torque with Automatic transmission. 2.8 L turbo diesel engine is good enough for me including the interior, cuz it's an off road car not a luxury car. The simplier the dashboard, the cheaper and easier it is to clean and fixed on the trail when you're off the grid 100s of kilometers away from civilisation.

@tacticalaccountanttobe 7 месяцев назад

An off-road car selling at a luxury price. I'd rather buy a base model to go off-road and invest the extra money on some proper off-road accessories, like a proper rock slider that can be used as side steps, just like all the other aftermarket rock sliders.

@laloolhouvum1634 7 месяцев назад

@@tacticalaccountanttobe it's a factory slider not and aftermarket slider. It is better than Jeep Wrangler Rubicon slider off the box. Purchase a based model, the upgrade the halogen lights to led, mode up with off road features like diff lockers, hill decent control, better seat covers etc. After those few nodes which comes with GR sports you'll be already spending the same amount of money. What good off road vehicle didn't come with the price of a luxury car? From the early 90s series LC 80 series to the latest LC 300 series, Jeep Wrangler Rubicon/Rubicon X, Ford Bronco first edition with Sasquatch package, Ford Bronco Raptor, Jeep Gladiator, LC 70 series, 79 series. Toyota 4runner Trd pro, Tacoma Trd pro, Ford Ranger V6. If you're so much concerned about the price why don't you go for 4wd like Isuzu D-max, Nissan Navara, Mazda BT-50 etc. Most of them comes with 2 L to 3.6L engine with inline 4 cylinder 6 speed automatic with 126 to 135 hP. How could you expect a full size 4wd, Automatic transmission, with either V6 Or V8 turbo charged engine with features like A-track system, diff lockers, dowhill decent control, Good healights, front and rear camera, some had 360 camera, big 10 to 15 inch display, leather seats, auto adjustable seats, heated or vantilated seats and steering wheels, couple inch lifted from the factory with performance springs and shocks (aftermarket), push button start etc. to be cheap like your 2 wheels drive crossover or SUV?

@@laloolhouvum1634 All blah blah but nothing change the fact that the Hilux GR is a rip off. The base model Hilux also equipped with rear diff lock, same as the GR. All other features that you've mentioned are not essential when going off road. For the slider, just admit it, the only reason they made it half slider half step was to cut cost which is typical Toyota. Don't embarrass yourself to mention the rivals. I was kind enough to just compare within the models of Hilux. All other rivals in the same class offer much more features with a cheaper price tag. I own a Prado and a Everest. The Everest is a much better car in almost every aspect.

We'll miss a functional interior with simple to use AC controls. I've sat and drove in all of the competition and they're all similar.

The only function the side steps are to hit another car without the Toyota being damaged.

Maybe the step is not a step but a rock slider.😊

Toyota made this to sell off old inventory, do not rush and buy! The next generation hilux will be out next year 2024-2025

I couldn’t bring myself to buy the first new model of anything, even a Hilux. This last version is probably a reliability winner even if it’s dated as f* inside. It does everything I want it to and when I factor in the power upgrade, suspension and rock sliders it’s not terrible value. Plus I want to do my own thing when it comes to the tub.

@richardwalsh5570 7 месяцев назад

Most of us dont use the steps to get in, seriously its a slider, more clearance and protection 😊 there isnt much to be critical about when all you have is incandescent light globes and the oh so heavy tailgate. The Ranger you suggest at the end would be great until the engine needs replacing if you can put up with the stupid large screen and the D Max, well extremely noisy and no power. Hilux a win for my money.

Toyota design ethos - "If it sells well, why bother?" Therefore u wont see hefty upgrades

@garrygraham7901 7 месяцев назад

Um, actually it is more a matter of, 'if it ain't broke...' Unlike Ford, which is, 'it don't work, so make it pretty'.

Little easter egg but this is the same GR Hilux as the one on CarExpert's review video.

Gotta agree these utes are far outdated. I’m far from impressed with them. My old one I had twenty years ago feels the same to drive.they don’t handle any different just a little more power.

@economicsolu 6 месяцев назад

All you did was complain about the side step and interior what about the durability and reliability of Toyota? is that not more crucial than aesthetics? To be honest l would prefer a Toyota badge than a ford badge every day of the week and twice on Sunday. You were a touch negative.

As usual with Toyota to expensive for a tractor engine with an extra turbo no tub cover cheap looking flares 💩camera speakers stuck on dash no tailgate torsion bar small digital screen 💩🤬

@mattyoz0 7 месяцев назад

Or you could just by a ford and have your engine already replaced. There's a reason people buy these utes.

It's Just fascinating you the Gr hilux is underpowered and how in a comparison of the 150 kw version in the ridiculously basic 70 series is way better than the V8. What load of crap you guys come up with I would not let you guys review a whipper snipper
