The Hilux no one expected... | Toyota Hilux 2024 SR5 Offroad Review 

Great review! You explained it really well. Cheers

Great review mate. Thanks I do love me hilux’s. I like the idea of a hybrid diesel.

Very interesting and good explanation re the new tec 👍, but !! I don’t know why but most people including auto journalists, that toyota has a very advanced technology called Atrac that is unique to toyota , it’s flippin amazing piece of tec , can’t go into it all here , but in sand and in high range , u hold the traction control button down for like 5seconds to turn the traction control off ( must hold it down not just push it once ) then the Atrac system runs but does not effect the throttle puts traction to spinning wheels but no power loss , that’s how it’s meant to operate in sand especially 👍💪👊Toyota got it down so good compared to competitors 👊

BTW - the MTS system works in both 4H and 4L modes.

Thanks for putting this up as a review. I wasn’t totally sure about what this slight evolution would mean away from Toyota marketing speak. I also wasn’t sure what the proper spec sheet would look like. I have my own opinion regarding this spec of vehicle design being used as a street pony for 99% of its life. They have a place and it’s not the concrete jungle being driven by accountants or project managers. Thanks again for your effort, opinions and feedback.

I had a 2022 sr5 and traded it in on 48v rogue Definitely a difference noticed especially when taking off from lights No flat spot like the 2022 model Stop start is barely noticeable at all Thanks for the awesome review and well done

Wow slight engineering upgrade

I just ordered one, super happy with this tech in the Hilux. I have a Camry hybrid and it’s such an awesome car, the way the battery assists take off and stops is so smooth.

Thanks for taking the time to explain. I was hoping they would put it in the GR as I am wanting to get one.

Would love it if it comes to Pakistan. Toyota indus please introduce the hybrid systems on new hilux as soon as possible

Very clever stepping stone by Toyota, pre-conditioning all the target markets (farmers and tradies and mines), to associate some form of hybrid with the Hilux brand image in a way that they all forget its even there.

Will MTS system works when rear differential lock engages?

Is the battery a super capacitor? what is the battery capacity? is the battery air cooled? is the belt wider?

The 48V version is $2,700 extra over the standard 2.8L 🤦‍♂️ Is it really worth it??

Excellent video and explanation of the 48v V Active technology. I’m interested in this 48v V Active technology and learn what it is all about, because I’m looking at buying the new gen Prado in the future and it will have this technology. Sounds like this V Active technology, has the vehicle behaving like a manual when you take your foot off the accelerator, and you get engine brake as a result of the motor/generator creating load on the motor to generate charge for the battery, which will mean brake pad wear will be reduced.

First time seeing your channel. Great review, just a note you went into silent mode a few times .

There is already a turbo petrol hybrid engine that’s in the Tacoma in the US it produces 243kw and 643nm it’s a no brainer for the next generation hilux due in 2025

Our infotainment is updated to 9 inch

This review sounds like an ad for Toyota. No critical analysis at all. They have added significant complexity for a very minor, if any, real benefit. Fuel consumption benefit is claimed to be, I think, .4 L per hundred. Problem is the battery needed to run the system cost at least $600 to replace. I know, because I’ve got the stop/start system in my own BMW and my wife’s mini Cooper. The batteries cost even more on these European cars. And I turn off the stop start system every time I get in the vehicle because it’s very very annoying. I think this is really a marketing exercise by Toyota to try and keep the Hilux relevant until they release the new model. Nothing wrong with the underlying vehicle. I’m certainly not criticising the Toyota Hilux as such.

Im wondering why they didn’t add an electric turbo to add to turbo boost at low rpm…

Not wat bowen brain head thinks hey not 4 trades u said it straight

Looking forward to this in the 250 Prado, going to be an epic tourer and family hack.

What about the Tacoma which will be the next Hilux has I force. Catch up

By Toyota website towing capacity is only 2800kg

20kgs 😂 is clearly a extremely pointless size battery

Not a clear, cogent exposition.

Sounds like a disaster is waiting to happen after 5 years of use under the heat summer :( really disappointed with current govs regulations and Diesel engines itself are way cleaner than any EVs on market

48v V Technology. I buy an old Hilux and thats it. Keep that crap at the Toyota factory!

The front end is ass

No offence intended but you really don’t understand hybrids at all, do you? Only what you learnt just before you jumped in?

So a hilux with a bigger battery to run the stereo how tech savvy will change the auto industry
