Toyota Pickup (Hilux)

The Toyota Pickup, also known as the Hilux, is a pickup truck that has been produced by Toyota since 1968. It is one of the most popular pickup trucks in the world, and it is known for its durability and reliability. The Toyota Pickup is a popular choice for both commercial and personal use.

Toyota Pickup (Hilux) Overview

The Toyota Pickup, better known internationally as the Toyota Hilux, is one of the most iconic and durable pickup trucks ever made. Since its introduction in the late 1960s, the Hilux has built a reputation for being almost indestructible and has been sold in countless markets worldwide. The Toyota Hilux was introduced in 1968, initially as a more comfortable replacement for the Toyota Briska, another small pickup. The Hilux has been through several generations, with each bringing improvements in design, power, comfort, and technology.

The Hilux is famously tough. Its durability has been proven in numerous conflicts, expeditions, and even on television shows where it was subjected to extreme conditions and damage but kept running. Over the years, the Hilux has been offered in a variety of configurations, from basic single cabs for work purposes to more luxurious double cabs suitable for family use. The Hilux is sold in almost every corner of the world and has been adapted to various needs, from military use to aid and development projects.

While the Toyota Pickup name ceased to exist in the U.S. after the introduction of the Tacoma, the Hilux continues to be a significant product for Toyota in many international markets.
