Born to beat: Toyota's 'indestructible' Hilux is all new, won't stay shiny for ... - Digital Trends
Toyota has introduced the long-awaited 2016 Hilux, a mid-size truck sold in well over 100 countries worldwide. All new from bumper to bumper, the Hilux gets a much more modern look that falls in line with Toyota’s latest design language. The Hilux follows the truck industry’s gradual shift towards more car-like interiors. The instrument cluster boasts a configurable TFT screen, the steering is commanded through an ergonomic three-spoke multi-function wheel, and high-zoot trims can be ordered with a large touch screen that runs the latest generation of Toyota’s... Power for the Hilux comes from a brand new 2. 8-liter turbodiesel four-cylinder engine that makes 174 horsepower at 3,400 rpm and a stout 331 foot-pounds of torque from 1,600 to 2,400 rpm. The turbo four sends power to all four wheels via either a standard six-speed manual transmission or an optional six-speed automatic unit. Once future Hilux owners have picked an engine, they will be asked to choose from one of three suspension setups called standard, heavy-duty, and comfort, respectively. Standard is designed for regular Hilux owners who drive on a wide range of roads, heavy duty. Source: www.digitaltrends.com
