The ninth-generation Toyota Hilux is not a ground-up venture from the brand but that doesn’t mean it's not a meaningful improvement over the last model.
The range still continues to offer the Workmate, SR, SR5 and Rogue, along with the returning Rugged X. It’s also notable that both a six-speed manual and automatic transmission are still offered.
A new interior, fresh and slightly controversial styling and enhanced payload capacity headline the changes for this model, but is the new Hilux worth upgrading to if you own the current generation?
In today’s video, road test editor John Law investigates.
