Pickup "Toyota Hilux" was firstdemonstrated to European consumers in 2005, despite the fact that in Japan he debuted almost forty years earlier. For all the time of production more than twelve million copies of the model came off the assembly line. Due to its durability and reliability in the market of farm-commercial vehicles all over the world, Toyota Hilux occupies one of the leading positions. Reviews of the owners of this car are vivid confirmations of quality and high prestige.
During the creation of the next generation of carsthe designers intended to make it suitable for work and leisure at the same time. From the driver's point of view, the changes are very important compared to the predecessor to the body structure. The frame was strengthened by almost fifty percent. Moreover, the novelty uses more economical engines and a new suspension, which engineers have developed taking into account higher mileage. Thanks to all this, tuning is not needed at all for the new Toyota Hilux model.
A new generation of cars will be implemented in twobody options - with a double or five-seater cabin. Compared with the previous version, the model has slightly increased in length, and therefore the wheelbase has increased. It should be noted, and high build quality, which boasts an updated "Toyota Hilux." The new designers are based on the global IMV platform, which is a classic spar frame, in front of which energy absorbing zones are located. All body panels are made of high-strength steel that has a corrosion-resistant coating. Thanks to the successful aerodynamic form, the fuel consumption of the car has significantly decreased, as well as the wind noise during the ride.
Recall that until 2005, under the hood“Toyota Hilux” was installed only one version of the engine - 102-horsepower diesel "aspirated". A year later, the engine line was replenished with a three-liter power unit equipped with a turbine and capable of developing 171 “horses”. This version was available only for those pickups that had four-door cabs. The first motor functioned in conjunction with a manual gearbox in five stages. As for the second installation, it could also be completed with an “automatic” on four gears.
Designers have upgraded previously usedturbine unit for the new generation. The engine has a volume of 2.5 liters. As for power, it reaches 120 horsepower. These are the engines that will be installed on most new Toyota Hilux vehicles, regardless of the type of drive. The maximum speed that the car can develop will be 165 km / h. At the same time, the fuel consumption of a car with a maximum engine version and a five-seater cabin according to passport data will be 8.3 liters per hundred kilometers in the combined cycle. The system became the real highlight of the car, thanks to which the oil in it can be changed after thirty thousand kilometers. The maximum complete set of the car will include natural leather upholstery, advanced electronics, the most powerful engine option and alloy wheels. In this case, the designation SR-X will be added to the name of the modification.
