120 Series |
Here's a quick comparison between the current 150 series Toyota Land Cruiser Prado specifications and the latest Toyota Hilux. We're looking at the Hilux 4x4 dual cab utiltiy or pickup truck because this is a very flexible car. Not only can it carry 5 people but lots of gear to go with it. However in our case an open tray utility or truck is not the best fit however it does provide carrying options that we wouldn't really consider. Besides we've been ferried around in quite a few over the years. Pricing for the top range 4x4 Hilux dual cab SR5 is so close to the standard Landcruiser Prado that it is worth a look based on that. The Hilux is arguably the best utility for most parts of
the world. The Hilux formula has been around for decades and everyone
including the UK Top Gear team believe it is almost indestructible. |
The Hilux specifications here are for the MY2010 4x4 dual cab SR/SR5 version. Just remember there are so many variants the same car that it would be a challenge to do it for one country yet alone for the entire world! The current series of Hilux utilities or pickup trucks except for the 4 cylinder models are genuinely decent cars. Sure by comparison to the Prado it is 'noisy' and has a tough but cheaper interior look and feel and has stiff suspension and reduced handling but apart from that goes quite well. Remember this is relative since it we are comparing against the Prado. Performance of both the diesel and petrol are what feels like decades ahead of any prior version of the Hilux. It is still a commercial vehicle and apart from performance it does show. As for its competitors stay tuned for some more comparisons over the next few months. Note that you should always check with your local
dealer for correct and up to date specifications and pricing. |
