2023 Toyota Hilux

A hard-working all-rounder for Sunshine Coast tradies, contractors and rural operators who need five-seat flexibility, strong load-carrying ability and genuine 4x4 capability for demanding weekdays and adventurous weekends.

Toyotas proven 2.8L four-cylinder turbo-diesel produces a strong 150kW and 500Nm, giving the HiLux excellent low-down pulling power. Matched to a 6-speed automatic, its well suited to loaded workdays, highway overtaking, steep Hinterland roads and towing substantial equipment.

The Dual Cab layout gives you comfortable seating for five while the cab-chassis configuration provides a versatile foundation for a fitted tray, toolboxes and specialised work equipment. Factory payload is 1,065kg before the weight of the tray and accessories, making it a serious platform for everyday commercial use.

Whether youre hauling machinery, a loaded work trailer, caravan, boat or camper, the 4x4 HiLux SR automatic is rated to tow up to an impressive 3,500kg braked. Trailer Sway Control adds extra reassurance when theres significant weight behind you, making this HiLux equally useful for business and weekends away.

Selectable high- and low-range four-wheel drive gives the SR genuine capability when worksites become muddy or the road turns rough. A locking rear differential helps maximise traction across loose and uneven surfaces, while approximately 216mm of ground clearance and a 700mm wading depth further strengthen its credentials away from sealed roads.

The SR combines workhorse durability with useful modern technology, including an 8-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivity and a reversing camera. Toyota Safety Sense brings Pre-Collision Safety, Active Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert and Road Sign Assist, while seven airbags add further confidence during long working days.
