The All-New BEV Toyota Hilux

THE “INVINCIBLE” TOYOTA HILUX GOES FULLY ELECTRIC

The introduction of battery electric power is a breakthrough innovation for the Toyota Hilux, achieved without sacrificing any of the model’s renowned Quality, Durability and Reliability.

It will have particular appeal to fleet customers seeking a pick-up that combines zero emission performance with everyday practicality, uncompromised QDR and off-road capability.  It retains the fundamental strength of Hilux’s signature body-on-frame construction and is engineered for off-road performance, including specific measures to protect the battery from damage or water ingress. Notably the wading depth is equal to the current ICE model.

The Hilux BEV further benefits from a Multi-Terrain Select system that adapts vehicle performance to suit different off-road terrains using brake and torque control, equivalent to driving in L4 range in a conventionally powered vehicle.

The powertrain features a 59.2 kWh lithium-ion battery and front and rear eAxles providing permanent all-wheel drive, with 205 Nm of torque generated at the front and 268.6 at the rear.  Tentative, pre-homologation data indicate approximate figures of 715 kg for the payload, and 1,600 kg for the towing capacity, with a WLTP driving range of approximately 240 km. Toyota has targeted best-in-class charging capabilities that will minimise vehicle down-time.
