Space is the best part of my Toyota Hilux. So lucky for me that I bought the single cab version because my single cab version has a larger truck bed than my friend’s double cab version! Very good for me to load cargos.
Cons
Engine performance is not as good as its rivals. I can clearly feel the slower and weaker power delivery than my last pickup - Mitsubishi Triton.
Space
Perfect. I buy it for its huge space. Lots
of storage room can be easily found inside the cabin and the boot space is big.
The surprising thing is that I can trip up the rear seats to load more cargos
underneath!
Power
I know it is already enough for basic
needs. But the power delivery is too bad though. Compared with my last pickup –
Mitsubishi Triton, the Toyota Hilux has a low engine output.
Ride & Handling
The Hilux's steering is on the heavier end
of the scale. Steering response is predictable.
Fuel Economy
It returns me a fuel economy around
8.5-litre / 100 km. Acceptable.
Comfort
Engine noise of Toyota Hilux is actually a
bit loud. I hope Toyota could fix this problem. As for seats comfort, it is
enough for daily use. But I think my Triton is more comfortable.
Exterior
If you like it, you like it. If you don’t,
you don’t. I am good with Toyota Hilux’s exterior, from my opinion, it is
good-looking. But I am not buying cars for their exterior but the practicality.
Interior
To me, Toyota Hilux’s interior is very practical
as it features a number of cubby holes to store various small items.
