Product Overview

The 2020 Hilux facelift combines design updates with the addition of a powerful 2.8-litre diesel powertrain as well as improvements to on- and off-road performance with greater comfort.

Hilux's 1 tonne payload and 3.5 tonne towing capability are now expanded to all 4-wheel drive body types (Single, Extra, and Double Cabs). To improve Hilux's already industry-leading off-road capabilities, the new Hilux incorporates a new electronic function replicating the effects of a mechanical LSD found on 2WD models, lowers engine idle speed from 850 to 680 rpm, an updated VSC system, and a new tire angle monitor.

On the outside, the new exterior is bolder, including newly-designed front and rear LED light clusters. Inside, the new 8-inch infotainment screen adopts mechanical buttons and dials for enhanced operability under all driving conditions. Moreover smart entry and push-button start, satellite navigation, automatic A/C, front and rear parking sensors, and a 9-speaker JBL Premium Sound System with an 800W 8-channel amplifier are all available.

A new, top-of-the-line "Invinciable" trim offers bespoke styling and premium equipment without compromise to the capabilities and legendary quality, durability, and reliability that have made Hilux an icon from urban to the harshest environments.

Reviewers from autocar have found:

A new 201bhp 2.8-litre four-cylinder turbo diesel engine is now being offered. Chunky-looking exterior styling revisions have been made to top-of-the-line Invincible X double-cab Hiluxes. New variable-assistance hydraulic power steering set-up intended to make handling more precise at speed.

Pros

Lots of fun to drive
Lots of standard equipment
Good-sized back seats

Cons

Tough to drive

Reviewer score 65% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

The 2.4-litre four-cylinder diesel is gutsy enough in isolation, but the 2.8- litre diesel is the one to go for if you're used to punchy power delivery. All models receive Aux in and USB ports, along with Bluetooth connectivity. Icon and Invincible versions include a DAB radio, while Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are also now available. There’s better storage in the Hilux than in some rival pick-ups.

Pros

Comfortable to sit in
Good standard equipment
Decent handling

Cons

Fidgety suspension
No automatic gearbox

Reviewer score 72% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from carmagazine have found:

The new 2.8-litre Bi-Turbo engine runs it very close to the new Ford Ranger. Off-road, within its apparently high limits, the Hilux is basically unflappable. The design is more modern life than working life, yet retains substantive ease of use – with chunky controls and a good balance between physical buttons and touchscreen activity. It's a very convincing, very convincing package.

Pros

Excellent off-road performance
Lots of standard equipment
Excellent rear-axle articulation

Cons

Nothing in particular
