The New Toyota Hilux Is An EV

The ninth-generation Toyota Hilux pickup truck debuted in Thailand, marking a decade since the previous model. Known worldwide for its durability and versatility, the Hilux now includes an electric variant as part of Toyota's “multi-pathway approach.”

Powertrain Options

The Hilux will feature diesel, hydrogen fuel cell, and electric versions. The electric model uses two motors—one on each axle—and a 59.2 kWh battery pack, delivering a combined 193 horsepower (144 kW). Torque output is 151 lb-ft (205 Nm) at the front and 198 lb-ft (269 Nm) at the rear.

Configurations and Market Availability

This model comes in single- and double-cab body styles, but only the double-cab will be offered in European markets due to sales considerations.

Capabilities and Range

Toyota says the new Hilux BEV will be able to go roughly 150 miles (240 kilometers) on a full charge, based on the WLTP cycle.

Toyota continues pushing electric and alternative fuel technologies as part of its commitment to diverse powertrain solutions.

Summary: Toyota's new Hilux pickup embraces electrification with a robust EV model alongside hydrogen fuel cell and diesel options, maintaining strong utility for global markets.
