Our Third Icon
Arrives

Welcoming our newest Off Road Icon to the team, we are pleased to present the very popular Toyota HiLux. In particular, the fifth generation HiLux was chosen, which was the last HiLux to be designed with live axle front suspension.September 1988 marked the introduction of the fifth generation HiLux with revised mechanicals built for power, sturdiness and comfort. The HiLux has earned a reputation as one of the world’s most trusted and reliable commercial vehicles.

This model was produced with a longer wheelbase option, its one-piece cargo-box walls eliminated the rust-prone seams that were found in earlier models. It received a minor facelift in 1991 which included a grille change and the new Toyota emblem that had been recently adopted.
